Edit javascript array without reloading the page

I have a literal array that is loaded when the page loads... See below:

<script type="text/javascript">
var members = [
    {
       name:"Alan Lim",
       id:"54700f06-a199-102c-8976-b1732b7ffc74",
       positions:[
          {
             id:"4cdeb2a2-8897-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          }
       ]
    },
    {
       name:"Ben Sinclair",
       id:"ed34b5a4-9b2f-102c-8475-9e610b13400a",
       conflict:"true",
       positions:[
          {
             id:"f00c2128-8895-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          },
          {
             id:"f00c68ea-8895-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          },
          {
             id:"4cde6824-8897-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          },
          {
             id:"4cde9ea2-8897-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          }
       ],
       locations:[
          {
             id:"88fb5f94-aaa6-102c-a4fa-1f05bca0eec6"
          },
          {
             id:"930555b0-a251-102c-a245-1559817ce81a"
          }
       ]
    },
    {
       n开发者_开发百科ame:"Debbie Wright",
       id:"fa49307a-9cfb-102d-bd08-842c500d506d"
    }
]
</script>

Is there anyway to edit the array without reloading the page? For example, I want to add conflict:"true" to Alan Lim...

E.g:

Change this:

    {
       name:"Alan Lim",
       id:"54700f06-a199-102c-8976-b1732b7ffc74",
       positions:[
          {
             id:"4cdeb2a2-8897-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          }
       ]
    },

To this:

    {
       name:"Alan Lim",
       id:"54700f06-a199-102c-8976-b1732b7ffc74",
       conflict:"true",
       positions:[
          {
             id:"4cdeb2a2-8897-102d-80ee-95364de284f0"
          }
       ]
    },

Trust that makes sense :) The reason for this is because I use other JavaScript to pull information from this array. When I make a change with the other JavaScript I want to add and subtract to this array to reflect the changes...

You can loop through to find the member you want (by name it seems given the question) then edit it, like this:

for(var i=0; i<members.length; i++) {
  if(members[i].name == "Alan Lim")
    members[i].conflict = "true";
}

You can give it a try here, or make it a bit more generic like this:

function setProp(name, prop, value) {
  for(var i=0; i<members.length; i++) {
    if(members[i].name == name)
       members[i][prop] = value;
  }
}

Since your array is numerically indexed, Can you not just do:

members[0]['conflict'] = "true";
