Hi, I am trying to generate an array but I am getting an unexpected number error via firebug.

here is the code:

var make2 = $('input[name="delete[]"]:checked').val();
var make 3 = make2;
var mantern = [] ;
while ( make3 > 0 ){
var mantern[make3] = $('input[name="delete[]"]:checked').val();
make3--;
}

why is this happening. When I tried the above code and posted it via firebug it gives me output of unexpected number.

I don't understand why it's outputting that?

var make 3 = make2;

Has Javascript suddenly started allowing spaces in variable names?

no that wasn't the problem. There is no space in the real code. For some reason when I type it here there was a space created.

the problem was this var mantern[make3] = I used var so it was creating a new variable instead of using the variable already created that has an array stored in it.
