Hello all. Long no post. I'm currently working on a module to a an existing, sprawling site that has grown without much planning to a size that was never anticipated.
One of the things I need to do to build my module is switch the existing application.cfm to an application.cfc so that I can use onRequestStart. No big deal But there is one issue that comes up through that. In application.cfm, they have query the DB for some data regarding site-wide advertising. Just standard cfquery stuff. Then on the pages, they use a custom tag to actually display the ads. Now, as soon as I move the queries into the onApplicationStart method in the application.cfc, the trouble starts. The custom tags throw an error. Variables available to it before through the caller scope is now not available anymore. The cheating way out is to just grab the queries, stick them into their own file and use cfinclude on the pages that advertise. Is there a way - without changing the custom tag - to include the queries in the application.cfc that will still let the custom tag have access to the variables? Thanks in advance.
