Josh, I am right with you on that point! I am a huge fan of learning by doing! Keep it up.

This part of the app is not going to take heavy traffic, so the performance hit would be negligible. However going forward I will always take into consideration the possible performance implications of iif/evaluate/DE. Ben -- I guess I like messing around with stuff like this (iif, evaluate etc.) because I feel like I don't fully understand it, and if I can get it to work as desired, maybe I can come to a better understanding of how certain things in CF work in a more general sense. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Munson, Jacob" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 2:52 PM Subject: RE: iif: am I understanding correctly? >> OK, I ran cftimer on both examples, iif and the if/else way, >> and both came >> back 0 ms.
