Access non-numeric Object properties by index?

Question

If I have an array like this:

var arr = ['one','two','three']; 

I can access different parts by doing this:

console.log(arr[1]); 

How can I access object properties by their order rather than by key?

Example:

var obj = {     'something' : 'awesome',     'evenmore'  : 'crazy' }, jbo = {     'evenmore'  : 'crazy',     'something' : 'awesome' }; 

How would I get the first property for each object–"something" from obj and "evenmore" from jbo–without explicitly using the property name?

Now, a few of you seem to think I'm after something like:

console.log(obj['something']); 

This is not the case, I'm specifically looking to target the index, just like the first example - if it's possible.

"I'm specifically looking to target the index, just like the first example - if it's possible."

No, it isn't possible.

The closest you can get is to get an Array of the object's keys, and use that:

var keys = Object.keys( obj ); 

...but there's no guarantee that the keys will be returned in the order you defined. So it could end up looking like:

keys[ 0 ];  // 'evenmore' keys[ 1 ];  // 'something'
