Speaking of the cfdocs lacking, the next time cf has a quick reference - how about showing return values from a function?
For example my CFML quick ref says: ArraySort(array, sort_type, [,sort_order]) helpful, but does it return a new sorted array or a yes/no? String ArraySort(array, sort_type, [,sort_order]) would be much more helpful and clear in the "quick" reference. :) rob -----Original Message----- From: charlie griefer [mailto:charlie@;griefer.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 12:30 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: cfscript book Ben Forta writes: > I hate to put it this bluntly, but there really is not that much to say > about <CFSCRIPT>.
