Dave/Dan: Thanks for your replies. Do you have any tips to create this serialize function? My CFC has some instantiation variables set (this.numberitems, this.cartType, etc) and those are really the only variables I want to serialize. I tried using CFWDDX with an input of "#variables#" and again with an input of "#this#" but all that was sent back were the functions of the CFC. I am just trying to prevent having to hardcode this variables in my serialize function when I am creating a structure of the data.
