I thought you cannot just place a . or \ as they are special characters. I also
need to find a double . not a single.
right now I am using '[##\\&%]' and it is returning true on every evaluation.
>You'd treat those characters as a character set like so:
>
><cfset myString = 'a test ## to see . where I might find % in some string'>
><cfset matches = REFind('[##.\/%]',myString,1,true)>
><cfdump var="#myString#">
><cfdump var="#matches#">
><cfabort>
>
>Putting the characters inside the square brackets forces the regex to look
>for each of those chars individually instead of as one string.
