No, <CFPARAM> writes the variable only if it does not exist, so the
second <CFPARAM> will never get executed. What you have is essentially
this:

<CFIF NOT IsDefined("foo")>
 <CFSET foo="bar">
</CFIF>
<CFIF NOT IsDefined("foo")>
 <CFSET foo="boo">
</CFIF>

Subject: CFPARAM Question


Do subsequent CFPARAMS of the same variable overwrite each other? I
thought so, but they don't seem to.

<CFPARAM NAME="foo" DEFAULT="bar">

 later ...

<CFPARAM NAME="foo" DEFAULT="boo">

If I check for foo it's still "bar" instead of "boo"...

Is there a way to duplicate my intended behavior another way?
