If you are on CF8+, then my understanding is that locking READ functions is no longer required. If you're still on CFMX 7, then, yes, cfif arrayLen(session.customer.custerrors) is a READ function and should be locked. Or was it is CFMX 7 that made the READ lock less important?

On CF8, following Charlie's response earlier, you do NOT need a READ lock, unless you think there could be race conditions (a pending Ajax call that writes the var you're trying to read, for example). If you DO need to lock, then, yes, the lock would go *outside* of the CFIF statement, since
