It is failing at compile time as that is a bad tag, it never gets as far as actually running the code because ity cannot compile it. Try putting a bad(unknown) variable name instead of a bad tag so the code compiles and then as it runs it will hit the cfabort and stop before it gets to the bad variable. If you are trying to error check at runtime for bad tags then you can't because it never gets that far. Hope that answer helps as I have to dash, some midnight fireworks to go to :-) Happy New Year everyone. -- Yours, Kym Kovan mbcomms.net.au ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:340334 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
