javascript - JS associative object with duplicate names

Question

ok, so I have an object like:

var myobject = {
   "field_1": "lorem ipsum",
   "field_2": 1,
   "field_2": 2,
   "field_2": 6
};

as you see there are duplicate names in the object, but with different values. If i go through it like (using jQuery):

$.each(myobject, function(key, value)
{
   console.log(key);
   console.log(myobject[key]);
   console.log(myobject[value]);
}

key - returns the correct key
myobject[key] - returns the name for that key
myobject[value] - returns the last elements', with that name, value

meaning for field_2 it will return 6, though it'll print it 3 times, as it repeats 3 times in the object.

My question is how to obtain the correct value for that duplicate named fields and not just the last one's

Thank you

That is not an array that is an object. You'd be better creating a property of the object that is an array and store the different values in there.

var myarray = {
   "field_1": "lorem ipsum",
   "field_array": []
};

myarray.field_array.push(value);

then just loop through that property of the array.
