ok take 2:-)
i have been tearing my hair out on a bug for a while and i think i found
a bug
in cf 5.0, if people could try this out it would be cool
it works correctly in MX btw
basically, i believe enablecfoutputonly is broken with cfloop, an extra
space is added after a cfoutput, there are simple workarounds listed
below, but they don't work for complex code unless you removed all
whitespace inside the cfloop between tags
i hope with MX and all that if this bug is a bug that macromedia fixes
it :-)
