The server returns a string which I parse. It becomes an array of 
"simple" objects eg.
{
   "id":1,
   "colour": "#fff",
   "width": 320,
   "height":240
}

To find an object with a specific "id" I use a for loop on the array. 
This is ok but now the arrays I'm getting contain 10s of objects. What 
better way can I use to find a specific object?
