Nope. Try some quotes... (And get rid of all those extra pound
signs!)

Now... I would have bet money there was a FindLast or ReverseFind or
something in CF, but I can't find it in my quickref booklet. Must be
thinking of ASP or something...
This should do the trick:
<cfset LastSlash = (Len(string_name) - FindNoCase("/",
Reverse(string_name))) + 1>
Tho this would probably be marginally more efficient:
<cfloop from="#Len(String_Name)#" to="1" step="-1" index="i">
<cfif Mid(String_Name, i, 1) EQ "/">
<cfset LastSlash = i>
<cfbreak>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
Or Even:
<cfscript>
for(i=Len(String_Name);i GT 0;i=i+1) {
if(Mid(String_Name), i, 1) EQ "/") {
LastSlash = i;
break;
}
}
</cfscript>
