I started this thread, and since then I've looked at a few CF/JS custom
tags, such as CF_DoubleBox. Observations:
* They are called from the body of a document.
* They write HTML directly into the body.
* They write JS directly into the body, surrounding it with
<script></script> tags.
* The JS includes CFML variables (example below) and CFML code:
document.#attributes.form#.SelectedFields#attributes.name#.options[i].sel
ected = false;
So you'd get something like this, where the output of the custom tag is
shown in UPPERCASE:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<form>
HTML CODE
<SCRIPT>
JAVASCRIPT CODE
</SCRIPT>
HTML CODE
</form>
</body>
</html>
I wrote my CF/JS custom tag using CFHTMLHEAD to put the JavaScript
functions into the doc's head, not into the body.
