You may also use evaluate() - store the function name(s) in variables & then evaluate them.
TK -----Original Message----- From: Andy Matthews [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 12:17 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Dynamically calling methods in a CFC I'm using Rick Root's image.cfc which contains scaleX and scaleY methods. Right now I'm doing an if statement with two lines for the call to the CFC. <cfif scaleMethod IS "scaleX"> <cfset a = APPLICATION.imgObj.scaleX()> <cfelse> <cfset a = APPLICATION.imgObj.scaleY()> </cfif> But I'd like to condense it to this: <cfset a = APPLICATION.imgObj[scaleMethod]()> But that method errors. I've tried these as well: <cfset a = APPLICATION.imgObj["#scaleMethod#"]()> <cfset a = APPLICATION.imgObj."#scaleMethod#"()> <cfset a = APPLICATION.imgObj.#scaleMethod#()> But they also failed. I know it's got to be possible, but I'm not sure how to do it...anyone? <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer certified advanced coldfusion programmer ICGLink, Inc.
