probably treating the 'e' as exponent. as for the 'd'.... not a freaking clue!
-Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Kent Bulmer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 4:28 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: isNumeric Trivia Pardon me if this has been covered before but why does the code: <cfoutput> #isNumeric('3D2')#<BR> #isNumeric('4E2')#<BR> #isNumeric('3424234E23')#<BR> #isNumeric('6456423D324')#<BR> </cfoutput> return 'YES' values? It will work with any combination of numbers as long as there is at least one number in front of the letter and no more than three numbers after a 'D' or two numbers after an 'E'. It doesn't seem to work with any other letters... -- Kent Bulmer Application Developer BMG Consultants Inc.
