Alan, I use something similar that logs to a text file (so I can quickly
look at it). I first create a unique "requestID" so that I can identify
various line items as belonging to the same http request, then I add the
fuseaction, datetime, and there's a message field that's optional.
On all my fuses, I use this:
<cfif request.testing>
<cf_LogTest message="#GetCurrentTemplatePath()# called.">
</cfif>
Having something that you can look at is way better than just trying to
figure out what might be wrong.

Well, Tronny writes text to a table in a database. The syntax looks like
this...
<CF_TRONNY P="3" ID="100" C="This is where users would log in...">
P= Project #. I assign each app a unique project number
ID = an arbitrary number you toss into a Tronny tag. Think of it like a line
number in BASIC. You can also write these numbers on a flowchart.
Anyhow, when you run your app, these TRONNY items get logged into a db that
you can then go through and review afterwards. Quite handy, IMHO...
