Actually that code was the entire contents of my create tag. But based on
your second response, I have a new question. :)
If I shouldn't actually create the object in the create handler (which would
explain my infinite looping btw), can/should I still create the embedded
objects that go into my custom object? The reason I ask this is that when
using the default create handler, I was getting objects with embedded
objects that were not structs, but were the number 0 instead.
I'd hate to have to check the struct everytime the edit handler is called to
see if the object has just been created and now needs to have the child
objects embedded.
Thanks for all the help Ray,
Nate

Subject: RE: Infinite Looping When Creating an Object
FYI, this brings up some interesting points:
1) The create handler should NOT be used to create the object. When you do:
<CFA_ContentObjectCreate ...>
Spectra itself will call your create handler AFTER it makes the object. You
should use the Create handler to do stuff like logging the create, or
initialization(sp), etc.
Ditto for the delete handler. When you do:
<CFA_ContentOjbectDelete>
Spectra will call your delete handler, but your delete handler should NOT
have another coDelete in it. (I made that mistake back in the old days of
Spectra. :)
