Hi guys
The problem is that thisTag.generatedcontent only captures content that would be
destined for the output buffer. If enablecfoutputonly="YES" has been called,
thisTag.generatedContent is non-existent, unless the tag is called between CFOUTPUT
tags.
Walk it through -
1) The very first line in the FB3 core file (fbx_fusebox30_CFXX.cfm) sets <cfsetting
enablecfoutputonly="YES">
2) Sections seven and nine of the FB3 core file includes fbx_settings.cfm.
enablecfoutputonly is still YES, so any plain text is just ignored
3) Section ten includes fbx_switch.cfm, but does it like this -
<cfoutput><cfinclude template="#FB_.fuseboxpath#fbx_Switch.cfm"></cfoutput>
so THAT's why <Cf_querysim> works when included from fbx_switch, but not from
fbx_settings
Workaround - whenever you use a <cf_querysim> tag, nest it inside a <Cfoutput> block,
like this
<cf_querysim>
<cfoutput>
qry_myquery
a,column,list
your|query|data
</cfoutput>
</cf_querysim>
or even
<cfoutput>
<cf_querysim>
qry_myquery
a,column,list
your|query|data
</cf_querysim>
</cfoutput>
Hope that helps,

Subject: RE: QuerySim custom tag and Fusebox 3
I just tried it out without problems. Here's what I have: A home circuit
with a "ShoppingCart" circuit beneath it (as well as some other ones).
In the FBX_Settings.cfm file of the ShoppingCart circuit, I <cfinclude>
a page that has a QuerySim, CartSummary, on it. Then, in the
FBX_Switch.cfm file for ShoppingCart, I respond to the fuseaction,
"display" by <cfinclude>ing dsp_ShoppingCart.cfm, a file that
<cfoutput>s the CartSummary recordset. It works without a hitch. Is this
the sort of thing that is failing for you?

Subject: RE: QuerySim custom tag and Fusebox 3
I'm actually using the "#request.self#?fuseaction=#xfa.something#"
notation, i was just writing it in short hand by typing
"..../index.cfm". That was confusing on my part, sorry.
I have looked into the problem a little more, and here is what i have
found. It seems that QuerySim, or any custom tag that uses
thistag.generatedcontent, will work fine if it's in a fuse included
through fbx_switch.cfm, in any circuit.
However, I have one template using QuerySim that i include through
fbx_settings.cfm. I have found that, when included through
fbx_settings.cfm, thistag.generatedcontent turns up empty, for ANY
custom tag i try to use. I also found that this happens in ANY circuit.

I use it in child circuits all the time without a problem. On a possibly
related note, I'm wondering why are you using ../ notation to get back
to the home circuit?

Subject: QuerySim custom tag and Fusebox 3
Hi everyone,
I'm using the QuerySim custom tag (find it at www.halhelms.com) to
assist in developing a Fusebox 3 site. When I use it in a template that
I am viewing directly rather than through the Fusebox ( as in
"..../index.cfm?fuseaction=circuit.fuse"), it works fine. Also, QuerySim
works fine when calling it through the Fusebox, if it is in the home
circuit.
However, when QuerySim is called in a template used by a child circuit,
something wierd happens. I have found that the value of
thistag.generatedcontent, which would hold the query contents i pass, is
wiped out. Therefore, QuerySim has nothing to make a query out of.
I know that the proper place to be using QuerySim is when you're testing
individual fuses, especially before you have the "real" query fuses
written, so you can say that i'm using QuerySim improperly anyway by
using it within the fusebox itself. (in my defense, i have an acceptable
reason to be doing this in this case and its only temporary, but i wont
try to explain).
Anyway, I thought it was strange that the value thistag.generatedcontent
of a custom tag would be wiped out in that way. I have thoroughly tested
this and found that, indeed, it only happens when calling it within the
Fusebox, and only in a child circuit. I am afraid that this reveals some
sort of subtle problem with Fusebox itself! But I am probably (and
hopefully) wrong...
