Hi Raymond,
Thank you very much for the response.
>First, why the use of cfsilent?
This is a long story. In order to gain some speed by the upgading, we use this
function to repalce a custom tag through a perl script. The cfsilent is left over from
calling the custom tag. Because this is a multilinguge site, the function is used to
display all the UI string depends the language code passed in, and it is called on
every display page. Test results from the 3 developer's machine shows a big speed
gain.
> what do you get if you add isDefined("ct_out")
It returns false.
>I notice you set stringbalue to
application[somekey][somekey]etc. Are you sure that key exists?
Yes, because this is tha same code as on the developer's machine and and the same
database. That is why when we put the function directly in the application.cfm it
works fine. But if use <CFinclude> it got the problem.
Thanks.

Subject: RE: problem with CFFunction return
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?
