It sounds to me like you are trying to mix a JavaScript function with CF, which doesn't work.
You'll either need a CF function that does what you're trying to do (which I'm not sure of; Spell out the number? At any rate, JS is pretty convertible to CF.) or pass the JS var to CF in some way. I think it's probably pretty hard to do it "in page" unless you use AJAX. If you are converting a number to it's phonetic equivalent, or whatever, maybe check out this UDF: http://www.cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=40 Then you could use the <cfset> to set the variable. I'm sorry this isn't very clear, but hopefully it's enough to get you going again. Recap: You're trying to use JS within CF, and it doesn't work like that. Let me know if I can be any more un-clear-er. :D On 8/6/06, Ray Meade <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I'm having a problem with a dollar-to-text conversion script I downloaded. > Actually I'm not sure if the script works or not because CF say's it can't > find the variable dollarText (which is the name of the script function.
