The function below was written literally MONTHS ago.  Worked fine the whole 
time, even today... then suddenly it's throwing the error:

"Invalid data '' for CFSQLTYPE CF_SQL_INTEGER."

The error points to the line in the WHERE clause, referencing a.articleId.

Next, I purposely set the output="true" on this function, and did a cfdump of 
#a.articleId# -- it's definitely a valid integer.  but it's now choking on it 
for some reason.

as a test, i hard coded an article id into the where clause, removing the 
cfqueryparam.  with a hard coded number, it chokes on the next cfqueryparam up. 
 if i reference #a.articleId# directly (outside of cfqueryparam), I also get 
the same error.  how can a.articleId suddenly become '' right after dumping it 
and successfully showing it to be an integer??

I've restarted both the cf server and the database server, wondering if there 
was some sort of strange hangup there... no joy.

I'm losing my mind... help!!



        <cffunction name="updateArticle" returntype="void" access="private" 
output="true">

                <cfargument name="structArticle" required="true" type="Struct"

structure containing all fields of an article, and the values to be saved.">

                <cfset var a = arguments.structArticle>
