Javascript not creating object

Question

I am attempting to define an array of objects, each of which contains an object within text in javascript. I have the following code

testState={id : 'blahdu3', 
states:  [{ 
    simulation : {
        num_devices: 14,
        num_networks: 6,
        simulation_name: 'Jeffs sim',
        id : 'blahdu3',
        config_map : {
            'Partition1': {
                'networka' : { 'devicea' : '1',  '[email protected]': '2', '[email protected]':'3'},
                'networkb' : { 'deviced': '4', 'devicee': '5'},
            },
            'Partition2':{ 
                'networkc' :{ 'devicef': '6', '[email protected]' : '7',  '[email protected]': '8'},
                'networkd' :{'[email protected]':'9', '[email protected]': '10'},
                'networkTest' :{},
            },
            'Partition3':{ 
                'networke' : { 'devicek':'11'} 
            },
            'freelist' : {'devicew': '13', 'evicex' : '14'}
        }
    }, 
    timestamp: '2015-01-012:44:00',
 }]
}

The problem is that when I attempt to call this "configMap" with states[i].simulation.configMap; I am told that the configMap is a null object. Can anyone clarify what's going on here for me? Thanks a ton for the help!

You should call states[i].simulation.config_map not states[i].simulation.configMap — Oleksandr T.

Check for testState.states[i].simulation.config_map instead of testState.states[i].simulation.configMap

use this for first element

testState.states[0].simulation.config_map;

or

testState.states[i].simulation.config_map;
