Javascript remoting method call returning empty array
Hello,
I am trying to write a simple Apex class with a very simple method that returns a list that I can iterate over in my Javascript without having to resort to using <apex:repeat> and generating a very large document. Unfortunately, I find the documentation on this feature to be confusing and my Javascript is getting an empty array despite my method returning a non-empty array.
Here is my Apex code:

Unfortunately, I find the documentation on this feature to be confusing and my Javascript is getting an empty array despite my method returning a non-empty array.
Here is my Apex code:
global with sharing class SalesGoalsController { public list<Countries__c> CountryRecords {get; set;} @RemoteAction global static List<Countries__c> getCountryRecords() { List<Countries__c>CountryRecords = [select name, psl_goal__c, ps_goal__c, psl_total_goal__c, ps_total_goal__c from Countries__c]; return CountryRecords; } }Here is my Visualforce page:
<apex:page controller="SalesGoalsController" sidebar="false"> <script type="text/javascript"> Visualforce.remoting.Manager.invokeAction( '{!$RemoteAction.SalesGoalsController.getCountryRecords}', function(result, event){ if (event.status) { console.log(result); } }, {escape: true} ); </script> </apex:page>The console.log() call is just showing an empty array in my web browser console. How do I get the list returned by getCountryRecords() into my javascript? I tried JSON.serialize() and parse() but this still doesn't work.

Nevermind, I just realized the object I'm trying to get a list for is empty in this sandbox! Sorry for the confusion!
