sorry, pet peeve: too many pounds, hashes, wahtever you want to call them.
without thinking about whether the function is correct or not, not one of
those #s is necessary:
<cfset compare =
ABS(DateDiff('d',DayofYear(targ),DayofYear(implm)))>
This article (by Ben Forta) is a little old, but the principles still apply:

Sorry, I meant:
<cfset compare =
ABS(#DateDiff(d,#DayofYear(#targ#)#,#DayofYear(#implm#)#)#)>

Use the ABS funcitons, which will return the positive value. The number is
correct,
Try this: ABS(<cfset
compare=#DateDiff(d,#DayofYear(#targ#)#,#DayofYear(#implm#)#)#>)
Im not sure on the pounds, but play with it.
Lemme know if this helps.

Subject: RE: Datediff
I am having problems comparing two dates.
My question is how to compare two dates that come from different years. For
example if I use the code below to compare a date of 12 Nov 2001 and 28 Feb
2002 to get the date difference I get -257 days.
<cfset compare=#DateDiff(d,#DayofYear(#targ#)#,#DayofYear(#implm#)#)#>
<cfset comparison_list=#ListAppend(comparison_list,#compare#)#>
I have tried other means of doing this but with no success.
Can somebody suggest the correct code to use to compare dates that overlap
years?
Thanks in advance,
Declan maher

:) not enough coffee
A <TABLE> will now SHOW on the browser screen until it reaches the </table>
Because it has to read through the whole table to generate Widths and such
but on large tables that can slow down the display of tables by a few
seconds.
Now there is a CODE you put into the page or the table tag that lets the
Browser know this is a PREDEFINED size and to display it on the fly I forget
what that code is any idea?
Thanks all,
