Add new element to an existing object

jQuery syntax mentioned above by Danilo Valente is not working. It should be as following-

$.extend(myFunction,{
    bookName:'mybook',
    bookdesc: 'new'
});

Use this:

myFunction.bookName = 'mybook';
myFunction.bookdesc = 'new';

Or, if you are using jQuery:

$(myFunction).extend({
    bookName:'mybook',
    bookdesc: 'new'
});

The push method is wrong because it belongs to the Array.prototype object.

To create a named object, try this:

var myObj = function(){
    this.property = 'foo';
    this.bar = function(){
    }
}
myObj.prototype.objProp = true;
var newObj = new myObj();

Just do myFunction.foo = "bar" and it will add it. myFunction is the name of the object in this case.
