Is there a lot of overhead with throwing an exception and trapping it? If it happens a lot it might adversely affect performance.
I have a site wide udf called mailDebug() that takes a string arg and then 9 optional args of type any... the string arg is called "source" so I know where the debug output is coming from, and then I just pass in whatever variables or variable scopes I want to have dumped in the email. The source usually just contains the name of the name of the current template (cfm/cfc) and if applicable, the name of the current method. So the mailDebug() method doesn't "know" who called it, it 'just knows what the source argument is. rick Ben Nadel wrote: > Dammit Tom! That's Brilliant!
