Array issue

> ok so you couldn't just point out the mispelling?

Um, hello? What do you think I was doing?

All you had to do was to do what I asked. But you didn't bother.

Sorry, but I have very little patience for people who expect others to help
them, but aren't prepared to put a bit of effort in for themselves.

I am however pleased you finally spotted it, and also seem to have cracked
your subsequent issue also.

Best of luck with the rest of it. I do recommend that you reconsider your
2-D array approach here.

NM I got it.

ok so you couldn't just point out the mispelling?

Now I am getting:

The element at position 1, of dimension 2, of an array object used as part of an expression, cannot be found.

For goodness sake, mate.

What's the name of the variable in this line of code:
<cfset my2darray=arraynew(2)>

And what's the name of the variable in THIS line of code:
<cfset my2darrry[1][1] = "Catalog Title">

Are they the same? No.
Do you think perhaps that might be your problem?

No I was asking you told me to look at my code closely and I was wondering what problem you saw with it as I am unfamilar with arrays and was asking for help.

I think the problem is that you're not actually looking at it, as much as
anything else.

*look at it*.

What is the error you are getting.

Really!!! because even with Adam point out the spot I could not see the
problem the first four times I looked at it. Since I did not really
know for what I was looking. Knowing the error would have guided me
much faster to this issue.

A valid point, but that sure looks like a foobar|hello world example to
practice a new skill and as such is fine. But I agree, if I where
looking at a requirement like this I would probably be looking at using
a structure, aka a hash array. I.E. using strings as index keys rather
then integers.

Please advise what is the problem with my code?

You might want to look closer at your code.

Also, when you have a problem, it's helpful if you tell us what the problem
actually is, not simply say "I have a problem, what is it?".

Thirdly: an array is really not the best data structure for you to be using
here. It looks more like it should be a struct, or perhaps an array of
structures to me.
