javascriptarrays

Why do I get an "Array not defined" reference error with this code?

What's wrong with this code?

var divarray = document.getElementById("yui-main").getElementsByTagName("div");
var articleHTML = array();
var absHTML;
var keyHTML;
var bodyHTML = array();
var i = 0;
for ( var j in divarray) {
    if(divarray[i].className == "articleBody"){
  alert("found");
  articleHTML = divarray[i];
  break;
 }
 bodyHTML[i] = '';
 if(articleHTML[i].className == "issueMiniFeature"){continue;}
 if(articleHTML[i].className == "abstract"){absHTML = articleHTML[i]; continue;}
 if(articleHTML[i].className == "journalKeywords"){keyHTML = articleHTML[i]; continue;}
 bodyHTML[i] = articleHTML[i];
 i++;
}

This is the error I am getting:

ReferenceError: array is not defined

I am using Google Chrome if it helps any.

Solution

  • It's not php - you should use

    var variable_name = new Array()

    or even better

    var variable_name = []
