First, why the use of cfsilent? Is it because you discover that calls to
cffunction-based UDFs generate white space? Simply add output=false to
your cffunction tag and that will go away. (This assumes your UDF isn't
mean to output directly, which it should not do 99% of the time.)
So, what do you get if you add isDefined("ct_out"), does it return
false? Also, I notice you set stringbalue to
application[somekey][somekey]etc. Are you sure that key exists?

> We have a very simple function which returns a string:

> <CFARGUMENT name="VarName" type="string" required="true">
> <CFARGUMENT name="Pcode" type="string" required="true">
> <CFARGUMENT name="suff" required="true">
> <CFARGUMENT name="LgCode" default="#g_LG#" type="string"
> required="false" > <CFSET var
> stringvalue=application["lg#lgcode#"][pcode][varname]>
> <CFIF suff NEQ ""><CFSET Stringvalue= StringValue &
> suff></CFIF> <CFRETURN Stringvalue> </cffunction>

> Checkout the view source found out that the return value is
