Are you specifying the return type in your function call or are you pulling it out of the default WDDX Packet?
Your output looks like its being returned as javascript escaped JSON. For example, the following using returntype=json, yields the correct raw JSON array: URL: http://localhost/tests/jsonTest.cfc?method=giveMeJson&returnformat=json Component: component displayname="JSONTest" output="false"{ remote array function giveMeJson(){ var a = arrayNew(1); arrayAppend(a,"Miami Area Geriatric Education Center"); arrayAppend(a,"Miami Children's Hospital"); arrayAppend(a,"Miami Research Associates"); arrayAppend(a,"Miami University (Oxford, Ohio)"); arrayAppend(a,"Miami Valley Hospital"); arrayAppend(a,"Miami, FL-546"); arrayAppend(a,"University of MiamiJackson Health System"); return a; } } Result (which is exactly what should be returned by the request): ["Miami Area Geriatric Education Center","Miami Children's Hospital","Miami Research Associates","Miami University (Oxford, Ohio)","Miami Valley Hospital","Miami, FL-546","University of MiamiJackson Health System"] Is the string your provided the response from Firebug, an echo of the var in javascript or what you see as the browser source when you navigate directly to it? If so, are you using JQuerys native .getJSON() method? That should give you an immediately workable JS array.
