2d Array Craziness

programming flash

I was hoping someone could help spot my error or help me out. I can’t think!!!

I’ve never actually fooled around with 2d arrays that much. What I need is to access an array and get all the objects inside of it. I actually mocked up a little something to mirror what I want.

ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#000000]**var**[/COLOR] arr:[COLOR=#0000FF]Array[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000FF]name[/COLOR]:[COLOR=#FF0000]"Hat"[/COLOR], price:[COLOR=#FF0000]"34"[/COLOR], [COLOR=#0000FF]url[/COLOR]:[COLOR=#FF0000]"http://www.google.com"[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR],

[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR]

If you put that into an fla and test it you will see it prints out all the objects inside the set index.

Now, what I’ve been having trouble with is being able to push content into that format.

What I have now is
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#0000FF]for[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] i=[COLOR=#000080]0[/COLOR]; i<root.[COLOR=#0000FF]childNodes[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]length[/COLOR]; i++[COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR]

I don’t have any trouble getting the data, but as you can see that it’s pushing each object separately in an array. So it would look like this:

aDetail[[{name:scarf, price:45, url:http://www.google.com}],[{name:scarf, price:45, url:http://www.google.com}]] etc…

Any help? I just need to get all of the objects first like {obj}, {obj}, {obj} and then push them into an array. But, like I said I can’t think!!
