Hi all, I am trying to do what seems like a simple task, but it's just not playing ball and I have no idea what I am doing wrong.
I have a block of super-ugly ms-marked up text. There is a particular character sequence I want to get rid of - <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">. Because it has so many special chars in it, the only way I could think of getting it into a variable is by using CFSAVECONTENT. So, I have this: <cfsavecontent variable="ugly"><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"></cfsavecontent> My text block is in a var called #attributes.bodytext#. I then try to remove the above string like this: <cfset attributes.bodytext = replace(attributes.bodytext,"#ugly#","","ALL")> But when I then output both of these vars (I do it in textareas so it displays properly in the browser), attributes.bodytext is unchanged. I have tried replacenocase, rereplace and rereplacenocase, but nothing is working. If anyone can shed any light I would really appreciate it! Ta, K. ______________________________________________________________________ Why Share?
