Because regular expression parsers see '(' as the beginning of a regex
group whereas ')' is evaluated literally. You'll need to escape the
opening parenthesis.
<cfset Form.City1 = rereplace(Form.City1,"\(","( ", "all")>

Subject: in REREPLACE ")" works but not "("
I cannot findout why this works:
<cfset Form.City1 = rereplace(Form.City1,")","( ", "all")>
and this does not:
<cfset Form.City1 = rereplace(Form.City1,"(","( ", "all")>
the problem is when the string to be replaced is "(" or chr(40). The
character replacing it can be "(" or "(" it does not matter, it would
work as long the first one is ")"
Any ideas?
