Sure. Here's the JSON string being returned by the server. The only
thing that will need some fiddling is that the year is being returned
as a float. Not sure how to get that displayed as just an integer in
JS.

{"COLUMNS":
["REFERENCEID","AUTHOR","DETAIL","REFYEAR","REFTYPE"],"DATA":[[1,"Chen
& Chen","Chinese Herbs and Recipes, Second Revision",2009.0,1],
[16,"Dana Cat","","",1],[5,"Simon Becker","Chinese Medicine Today",
2008.0,1],[14,"tom cat","",2009.0,1],[4,"Becker, Simon","Chinese
Medicine Today",2009.0,2],[3,"Dana","Dana's Secret Pasta Recipe",
2008.0,5],[15,"bob cat","",2007.0,5]]}
