FWIW : that won't work anyway. . with IsDefined("evaluate(FORM['mytest']") you get the same response as Todd's code. . with IsDefined("#evaluate(FORM['mytest']#"), CF evaluates FORM['mytest'] out to its content, which will fail if the variable is not defined. . with IsDefined(evaluate(attributes['fuseaction'])) you get the same as with #'s in the isdefined. As Todd says, he should be using StructKeyExists() to see if mytest is in the struct FORM or Ray's example of <cfif isDefined("form.#mytest#")> Regards Stephen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
