One must always remember that server side processing (CF) and client side processing (JS) are different and never the twain shall meet.
Ok, ok, yes there are ways to mix the two, but not the way you are talking about. Once the page and all the data has been sent to the client, using CFML is not going to do much good, the Cold Fusion Application server is been there, done that with that page an is on to the next request. What you probably want to do, but this is not the only way to skin this particular piece of code, is to pass the CFML array into the JS creating a JS array out of it. I've done this several time and usually just use the straight forward <CFWDDX...> tag, which has a built in parameter value "cfml2js" to do just this in one line I usually just put this in the top of my JS code <script type="text/javascript"....> <cfwddx action="cfml2js" input="#aCFArray#" topLevelVariable="aJSVar"> // other JS code that can now reference the JS array "aJSVar" </script> -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code.
