Mind
you I stressed that you shouldn't _forget_ the Flash issue. I'm more worried
about the CFC beginner than most of us on this list. ;)
I'm
working on a CFC now that uses a few methods that output. It's primarily to
allow for a 'default' rendering of the application.

Subject: RE: [CFCDev] Display CFC (aka CFC for display purposes)As long as the CFC methods are purely display then the Flash Remoting issue doesn't exist--they can still access the business logic/data cfc which presumably the display cfc is using.As long as the CFC is purely for display then I personally see no problem with using it.I haven't read much about it, but since MachII is all CFC based, does it use CFC's for display or still CFM's?Sam----------------------------------------------

Subject: RE: [CFCDev] Display CFC (aka CFC for display purposes)Actually, there was a very good argument against this pre-RedSky. If you cached the CFC you would lose the ability to output.Another reason to not output... and thiis just something to remember, not really an arguments against using output at all - but if you output instead of returning, Flash Remoting can't use the method. Again, it's not a big huge deal, but it's something you _should_ remember before using output.
