CFOUTPUT and Nested Loops and Grouping
I have a page that has four queries. One gets a list of council names, the other three get documents that are either live, archived or awaiting approval. So, as you can see by my code below, I have X tables depending on how many councils there are. Each table group has three rows that have the links to the documents. It is working well except that each council shows ALL of the documents that are getting called. For instance, the first two table groups should have no documents since there are none for that council, and the third table group should have documents. I tried to do a cfoutput inside the loop using a group attribute, but no joy. How to do this? #Name#'s Bylaws (current, temp and past) Current Bylaw #Bylaw_Name# #DateFormat(Create_Date, "mm/dd/yy")# Archived Bylaws #Arch_Bylaw_Name# #DateFormat(Create_Date, "mm/dd/yy")# Pending Bylaw #Temp_Bylaw_Name# #DateFormat(Create_Date, "mm/dd/yy")# Thanks, Bruce Sorge Contractor City of Los Angeles Department of Neighborhood Empowerment ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

RE: Best Practice on using/optimizing cfoutput and cfloops
Hi Steve, That KB article http://www.macromedia.com/v1/Handlers/index.cfm?ID=2497&Method=Full is for CF Server 3.1... And as people have pointed out, there was a shift in 4.5 to make the cfoutput/cfloop difference nominal. So I'd consider that information, well... dated. We tend to put a at the top of every page and begin all our CF processing and then put a cfoutput ride before we start any HTML output. Then close cfoutput at the bottom of the page. Everything inside the output is then available for CF use and we don't have to think about whether we need to add yet another cfoutput tag around one line here or there. All queries are cflooped and we find performance to be just fine. Maybe we would save a millisecond or two with opening and closing cfoutput tags throughout the page but it's not really worth it.

Re: Best Practice on using/optimizing cfoutput and cfloops
In CF5, it's not supposed to matter if you do cfloop or cfoutput. I've done some testing with getTickCount() to compare the two and they seem to be equivalent. I remember back in the version 3 days where cfloop would be slow as molasses. - Original Message - From: Dave Carabetta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Friday, February 1, 2002 1:32 pm Subject: Re: Best Practice on using/optimizing cfoutput and cfloops > I would actually disput that claim.

RE: Best Practice on using/optimizing cfoutput and cfloops
The issue with Cfoutput is that it parses everything between the two tags looking for CF variables to output -including any HTML that might be between the tags. If you have a lot of HTML between your tags, and just a few variables, you are making CF wade through a lot of code that it doesn't need to. However, the penalty in many cases is negligable and should be ignored in favor of the ease of use (don't you hate going through and bracketing every little thing in CF output tags?). In our own testing we have been unable to prove that is slower than a comparable cfloop - but we do make an effort to make the HTML that is between a tags reasonably lean.

Re: Best Practice on using/optimizing cfoutput and cfloops
OK, I finally found some explanations in the archives. Careful about the URL wrapping. One thing to keep in mind as I've read through some of the old posts, I think the answer depends on two things: 1.) CF Server version Apparently, CF 4.0 and below proved that CFOUTPUT was quicker, but the reverse is true for 4.5+. 2.) Size of record set For small record sets, the difference is negligible. However, for larger record sets, CFLOOP wins.
