That is no better. It would still try to evaluate the variables user and password in the custom tag's scope and NOT resolve them. >Or you could assign user and password to the request scope, since >request works in tag scopes > >Name='welcome-email' >Value='Thank you for signing up! Your username is #Request.user# and >your password is #Request.password#' Hmm... That would work, but would require adding code to hundreds of places to copy the variables into the request scope before calling the custom tag. There has GOT to be a way to evaluate using my caller's scope instead of my own (custom tag) scope. Slightly better than using request, I can use #caller.user# and #caller.password# inside the value. That would require changing all the values, but at least I wouldnt have to change any code that uses the custom tag. >______________________ >steve oliver >cresco technologies, inc. >http://www.crescotech.com > > >-----Original Message----- >From: Peter Theobald [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2002 11:47 AM >To: CF-Talk >Subject: Help: need to Evaluate() in Caller's context > > >I have some text blocks that can be customized by the client (a >mini-mini document management). >In those blocks they sometimes access variables, for example: > >Name='welcome-email' >Value='Thank you for signing up!
