RE: switch inside loop inside cfscript

[Phillip Holmes]

>I’m trying to use a switch statement inside a conditional loop inside a cfscript block.  The break; statement for each switch case throws me out of the loop altogether.  If I use “continue;” instead of “break” it just processes to the end of the switch statement.   Any clues?   Is it possible to do this in cfscript?



Thanks in advance,

Here ya go --->



<cfscript>
variables.expense1 = 'Printing';
variables.expense2 = 'Postage';
variables.expense3 = 'Mail House';
variables.expense4 = 'Postage';

expense1_value = 1;
expense2_value = 1;
expense3_value = 1;
expense4_value = 1;

for (i=1; i LTE 4; i=incrementvalue(i)) {
     switch(evaluate("expense#i#"))
     {
          case "Printing":
          {
               variables.myval = 1 + evaluate("variables.expense#i#_value");
               break;
          }
          case "Postage":
          {
               variables.myval = 2 + evaluate("variables.expense#i#_value");
               break;
          }
          case "Mail House":
          {
               variables.myval = 3 + evaluate("variables.expense#i#_value");
               break;
          }
     }
}
</cfscript>

<cfoutput>
#variables.myval#
</cfoutput>
