you're still overlooking the client/server issue.
when you create your structure, you're doing it on the server. that
has nothing to do with the client until you make it have somethign to
do with the client.
e.g.
<cfset students = structNew() />
<cfset students.name = "Fred" />
<script type="text/javascript">
var studentName = "<cfoutput>#students.name#</cfoutput>";
alert(studentName);
</script>
