I'm returning data back from a database and want to populate
variables the same way as columns are named. I have this working
fine (though any suggested improvements are welcome), but when the
values are undefined, in this case at least, I'd like to make the
variable have a '' (empty quotes) instead for repopulating form
fields. I'm not sure how to test for undefined.
Here's the code:
<cfset the_db = StructNew()>
<cfoutput query="#the_db_name#">
<cfloop list="#evaluate('#the_db_name#.columnlist')#" index="col">
<cfset the_db_info[col] =
evaluate('#the_db_name#[col][currentRow]')>
<!--- attempting to make undefined an empty string --->
<cfif the_db_info[col] EQ undefined>
<cfset the_db_info[col] = ''>
</cfif>
#col#:#the_db_info[col]#<br>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
