javascript nested array

Question

Hi I want to use nested arrays in my javascript function but it doesn't work. Here is my function:

var arr = [];

function test(id, value){
   arr.push(new Array("id" = id, "value" = value));
}

so as you find out I want to create something like this:

arr[0][id = "example0", value = "value0"];
arr[1][id = "example1", value = "value1"];
arr[2][id = "example2", value = "value2"];
...

Because new Array("id" = id, "value" = value) is not an array.

You want an array holding an object.

arr.push({"id":id, "value":value});

Read values

console.log(arr[0].id);
