Hi Rob,
I hope that that helps. Well, it certainly gives me a direction -- mainly by your experience with needing to replace and escape certain values. Thanks very much. The errors I mentioned came when doing much the same thing you were trying. The difference is that I saved the XML into a variable, which was then output in the "style" attribute. This is necessary because of the need to build the XML dynamically. But I'll do some testing, using your suggestions. Meanwhile, if anyone has any other XML experiences that might be relevant, I'm sure we'll all appreciate it. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Enterprise web applications, build robust, secure scalable apps today - Try it now ColdFusion Today ColdFusion 8 beta - Build next generation apps Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:287969 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
