Well, one slight problem is the \b inside brackets which means a backslash in CFMX, not a word boundary. I'm using [^[:space:]] instead now and it seems to work perfectly. And no, I don't want to use \s rather than [[:space:]] as [[:space:]] is easier to read/understand (self documentation) and I don't see any speed difference between them. If there is a difference in ability/speed/performance/load, please let me know and I'll change. Thanks
