As Ricki and yourself have said you need to reload the page. At this point
strictly speaking Javascript variables are actually form or url variables
and its not the Javascript that is updating the CF variable at all, but the
page reload.
The kind of update that Ricki is after is a using JS to change CF variables
_without_ reloading. JS is client side and CF is server side, so you can use
the server side to set the JS before sending it to the client, but the
client cannot affect the server without actually sending information to
server via form, cookie or url variables.
Ricardo is exactly right (much to my dismay because I **hate** client side
Java) In order do this kind of processing you need something that can access
the same object and Java is one of the few ways to handle with....
Actually a thought occurs.... (Yeah yeah smart remarks should be kept to
yourselves ;o) How about Flash 5?? Could you use that to produce an
CF/XML/Flash solution??
