But you _can_ simply ignore the execution mode. A ex-coworker of mine used
to do that. His custom tags would allow you to pass in Mode="end", and if
attributes.mode was detected, he would use that value instead of
ThisTag.ExecutionMode. Of course, I'm not exactly sure what the original
emailer has in mind.
I believe the main reason he did this was to allow for 'closing' custom tags
on different template. Ie, you can't do:
application.cfm: <CF_Page>
onRequestEnd.cfm: </CF_Page>
so he would do:
application.cfm: <CF_Page>
onRequestEnd.cfm: <CF_Page Mode="End">
