Question

I’d like to have an array in javascript that each item contains 2 properties instead of 1, how would that be possible?

The following only adds one property to the item by default:

var headerCellWidths = new Array();
headerCellWidths.push(100);

this enables me access the item using [0][normalCellWidth]

but I’d like to be able to have e.g. [index][normalCellWidth][firstTemplateCellWidth]

e.g. [0][100][25]

e.g. headerCellWidths.add(100, 25);

One solution is to create my own CustomArray obviously which maintains 2 separate array instances but isn’t there a better way?

Thanks,

You can add the entries as objects to the array.
Try this:

 headerCellWidths.push({normalCellWidth:100, firstTemplateCellWidth:25);

You would access the items using:

headerCellWidths[0].normalCellWidth and headerCellWidths[0].firstTemplateCellWidth
