Cleanest format for writing javascript objects

Question

What is the cleanest format for writing javascript objects?

Currently I write mine in the following format

if (Namespace1 == null) var Namespace1 = {};
i         


        

Answer 1

I use the following function:

jQuery.namespace = function() {
    var a = arguments, o = null, i, j, d;
    for (i=0; i

Then I can use this function to create a namespace just like this:

$.namespace("jQuery.namespace1");

Once I've created the namespace I can declare functions or whatever you want inside it:

a function:

$.namespace1.asyncRequest = function() {
    [function body]
};

a constant:

$.namespace1.OFFSET = 10;

an object:

$.namespace1.request = { requestId: 5, protocol: 'JSON' };

I think it's simple and elegant :-)
