I got this example to work using CFMX Enterprise Edition v6.1 on a Windows 2000 server using the following setup:

1. Place the "taglibs-random.jar" JAR file in the following directory: C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib
(assumes CFMX is installed on the C drive)

2. Place the "taglibs-random.tld" TLD file in the same directory your .cfm page that calls it. (note: you may place this file in any directory as long as you path to it correctly.)

3. Restart ColdFusion Services

4. Use the following code in your (.cfm) page:
(note that the referenced "taglibs-random.tld" is a TLD note the JAR file)

Your password is #myPassword#

OTHER IMPORTANT NOTES:

JSP custom tags is NOT supported in CFMX Professional Edition - Enterprise only and might also work on the CFMX Demo Install and CFMX Developer version.

CFIMPORT must appear in the page using a custom tag

You can't place the CFIMPORT code in the Application.cfm file.

You can't place the CFIMPORT code in a file referenced with CFINCLUDE.

The following code should work:

Your password is #myPassword#

Before you run the code, try restarting ColdFusion.
If that fails, try copying the random.tld file from the JAR file into the lib directory, and then restart ColdFusion again.

Did that, and I get the same error these folks are mentioning. Using W2k3 Ent Ed. CFMX 6.1 Std. Ed.

replace the import line with

(the only change is to change random to taglibs-random.) Make sure you didn't rename the jar file from the original taglibs-random. This works with the latest taglibs distribution on Win 2000.

I cant seem to make this cfimport example work. I've downloaded the latest random.jar and random.tld from jakarta, and dropped it into the /WEB-INF/lib/ directory, but when I run it, I get the error message:
"The TagExtraInfo class org.apache.taglibs.random.RandomNumTei for the number tag couldn't be found. "

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Here is the code I'm using:
