jquery array of objects

Question

Hi I am new to jquery

var sales = [{CategoryName="colddrink",ProductName="coke", SaleMonth="Feb ",    CategoryId=1},
{ CategoryName="colddrink",ProductName="pepsi" ,SaleMonth="Feb ", CategoryId=1}     {CategoryName="Snacks", ProductName="nuts",SaleMonth="Dec", CategoryId=32},
         {CategoryName="colddrink",ProductName="pepsi", SaleMonth="Mar ", CategoryId=1},
         {CategoryName="Snacks",ProductName="popcorn", SaleMonth="Feb ", CategoryId=32}]

and that is what I am looking for

var sales = { "colddrink" :[{ProductName="coke", SaleMonth="Feb ", CategoryId=1},
            {ProductName="pepsi" ,SaleMonth="Feb ", CategoryId=1},
            {ProductName="pepsi", SaleMonth="Mar ", CategoryId=1}],

    "Snacks"  :[{ProductName="nuts",SaleMonth="Dec", CategoryId=32},
            {ProductName="popcorn", SaleMonth="Feb ", CategoryId=32}]
    }

Is it possible in jquery?

This is not JSON. This is Object Literal syntax; see stackoverflow.com/questions/8294088/javascript-object-vs-json — Matt

Nested objects?

var sales = {
    cooldrink : {
        productname: 'coke',
        salemonth: 'feb'
    },
    snacks: {
        productname: 'nuts',
        salemonth: 'dec'
    }
};

alert(sales.cooldrink.productname); //coke

It's not really jQuery, though jQuery use JSON most of the time, but this one is simply JSON, an object in Javascript. Just create a function which can sort things out. In fact, you don't need any jQuery at all for this type of job.

There are important differences between JSON and JavaScript objects (namely Object literal syntax); stackoverflow.com/questions/8294088/javascript-object-vs-json
