I suppose you're right. It's probably an order of operation thing,
where the CF server compiles the variables from the inside out. So
with this:
file="#expandPath("projFiles/#url.jobNum#/#url.fileToOpen#")#"
it would compile in this order:
1. #url.jobNum# & #url.fileToOpen#
2. #expandPath("...")#
3. file="..."
Interesting...well for my own sanity's sake I'll still try not to put
double quotes inside of double qoutes in the future. :)
