Re: Escaping #'s in outputting a CSS
Are you trying to replace # with ##? If so, you might need to replace ## with . Maybe a code sample of what you're attempting will help. Is the CSS embedded or inline? If it's linked, then of course there's no need to escape the #'s On 4/19/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Stupid beginner question I know but it's been a long time since I've done any REAL CF coding.

You can use rgb(rr,gg,bb) instead of Hex numbers in CSS.

RE: escaping #'s
What also works, that I've done is to replace the #'s with the ASCII char. That way you don't have to worry about whether it'll end up being properly escaped or not. When it's displayed the browser will translate the Char into a Pound The ASCII char for # is #35 My code was CFSET FormDetail = #Replace(FORM.Detail, "##", "##35;")# That way your db just has an ASCII value where ever a pound was. Seems to work pretty well in my app. Hope that helps too J.
