When you say "custom tags" are you referring to CFX_Tag or CF_Tag. If they are CFX_Tags then they would need to be loaded into the ColdFusion administrator by your hosting provider. If it's a CF_Tag then you can place the [tagname].cfm file into the same folder as the file calling it and it should work, though you could end up with multiple copies of the file. In this situation, I would convert the tag calls to use CFMODULE instead of the tag directly so you can specify a path and keep only one copy of the file. -- Justin Scott | GravityFree Network Administrator 1960 Stickney Point Road, Suite 210 Sarasota | FL | 34231 | 800.207.4431 941.927.7674 x115 | f 941.923.5429 www.GravityFree.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:317467 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
