If you use CFIMPORT (instead of a custom tag registration), you can get around the issue. I usually have a 'tags' folder (watch VC config!) at the root of my applications to house tags local to the application, and then CFIMPORT them via the approot CF mapping. > As for putting it inside a CFC.

UDFs where I need functions, tags (called with CFIMPORT) for where I need widgets, and then just a bunch of simple CFML. Rendering UIs (server-side) is generally a pretty procedural process, so I think a totally procedural paradigm is the best fit for the task. Mix in CFCs, and you suddenly have to deal with return variables rather than text output and no access to the variables scope, among other things. cheers, barneyb -- Barney Boisvert [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.barneyb.com/ Got Gmail?
