Check the evaluate function. #evaluate(myQueryName.article)#
You'll need to replace the single # with double ## before evaluating it.

Subject: Parsing a text field from a db...
Folks:
Here is today's challenge :
I have a database that stores Library articles (how-to's).
I need to be able to store ColdFusion markup in the database and have it
parsed once the row is retrieved from the database.
For example, I store the following text in the db:
<img src="#application.imagesRoot#/library/image.gif">
Then, I retrieve this Library item from the db with a query and display it,
like this :
<cfoutput>#myQueryName.article#</cfoutput>
PROBLEM : The text that is written to the html file the LITERAL text from
the database. Instead, I need to have this text parsed and interpreted as
CFML.
Does this make sense?
Any ideas?!
Thanks!
