I'm running a query to get "featured products".

For the call, I'm using:

<cfinvoke    component         =    "components.products"
                   method               =    "select_featured_products"
                   returnVariable    =    "featured_products"/>

and the cffunction is:

<cffunction   name               =    "select_featured_products"
                    displayname    =    "select_featured_products"
                    hint                  =    "Selects Featured Products"
                    access             =    "remote"
                    output              =    "false"
                    returntype        =    "query">
                   
            <cfset var featured_products = "" />           

            <cfquery name="get_featured_products" 
datasource="#application.dsn#">
       
                select        *
                from           products
                where        featured    =    1
               
            </cfquery>
           
            <cfreturn featured_products />

    </cffunction>

The problem I'm running into happens if there are no featured products
and the query is empty.  Then I get this error from CF:

"The value returned from the select_featured_products function is not of 
type query."

How should I modify this CFC (or the call) to work with or without query 
values?

Thanks,

Rick
