Re: try/catch inside a cfscript tag
The first argument to the catch block should be an exception type. I
think you meant to use Any there.

Re: try/catch inside a cfscript tag
My guess would be its not working because trying to add strings is failing at
compile time rather than runtime?
Try changing it to j = j Mid(chars,i,1);

RE: try/catch inside a cfscript tag
Matt, By not working, I mean the code will throw an error, so I want the Catch to trigger and return a false value. This for loop is trivial. I want to make sure I have the correct syntax for the try/catch. When the function does get an error, the catch is not being picked up and I can't figure out why not?

Re: try/catch inside a cfscript tag
Dave, Thanks for the explanation, but Ben's reply is actually the answer to your dilemma. In the catch () block, change 'Exception' to 'Any', and it'll perform as expected.
