Push is far better when you're not sure what the next index of your array is. for example: [87, 2, 369, , , , 42, 53] If i remember correctly .length will return 5, which means if you started adding in items from that point, you'll eventually overwrite other items in the array. Direct access is useful when you are creating the array from scratch, for instance holding the properties of a object. -- Rob Griffiths http://bytespider.eu @bytespider <http://twitter.com/bytespider> https://github.com/bytespider -- To view archived discussions from the original JSMentors Mailman list: http://www.mail-archive.com/jsmentors@jsmentors.com/ To search via a non-Google archive, visit here: http://www.mail-archive.com/jsmentors@googlegroups.com/ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to jsmentors+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com
