Hi Rick, Yes, this does make sense and I think I already (unsuccessfully) tried the suggestion I put below with the mapping to directly call the customtag -- tells you how many times I have rewritten the process flow for the dang thing.
Both Kevin and Rick are providing me with a solution I have been able to previously and successfully implement but the problem is -- the boss doesn't want to have fuseactions for the authentication. Only parts of our site are password protected and ideally he wants to be able to have a call to the authentication customtag from the app_locals.cfm (fusebox2) for the areas that require authentication. Problem is the authentication processes uses a form to login with and to process that form I can't figure out how to recursively recall the customtag that creates the form instead of have the form action go back to a fuseaction in an index.cfm. I am getting the feeling that what I am trying to do is pretty much impossible though. Won't exactly make the boss man happy but I am glad to hear I haven't been banging my head again the monitor for the last week for nothing :) So, unless someone has another option, look like I go back to the code that I wrote this time last week. At least it is already done - hope I saved that code now that I think about it...... Thanks again. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 2:20 PM To: Fusebox Subject: RE: calling custom tag based on form action?? This <cfform name="login" method="post" action="/customTagDir/tagName.cfm"> will not work. The mapping is not going to make any difference when using a cfform. cfform only give you cf validation and other cf features, but the action is still just a url path. You can use the mapping for cfmodule or just use the cf_customtag syntax. For your example, it sounds like you want to pass the form attributes to the custom tag. I would not do this directly, instead I would send the form to /index.cfm?fuseaction=dologin and in that fuse include a action file that has the cfmodule in it using the attributes passed via the form. Make sense? ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
