That's a good point Robert - but I must admit the only time I don't scope a
variable is when I cfoutput it in a query. So I would just reference the
column name. I know, I know, I'm being a bad boy - ok fine I'll stand in the
corner for 30 mins... Happy? No... What else do you want from me!
Actually, what if CF created a temporary local scope for you within the
cfoutput. That would be cool.
So this would work:
<cfoutput query="Instance.returnQuery()">
#instanceQuery.column1#
</cfoutput>
Cheers,
Baz

Subject: Re: [CFCDev] CFOUTPUT Query returned from CFC
If you used a method like that, how would you expect to go about
referring to the query inside the output/loop?
For example:
<cfset instanceQuery= Instance.returnQuery() />
<cfoutput query="instanceQuery">
#instanceQuery.column1#
</cfoutput>
But if I did this:
<cfoutput query="Instance.returnQuery()">
...
</cfoutput>
Sense I don't have a reference to the query itself inside the output,
how would I output the query's information?
