Here is another solution I just came up with which I think is a little more
elegent + efficient if neccessary; it removes all blank elements before
looping the array:
<cfscript>
function RemoveEmptyArrayElements(a_array)
{
var a_fixer = ArrayNew(1);
a_fixer[2] = "";
a_array.RemoveAll(a_fixer);
}
</cfscript>
<cfset CiteDataArr = RemoveEmptyArrayElements(CiteDataArr)>
<cfloop from="1" to="#ArrayLen(CiteDataArr)#" index="i">
....
