Anderson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 30 May 2001 20:20 To: CF-Talk Subject: Newbie-CF trying to process Hex numbers :-) Hi all, Have been learning CF, and going through the book ColdFusion 4.0 Web Application Construction Kit. Short story is I got bored with white background and black text, and started doing my own app instead of the example in the book, using background colors, text colors, and CSS, etc. Okay, now I have a problem ;) CF is trying to process my hex numbers, and I can't figure out how to fix it. I am trying to update records, using #Trim(ColumnName)#. My code can be found here: http://www.sitediva.com/code.txt When I passed the ContactID to this page through a link on another page, I got this error: --------------------------------- Error Diagnostic Information Just in time compilation error Invalid parser construct found on line 38 at position 23. ColdFusion was looking at the following text: " Invalid expression format. The usual cause is an error in the expression structure. The last successfully parsed CFML construct was static text occupying document position (29:28) to (38:15). The specific sequence of files included or processed is: C:\AddressBook\update_biz_form.cfm ----------------------------------- So I go to the line, and it's the <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> tag, the " after the first hex number. I stripped out the hex numbers, then it gets stuck on the next one, <tr bgcolor="#990000"> ... I can't find anything in the book that talks about this, can anyone help?
