This always makes me laugh. Why don't you make a page with CFIF, then run it
Now use IIF() and run it What difference do you see in execution time? Bugger all. If you make a big loop that calls IIF 1000 times then you may notice a difference. Also imagine this code <select name = "bob" #IIF(name is bob, "'selected'","''")#> Now do the same thing with CFIF/CFELSE, how messy is that. Don't NOT use something just because some cycle counting freak tells you not to because you must save every possible 1000th of a millisecond. At least try it for yourself first. - Snake -----Original Message----- From: Mike Soultanian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 July 2006 04:17 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: iif: am I understanding correctly? Don't use iif() Always use cfif/cfelse instead of iif(). It is significantly faster and more readable.
