match two arrays or objects in javascript

I have two javascript objects

var category = new Object();

I add some attributes to the object as

category.Hot = "Red";
category.Cold = "Blue";
category.Warm = "Yellow";

I have another object which holds the id, category value and some other attributes

var categorization = [];

categorization = {"id1 : Hot","id2 : Cold","id3 : Hot","id4 : Warm"},

Now I need to map all the items in categorization with their appropriate color in category. I need something like this.

var combinedResult = null;

combinedResult.id1 = {'Hot : Red'}
combinedResult.id2 = {'Cold : Blue'}
combinedResult.id3 = {'Hot : Red'}
combinedResult.id4 = {'Warm : Yellow'}

I'm new to javascript so there may be syntactical errors. I have achieved the same in C# any go ahead tips would be appreciated.

You may do it this way:

$.each(categorization,function(id, val){
    var tempObj = {};
    tempObj[val] = category[val];

    combinedResult[id] = tempObj;
});

Here's sample Fiddle.

Wouldn't something along the lines of the below be easier for you?

var categorization = [];

categorization.push({"Id" : "Hot","colour":"Red"});
categorization.push({"Id" : "Cold","colour":"Blue"});
categorization.push({"Id" : "Warm","colour":"Yellow"});

Then 

categorization[0].Id, categorization[0].colour etc...
