The fuselet does not actually generate JavaScript code, it is entirely in ColdFusion and all output content remains in ColdFusion (HTML) format, the trick to the application is in the <SCRIPT> tag. It calls the applications and loads the output content directly on to the page, but it (the CFM file) does not create actual JavaScript content.
As for the view source, no... if you view the source all you see is the SCRIPT tag you type in to reference the application, no additional content. If you try to access the URL directly (the one referenced in the tag) you get an error message, so really the viewer does not see any HTML content. I've used a similar methods in the past for applications, and you actually simply write the ColdFusion code as you would regularly, and the applications calls it and serves it in the HTML page. The only downfall to this method, however is that is uses FUSEACTION calls, so if you plan to use this same method on a CF box (i.e. Loading a banner from a remote server...) it can give problems, Other than that, it just might do the trick he needs.
