Question

I want to get the index of an array by position. Is this possible? For example, I want the following function to print:

var args = new Array();
args["name"] = "john";
args["surname"] = "smith";

printPerson(args);
function printPerson(args) {

    for(var i = 0; i < args.count; i++) {
        ???
    }
}

“name:john surname:smith”

(ie name & surname should not be hardcoded inside function)

EDIT
The order they printed out is not important!

Answer 1

Not tested:

for(var i in args)
   alert(i + ":" + args[i]);

EDIT:

If order matters, you could make an array of objects.. Like

args[0] = { key: 'name', value: 'john' };
args[1] = { key: 'name', value: 'mike' };

for(var i = 0; i < args.length; i++)
  alert(args[i].key + ":" + args[i].value);

Or something..
