Peter How about passing the date (mm yy) as the URL variable instead of the date id, then just compare them. Use a cfparam above all this set to the current month and year so it display today by default. Then in your calendar table use the URL var and the query value to see if they're the same. If so display the style you want for that particular <td> tag.
