The application.temp_images_directory is being set in application.cfc: The last part of the example below, the #newImageFileName#.#originalImageExt# is being set in news.cfc, after an image has been uploaded. It's done this way to be able to manipulate the filename part before the extension, su

It is too expensive and its main competition is free. It's not just expensive for business running their own servers, it is expensive for hosting companies too. Adobe missed the boat years ago to give it away either free or at a student price. When I talk to potential customers, none of them ha

That is the equivalent of what you would see if you ran that variable through jsStringFormat() somewhere. I'd run a quick search for that. I'd start in the app.cfc with that search to make sure you don't have a routine somewhere that "cleans' your variables for you. On 3/13/13 8:23 PM, "Rick Fa
