I have the following in my application.cfm file <cfset child = 0> In my index.cfm file I have the following. <cfset child=child + 1> Everytime I refresh the page manually or by using an <a href within mu file to reload mu index.cfm it doesn't increment? --------------------------------------------------- Colonel Nathan R.
