Dave, 

It really doesn't make any sense but it works. I'm sure as I work with it
more it will sink in. Thx.

ummm ... Is this because <cfoutput query=""> loops through the table? ...
and this makes it stop at the first match?

// glm

Do a group on the user id. This way your grouping is done on individual
unique values, hence cancelling out the grouping.

Hope this makes sense,
Dave

Subject: embedding cfmail in a cfoutput


I must be missing something very simple. I'm trying to embed a cfmail in a
cfoutput tag and am getting the following error msg.

// ERROR MSG

A CFMAIL tag is nested inside a CFOUTPUT tag that does not have a GROUP=
attribute. This is not allowed. Nesting these tags implies that you want to
use grouped processing. However, the top-level tag must specify a top-level
group using a GROUP= attribute.

// END of ERROR MSG

As I understand it I have no need of a group attribute; nor would the group
attribute help in this situation.  Of course it may be that my understanding
is incorrect. :-]


PROBLEM:

Users fill in a form. They are in a permissioned area. They authenticate
their submission by filling in their user username and password. (To be
doubly sure that the submitter is the person logged into the site.)

The processing page queries the database and sees if the username and
password equals the form submitted username and password. If it is a cfmail
is sent. If not then an error msg appears.

code below:

        <cfquery name="name" datasource="aaa">
                SELECT *
                FROM users
                WHERE Username='#log_username#'
        </cfquery>
        <cfoutput query="name">

                <cfif #username# EQ #form.submittedUsername# AND #password#
EQ #form.submittedPassword#>



                        <cfmail
                                to=""
                                from=""
                                subject=""
                        >


                                yadda yadda yadda


                        </cfmail>
                <cfelse>

                        Your username and password do not match the login
records of the current user.

                </cfif>

        </cfoutput>

thx,

gilbert midonnet
