Example
<!--- This view-only example shows the use of IsStruct. --->
<p>This file is similar to addemployee.cfm, which is called by StructNew,
StructClear, and StructDelete. It is an example of a custom tag used to
add employees. Employee information is passed through the employee
structure (the EMPINFO attribute). In UNIX, you must also add the Emp_ID.
<!--- 
<cfswitch expression = "#ThisTag.ExecutionMode#">
  <cfcase value = "start">
   <cfif IsStruct(attributes.EMPINFO)>
   <cfoutput>Error. Invalid data.</cfoutput>
   <cfexit method = "ExitTag">
   <cfelse>
   <cfquery name = "AddEmployee" datasource = "cfsnippets">
   INSERT INTO Employees
   (FirstName, LastName, Email, Phone, Department)
   VALUES 
   <cfoutput>
   (
   `#StructFind(attributes.EMPINFO, "firstname")#' ,
   `#StructFind(attributes.EMPINFO, "lastname")#' ,
   `#StructFind(attributes.EMPINFO, "email")#' ,
