Dave,
Sorry to bother you but the list is down and I have a project to get done
asap. I am stuck.
I have a variable that contains a string with another variable name. I want
to display the variable not the variable name when I display the first.
IE
<cfset variable1 = "stuff">
<cfset variable2 = "variable1">
<CFOUTPUT>
#variable2#
I want to see stuff instead of variable1 when I output variable 2. I have
been through all the book I have and can't figure this one out. Is it
possible. I though the evaluate function might work but no luck.
