Seeing as you don't specify where or why you want to append it... our single
character will be a pipe (|).

<input type="text" name="passing_this_value" value="#this_value#|">

<form onSubmit="this.passing_this_value.value =
this_passing_this_value.value + '|';">
<input type="text" name="passing_this_value" value="">

<input type="text" name="passing_this_value" value="">
then on the next page... <cfset FORM.passing_this_value =
FORM.passing_this_value & "|">

However, you probably don't need any of that... why would you? You can get
the length of the string Len(passing_this_value), and none of CF's many
string manipulation functions require such a thing..

Subject: Append a single character at the end of a form input value???
Importance: High


Gurus everywhere?!

Is there a way I can append a character to the end of an input value so
that I can find a predetermined "end marker" for string manipulation.

Example:
<input type="text" name="passing_this_value" value="">  But, I need to
append a character at the end.

Help!!!

Thank you.
