Subject: trim a string variable
Is there a way to trim a string like : file.jpg
to : file
(aka knock off the last 4 characters)
<cfset newfilename = #left(File.ServerFile,4)#> Does not work because the
name of the file in the database could be longer then 4 characters
Is there a function that im missing to trim off the last 4 characters of a
variable?
Thanks
Chad
