RE: CR in a textarea problem
That IS how they will go into the database. You just have to make sure to format it that way when outputting it since browsers dont parse CRs as line breaks. So just insert the... Name1 Name2 Name3 Then when you output it replace the CRs with br / tags like so... #Replace(query.column, #chr(13)##chr(10)#, br /, all)# or just wrap it in pre tags ;-) ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

Textarea problem.
I am sure this has been dealt with before, but I'm having some issues with this one -- maybe someone can help. I am doing a search and replace routine, and I want the user to be able to enter in the text and have that passed EXACTLY how it was pasted in. It is to be used often for replacing blocks of HTML code in a database. I have seen custom tags that display the original correctly, but I they do it by substituted one thing for another. Here I need to get an exact duplicate of what was entered. Any thoughts? -Bill www.brainbox.tv ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Textarea problem
This is not the case:
IsDefined is one of those 'funny' tags the proper syntax for checking the
existence of a variable FORM.FirstName is:
IsDefined("FORM.FirstName")
Also #'s are note required inside of most other tags so the following is
syntactically correct:
cfif FORM.FirstName IS "Sean"
...
/cfif
Use #'s to interpolate the variable (get at the value not the name). That's
why IsDefined is unusual, you are looking for the presence of a variable
_name_ in the symbol table, if you put #'s in there you'll be looking for
the presence of whatever FORM.FirstName's value is in the symbol table (if
FORM.FirstName is Bob, then IsDefined("#FORM.FieldName#") will look in the
symbol table for a variable named "BOB")
Inside of tags (and outside of quotes) CF interpolates the value for you so
you can do things like:
cfif flag !--- True if flag is "YES" or 1 false if Flag is NO or
zero ---
cfif Age GTE 21
But if you have a variable called ColorList and ColorList="red,green,blue"
and you want to loop over that list, you'll need to use the #'s in the
list="" because you want to loop over the value contained in the variable
named colorList:
cfloop list="#ColorList" index="thisColor"

Heya, Try making your validation cfif form.req_just is "" and see if it works. I think it may be case-sensitive, so the function is being thrown off.

RE: Textarea problem
Katie,
I tried out your example and I'm guessing that the action="" attributes of
the form element is either not specified, or explicitly set to
action="get". (the default is get too.) If you are posting with characters
other than a-zA-Z_0-9 then you'll need to either URLEncodedFormat() them, or
use the action=POST attributes to the form element.
Since you are using a textarea element in the form, it makes more sense to
use the POST action.
special characters are used in URL strings (and the GET method) to separate
the name=value pairs, since your text has these special characters, the
name=value pairs were mangled, resulting in a value no being defined where
you thought it would be.
Another suggestion:
cfif IsDefined("FORM.REQ_JUST") AND Len(Trim(FORM.REQ_JUST))
!--- Good Value ---
cfelse
!--- Bad Value ---
You must enter the justification.br
a href="javascript:history.back()"Back/a
CFABORT
/cfif
