This isn't my argument - it's yours. I'm not going to get into another endless debate on best practices.
Simply dropping my data into the query attribute doesn't solve my problem, as I need the same thing to happen in the onChange attribute. I'm not aware of a replacement for that, and what I have running is pretty kick-ass from a user POV. I just don't like how my code looks. So I'll ask again - Is there any way I can use a variable in the bind (or onChange) attribute instead of a path to a CFC? That's all I want an answer to. If the answer is yes, how do you do it? If it is not, a simple explanation as to why not. But a simple yes or no will do. > On Wed, Jan 7, 2009 at 6:07 PM, Doug Smidt <[email protected]> > wrote: > > I do want to use a persisted CFC....but I want to use it on the spot, > in the CFGRID tag.
