Cloning the object in JavaScript [duplicate]

Answer 1

Try this with jQuery:

var parent = {};
                parent["Task name"] = "Task " + ++x;
                parent["Start time"] = "01/03/2013";
                parent["End time"] = "01/08/2013";
                parent["Duration"] = "5 days";
                parent["Status"] = Math.round(Math.random() * 100);
var newObj = jQuery.extend(true, {}, parent);
