It s called on Object Literal  I m not sure what you want your structure to be  but according to what you have above   where you put the values in variables try this   var formObject      formObject                       firstName   firstName   lastName   lastName                     phoneNumber   phone                     address   address                        Although this seems to make more sense  Why do you have an array in the above literal     var formObject        firstName  firstName

Try this to see how you can create a object from strings   var firstName    xx   var lastName     xy   var phone        xz   var adress       x1   var obj     firstName  firstName   lastName  lastName   phone  phone   address  adress   console log obj

You re referencing a DOM element when doing something like     lastName     That s an element with id attribute  lastName    Why do that   You want to reference the value stored in a local variable  completely unrelated   Try this  assuming the assignment to formObject is in the same scope as the variable declarations  -  var formObject         formObject                          firstName firstName      no need to quote variable names             lastName lastName                                  phoneNumber phoneNumber              address address                      This seems very odd though  you re creating an object  formObject  that contains a member called  formObject  that contains an array of objects

if you need double quoted JSON use JSON stringify  object   var  items       firstName   lastName  phoneNumber  address    var obj       items each function         obj this id      this  val        var json  JSON stringify  obj     DEMO  http   jsfiddle net vANKa 1

var formValues         firstName      firstName   val        lastName      lastName   val        phone      phoneNumber   val        address      address   val        Note this will contain the values of the elements at the point in time the object literal was interpreted  not when the properties of the object are accessed  You d need to write a getter for that
