Lose the var, just use myvarname = "..." I couldn't find this stated in the docs but it's what works for me. Or use <cfparam outside of <cfscript

I think in order for VAR to be useful it has to be within a FUNCTION correct?

Anyone any idea why I am getting errors when initializing my variables with "var" in cfscript? Scripts that worked before now do not allow the var keyword anymore... I was getting this a couple of days ago, just ignored it as I could not figure what in godsname was wrong. Now it's sort of getting annoying, just started a complete new project from BLANK type in var and get an error again.. Following is one of the codes that generate the error. -------- <cfscript> var location = "<a href=""index.cfm"">Home</a> » <a href=""index.cfm?fuseaction=Search"">Search</a>"; var bAppend = false; if ( url.searchType IS "advanced" ) { location = location & " » <a href=""index.cfm?fuseaction=search&searchType=advanced"">Advanced</a>"; bAppend = true; } ................................more code </cfscript> The error I get is: just in time compilation error Invalid parser construct found on line 3 at position 2.
