Casey:
I'm not trying to display a date. I'm trying to display something like
this:
In a column field named wrong_answer, for example, this is the text in that
field:
<cfset #thisdate# = #DateFormat(Now))#>
Now, I want to display in a set of <cfoutput> tags, like this:
<cfoutput>
#wrong_answer#
</cfoutput>
I don't want the date. I want the whole text field to display.
Nothing will display. I think it might be because this is coldfusion code
in the column field.
Thanks again,
Yvette Ingram
