Charlie, spot on. I was expecting the same result because those html tags should show up fine. Guess what they are actually lt gt etc in variable thats why they show up as html tags when the result is being shown.
So the fix is this. This works.I removed all gt lt etc. <cfset shortDescription1 = replacelist(shortDescription, '<![CDATA[,]]>,<p><strong>,</strong> <br />,</p>','')> <strong>Property Description:</strong>#shortDescription1# HTH <Ajas Mohammed /> http://ajashadi.blogspot.com We cannot become what we need to be, remaining what we are. No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do. You can't improve what you don't measure. Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.
