Working with Nested Arrays / Structures
I've been trying to create a complex data management system using nested arrays and structures. I've been using the example here:
http://www.macromedia.com/v1/handlers/index.cfm?id=18894&method=full
So far, I understand how to create an array that references a structure like this:
<CFSCRIPT>
MyCart = ArrayNew(1);
OneCD = StructNew();
OneCD.Title = "Cookin at the Plugged Nickel";
OneCD.Artist = "Miles Davis";
OneCD.Genre = "Jazz";
OneCD.Cost = "15.00";
OneCD.Quantity = "1";
AddIt = ArrayAppend(MyCart, OneCD);
AnotherCD = StructNew();
AnotherCD.Title = "Lady in Satin";
AnotherCD.Atrist = "Billie Holiday";
AnotherCD.Genre = "Blues";
AnotherCD.Cost = "14.00";
AnotherCD.Quantity = "2";
AddIt = ArrayAppend(MyCart, AnotherCD);
</CFSCRIPT>
The link above also makes reference to a nested array that is more than one level deep. My question is, can someone give me an example of how to build a structure like this?
Customer.ShoppingCart[2].T

Whoops, that's not right...

Wheee!
Thanks for your help. Just learning structs in arrays and I assume it has to drive you crazy for a while before you get it.

That's way to complicated even if you could figure it out.
How about this:
<CFSCRIPT>
MyCart = ArrayNew(2);
OneCD = StructNew();
OneCD.Title = "Cookin at the Plugged Nickel";
OneCD.Artist = "Miles Davis";
OneCD.Genre = "Jazz";
OneCD.Cost = "15.00";
OneCD.Quantity = "1";
SongTitle = ArrayNew(2);
Album = StructNew();
Album.Track = "1";
Album.SongTitle = "Stella By Starlight";
MyCart[1][1] = OneCD;
MyCart[1][2] = Album;
</CFSCRIPT>
