Problem is: Chrome automatically sorts properties of object.
If I have an object like:
var obj = {4: "first", 2: "second", 1: "third"};
then when I do next:
for(var i in obj) {
console.debug(obj[i]);
}
I see next:
third
second
first
but expect:
first
second
third
Never rely on the order of properties. They are unordered and there is no specification that defines in which order properties should be enumerated.
Chrome orders properties with numeric keys numerically, whereas other browsers enumerate them in insertion order. It is implementation dependent.
You should not expect any particular order for keys in for..in
loops. From the MDC docs:
A for...in loop iterates over the properties of an object in an arbitrary order
If you want ordering using numerical keys, use an array.
