Attribute Information
Attribute information is extracted from CFParam'ed attribute variables. Comment variables should be included in a comment IMMEDIATELY after the CFParam tag (no spaces or line breaks). To include an attribute that can't be CFParam'ed (e.g. attributes that are used in isDefined checks) you can comment out the CFParam tag defining the attribute, and include another comment immediately after it for comment variables.
CFParam attributes:
Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
name | The attribute variable will be extracted as the tag attribute name |
type | This will be extracted as the tag attribute type |
default | This will be extracted as well. If it isn't defined, the tag attribute is flaged as required. |
