JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:
How can I access the contents of glove box using dot notation and brackets?

Your code so far


// Setup
var myStorage = {
  "car": {
    "inside": {
      "glove box": "maps",
      "passenger seat": "crumbs"
     },
    "outside": {
      "trunk": "jack"
    }
  }
};

var gloveBoxContents = myStorage.car.inside. glove box; // Change this line

myStorage.car.inside["glove box"]

if object property name has spaces use brackets.

Were you able to resolve it? My code is below but it isn’t correct.
’ ``
// Setup`var myStorage = {
“car”: {
“inside”: {
“glove box”: “maps”,
“passenger seat”: “crumbs”
},
“outside”: {
“trunk”: “jack”
}
}
};

var gloveBoxContents = myStorage.car.inside["glove box"]; // Change this line

Any ideas?

My code is the same as yours, and the other suggestions on this thread. It doesn’t seem to be working though.

var gloveBoxContents = myStorage.car.inside["glove box"];

that code passes for me… what browser are you using? what do the tests say?
