Get value from object

Question

I am passing a string to a function, which will use this string to create a session storage element like this :

fun("key","value");

function fun(string, data){
  var to_session = {string:data};
  sessionStorage.setItem(string, JSON.stringify(to_session));
}

But in session storage instead of storing it as {"key":"value"} its stored as {"string":"value"}

Where am I going wrong ?

Answer 1

You could do it like this:

function fun(string, data){
  var to_session = {};
  to_session[string] = data;
  sessionStorage.setItem(string, JSON.stringify(to_session));
}
