len(rereplace(mystring,"[^\\]","","ALL")) You may not need the 2nd \ in the regex... you didn't need to in a [] collection in CF5 ... not sure off the top of my head if that changed in cfmx.
Original Message ----------------------- Hi, I need to check my URLDecode(dir) for the number of occurences of the "\" So for example, URLDecode(dir) is equal to D:\mywork\temp\dir and then add the check into my <cfif statement. Below is what I have so far. I need to add another check on the <cfif statement to see if two or more "\" appear in the URLDecode(dir) <cfif FindNoCase(URLDecode(dir),SESSION.DisplayShowMe)> ....badda bing...badda boom.... </cfif> Thanks ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
