There are a few options. JSON offers good support for both CF and JavaScript (albeit not in a single library). Neuromancer is pretty feature rich and offers all the connectivity you might need (its a tad on the complex side for my tastes, but correspondingly more powerful than many options). WDDX is old and really needs to be updated, but it does pretty much everything a growing AJAX app needs. Remember however that all of these essentially boil down to a single problem solved: passing structured data (javascript objects, complex structs, etc) over a text-only transport (http). ALL of them provide a method to convert complicated stuff to text and back again. I strongly suggest that you design your system in such a way as to hide and abstract the transport mechanism as much as possible. You should, in other words, be able to switch from JSON to WDDX with little problem - both do (essentially) the same thing so why should there be any application dependencies on them beyond the transfer of data?
