This is totally out of my league. I just envisioned a simple way to do this, but I have no idea if it is possible.
I have an array of holding a series of dates
marriedDate = new Array(1951,1,32,1958,13,32,1959,9,19,1982,1,22)
// refering to married, divorced, married, died
// The 32s are place keepers of uncertain dates
I have a function that converts this to a printed date
function datePrint(thisDate) {
document.writeln(thisDate[0]+' '+Month[thisDate[1]]+' '+thisDate[2]);
}
Previously, each date was a seperate 3 element array. Now I'm grouping them together so I can reuse a bunch of JS to deal with all the dates.
The question
Can I pass part of marriedDate to the datePrint function, or do I have to break it apart and pass the pieces and rewrite datePrint to deal with the pieces?
I can do it the latter way, but the code will get messy. It would be a lot cleaner code to do it the first way.
