How to use Request scope?!

2004-11-03 Thread Ian Sheridan
can you set a request scope variable in an include? ex. -index.cfm --include1.cfm -- set request.test --include2.cfm -- read request.test can this be done? -- -- Ian Sheridan http://www.savagevines.com --

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. I may be off a bit with regard to CFCs, but that's how I understand it. --Ben Ian Sheridan wrote: well that's the thing I am setting

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

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

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. Adam On Wed, 03 Nov 2004 13:25:35 -0500, Ben Doom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Except that I do exactly what you

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 --
