Cfif len(form.meeting) do other set of cfif

The code below works fine, now I want to add this cfif to check if the form field is empty:

<cfif len(form.meeting)>

</cfif>

I tried wrapping it around the code but it gives me a java error. How can I do this? Thank you:

<cfif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 2>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 3>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 4>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 5>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 4, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 6>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 3, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 7>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 1>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 1, now())>
</cfif>

Correct answer

Hi I worked it out it was to check if the variable was a date:

<cfset meetingDate = trim(form.meeting)>

<cfif not isDate(meetingDate)>

<cfif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 2>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 3>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 4>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 5>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 4, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 6>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 3, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 7>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 1>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 1, now())>
</cfif>

</cfif>

Hi Dan

The cause of this output exception was that: java.lang.NullPointerException.

MEETING= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#meetingDate#" />,

This is the complete code:

<cfset meetingDate = trim(form.meeting)>

<cfif len(form.meeting)>

<cfif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 2>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 3>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 4>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 5>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 4, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 6>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 3, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 7>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 2, now())>
<cfelseif DayOfWeek(Now()) eq 1>
<cfset meetingDate = dateAdd("d", 1, now())>
</cfif>

</cfif>
