can i access cf variable with jscript ?

can i access cf variable with jscript ?

definitly YES

var how_many_rows = <cfoutput>#my_query.recordcount#</cfoutput>
does work

document.all.form_name.textbox1.value in your jscript part is read the same as #form.textbox1#

you can even use that to build dynamic jscript code
function foo(){
<cfif isDefined("the_name")>
... some code1 ...
<cfelse>
... some code 2 ...
</cfif>
}

view-source:your_file.cfm will show

if name is defined
function foo(){
... some code1 ...
}


but you can't use jscript values in cf code - except if you write a cf tag : cf is SERVER side whereas jscript is CLIENT side
