Check is always false isXmlAttribute

[nikos101]

    Hi can anyone see why Check is always false isXmlAttribute in this case?

<cfset isNullCurrencyValue = true>
  <cfset CurrencyValue          = "">
 
<cfif isXmlAttribute(structFromParsedXML.XmlAttributes["CurrencyValue"])>
  <cfset isNullCurrencyValue = false>
  <cfset CurrencyValue   = structFromParsedXML.XmlAttributes["CurrencyValue"]>
  </cfif>

Without seeing your XML... no, no-one will be able to see why.

However the variable name sets off an alarm: "strucTFromParsedXML".  Sounds like a struct to me, not an XML object.

cool, things like this always work in my cfm page

<cfqueryparam value="#structFromParsedXML.XmlAttributes["LineDiscountValue"]#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar">

but this is always being set as null:

<cfqueryparam value="#CurrencyValue#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" null="#isNullCurrencyValue#">

but the xml with CurrencyValue sometimes does not have the attribute compare these:

<NewOrders SupplyMargin="1" SalesMargin="2" LineDiscountName="" LineDiscountValue="0"/>

with

<NewOrders SupplyMargin="1" SalesMargin="2" LineDiscountName="" LineDiscountValue="0" CurrencyValue = 200/>

oh and the struct is beign set like this:

<cfset structFromParsedXML = GetDataFromFeed(parsedXML)>

	<cfscript>
		function GetDataFromFeed(xmlFeed)
		{
			var final = arrayNew(1);
			var i = 1;
			var j = 1;
			var children = arrayNew(1);
			allOrders = XmlSearch(xmlFeed, "ROOT/NewOrders");
			return allOrders;
		}
		</cfscript>

Then it is actually an array. Hence:

<cfset arrayFromParsedXML = GetDataFromFeed(parsedXML)>

"ROOT/NewOrders"

Remember that the search is case-sensitive. Therefore, use the exact case of the elements root and newOrders.

Look... we need to see:

a) sample XML

b) the code that creates structFromParsedXML

Not an extract of the XML.  Not a description of how you get it.  The actual XML.

And, similarly, the actual code that creates the variable.

I expect to be able to copy and paste the XML and code you provide, and run it myself here.

See above.

Yeah, OK, thanks for that. I don't mean a function that takes some unknown input and has a bunch of unnecessary code and then does an xmlSearch() and returns that.  I mean the end-to-end code starting with the XML and finishing with the problem.  A repro case, basically.
