It isn't that bad. but it depends on how much flexibility you want
your forms to have.
I can't give you our custom tag. but it goes a little something like :
<cfcase value="checkbox">
<cfloop list="#attributes.defaultvalue#" index="i">
<input name="#attributes.name#" id="#i#" value="#i#"><label>#i#</label>
</cfloop>
</cfcase>
watch your id's. you may want to have a counter in there and
manipulate the data or something. or you could end up with a invalid
value.
but you can put other attributes in there as well. Jon added #jscode#
to it aswell so it can save custom javascript eg: "onBlur='doThis();
onFocus='doThat();'"
