ExpandPath gives you a full path and "." in the terms of helper will be
the location of your Application.cfc
What is your disk path for your Application.cfc?
Where are your js files stored (full path)?
Is your Application.cfc in the root of your domain or is it in a folder
off of your domain?
Can you share the XML parameters you have set for the helper?
If you can answer all of the above questions, I can help you figure out
the right settings.
Best,
.Peter
