in cfml you access the first element with index 1. how can you use "1 based" indexing in javascript?!? you would force everyone to remember to start at index 1 whenever they used code from this plugin. that would be ridiculous.
Chris is on the right path. ----- Original Message ---- From: Christopher Jordan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, May 1, 2007 8:48:14 PM Subject: [jQuery] Re: CFJS plugin Andy, It appears that Randy Anderson (LeftCorner.com) chose to start his Arrays at index 1 instead of 0. I can see the logic behind it: wanting to keep things behaving as much like ColdFusion as possible. However, I disagree with this choice. I'd rather each language deal with arrays the way they were designed. When sending JSON encoded data back from ColdFusion, arrays are converted from "1 based" to "0 based". I think this is the right thing to do... but folks are welcome to disagree. :o) I'll be looking through the rest of the functions to see that they are also returning arrays whose indexes start with zero.
