Hi
I'm just starting to play with creating CFCs for UI components and I
have a question about style.

Is it better/more convenient/more maintainable/more readable to use
output=true in your CFC methods (so the html goes right into the
output), or to use output=false and have the method return a string,
which the caller then has to display?


The output=true way is pretty easy, but how do you control white space
within the CFC? (Plus, it feels a little funny to have a CFC, even a UI
one, generate output directly.)

The output=false way can be a pain to code (use cfsavecontent a lot in
your methods, I guess?), and how do you succinctly get the returned
content into the output when using <cfinvoke>?

Opinions?

Thanks
        Mark
