"If a CFC method that you access using the URL displays output directly, the user's browser shows the output. (You can use the cffunction tag output attribute to disable displaying output.) If the CFC returns a result using the cfreturn tag, ColdFusion converts the text to HTML edit format (with special characters replaced by their HTML escape sequences), puts it in a WDDX packet, and includes the packet in the HTML that it returns to the client."
