I've got a simple component that I'm instantiating to maintain a persistent 
variable. Basically, the CFC checks for new entries in a table, and if there 
are any, sets this variable to be the last entry's id. The next time the CFC is 
called, it will check for new entries using this variable as the starting 
point.This works perfectly in Firefox, but not IE or Safari. It appears as 
though the variable is never set/stored, and remains at 0. I'm not sure what 
I'm missing, but I can't find any documentation about why a CFC might behave 
differently in different browsers. What am I missing???

I am instantiating the CFC into a session, using an init() method like so:

<cfset session.customerChat = 
createObject("component","msg").init(chatSession.session)>

My CFC consists of two mehtods only:

        <cffunction name="init" access="public" output="no" returntype="msg">
        <cfargument name="sid" type="numeric" required="yes">
        
                <cfset Variables.ssid = arguments.sid>
                <cfset Variables.lastid = 0>
        <cfreturn this>
    </cffunction>
    
    <cffunction name="getAllMessages" returntype="query" hint="gets all 
messages in chat session">
        
        <cfquery name="rsGetAllMsg" datasource="#variables.dsn#">
            SELECT 
cm.s_id,m_id,message,mtime,cm.o_id,cm.c_id,o_name,c_name,c_question
            FROM chat_messages cm
            LEFT OUTER JOIN chat_operators co
            ON co.o_id = cm.o_id
            LEFT OUTER JOIN chat_customers cc
            ON cc.c_id = cm.c_id
            WHERE cm.s_id = #Variables.ssid#
                AND m_id > #Variables.lastid#
        </cfquery>
        
        <cfif rsGetAllMsg.recordcount neq 0>
            <cfquery name="getlastid" dbtype="query">
                SELECT max(m_id) as maxid
                FROM rsGetAllMsg
            </cfquery>
            <cfset Variables.lastid = getlastid.maxid>
        </cfif>
        
        <cfreturn rsGetAllMsg>
     </cffunction>

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,
