At the top of your file, put:
<Cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="Yes">
Then for the rest of the page request (or until you do <Cfsetting
enablecfoutputonly="No">), ONLY stuff that's between <cfoutput> and
</cfoutput> will get sent out. So this:
<Cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="Yes">
<!--- SillyPage.cfm --->
<Cfoutput>This is your page</cfoutput>
This isn't!
<!--- End SillyPage.cfm --->
Would result in only 17 bytes of output ("This is your page"), plus
headers. The "This isn't!" part would never get sent out.
Hope that helps!
Best regards,
Zac Bedell
