Actually, if I modify the code as follows, I can get rid of the space
(smash all the preceding and following tags together). However, this
brings up another question that I asked a while ago: Is there still no
slick way to do a <cfscript> version of <cfparam>? Also, is the
smashing together of tags (a bit messy) the only way to accomplish my
original goal?
Here is the working code:
<cfsetting enableCFoutputOnly="yes"><cfparam name="1"
default=""><cfparam name="2" default=""><cfparam name="3"
default=""><cfscript>
FinalValue = result_of_a_bunch_of_processing;
writeOutput(FinalValue);
</cfscript><cfsetting enableCFoutputOnly="no">
Thanks,
Jamie
