add this: <cfoutput>#isSimpleValue(session.test)#</cfoutput> <-- YES <cfdump var="#session#"> <-- error
which is weird because as of CFMX, creating a variable with a dot in the name will implicitly create a struct (soo <cfset foo.bar = "123" /> would create a struct named 'foo' with a key named 'bar' and equal to 123). I guess the fact that 'session' is a reserved word prohibits CF from creating it as a struct so you get a simple value of "session.test" equal to 'true'. so basically the bottom line is... you're not manipulating the "session" (which doesn't even exist).
