I wrote and posted cf_Blackout in the devex years ago. Feed it a time
range and it blacks you out for that range. Its smart enough to cross
midnight (i.e. it understands and 11pm to 6 am blackout). Here's a
very slightly revised version of the posted code.
<!---
<CF_Blackout
BOStart="05:30AM"
BOStop="07:00AM">
The above tag call would return a blackout period beginning at 5:30:00
AM and ending at 7:00:59 AM
--->
<!---
set default response
--->
<cfset caller.BlackedOut="N">
<!---
Were the parameters for the blackout period specified?
--->
<cfif isDefined ("attributes.BOStart") and IsDefined ("attributes.BOStop")>
<!---
Create a time object showing the current time, and format it the same
as the expected input
--->
<cfset variables.ThisTime=CreateODBCTime(now())>
<cfset variables.ThisTime=TimeFormat(variables.ThisTime,'hh:mmtt')>
<!---
Run time comparisons on the start and stop values versus the current
time object
--->
<cfset
variables.CompareStart=DateCompare(attributes.BOStart,variables.ThisTime,"N")>
<cfset
variables.CompareStop=DateCompare(attributes.BOStop,variables.ThisTime,"N")>
<!---
Compare the start and stop times and use the result to run the
following case statement
--->
<cfset
variables.CompareMe=DateCompare(attributes.BOStart,attributes.BOStop,"N")>
<cfswitch expression="#variables.CompareMe#">
<cfcase value="-1,0">
<!---
The expected case: start is before or equal to stop
--->
<cfif (variables.CompareStart eq 0 or
variables.CompareStart eq -1)
and (variables.CompareStop eq 0 or variables.CompareStop eq 1)>
<cfset caller.blackedout="Y">
</cfif>
</cfcase>
<cfcase value="1">
<!---
start is *after* stop. This time span must cross
midnight
--->
<cfif (variables.CompareStart eq 0 or
variables.CompareStart eq 1)
and (variables.CompareStop eq 0 or variables.CompareStop eq 1)>
<cfset caller.blackedout="Y">
</cfif>
</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
</cfif>
