Hold the horses!
I changed the join from:
specialIDList.join();
to:
var specialIDList = specialIDList.join();
and it worked!
I think the var, specialIDList, was not available to the ajax function
since it was being recreated
in the .each loop.
So, now do I have to loop over the multiple variables in specialIDList on
the server side with CF
in order to break the string into individual arguments?
