Hi:

    I build an array in JS that can be from 9 elements thru to nearly 1500 
elements

    I also build a 2-property object to be placed in each of these elements:

    The object to be saved in the array is :

      nuobj = {vrbl1: "vrbl1value", vrbl2: "vrbl2value" }

      // to add this object to this (possibly very big) array should I use 
the 'push' method :
      anames.push(nuobj) ;

      // or should I use direct array assignment
      anames[anames.length] = nuobj ;

    or, is there another preferred way to do this quickly ?

Thank you.
