Are you asking if you can write wrapper tags? If so, yes, you can:
<cf_foo>
blah blah blah
</cf_foo>
You can access the crap on the inside. You can even do:
<cf_foo>
<cf_goo>
<cf_zoo>
</cf_goo>
</cf_foo>
and all the children/parents/etc can access each other.
You can get super-complex. :)

> Is it possible to write custom tags in well-formed XML? The

> parsing to create documented views by simply pointing to the
> custom tag.
>
> Will this render the tags unusable? For example:
>
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <CustomTag name="makebold" description="This tag makes the
> passed on text attribute bold.">
> <CFPARAM default="YourText" name="text"
> type="string" hint="The text passed in that will be made bold.">
> <CFOUTPUT><b>#attributes.text#</b></CFOUTPUT>
> </CustomTag>
>
> Notice I added attributes to the CFPARAM tags (attributes I'm
> assuming CFMX will ignore?) as well as wrapped the whole
> thing in a root element. What will CF do with this?

> Of course, I could just try this myself - but I'm too damn lazy. Heh.
