Actually, you can use operators to set a variable to a boolean value if you want to... <cfset variables.isCorrectPW = form.password eq myQuery.password> .and then use that variable as a boolean during logic operations... <cfif not variables.isCorrectPW> <cflocation url="login.cfm"> </cfif> Why would someone want to do this? Not sure.. I've never had a use for it personally, but the functionality is there if you need it. Simply saying <cfset 1 eq 1> will have the expression be evaluated to true, but the result will simply be tossed out, as was happening to the original poster. -Justin Scott, Lead Developer Sceiron Internet Services, Inc. http://www.sceiron.com ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
