It's because he put CFIF tags inside a CF TAG. I dont think that is allowed and thus Coldfusion couldn't parse it correctly.

Did you look at the HTML source? You want to make sure the HTML itself is rendering properly. (I see stuff like this all the time as a result of a missing <cfoutput> tag, and the tell-tale #s in the HTML are the first clue.) You might be running into trouble if the field you're checking for is NULL. Try this comparison instead: <cfif Len(Trim(userinfo.worh)) GT 0 AND userinfo.worh EQ 1> > -----Original Message----- > From: Jillian Carroll [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 3:51 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Checkbox Value > > > I know I'm close on this... this works with radio buttons. > > I have a query: > > <cfquery name="userinfo" datasource="#DSN#"> > SELECT id, username, password, salutation, fname, lname, > address, city, > prov, country, pcode, worh, phoneh, phonew, faxh, faxw, > email, datebox, > centraladmin, provadmin, trainer, other > FROM users > WHERE id = #userid# > </cfquery> > > And from the results of this query I want to determine > whether a checkbox is > checked.
