[thelist] 2-dimensional array in jscript

[Phil Turmel]

In javascript, any array intrinsically supports arrays 
within it... "var x = []" creates an empty one-dimensional 
array, each new element of which can also be an array.  Some 
code:

var x = [];
var tmp;
while (....) // Outer Loop Conditions
   {
   tmp = [];
   while (....) // Inner Loop Conditions
     {
     tmp.push("Content")
     }
   x.push(tmp);
   }

// Read the content back out:
var e,i,j;
for (i=0; i<x.length; i++)
   for (j=0; j<x[i].length; j++)
     {
     e=x[i][j];
     // Do Something with e
     }

Hope this helps.
