Chuck...
Are you using MG3? If so, you should look at the new copyToScope() and
event.linkto() functionality. It's designed to replace the "myself" code
that you included below.
For example instead of having to do all those viewState.GetValue calls,
you could put this code at the top of your page:
<cfset event.copyToScope("variables",
"xe.reset,xe.delete,xe.ignore,xe.unignore") />
That single line will copy all those values from the event object into
the variables scope of your view page. Then you can use the
event.linkTo() method to build your URLs like so:
<cfset resetPage = event.linkTo( xe.reset ) />
<cfset deletePage = event.linkTo( xe.delete ) />
You can then continue to use the resetPage, deletePage and other
variables like you have been before.
Hope that helps,
Dan
