ok that may be it. i have trinmed and lcased every thing, stripped out the html et.
one array is populated from oracle, the other from mysql. weeks ago i had to put <cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="UTF-8"> in my cfc due to charecters coming in with odd junk. my reg cf comparison shows my data to be equal. just not using the .equals thingy i kinda dont trust it now...
