How do I use a JavaScript hash as an argument in a function?
JS Newb here. 

I'm working with a function, and the documentation for said function says "The argument to the function must be a JavaScript hash where the key is the (database) field to be filtered, and the value is either a string or an array of strings". 

Examples that work for me:

    //New York Knicks fan....
    viz.filter({CitiesILoathe: ['Boston']});
    viz.filter({CitiesILoathe: ['Boston','Miami']});

Either of these snippets work for me, removing said cities from what I see after filter() completes.

Now I want to DIRECTLY pass in a hash which I create/populate earlier. 

Can't figure out how. 

I've tried: 

    var CitiesILoathe= new Object(); //my "hash"
    CitiesILoathe['Boston'] = 1;
    CitiesILoathe['Miami'] = 2;
    viz.filter({CitiesILoathe}); // also tried same thing w/o curly braces

...but no joy. I've been searching thru docs, but my JavaScript vocabulary/intelligence is slow low at this point, I really don't know what I'm looking for. 

Can anyone give me a push in the right direction? Many Thanks!
