Worth mentioning that you can use custom tags in a recursive manner. I have several recursive tree generators on various versions of CF that use custom tags, UDFs and CFC methods. custom tags and CFFUCTION-based UDFs (including CFCs) can have CFQUERY tags in them, although if you're making a query within a recusive call, you're just asking for performance issues. Might be unavoidable for certain situations, but it's just as bad as putting a CFQUERY inside a loop.
