Actually, you have two choices here:
you can either use pound signs:
<cf_thistag condition="#get_data.summary_id# eq 263012">
(this will dereferenc get_data.summary_id before passing it to the tag)
or reference the caller scope inside the tag:
.....
<cfif evaluate("caller.#attributes.condition#")>

Subject: Re: Custom Tag Question
What that is doing os converting the "get_data.summary_id" to
the actual value before it is past over to the customtag.
One being a string value and the other a value.
Might try to convert the ID to a VAL within the call to the customtag
<cf_thistag condition="VAL(get_data.summary_id) eq 263012">
Not tried it but worth a shot..

All,
I need to pass a portion of a conditional statement to a custom
tag,
like
<cf_thistag condition="get_data.summary_id eq 263012">
then in the custom tag I wanna do something like
<cfoutput query="attributes.queryname">
<cfif attributes.condition neq "">
<cfif #attributes.condition#>
then do this
<cfelse>
otherwise do this
</cfif>
<cfelse>
do this
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
I have tried:
<cfif attributes.condition>
<cfif #attributes.condition#>
<cfif #Evaluate(attributes.condition)#>
adding the cfif into the attribute like <cf_thistag
condition="cfif
get_data.summary_id eq 263012">
and then doing <#Evaluate(attributes.condition)#>
or
<#attributes.condition#>
no luck, i keep getting an error saying cannot convert the value
"263012 eq
263012" to a boolean. Or sometimes I get an incomplete cfif tag error.
I am using MX by the way.
Is this process just not possible in Cold Fusion?
