Hi All, I'm sorry for the confusion, I was trying to setup a site-wide error handler in cf administration. I did but it doesn't work. This is what did:
1) made a template called handleOurErrors.cfm in /sitewide 2) put /sitewide/handleOurErrors.cfm in cfadmin -> settings -> sitewide box 3) call a bad template to see the results. The code in handleOurErrors.cfm is: "Something is wrong, blah blah....." <cfmail ...> #error.variablesHere# </cfmail> Problem is, cf doesn't like it. It says "error occured in site-wide handler". After noticing that problem, I added a <cferror type="x" template"/sitewide/anotherHandlerFile.cfm"> tag to the errorhandler template. But this time, it doesn't process any coldfusion except displaying the error.variables.
