Hi,

Not sure if this site only focuses on ASP server-side scripting language but I need some assistance with Like command in Coldfusion.

I would like to determine if a user typed in a certain string in a field and decide what do to do with it. This is what I have:

<cfif #LCase(Form.name)# LIKE ('%unknown%') >
do something
<cfelse>
do something else
</cf>

The program doesn't like the LIKE operator. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
RCorr
