Thanks for confirming that! Pages are already striped down substantially and formated conditionally using lots of CSS. There are just these little features here that not every page needs. Maybe 20 out of 40 would use the little script below - then another one maybe 10 out of 40. I am already using a sort of custom framework and have shaved changes to a minimum.
Thanks.... As for Fusebox - I have tried to become interested a few times - but I have found no real benefit over the increased development time for the sites I am using. - but I definately agree with what your saying. jay miller Barney Boisvert wrote: CFINCLUDE is faster than CFMODULE or custom tags, because CFINCLUDE runs in the same memory space as the calling page. Before you start making every page include the same 20 includes, however, I'd see if I could make my pages a little more modular. If every page has the same 20 snippets, then I almost guarentee that you can abstract those down in the a far smaller number of snippets by joining some of them together. You might also look into some 'page assembly framework' to help you out. Fusebox 3 is one (plus a whole lot more), although i'm sure there are more layout-centric options out there. Bottom line, the more work you can do up front to ease later modificaions, the better off you'll be. barneyb -----Original Message----- From: Jason Miller [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: Monday, March 17, 2003 10:56 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Includes Vs Tags - help? Hello list - While developing this page - I have a ton of conditional tiny snippets which I started putting in includes. I heard that includes where faster in most cases than calling custom tags. Before I headed down this road I would like to confirm - Anyone have advice on that? It is really simply pieces of code I am running - it's just that it appears in So many places I need to try to centralize it. Sample pieces are for example something like this - <cfif PrinterFriendly EQ "Yes"> <a href= "javascript:window.print();" <javascript:window.print();> >Print This Page.</a><a href="<cfoutput>#CGI.PATH_INFO#</cfoutput>">Go back here.</a> <cfelse> <a href="<cfoutput>#CGI.PATH_INFO#</cfoutput>?PrinterFriendly=Yes"><img src="/img/icon_NarrowPrintVersion1.gif" hspace="0" vspace="0" border="0"></a> </cfif> Clients are changing their mind so much - if I have to hand code this on 30 pages and change tomorrow 30x - it's a huge hassle. Thanks for any advice. I am only really concerned about speed/processing time.
