This technique allows HTML pages to have dynamically updated sections
without refreshing the entire page, it may be of some assistance.

Problem: displaying constantly changing prices in a table without refreshing
the whole page (because of the flash/flicker)
Backend: I'm pulling the prices from an xml page.
Attempt: refreshing a hidden iframe/layer and then pulling the data into a
new div. Works great in IE 5.0 and 5.5 and passably well in IE 4.x (the
mouse flickers but the data pulls in smoothly). However nothing I've tried
has worked in NS. I can pull the data in but the flicker is unacceptable.
So the thought is to use CF to bypass some of the problem and ...
aaaaarrrrggggg!!!!! If I had any hair left I would pull it out.
TIA

As part of trying to solve a larger problem I would like to put a lot (100+
lines) of html and cold fusion code (<CFLOOPS> etc... no SQL) into a string.
Two questions.
1. what's the best way of dealing with this?
<CFSET var1="<html><head>">
...
<CFSET var6="<td class=aaa width=450
align=center>#data.something[aaa].name#</td>">
<CFSET varTotal=var1 & " " & var2 ...>
2. Should I be trying this at all? :>
TIA
