in this auction app i cant find a reasonable solution for the handling of the bids. I have been sitting here messing with a lot of the tags and it seems to me that they are very dependant on how the info was entered. With of course means that i need to format it going into the db and possibly coming out. will be using a ms access db. And yes I have tried to set the bid field to currency which just throws an error.
And I cant format it coming out of the db unless the entries are in the same form going into the db. So is there a tag i have missed that would format it going in? understanding that some people might place bids in the following ways: (say user is bidding $1,000.00) $1,000.00 $1,000 $1000 1,000.00 1,000 1000 any thoughts? dave <!--- doesnt know jack about cfm ---> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
