>All expressions a, b and c are evaluated... ...in an iif() statement even worse!
silly me, cutting and pasting from the macromedia reference like that. http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/funct117.htm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Adam Cameron Sent: 26 May 2005 16:11 To: CFCDev@cfczone.org Subject: RE: [CFCDev] CFC wish-list The IIf function is a shortcut for the following construct: <cfif condition> <cfset result = Evaluate(string_expression1)> <cfelse> <cfset result = Evaluate(string_expression2)> </cfif> No it's not. iif(a,b,c) All expressions a, b and c are evaluated (not in the evaluate() sense, in the "examined / executed" sense) in an iif() statement. Compare: <cfif a> b <cfelse> c </cfif> Only one of b or c will ever be evaluated. -- Adam This email contains confidential information.
