Question

if i write:

function myindex(name){
var cut_point = name.lastIndexOf('_')+1;
return name.substring(cut_point);
}
...
var ind = myindex(some_id);    
var data_users = {};
var $data_users = $(data_users);
$data_users.prop('user_'+ind,{this.id:$(this).val()});

were this.id = ‘login'( from <\input type=”text” id=”login”> value=”<\?=$user->Login ?>”/>) it will be wrong. but i neeed:

data_users = {
user_3: {
login: Rocsana
}
}

for example, if I write so:

$data_users.prop(this.id,$(this).val());

then key setting correct:

data_users = {login: “Rocsana”}

but i need this in object ‘user_3’. please help.

p.s. I need to track every change in fields linked to the user, adding them (changes) in the object and then the changes I am sending ajax in php, using json. for example

data_users {user_3 {login: Rocsana, role: Admin, e-mail:
[e-mail]}, user_2 {…}}

keys “login”, “role”, … identical to the fields of the table “Users”. it’s easier to make a database query “UPDATE”. just parse the object and received the names of the fields that need to update.

With what your asking, you dont need to use JQuery for the creation and addition of the your issue. Using native JS would be easier anyway. Example below…

// Make the data_users object
var data_users = {};

// Creates the property "test" on the data_users object
// Add it this way and you can reference it like "data_users.test"
data_users['test'] = {};


// Add a key/value pair (object) to data_users.test
    // You can put this  below line in a $.each or for loop and iterate through
    // your jquery elements and add them all the the data_users.test object this way.
data_users.test[this.id] = $(this).val();
/*
    Example:   data_users.test["SOMEID"] = "SOMEVALUE";
    Reference: data_users.test.SOMEID would return the string "SOMEVALUE"
*/
