I have a simple javascript object with several unknown properties containing a value. The problem is that i don't really know the name of the field since it is variable. How can I access this unknown property?

For better understanding I have a simple object like following:

var a = { cat : "meow", dog : "woof"};

I need to read the name and the value of the different properties. I was thinking about something like the following: a.getField(0).name.

You can do somethine like this:

for (var member in a) {
    alert('Name: ' + member);
    alert('Value: ' + a[member]);
}

You could access the properties by name:

for (var key in a) {
    var value = a[key];
}

Demo.
