#student_name# is a coldfusion (server) code, so it needs the coldfusion
outputs around it.
alert() is the javascript it is client side. Since you are using the two
together, you either need to wrap the variable (student_name) with
<cfoutput> or you can wrap the entire alert with <cfoutput>
<cfoutput>alert("#student.name#");</cfoutput>
Either way will work

Subject: Re: Javascript vs. cfscript
the only way i can make it actually display an alert within javascript is if
i do the following code:
alert("<cfoutput>#student.name#</cfoutput>");
if i do the following it doesnt work:
alert(#student.name#);
am i doing something wrong
