OK, this works:
<cfdirectory action="CREATE" directory="#ExpandPath("\userpages\#dynamic_name#")#"> And this works (hardcoded new directory name): <cfdirectory action="CREATE" directory="#ExpandPath(\userpages\theCreatedName\images)#"> But this doesn't work: <cfdirectory action="CREATE" directory="#ExpandPath("\userpages\#findUser.USER_NAME#\images")#"> I get this error (even though the directory DOES NOT exist yet) The specified Directory attribute value C:\mypath\httpdocs\userpages\theCreatedName \images could not be created. The most likely cause of this error is that 'C:\Inetpub\vhosts\bakersfield99.com\httpdocs\userpages\Howard \images' already exists on your file system. The exception occurred during a cfdirectory action="CREATE". I've tried various configurations of the directory = attributes (no quotes, quotes in different places, etc.) Nothing works. I guess next I'll try creating the string before hand with CFSet, but even if that works, I wonder why this didn't.
