Um, I'm a little confused. Isn't the display done with a handler also?
That would certainly make things much easier.

Yes.

In your handler, do
<cfa_handler object="this" return="return">
[bla bla]
<cfset return.ok = True>
</cfa_handler>
then, if you invoke the object with r_stParams, the variable you specify
as r_stParams becomes a structure. The objectIDs that are passed through
cfa_contentobject are keys in this structure, and within those keys are
the 'return' structures that are created by cfa_handler. The easiest way
to find out how exactly this works is by dumping the return structure
after your cfa_contentobject call.
