I managed to get it to work. It seems that the variable first mentioned in <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', 0)"--> gives an error when used in: <!--#if "answer == 'Y'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', REQUEST['count_yes']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> and not in <!--#if "answer == 'Y'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> The rest of the variables can be incremented without problems. This is really strange?! I have it now working as: <!--#comment--> Calculate the vote percentage <!--#/comment-> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_dummy', 0)"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', 0)"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_no', 0)"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_all', 0)"--> <!--#in sql_distinct_votes--> <!--#if "cnt == 1"--> <!--#if "answer == 'Y'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', REQUEST['count_yes']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> <!--#if "answer == 'N'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_no', REQUEST['count_no']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_all', REQUEST['count_all']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> <!--#/in--> <!--#comment--> Now display the results <!--#/comment--> <h2> Total : <!--#var "REQUEST['count_all']"--> votes</h2> <ul> <li>Yes : <!--#var "REQUEST['count_yes']"--> votes (<!--#var "_.round(((REQUEST['count_yes']+0.0)/REQUEST['count_all'])*100,1)"-->%)</li> <li>No : <!--#var "REQUEST['count_no']"--> votes (<!--#var "_.round(((REQUEST['count_no']+0.0)/REQUEST['count_all'])*100,1)"-->%)</li> </ul> pan@aster.net writes:

Hi guys,

I hope someone can help me with this one, because it's almost driving me crazy :-)

The following code fails with an error for count_yes:

<!--#comment--> Calculate the vote percentage <!--#/comment->

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', 0)"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_no', 0)"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_all', 0)"-->

<!--#in sql_distinct_votes--> <!--#if "cnt == 1"--> <!--#if "answer == 'Y'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', REQUEST['count_yes']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> <!--#if "answer == 'N'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_no', REQUEST['count_no']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_all', REQUEST['count_all']+cnt)"--> <!--#/if--> <!--#/in-->

<!--#comment--> Now display the results <!--#/comment-->

<h2> Total : <!--#var "REQUEST['count_all']"--> votes</h2>

<ul> <li>Yes : <!--#var "REQUEST['count_yes']"--> votes (<!--#var "_.round(((REQUEST['count_yes']+0.0)/REQUEST['count_all'])*100,1)"-->%)</li> <li>No : <!--#var "REQUEST['count_no']"--> votes (<!--#var "_.round(((REQUEST['count_no']+0.0)/REQUEST['count_all'])*100,1)"-->%)</li> </ul>

When I change

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', REQUEST['count_yes']+cnt)"-->

to

<!--#call "REQUEST.set('count_yes', cnt)"-->

it works as expected, no errors, but that's not what I want :-( I've tried, superstitiously, to change count_yes to several other things, but no luck. It always gives me an error for the vairable I substitute for count_yes. The strangest thing is that the same code works for count_no and count_all ?!?

Any ideas?
