CF Variables in database...
I have data in my database that contains CF varaibles. For example, "Hello, Mr. #lname#" might be in my database. I call this data from a query and insert it into a page that has lname defined. So I want it to assign a value to the variable. But when I out the code, it is returned as #lname#, complete with pound signs and CF ignores it. How can I run a query that returns variables to be processed by CF server? Thanks, Steve ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: CF Variables in database...
you have to put a CFOUTPUT /cfoutput around the variables or CFOUTPUT query="blah" CFOUTPUT has to be around all ## variables in order to be processed as anything other then text/html Bill Wheatley Director of Development Allaire Certified ColdFusion Developer AEPS INC Allaire ColdFusion Consulting Partner www.aeps.com www.aeps2000.com 954-472-6684 X303 ICQ: 417645 - Original Message - From: "Steve Reich" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "CF-Talk" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2001 4:10 PM Subject: CF Variables in database...
