Hi All, Thanks for the additional ideas and requests for clarification - I'm stopping this by not allowing a few special characters in the comments...
That said.... CF appears to error out when it receives the string of data that contains single # or two # separated by string text being confused as a CF variable. It errors out when attempting to run a replace() on the entire received string (again I need to double check that is in fact what I am seeing). There is no time that I use eval() on the received data - no worries on security issues as was mentioned. I decided to not allow these few characters because the chance of them being used in the context of the application is VERY slim....and for the one character (#) that has a greater chance of being used, there are acceptable alternatives to the use of "#". This comments field is optional and rarely used....further lessening the chances of these special characters being entered - just not the hill to die on ;-) Code is already changed - compiling now ;-) Have a great weekend everyone - thanks again! *Bryan Stevenson*B.Comm.
