Paul,
You have uploadImage() set to return a string, not to place the
"newImageName" variable in the variables scope. A couple of
suggestion, depending on which way you want to go:
1) If you want to return the string back to the function that calls
the uploadImage() simply do <cfset newImageName =
imageHandler.uploadImage(form)/> and your "newImageName" variable
will be available. You should also var scope that variable in both
functions.
2) If you want to place the "newImageName" variable into the
variables scope of the imageHandler, you should set the returntype of
uploadImage() to void and do a
<cfset variables.newImageName = file.serverFile />
HTH,
Jon
