I had this conversation with Rob Brooks Bilson (I.E. he wrote the O'rielly Programming ColdFusion book and is part maintainer of cflib.org ) during the beta cycle. The thing that you can do with custom tags (When you say cfmodule, I imagine you mean custom tags) that you cannot do with CFCs / user defined functions is create subtags. As an example from the CFML language, you must use cfslider inside a cfform tag. So, cfslider is a subtag of cfform. Or cfqueryparam is a subtag of cfquery. There are some other examples. I have never needed to build a custom tag in this manner, but it is something I cannot do with a CFC or UDF. -- Jeffry Houser | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Need a Web Developer? Contact me!
