In addition to Miguel's answer, if you are going to do this:

logSomething(logThis);

Then the logSomething function needs an appropriate cfargument tag.

It's hard to say what is wrong from the simple example given. You can definitely call a function from within a function, no problem. Are you sure no error is being thrown?

i've simplified it even more, returns "null" within the cfdiv

this is the cfc

logSomething();

</cfscript>

</cffunction>

</cffunction>

</cfcomponent>

and this is a cfm using it:

Oh I thought you had just posted a simple example here. Didn't know that was your actual cfc. It is returning "null" to your div because you are not specifying a returntype from your functions. If you want it to return something, try this:

logSomething();

</cfscript>

</cffunction>

</cffunction>
