Javascript Object - prepend object to existing object

Question

I have this javascript objects.

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
var jsObject1 = {'Mr.':'1','Mrs.':'2','Ms.':'3'} 
</script>

I want to add this javascript object to the beginning of the jsObject variable:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
var jsObject2 = {'Dr.':'4','Sr.':'5','Jr.':'6'} 
</script>

Is there a javascript function, or perhaps jquery method for doing that?

What does "beginning of the variable" mean? JavaScript objects are unordered. There is no beginning. — user2736012, Oct 01 '13 at 05:29

There are various utility methods available to you that will do this, such as jQuery's extend() function. Or you could write your own function to achieve this as described here:
