Nesting ColdFusion Custom Tag Snippet

Posted September 26, 2006 at 7:33 PM by Ben Nadel

Tags: ColdFusion

Just an FYI, I have just added my small nested tags demo to my ColdFusion snippets directory.

One other note. I built it in, but didn't demo it. The Item.cfm custom tag can tag data either in the value attribute or as generated content. Therefore, the following tags would all produce the same content:

  • <!--- Add item. --->
  • <cf_item>
  • Sarah Vivenzio
  • </cf_item>
  •  
  • <!--- Add item. --->
  • <cf_item
  • value="Sarah Vivenzio"
  • />
  •  
  • <!--- Add item. --->
  • <cf_item value="Sarah Vivenzio">

Strange Interaction Between DeserializeJson(), ArrayContains(), And Database Values In ColdFusion
@Ben, I think the problem is that we're used to loose typing in ColdFusion, like JavaScript. If a value is a number but it's needed in an expression to be a string, noooo problem. I've encountered ... read »
