I don't know if I understand you fully, but are you saying that the
beggining <cfoutput> is in one template and the </cfoutput> in another? As
far as I understand, you can't do this. There has to be a matching
</cfoutput> for every <cfoutput> in the same template.
FWIW, I generaly only use cfoutput in dsp_ and act_ files. I do however
wrap the whole file in <cfoutput> (when it's needed) and use <cfloop> for
all of my queries. I don't know if it's really a performance hit. Is there
some documentation on this? Wouldn't it be just as much a performance hit
to open and close <cfoutput> 40 times rather than once? It sure is easier
to code, read, and debug with only one instance of <cfoutput>

I'm curious about this one... I mean, I'm thinking, this is an issue that I
do think could be considered as part of the Fusebox methodology.
I see four possibilities here:
1: Apply CFOUTPUTs tersly, only around specific portions of code that need
it
2: Apply CFOUTPUTs around large blocks of code, which may or may not need it
everywhere
3: Apply CFOUTPUTs around the entire template, with only CFMAILs and other
anti-CFOUTPUT functions being left out.
4: Apply CFOUTPUTs at the index.cfm level, and explicitly escape out
anti-CFOUTPUT tags by starting with </CFOUTPUT> and ending with <CFOUTPUT>
to restart the CFOUTPUT string
Now, lets think of it like this.... here is an idea, so I'm lookin' for
input, advice, what-have-you...
A Proposal For Structuring a Fusebox App So That Everything Is Implicitly
CFOUTPUTted
PART 1: The Index.cfm file
You take your index.cfm, and make it look like this...
<CFOUTPUT>
<CFSWITCH ....>
{all the CFCASE statements for fuseactions}
</CFSWITCH>
</CFOUTPUT>
PART 2: Working with Query Recordsets
Tell yourself and anybody concerned that they are to use <CFLOOP QUERY=..>
instead of <CFOUTPUT QUERY=..>
PART 3: Dealing with anti-CFOUTPUT code, such as CFMAIL
Encapsulate all code by STARTING with a </CFOUTPUT> and ENDING with a
<CFOUTPUT> to restore the CFOUTPUT nest.
The End...
