javascript multidimensional array with tags

Question

lets say i want an array with a tag name so when i want a specific row i can call it with its tag name, ie myArray['tag_one'][2] for the tag_one tag i want the 3rd element.

So is there a way i can achieve this?

something like :

var myArray=[
        tag_one=[1,2,3],
        tag_two=[11,22,33],
        tag_three=[111,222,333]
]

excuse my bad English, thx in advanced

You can use an object literal:

var myObject = {
    tag_one: [1,2,3],
    tag_two: [11,22,33],
    tag_three: [111,222,333]
}; 

// Using bracket notation:
alert(myObject["tag_one"][0]);  //-> 1

// Using dot notation:
alert(myObject.tag_two[0]);  //-> 11
