Why don't you convert them to numbers???
<cfif IsNumeric(form.qty1) and IsNumeric(form.unitcost1)>
<tr>
<cfset form.totalcost = val(form.qty1) * val(form.unitcost1)>
<td><input name="unitcost" value="<cfoutput>#form.unitcost1#</cfoutput>
</tr>
</cfif>
Incidently, watch your tag nesting.....
In your code you have an overlaping <Cfif> and <tr> if the <Cfif> fails
you'll windup with a <tr> floating around on its own.
