• Ask Ben: Creating ColdFusion Templates On The Fly

  Posted on Sep 21, 2009 at 10:39 AM

  I just went through this exact same thing. I think this is where reMatch really shines nicely. No matter what your variable holder is (mine was {var}) you can use a regular expression to return an array of all your "variables" in the document. If your variables are named the same as your replacem... read more »
