Nested Loops
Like the <cfif> and <cfswitch> statements, loops can be nested. Nesting loops lets you create extremely powerful code, as long as you are very careful in constructing the loops. Listing 9.13 contains a practical example of nested loops, using three loops to display a table of Web browser–safe colors (seen in Figure 9.10). Save the code as loop3.cfm.
Figure 9.10. Displaying the Web browser–safe color palette requires the use of three nested loops.
