Jason didn't say WHY he cared about even or odd, but if you want to use it to make every other row a different color, a great "trick" is to include the digits "0" and "1" in style class names and then use the MOD value to pick which style without ever having to use <CFIF> You just define style classes like: <style> .row0 { background: blue } .row1 { background: yellow } </style> Then as you loop through the rows watch the count (I'll call it rowCount) and use it to directly assign the style class <cfoutput> <tr style="row#evaluate("rowCount mod 2")#"> </cfoutput> That will automatically add a 0 or 1 to the end of the class name and your rows will be alternately colored in an efficient way. > <cfset thisnum =1> > <cfloop> > <cfif thisnum is 2>do this</cfif> > Blah Blah > <cfset this num = #thisnum# + 1> > </cfllop> > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Jason Larson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: CF-Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Monday, November 20, 2000 8:57 AM > Subject: Finding an Odd Number > > > > > > Can someone help me out? > > > > I have a cfloop that loops 6 times, I want to be able to be able to output > > what loop number the current loop is on, and tell if the number is even or > > odd. > > > > Any help would be greatly appreciated > > > > Thanks > > Jason Larson > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
