I would upgrade CF to 7 or 8 it but it's client's decision, unfortunately:( I have fixed that by changing variables scope to "this" scope. It works but you know about the disadvantages of using this.instance rather than variables.instance. It's just a fix to get it works but I'm not quite happy and can't explain why variables.instance is visible from outside.

If this is just 6, id say upgrade. Your right, it shouldn't happen.

I found that because <cfset variables.instance = StructNew() /> is declared in both objects and when I created the second object, this variables.instance overrides the first variables.instance was created in the first one. To me, it's really really weird as the variables scope exists only within that object. Using CFMX 7 is ok, the CF6 causes this problem. I am running in Unix. Any help is appreciated. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get involved in the latest ColdFusion discussions, product development sharing, and articles on the Adobe Labs wiki. http://labs/adobe.com/wiki/index.php/ColdFusion_8 Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:291308 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
