RE: Custom Tag question
Could the problem be that this custom tag is being imported with CFIMPORT on the page, and then it's being called? When you CFIMPORT would it then define the UDF and then try again when you call the particular custom tag?

RE: Custom Tag question
Typically I have my udf library included - I have a check to first see if
that 'definition' already exists - that way I'm guarenteed to not include
multiple 'udf libraries' w/in any document like this
cfif not(isdefined('request.udf_SomeFn'))
cfscript
Function udf_SomeFN()
{
}
udfs...
/cfscript
Setting of all udf's to request vars
cfset request.udf_SomeFn = variables.udf_SomeFn
/cfif
Works for me ;)

Subject: Custom Tag question
Hi,
I have a custom tag. It needs to have access to a UDF that I've created.
The UDF is stored in a file called application_udfs.cfm which is CFINCLUDED
in the application.cfm file of my application. Here's my problem:
1. If I run the page as is, my custom tag fails saying that the 'Variable
ForceLinkTargetBlank Is Undefined'.
2. If I do a CFINCLUDE in my custom tag to include that
application_udfs.cfm file (so it can see the UDF), I get this error:
Routines cannot be declared more than once.
The routine ForceLinkTargetBlank has been declared twice in different
templates.
I'm stumped. I know this is something simple, but I guess it being a Friday
afternoon it's escaping me. Any ideas on how I can debug this thing and
figure out what's going on?

RE: Custom Tag Question
Evaluate is right - but when the evaluation is run, it's run in the context of the custom tag, not the calling template. The tag has no idea what get_data is unless you pass it.

RE: Custom Tag Question
That is because you did not pass the query to the custom tag, but the name of the query. You can fix this two ways. 1) In your custom tag, do cfoutput query=caller.#attributes.queryname#, however, in general, it's not good practice to refer to variables outside the custom tag. 2) Pass the actual query cf_mytag query=#get_users# Then your cfquery would be cfoutput query=attributes.query (Notice, no # marks.) === Raymond Camden, ColdFusion Jedi Master for Mindseye, Inc Member of Team Macromedia Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blog : www.camdenfamily.com/morpheus/blog Yahoo IM : morpheus My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. - Yoda -Original Message- From: John Stanley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2003 8:29 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Custom Tag Question I am creating a custom tag that will display the results of a query.

Re: Custom Tag Question
I am trying to write a super simple custom tag but im running into problems getting CFQuery information into the custom tag. Is it possible to pass Query data into a custom tag? Yes. The trick is evaluating it before passing it, you can't pass it by reference. It becomes an attribute of the tag. cf_theS query=#getProductList# From within the tag, you can reference the query as #ATTRIBUTES.query#. I recommend copying it to local scope for ease of typing.

It becomes an attribute of the tag. cf_theS query=#getProductList# From within the tag, you can reference the query as #ATTRIBUTES.query#. I recommend copying it to local scope for ease of typing. I think it's worth pointing out that, when you say: query=#getProductList# you are passing the query by reference. Queries and structures are passed by reference, while arrays and simple types are passed by value. When something is passed by reference, there's only one object, but multiple names that point to the object. It's also worth noting that you could reference the query from within the custom tag without passing it at all, so if you did this: query=getProductList you could reference it within the custom tag like this: Caller.getProductList However, I prefer the first approach myself.

Right now you have to correct me if I am wrong specify the variables as caller.varname to pass back to the calling template from the customtag. and the assigned variables would be available throughout the entire document (or even possibly overwrite existing variables. yikes.)

Larry [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/12 8:07p For instance if I use a custom tag like this: cfset var = "text" cf_customTag Long #var# string with variables embedded... /cf_CustomTag How do I capture what is nested within the tags into a variable in custom tag template? Will it be possible to resolve the string so that a variable can be assigned "Long text string with variables embedded..." within the template? Does anyone have any ideas?

RE: Custom tag question
Thanks for your reply, Larry. ThisTag.GeneratedContent works but not very well in the situation below. Since it fails to encounter any tags it literally passes everything between the opening and closing tags without processing the embedded variable. Hence the pound signs are literally sent to the custom tag template. One way I found to get around this is to wrap cfoutput/cfoutput tags immediately around the text string like this: cf_customTag cfoutput Long #var# string with variables embedded... /cfoutput /cf_CustomTag But this defeats the purpose. How can we solve this problem without using additional nested tags inside the custom tags? -Original Message- From: Larry Meadors [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, May 13, 2000 12:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Custom tag question Are you looking for thistag.generatedcontent?
