RE: Main differences between CFMODULE and a custom tag

2000-10-13 Thread Jones, Matt

you can call custom tags with cfmodule, you pass the attributes the same way
as you would with cf_, and you can do end tags with cfmodule
we have found cfmodule to be extremely useful for identifying exactly which
tag we are intending to call.  By specifying the template, rather than name,
you don't get caught in any type of custom tag hierarchy problems. It also
doesn't take much to change
cf_customtagname to cfmodule template="[relative
path]/customtagname.cfm"

Why would you use a cfmodule over a custom tag, or a tag over
a module? Both allow you to store shared code in a separate
file, and then call that code and send it arguments. Maybe
they are almost the same thing? Thanks for any help.

2000-10-13 Thread Evan Lavidor

According to Allaire, CFMODULE is also faster than calling CF_tagname,
because it (the CF server) doesn't have to search through the directory tree
of custom tags for your file.  Instead, you're telling it where the file is
located.
