johnathan... I'm not sure if this is what you're trying to do and it's not working but the \5 is a back reference used in regular expressions. It means that it's trying to look for a value contained in memory used within the regex portion of your REReplace function. You might already know this, so if that's the case then just disregard this email.

The string came from a FORM, it was never a literal on a page. Nonetheless, ColdFusion appears to process it out and it disappears. Can anyone explain that this is not a straight out bug? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
