what's wrong with this little script??

snix1 · Mar 13, 2001

We are running CF 4.5 with SQL Server. When I run the following script, I get multiple (identical) e-mails, many with the same subject. Is there anything wrong with my script? Is there a problem using <cfmail> within a <cfloop>?

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>

<body>

<cfoutput>doing the loop<br></cfoutput>
<cfloop index="counter" from="1" to="10">
<cfmail to="snix@fallcomm.com"
from="ceser@icesa.org"
subject="TEST MESSAGE and counter=#counter#">
This is a test message.
</cfmail>
</cfloop>
</body>
</html>

Thanks much for your help!

It appears the loop is sending the email 10 times, remove it
from the loop.

Thanks for the input. I get over 100 e-mails from this thread! I know I should get 10.

snix1, You're getting lots of email, but you're saying you're not getting exactly 10, and their subjects aren't unique .. 1 2 3 ... 10 ?

Is that right?

I'm confused...
I cut and pasted the above code and saved it to a file, ran it, and got 10 emails, each with a unique subject (...1,...2,...3, etc.)

are you not getting the same results?

Thanks to everyone for responding. I spoke with Allaire and this is a bug...we need to install a service pack which will be done next week.
