You can create mappings in the admin to point to custom tag paths, and they will be searched for the 1st tag that matches your cf_MYNAME tag, or you could just stick your myname.cfm in the same folder as your application, then do cf_myname and let er rip. In CF8 you can also declare a custom tag path for your application only, so if you had some tags you wanted hidden somewhere and not to be used in your other applications, just use the cfapplication custom tag path instead of setting it in the CF Admin. =)

I'm having a tough time figuring out all the path nonesnse. First off, do I have to put all the files in my ColdFusion8/CustomTags/ directory? And if I do that, why do I need the Application.cfc file that sets a custom tag path? Can there be only one Custom Tag path? In other words, do all my sites under my webroot have to use the ColdFusion8/CustomTags path? Or can I create a directory for each of the sites I have under the wwwroot? Sorry man, I know these questions are pretty silly, but like I said, I've never really messed with custom tags outside of my FigLeaf classes... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
