Look closer at the code:
<CFIF NOT Len(Trim(Form.firstname))> will return FALSE if the string has a
length greater than 0.
<CFIF Len(Trim(Form.firstname)) GT 0> will return TRUE if the string has a
length greater than 0.
To compare these two statements you need to drop the "NOT" operator from the
first one :)
It will work and does work quite nicely.
Happy Coding,
Brett Suwyn
