That'll work, as long as you lose those <script> tags (the calling HTML page is already expecting JavaScript), and add the proper CFContent tags to set the MIME headers correctly for JavaScript. There are other nuances our CF_MakeFuselet tag takes care of, particularly the handling of URL variables back and forth to the calling page, but you don't need that if all you're doing is showing static content and not an application. -Ron ______________________________________________________________________ Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation · $99/Month · Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusiona FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
