What is in the location custom tag? It doesn't sound like it is an issue with the installation of the tag or you would get an error saying it couldn't find it.
You also don't happen to have a file called location.cfm in the calling directory (or its' parent directories) do you? If so, maybe it is using that template instead. Just a thought. .:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

My entire reason for using <cf_location> was so that I wouldn't have the annoying, and highly unneccessary "cftoken" in my urls. It's much easier to just simply use a custom tag that defaults to "no" than to Find and Replace every single tag with "addToken="no". I'm also trying to use customtags as somewhat of a learning experience since I've not dealt with them much. I don't really consider myself to be a novice with CF, but I'm also not an expert. I have a different customtag that works perfectly fine, but the cf_location does not. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:341187 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
