From: Charlie Griefer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tue 7/5/2005 12:18 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Spam:Re: Proper way to refer to form objects if you don't scope a variable, you force CF to have to 'hunt' through the various scopes to find a variable with the given name. this is generally considered to be a bad practice, as it's less efficient than explicitly scoping the variable (thus telling CF exactly where to look), and you could end up with a same-named variable in a higher-priority scope getting referenced instead of the scope you're looking for. if memory serves, the order of precendence is: query arguments variables (local) CGI URL form cookie client so if you have form.email, and myQuery.email, and just do <cfoutput>#email#</cfoutput> with the intention of getting form.email, you're actually going to end up with myQuery.email.
