Yes, it's in the right direction, but it does need work.

BTW, foreach is available, but you can't use it on arrays (HAHAHAHA!)

it's one of the reasons I use objects in JS most of the time instead of  
arrays:

for(key in obj)
{
    var elem = obj[key];
    /* use elem */
}

of course, I'd only recommend this on objects you have used as arrays.   
What I mean by that is, you don't have any methods or prototypes, because  
those will also be iterated.
