To write back, you use the Caller scope. <cfset caller.result = x>
The preferred method is to make the result key dynamic. That way you don't accidentally overwrite stuff in the caller. So for example: <cf_mytag x=1 y=2 result="result"> <cfoutput>The result was #result#</cfoutput> Inside the CFC you can do: <cfparam name="attributes.result" default="result" type="variableName"> (lots of logic here) <cfset caller[attributes.result] = result> Once done you can then do: <cf_mytag result="resultA"> <cf_mytag result="resultB"> etc On 7/24/06, James Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Just written a quick custom tag and can't remember how to get info out of > them (been a while). > > The tag is called with the <cf_customtag attrib="someVal"> method and it > builds a large structure that I then don't have access to back in the main > template. > > Could someone remind me? > > -- > Jay > > -- > No virus found in this outgoing message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.1.394 / Virus Database: 268.10.3/395 - Release Date: 21/07/2006 > > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/message.cfm/forumid:4/messageid:247479 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
