Hi, I'm stuck on this and could use some help.
I'm trying to populate a multiple selection form in edit
mode and highlight (selected) items that are stored with
the record. I'm storing the multiple selections in a single
VarChar column using a comma delimiter.
Thanks
BAD: CFIF #ListElement# =
#GetCategoriesOutput.categorie_id#selected/CFIF
GOOD: CFIF #ListElement# IS
#GetCategoriesOutput.categorie_id#selected/CFIF
In if statement is CF you have to use
IS, EQ, NEQ

Oh yeah,
You don't need the pound signs either.
CFIF ListElement IS GetCategoriesOutput.categorie_idselected/CFIF

Sorry, I don't see the point here? Is OPTION SELECTED=selected legal
in HTML? Even if yes, what is the advantage?
Anyway, the whole loop could be optimized:
Instead of
CFOUTPUT query=GetCategoriesOutput
682
It is valid XHTML(or maybe it was part of the HTML 4.0 spec), actually all
upper case like that would not be if I remember correctly. It was more or
less a joke on my part although it would be a good habbit for anyone to be
in. Especially if they were ever to have to write code for things such
It is valid XHTML
Ah ok.
Personnally, I'll use XHTML when I'll need to, for the time being,
I prefer having all CFML and HTML tags and attributes in upper case,
and all variables and the rest of the code in lower case, question of
readibility,
but of course it is personal.
Closing unnecessary
If you do a cfexit method=exittag in your custom tags then you could do
the / method with them. Although maybe there are times that could not be
done, can not honestly think of a time but I am sure there are some. We use
a system here that uses a ton of custom tags and unfortunately it is just

Just what I mean: you have to do something.
