Enshrining bad decisions/bugs in new functions, eh? Nice! And let's see, where were IsNull() and a true null keyword first introduced into CFML ... ? Yes, I'm being flippant but that's a terrible decision in my opinion. It was a bad decision to begin with (I'd call it a bug), yet forget about doing it right, let's just make sure no one ever has to touch old code to get it working on new versions of CF. Might be a good decision for sales, but it's sure as hell not a good decision for the language. It's a bit interesting (not to mention irritating) to me that this mess is an incompatibility with an existing implementation that behaves correctly: http://wiki.openbluedragon.org/wiki/index.php/Compatibility:NULL If only there were a group of some sort that was set up to discuss and make decisions on CFML language issues ... hmm ... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Open BlueDragon Public Mailing List http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en official site @ http://www.openbluedragon.org/ !! save a network - trim replies before posting !! -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
