Michael,
CF-TALK not getting enough traffic today so you post a "preference"
question? ;)
For what it's worth, I *PREFER* direct error handling because I think
it's more flexible.
You wrote the following code:
<CFIF Not IsDefined('ID')>
An ID is needed
<CFELSEIF Not IsNumeric(ID)>
The passed ID needs to be numeric
</CFIF>
I'd probably actually do:
<CFIF Not IsDefined('ID')>
<cflocation url="someotherpage.cfm">
<CFELSEIF Not IsNumeric(ID)>
The passed ID needs to be numeric
</CFIF>
Generally because if an ID is required on a page, and none was passed
in, I'm just gonna send them to a different page.. but if an invalid ID
was passed I might want to show an error.
I think in order to do *THAT* you'd have to write a lot more code using
cftry/cfcatch.
