Adding Variables In CFOUTPUT

[larrygot]

Can variables be added in CFOUTPUT Like: <CFOUTPUT> #variable1#+#variable2# </CFOUTPUT> and the result would be a display of the total of the two variables. Or, does this have to be done only in a CFSET? If it can be done, what is the correct syntax? Thanks.

<CFOUTPUT> #evaluate(variable1 + variable2)# </CFOUTPUT>

Thanks. That worked.

I'm not sure how new this is... but you can say #variable + variable#..

Though I like #(variable + variable)#... same thing, but the parentheses add some readability for me.

I figured as much, but it is nice... often, evaluate was the only function you could use to add and its a function you should avoid using... So #()# is nice.
