I wouldn't recommend using .udf as a file extension -- folks here have used
inc ( which is a windows networking file extension iirc ) and .zml (
zoned-in markup language ) and it causes problems... I certianly advocate
descriptive file and directory names, but I'd go for something like:
udf_days2xmas.cfm
or better yet
mysite/cflib/days2xmas.cfm
or
mystie/_udf/days2xmas.cfm
and make sure all your udf's are in that directory. In the long run you'll
be gratefull for your udf's being organized this way.
