Possible Duplicate: javascript object, access variable property name? Trying to get more advanced in my JS... I have a custom object: ``` Object myObject = new Object(); myObject.thing = anythingHere; ``` I would like to be able to retrieve a custom objects property by passing in a string... eg: ``` var propertyString = 'thing'; alert(myObject.propertyString); ``` I can't quite figure that out. I've looked at a number of tutorials for custom objects - but nothing shows how to get properties that I don't know the names of...
