You don't use the # signs within the cfset tag. Aside from that though, yes,
you do just say <cfoutput>#countvar#</cfoutput> . In your set statement you
assigned the return value of the code on the right to the variable on the
left.

Subject: Dynamic variable construction and it's use
Hi there,
If construct a variable name dynamically like;
<cfset countvar="#session.application_view_list[i].name#_red">
How do I then output the contents of the newly constructed variable?
If the code above evaluated to a variable name e.g. "oracledb_red", how
would I do the equivalent of
<cfoutput>
#oracledb_red#
</cfoutput>
Doing
<cfoutput>
#countvar#
</cfoutput>
will obviously just output the new variable name but not it's contents.
I've tried various permutations of #'s and quotes but can't seem to get it
right.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Kevin
