Thanks all - the built in function is exactly what I needed. I am fairly new to
CF so I will definitely spend time learning the functions. Thanks again.

Whenever I'm working with people relatively new to CF my number one
piece of advice is to become very familiar with the function reference
so you don't spend a bunch of time re-writing functions th

You may need to deal with the scenario of cell having more characters
than the value of fill. Also, if
If you're displaying this in a browser, then HTML is likely the culprit,
condensing multiple spaces into just one. Use non-breaking spaces (or wrap
your output in tags) to get HTML to output multiple spaces.

Hi Josh, a couple of things. First, ColdFusion has the LJustify(),
RJustify(), and CJustify() functions which will do exactly what you're
trying to accomplish already built in.
Second, your function (
I'm attemping to create a function that adds spaces either in front of or
behind a string. For example, I want this "test" string to have 6 spaces after
it, plus the 4 characters in "test" for a total of 10 characters. I have an
"align" variable for both left and right alignment for the spaces.
I am trying to follow what you are wanting to accomplish with this.
You are setting htmlcontent to the string value 'htmlcontent' plus the
current 'count' value.
Then you are sending the htmlcontent1 variable (which doesn't appear to
exist) to the ToScript function? I think htmlcontent1 is part o
A side note; there's no need to maintain that 'COUNT' variable as CF does
this for you with the currentRow property of the cfquery object, so:

I've got most of this working. I'm just having a hard time getting the cf

to parse out when naming the javscript function. Everything works fine except
when I try and wrap a cf variable around the function name. Any ideas? Thanks.
Also can anyone recommend a good way to troubleshoot

I want to make sure I clarify that CFScript blocks and UDF functions are
two completely different things.
In a UDF, you can only return a single value. That value can be a
complex value (Array or Structure), though.
CFScript blocks don't explicitly return any values, although you can

I'm checking the value of a date to make sure it's legal. (I've had no end

This is, sadly, one of the worst documented features of ColdFusion.
