You could change your code to be...
<cfif frmVar EQ menuitemID>
<cfset counter = counter + 1>
</cfif>

Subject: RE: form variables in structures
Hi Mike,
Another question to see if anyone can help.
I want to count the total value of some dynamic variables, but only
particular ones. I am selecting which ones from a query, then outputting
the results and looping through the Form collection. However, my counter
never seems to display, and this code doesn't work. Can you see why?
<cfquery name="getmaincourses" datasource="#Request.App.dsn#">
SELECT *
FROM tbl_menuitems
WHERE venueID = #venue#
AND courseID = 3
</cfquery>
<!--- initialise counter --->
<cfset counter = 0>
<!--- output query, checking if a main course was selected and if it was
then adding the value of it to the counter --->
<cfoutput query="getmaincourses">
<CFLOOP COLLECTION="#FORM#" ITEM="frmVar">
<cfif frmVar IS "#menuitemID#">
<cfset counter = #counter# + #Form[frmVar]#>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
<cfif counter NEQ Form.noofdiners>
Not the same
<cfelseif counter EQ Form.noofdiners>
The same
</cfif>
but I get this error:
An error occurred while evaluating the expression:
counter = #counter# + #Form[frmVar]#
Error near line 52, column 9.

Cannot convert to number.
Cheers

Hi,
I have a dynamic form that has a number of dynamic fields. I know that
Form variables are passed as a structure, but how would I access this. I
need to loop over the fields and display their values. Can any of you
guys help?
Cheers
Will
