reference to cfexperts comment to invoke custome tag
attributes is not required. no need to give comma between the atrributes variables.
to pass variables to the tag use:
<cf_tagname test = 1 test2 = 2>
is enough to call any cfm files with name tagname.cfm.
to retrive the value what he was explianed is correct

<cf_embedfields>in between you <form> tags
then in cutom tag you can get them simply by calling their name like #username# or whatever the field name happens to be you need the value from.
