using <cfif> inside <cfsaveceonten>

I Have a <cfif><cfelse> block inside a <cfsavecontent> and then I use <cffile write to write that content. I want the <cfif><cfelse> tags to be copied not parsed. Right now it only writes whichever part of the <cfif> tag is true. I want the whole block to be saved as content and written to a new file.

Can't seem to find an answer.

 

You mean you want the literal text "<cfif>" written to the file, you'll need to do something so they're not evaluated. Like escaping the cfml tags

ie &lt;cfif &gt; instead of <cfif>

Code (markup):

 

Also, the same applies to most any CF tag. They will automatically be evaluated, unless you escape the tags so they're treated as strings instead of executed.
