I use cfparam for a number or reasons:
It helps avoid errors by cfparam all your varaibles so they will always be
defined.
I also saves the hasle of having to do something like this:
<cfif not isdefined("url.var")>
<cfset url.var=0>
</cfif>
instead use:
<cfparam name="url.var" default=0>
Which will do the same thing.
Hope that helps.

Subject: CFPARAM or CFSET
Could anybody school me in the difference between using CFPARAM and CFSET.
I see CFPARAM all the time, but the little documentation that I've seen
about CFPARAM makes it sound just like CFSET.
