I've got a compiled application that can be programmed to output ColdFusion code along with its regular output, writing CF templates that later run under CF 5.0. However if any of its regular output contains pound signs, CF throws an error when the template is executed. Both these examples will fail:
<CFSCRIPT> Test = 'SKU # 1716-SY-367'; </CFSCRIPT> Or <CFSET Test = 'SKU # 1716-SY-367'> What I would LIKE to do is use Replace or REReplace or somehow escape the damn pound signs out of the strings more or less like so: <CFSET Test = #REplace("SKU # 1716-SY-367", "#Chr(35)#", "", "ALL")#> -- but it doesn't work. (#Chr(35)# in the REplace function will replace say, DOUBLE pound signs in the string, so at least that works) It is not possible to use the original compiled application to either double up the pound signs or eliminate them, I have to work with the output it gives me and it isn't very sophisticated. I can use it to output any CF code I want but I have to deal with the strings it gives me. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Karl S. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
