I've got part of the answer. Its a bug in ColdFusion. In the previous example I created an error just in front of the CFCATCH statement, so the value of error.message is
Invalid token 'c' found on line 6 at column 2. Line 8 is <cfcatch type="Any"> and is the highlighted line on the raw CF error message. If instead I cause the error to the opening cfoutput instead of the closing one just before the cfcatch line, like this: cfoutput>#cgi.http_user_agent#</cfoutput> The cfcatch template doesn't fire, but the site-wide error handler fires properly and doesn't display a raw message. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
