Try putting a Trim() around your variable... 

also you may change this to a <cfswitch because a switch is faster than a bunch of ifs 
and it reads better.

One other plus is that you can put a cfdefaultcase(like a cfelse) to catch a variable 
not getting set inside the switch.

My 2 cents...

I have a frustrating situation with the fillowing code.  I am using a
Session variable that definitely exists to display alternate links in a
header section.  I have done a CFDUMP directly before the first CFIF
statement and the Sesiion variable I am looking for exists and displays yet
the CFIF block cannot see it.  Can anyone give me any insight into what
might be going on?

                <cfif Session.JobType IS "N">           
                <td align="center"><a
href="index.cfm?fuseaction=<cfoutput>#attributes.xfa.plahome#</cfoutput>">Pl
anned Appliance Information</a></td>            
                </cfif>
                <cfif Session.JobType IS "R">           
                <td align="center"><a
href="index.cfm?fuseaction=<cfoutput>#attributes.xfa.plahomeres#</cfoutput>"
>Planned Appliance Information</a></td>
                </cfif>
                <cfif Session.JobType IS "B">
                <td align="center"><a
href="index.cfm?fuseaction=<cfoutput>#attributes.xfa.plahomeres#</cfoutput>"
>Planned Appliance Information</a></td>
                </cfif>

Also tried this <cfif Session.JobType IS "N">           
                <td align="center"><a
href="index.cfm?fuseaction=<cfoutput>#attributes.xfa.plahome#</cfoutput>">Pl
anned Appliance Information</a></td>                            
                <cfelseif Session.JobType IS "R">               
                <td align="center"><a
href="index.cfm?fuseaction=<cfoutput>#attributes.xfa.plahomeres#</cfoutput>"
>Planned Appliance Information</a></td>
                <cfelseif Session.JobType IS "B">
                <td align="center"><a
href="index.cfm?fuseaction=<cfoutput>#attributes.xfa.plahomeres#</cfoutput>"
>Planned Appliance Information</a></td>
                </cfif>

The variable is a single alpha character.
