I see what you are going for here Mike.. If you really want to go at this route, the only way CF will let you is if you actually write the output to a file and do include it using cfinclude.
It's dumb, I know... but it will work that way. When you output it now, CF thinks it's just a string and won't try to do anything with it. When you write it to file and cfinclude it, it will go back to treating it as code. To be clear, I don't think my solution is a really good one, I'm just saying it will give you the result you are most likely expecting. =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:301780 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
