Ah yes, that was the word. However, you are incorrect. You can
generate output from a method with output=false. It just gets
discarded. This is an example:
<cffunction name="test" output="false" returnType="string">
<cfset var str = "">
<cfsavecontent variable="str">
<cfoutput>
#now()#
</cfoutput>
</cfsavecontent>
<cfreturn str>
</cffunction>
<cfoutput>#test()#</cfoutput>
I do this all the time when I'm creating a string that is complex.
It's easier to use cfsavecontent then a bunch of foo & goo & etc.
