You don't have implicit access to the request's 'variables' scope inside a CFC instance. You'll need to move the UDF into a scope where the CFC internals can reference (request, application, etc.). Though I wouldn't recommend doing it that way.
A better route would be to put your UDF in a 'utilities' CFC, and then use that CFC in both your current CFC and in your normal page processing. Better encapsulation that way. cheers, barneyb On 9/26/05, Michel Deloux <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all > > It's possible to call cfscript functions(application.cfm's living) > inside cfc component?
