JS user-defined properties of Objects

[awebguynow]

I'm actually trying to analyze the Google Suggest code
as dissected by C. Justus, eyalamir, alacrity and others.

This could be a follow-up to my unanswered posting:
Topic: "Google Suggest, advanced JS, DHTML" other keywords: okuh

But my ? this time is specific: Can properties of Objects be created
on the fly ?
Can they be user-defined (UD) and brought into existence, just by an
assignment ?

Ex:
M.completeDiv = _completeDiv;
or
var b = fr.completeDiv;
b.completeStrings = cs;
//b.displayStrings = ds;
//b.prefixStrings = pr;

I would say my level of knowledge is intermediate, but would like to
learn more.
If there are references online about this, please direct me to them.
Thanks.

Yes.

That would depend on what you consider a 'user' in this context.
Executing javascript code can add properties to JS object with
assignments.

You are being very optimistic.
