Folks,
I'm sorry if this appears twice on thelist. But I submitted it the first
time about 13 hours ago and I still don't sdee it. So I'm trying again.
I have a question about where function invocations are legal.
Maybe someone can explain this for me. Here's what prompted my question:
1.) I have a form with a number of different sets of checkboxes. Thay are
named c1, c2, c3, c4, ... cn
2.) The sets are placed on the form with
<cfselect name="C#n#" query="G" value="q" required="Yes"
multiple></cfselect>
where #n# is a loop counter.
3.) Note the required="Yes" and multiple attributes in the cfselect. They
guarantee that
there will always be a value for form field C<n> and sometimes that value
will be a
comma-separated list.
4.) When I tried the following, ColdFusion balked on the Evaluate function
in the list attribute:
:
<cfloop index="n" from="1" to="#number_of_sets#"
<cfloop index="this_group" list="Evaluate('FORM.C#n#')"> ...
...
... </cfloop>
</cfloop>
5.) But it worked when I used the Evaluate function in a cfset tag and
referred to the variable in the cfloop's list attribute. Thus:
<cfset xlist = Evaluate('FORM.C#n#')>
<cfloop index="n" from="1" to="#number_of_sets#"
<cfloop index="this_group" list="xlist" ... ... ...
</cfloop>
</cfloop>
How come? Can I use a function in the list attribute of the cfloop tag? Or
is it the way I coded the Evaluate tag?
Anybody????
Thanks,
