110 Chapter 2: ColdFusion Tags
The
cfdocument
tag does not support the Internet Explorer-specific HTML generated by
Microsoft Word.
The PDF or FlashPaper document returned by the
cfdocument
tag overwrites any previous
HTML in the input stream and ignores any HTML after the
</cfdocument>
tag.
You cannot embed a
cfreport
tag in a
cfdocument
tag.
When you use the
cfdocument
tag, ColdFusion MX creates a new scope named cfdocument.
This scope contains the following variables:
•
currentpagenumber
•
totalpagecount
Note: The cfdocument scope variables are reserved for page number rendering. Do not use them in
ColdFusion expressions. For example, the following code does not work:
<cfif cfdocument.currentpagenumber gt 1>
<cfoutput>#cfdocument.currentpagenumber-1#</cfoutput>
</cfif>
Example
<cfdocument format="flashpaper">
<p>This is a document rendered by the cfdocument tag.</p>
