Just so everybody knows, the output of the code is as follows:<br />---------------------<br /><h3>cfsilent</h3><br /><br /><br /><br /><p>Even information within cfoutput tags does not display within a <br />cfsilent block.<br><br /><br /> b-a = -1<br /><br /></p><br />---------------------<br />None of the line breaks are created from the <cfset> tags, because of this, i suggest always using this code to reduce extra linebreaks that are uneeded.<br /><br />The documentation should also provide a link to the function that eliminates all line breaks, except those within a CFOUTPUT tag. that way you can <cfsilent> all of your code, and the only code that is output is the code within the output tag. Just like PHP works with the <?PHP ... ?>, only text in the echo Echo 'my variable: $var'; gets output.

But it doesn't work with CFTRY if you wrap it around the CFTRY tag. I haven't tried it the other way yet or with cfscript's try control statement. mindtrap 0 0 2005-02-01T09:00:43
