Title Body

On page load I am creating two Javascript Objects, objDemo1 and objDemo1Backup where the latter is simply an exact copy of the first. e.g. objDemo1 { sub_1 = { something: 123, somethingElse: 321 }, sub_2 = { something: 456, somethingElse: 654 } } I can modify the values in sub_ as well as add / delete new sub_ 's but the only object I am editing is objDemo1 . i.e. I never change objDemo1Backup I have a reset button that when clicked will reset objDemo1 back to what it was when the page originally loaded (i.e. objDemo1 = objDemo1Backup ). This is where I am having the issue.. How do I set objDemo1 to objDemo1Backup ? I have tried: objDemo1 = objDemo1Backup; and objDemo1 = null; var objDemo1 = objDemo1Backup; ...as well as similar variations but nothing seems to work. Any ideas? Note: I can confirm that at the point of resetting, objDemo1Backup is exactly the same as it was when I created it and objDemo1 has changed. My code is definetly hitting the "reset" functionality, where I've tried the objDemo1 = objDemo1Backup ... I just cannot figure out the syntax to replace the object.
