I have an array I’ve created in JavaScript. The end result comes out to element1,element2,,,element5,element6,,,element9…. etc

Once passed to ColdFusion, it removes the null elements, I end up with element1,element2,element5,element6,element9

I need to maintain these spaces, any ideas? My problem may begin before this, to explain in more detail…

I have a form with 13 elements that are acting as a search/filter type function. I want to ‘post’ with AJAX, in essence, i’m using a button to call a jQuery function and want to pass the fields to a ColdFusion page, then have the results passed back. The JavaScript array may not even be my best option.

Any ideas?
