Re: [ACFUG Discuss] disappearing variable values

Yes that was it. For a test I removed the application.cfm file and then that
corrected the problem so then I went through the application.cfm and see
there was also  in the
application.cfm file. So obviously the first tag was canceling out the
second.

Thanks Charlie. That should have been obvious to me. I thought too much into
this and look right passed the obvious.

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] disappearing variable values

2010-07-15 Thread Charlie Arehart 
Glad to hear of the resolution. That's why I love doing this (CF 
troubleshooting) for
a living. I've seen so many similar problems that I can be a bit dogged about 
saying,
"are you really sure you tested xxx?" :-), but it just comes from having "been 
there,
done that", as of course have so many others here. It's a great community we 
have. :-)

That'd be a great idea, assuming his schedule allows!
