here's a thought...
For quick array creation in JS do this:
..
myArray = newArray(#quotedValueList("query.column")#);
..
I wrote this ad-hoc, so the syntax might be a little off, but I believe
that's it.

Subject: Using CF to populate JS variables efficiently
Hey gang.
Working on a little side project, that is very JS-heavy - do some reads from
a DB, create and populate several Javascript arrays based on the DB queries
(using CFLOOP, generally), so that the page, once loaded, doesn't need to go
back to the server for more data.
I'm trying to work up a better way of doing this. Right now, the page (and
it's not even nearly done, just the basics) is around 2100 lines long in the
end (page source), and a large chunk of that is array population lines (i.e.
"arrayname[3][7] = 1;").
I seem to recall seeing a chapter on one CF book some time back on CF and
JS - going back and forth between them - but for the life of me I can't find
such info in Forta's books (either the new editions or the previous
editions).
Any thoughts/recommendations?
