Loop - Add Items to Array

[jjmusicpro]

I have a Loop that I am doing for records in a DB, and I needed to add them to an array, but can figure out how to get this structure down for this array...

 

here is the array format...

I know how to add an item to a single array like var mydata = ['data','data','data'],

But dont know how to do these multi dimentional ones like this.

 

var myData = [

        ['3m Co',71.72,0.02,0.03,'9/1 12:00am'],

        ['Alcoa Inc',29.01,0.42,1.47,'9/1 12:00am'],

        ['Altria Group Inc',83.81,0.28,0.34,'9/1 12:00am']

    ];

 

<javascript>
<?
DB CONNECTION....
LOOP
if dbinfo = xx 
{
add info to array
}
else
{
//dont add to array
}
END LOOP
?>.</javascript>

This is prolly the wrong forum for javascript help, but...

 

Adding elements to a js array goes like this:

 

myData[myData.length] = SOME_VALUE;

So that will format the array like the example is?

 

I always used the push method, but it ended up maing the array like this ['','','',''] not like this[[],[],[],[],[],[]]

Regardless of whether you use push or the brackets, you need to put the new data into an array itself, then add that array as a new element of your main array.

So this is how i would do it?

 

I would have 2 arrays, 1 that gets my data, then i add that data to the main array?

 

arry1 = ['','','','','','']

Then I add array1 into array 2?
