They are the same. Some people like to use EQ for numeric values and IS for strings just to make it easier to read/follow the code. Other than that... they are no different... they are even the same number of bytes toward the overall file size :-)
-----Original Message----- From: David Gardner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 30, 2007 7:24 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: EQ vs IS If this has been through the ringer already, forgive me. Just give me the verdict. No reason to rehash anything. On MX 7.... My old supervisor told me that "EQ" was better to use than "IS" when comparing things. His info is usually based on fact, so I've taken that as rote. I've done some tests, but neither seems consistently victorious. Is there an agreed-upon conclusion on this issue, or do different folks have their opinions? I'm optomizing some code that's causing someone's server to crash. I'm wondering if I need to take the time to convert all the IS to EQ or vice versa? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:268158 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
