I am building a new site from scratch and am trying (for the first time) to
implement it entirely in fusebox. I am however hitting a few minor problems.

I am using a syntax like this:

fuseaction = "main.something"
fuseaction = "search.somethingelse"
fuseaction = "basket.somethingnew"
etc

from a main fusebox. Are there any problems with this approach?  It seems
that I am doing a couple of cfswitch statements before any real page
processing occurs.  Is this a big hit or not?

Also how should I call an  underlying fusebox?  It seems the only way is to
use cfmodule, but is there any other way?

Now to the crux of the problem
------------------------------

I am trying to create a front page in fusebox that contains any number of
the above sub-fuseboxes, eg "LeftNav", "Search", "TopNav" etc (see you get
the idea).

What is the best way of doing this?  Is it to hard code a front page with
cfmodules in it?  How do you pass a specific variable to a specific fusebox?
Do you have to keep all fuseactions for all fuseboxes up to date (ie pass in
leftnav.fuseaction, search.fuseaction etc) for every single page call as
well as passing the actual fuseaction you want?

(Terrible picture of a web page but let's face it, they're all the same!)

--------------------------------
|           Top Nav            |
--------------------------------
|   |                      |   |
|   |                      | R |
| L |                      | i |
| e |                      | g |
| f |       Centre         | h |
| t |        Page          | t |
|   |                      |   |
| N |                      | N |
| a |                      | a |
| v |                      | v |
|   |                      |   |
--------------------------------
|          Bottom Nav          |
--------------------------------

It seems that I need to pass in five variables for a page like this so that
the cfmodule statements can have the correct information.  Maybe it would be
easier to do it another way?

If this doesn't make sense I will try to explain better in a second email,
otherwise, please try and go along with that!

Any help would be appreciated.

Paul
