I've got an (I think) pretty complete essay on how to do this here:


http://www.depressedpress.com/DepressedPress/Content/ColdFusion/Essays/G
IFAsPipe/Index.cfm


It describes how to call the image (and prevent caching from screwing
things up), how to execute CF code on the call and how to return data to
the page without a refresh.


If you can live with requiring _javascript_ then the method works really
well.

Yeah this is what i do.  Just instead of using an iframe create an
invisible
image with the crs as the page you want to run.  you can even for fun
sake
actually return an image through cfcontent.

Or just use an img tag? Works for me.
