What I typically do is use 2 attributes, name and well, something else, like thename or something. I then use "thename" when calling the custom tag w/ cfmodule. Inside the tag I simply copy the attribute value to name. If you use "wrapper" tags, ie, , don't forget that when using cfmodule, you must properly close all tags. So consider this: You may think the 3rd line closes the layout tag. Actually it closes the foo tag. To make it work right, you simply change the foo call to: This will cause your tag to run twice. If you don't want that to happen, you can add this at the end of your custom tag: In fact, I recommend you always do this so you don't forget. Enjoy. As a general, FYI, I typically always use cfmodule or cf_ so I don't have to worry about name collisions.
