I'm telling ya, I ran the _exact_ same code you had. Here is my version:
<cfparam name="KeyName" default="Do you accept third party out of state
checks?">
<cfscript>
function Encodify(encodeThis){
var encodedString = "";
encodedString = URLEncodedFormat(Encrypt(encodeThis, KeyName));
return encodedString;
}
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
function Decodify(decodeThis){
var decodedString = "";
decodedString = Decrypt(URLDecode(decodeThis), KeyName);
return decodedString;
}
</cfscript>
<cfset myid="1">
Original myID: 1
<cfset myid=Encodify(myid)>
<cfoutput>myid=#myid#<br></cfoutput>
<cfset myid2=Decodify(myid)>
<cfoutput>decoded #myid2#</cfoutput>
The only difference is that I used the name, myid2 in the last line of
code.
