Looks to me like it's just not the right syntax:
var holidayPackages = new Array("Explorer 60", "GetAway Plus", "Discovery",
"GetAway 300");
that will give you a 1d array... if you want a 2d array, you have to
manually insert the sub-array ...
var holidayPackages = new Array();
var Explorer60 = new Array("...","...");
holidayPackages[1] = Explorer60;
I'll bet you don't actually want an array here tho -- I'll bet you want a
structure, which is done in JS with new Object();
var holidayPackages = new Object();
holidayPackages["Explorer 60"] = new Object();
holidayPackages["Explorer 60"].dates = new Array("blah","...");
I'll bet there's an easier solution, however, using either wddx
<script language="javascript">
function whatever() {
var holidayPackages = null;
<cfwddx action="cfml2js" input="#mystruct#"
toplevelvariable="holidayPackages">
... etc...
}
</script>
Or in failing that, check out the open-source API I published recently at
http://www.turnkey.to/tapi -- look for the function cf_dom/js.object -- it
does what cfwddx action="cfml2js" does but it does it better in several
ways.
