In light of this discussion, how about lots of cfif statements buried in html...?

Johnny Just to clarify, are you referring to lots of if statements in code in general or lots of if statements in a fusebox switch file? If you were referring to the latter then I would agree and say that in fusebox - you should not have the majority of your logic within the switch file..is that what you meant?

Why are they bad if they are needed. I have worked on a lot of applications where a good number of if statements were needed all over the place... why is this bad? How does fusebox eliminate the need for conditional logic? Are you using FB4? FB4.1?... <if condition=""></if> = <cfif></cfif>???? Sometimes a case/switch structure is a better choice over cfif/cfelseif/cfelse/cfif; usually when there would be more than one (1) cfelseif, otherwise they perform the same.
