Because client side processing occurs AFTER the page loads, you would likely need to store these values as a session variable. Why not use <textarea style="width: 50%"></textarea> instead? Only 5% of the people run Netscape, so it'll probably take six or seven months before anyone is effected by this =) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 18, 2001 4:20 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Passing Javascript variables to CF? I have the following Javascript returning the frame height and width. <script language="Javascript"> function sizeTextArea(){ var winWidth=top.document.all.mainFrame.width; var winHeight=top.document.all.mainFrame.height; // offsets of 20 and 40 prevented scrollbars appearing in window document.myForm.textvar.style.width=winWidth-20; document.myForm.textvar.style.height=winHeight-40; } </script> How can I get the width and height from the above script into a CF variable so I can pass this to a <texttarea>...</textarea> tag? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
