It sounds like it wasn't always being set in the first include. Regardless of what file a request variable is set in, it is available to all subsequent code.

Re: How to use Request scope?!
Well let me be a little bit more descriptive. I have an index.cfm page that includes two files. I was then setting the REQUEST variable *in* the first include. In the second include I would then look for it. This did not work. I now set the REQUEST variable in the index.cfm file first. Then set it in the first include and read it in the second include. This works. So I gather from this experience that request is *inherited* from the parent document. Application.cfm - index.cfm -- include.cfm It only gets inherited. there is no creating it in a child include/file.

Except that I do exactly what you said didn't work all the time. I routinely create request or variable scoped vars in one include to be used in another. The includes are serial, not nested. So I don't know what your original problem was, but I'd be careful to check and make sure that the value being used in the second include is actually what's being set in the first, not in the index. --Ben Ian Sheridan wrote: Well let me be a little bit more descriptive.

Re: How to use Request scope?!
A request scope can be set anywere and is available anywhere during a request. However its bad coding practice to use it in CFCs and what not but as far as I can tell it can be done.

RE: How to use Request scope?!
Same here... I set all my request variables in one file then include it via Application.cfm. the request vars are available anywhere and everywhere throughout the entire application this way. If you have these two files... !--- Request.cfm--- cfset request.testvar = request variable !--- index.cfm --- cfinclude template=request.cfm cfoutput#request.testvar#/cfoutput Index.cfm should just display request variable This SHOULD definitely work. If it's not, then there is something wrong somewhere else. Were you getting test not defined in request scope errors?

Re: How to use Request scope?!
It shouldn't matter what version. Request variables worked the way documented in 5, I know from experience. They should work in 6.0 just fine. But that raises the question of why you're running 6.0 instead of 6.1 with updaters. Is there are reason? If not, you should definately update -- there are a number of security and performance fixes. --Ben Ian Sheridan wrote: Oh it is passing the right info but maybe it's because I am doing this on a 6.0 machine Ian On Wed, 03 Nov 2004 13:25:35 -0500, Ben Doom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Except that I do exactly what you said didn't work all the time.

RE: How to use Request scope?!
ThatÂ’s pretty strange. I've never seen or heard of it happening before. Everything seems right to me. What happens when you unscope it? Make it just actionpasser instead of request.actionpasser. This would work just the same as it SHOULD when scoped as request.
