Don't do that. What's happening is that the number (isthere.recordcount) is being implicitly converted to a boolean for the CFIF to process. Implicit conversion where the destination type is something besides String is almost always the devil, end even if it's String it's still the devil sometimes.
The right way to do it is this: <cfif isthere.recordCount GT 0> That way you're explicitly creating the boolean you want CFIF to process. Same thing goes for len(), listLen(), etc. cheers, barneyb On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 11:48 AM, mark <[email protected]> wrote: > Working with some old code and found this.can't seem to find a reference via > adobe.com or google or books.
