Could you show an example of how you "change one of the methods within the CFC code" to get the effect you claim? count.cfc: <cfcomponent> <cffunction name="one" returntype="string"> <cfreturn "one"> </cffunction> <cffunction name="two" returntype="string"> <cfreturn "two"> </cffunction> <cffunction name="get" returntype="string"> <cfreturn "get"> </cffunction> </cfcomponent> count.cfm: <cfoutput> <cfset session.count = createObject("component","count")> #session.count.one()# #session.count.two()# #session.count.get()#<br /> <cfset session.count.get = session.count.one> #session.count.one()# #session.count.two()# #session.count.get()#<br /> <cfset session.count.get = session.count.two> #session.count.one()# #session.count.two()# #session.count.get()#<br /> </cfoutput> Produces: one two get one two one one two two Sean A Corfield -- http://www.corfield.org/blog/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
