Re: Building and saving a query string
Remove ALL extra characters using cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=yes and then put cfoutput/cfoutput around all characters you want to keep, like this... cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=yes cfsavecontent variable=myquery cfoutputSelect * from contacts where 1 /cfoutput cfif Form.company IS NOT Allcfoutput and company like '%#Form.company#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.title IS NOT Allcfoutput and title like '%#Form.title#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.city IS NOT Allcfoutput and city like '%#Form.city#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.state IS NOT Allcfoutput and state like '%#Form.state#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.country IS NOT Allcfoutput and country like '%#Form.country#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.type IS NOT Allcfoutput and type_of_industry like '%#Form.type#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.size IS NOT Allcfoutput and company_size = #Form.size#/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.department IS NOT Allcfoutput and department like '%#Form.department#%'/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.source IS NOT Allcfoutput and source_of_contact like '%#Form.source#%'/cfoutput/cfif /cfsavecontent cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=no On 1/8/03 1:49 PM, Luis Lebron [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm using the following code to build and display a query string:\ cfsavecontent variable=myquery Select * from contacts where 1 cfif Form.company IS NOT Alland company like '%cfoutput#Form.company#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.title IS NOT Alland title like '%cfoutput#Form.title#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.city IS NOT Alland city like '%cfoutput#Form.city#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.state IS NOT Alland state like '%cfoutput#Form.state#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.country IS NOT Alland country like '%cfoutput#Form.country#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.type IS NOT Alland type_of_industry like '%cfoutput#Form.type#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.size IS NOT Alland company_size cfoutput#Form.size#/cfoutput/cfif cfif Form.department IS NOT Alland department like '%cfoutput#Form.department#/cfoutput%'/cfif cfif Form.source IS NOT Alland source_of_contact like '%cfoutput#Form.source#/cfoutput%'/cfif /cfsavecontent cfoutput#(myquery)# /cfoutput The query string builds and displays correctly.

RE: Building and saving a query string
I ended up writing a function to strip the newlines cffunction name=StripNL returnType=string cfargument name=string type=string cfreturn replace(string, #chr(10)#, , all) /cffunction That did the trick. thanks, Luis -Original Message- From: John Paul Ashenfelter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2003 4:20 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Building and saving a query string Lots of options: 1) StripCR() CF function 2) Regex for stripping extra CR/LF/spaces 3) database functions for text processing 4) search/replace in either cf or db.
