They're equivalent, so it doesn't matter which one you use. It's
purely a matter of personal preference.

Without quotes around "Yes", CF sees it as a variable name, not a
literal string.

Re: Dynamic variable name (WAS: XML Variable Issue)

2005-01-18 Thread Adam Haskell
When dealing with structures (or XML since most of the time XML
objects can be dealt with like you deal with structures) a good rule
of thumb is to us the . (request.page_id) when you know what you are
looking for and to use the [] (request[something]) when you are using
a variable to evaluate what you are looking for, so in
request[something] something would be a vadiable containing page_id.
Hope that helps.

...A related issue (at a completely diferent point in the code)...
...
...If the SectionName is dynamic, how would you access the variable?
...
...For example the Variable name
..."Config.SiteConfig.SiteSections.UserManager.XmlText" has the
..."UserManager"
...part in another variable called "Sections.Name".  I have tried many
...options
...and variations with no success and I know this is easy as I have done it
...before (although not from XML) and I can't remember how!

...EG:

RE: dynamic variable name

2002-06-14 Thread Jeffrey Polaski

I think you want to use SetVariable(name , value). You could also use
evaluate(), but I think it would be more of a pain. 

Just a word of advice, so please don't take it the wrong way, but you should
be very careful of using evaluate() or setvariable(). There is almost always
a simpler, faster way to do what you want. (I think it's been two or more
years since I've needed to use either.)

My brain is fried.

How do I do this?





So that I end up with variables name dynamicName_1 through dynamicName_10?

Or



Or

Use an array for dynamicName and use the dynamicName[] notation if i is
a number.

Or

Use a struct for dynamicName and use the dynamicName[] notation if I can
be any string.

If you can do the 3rd option, go for the 3rd option. :)
