Lets see:
You have a script in your application.cfm.
If a variable evaluates false, it opens a window.
The script opened in the window will ALSO access the application.cfm first,
and the value will STILL be false because the proper authentication hasn't
been passed - so it'll keep opening it.
One solution: put the document that's supposed to appear in a subdirectory
with its own application.cfm. This application.cfm can't be blank, but it
should be harmless; put something like:
<cfSetting enableCFOutputOnly="yes">
<cfSetting enableCFOutputOnly="no">
in there. When the popup window loads the document from this subdirectory,
it'll read the application.cfm in that directory and stop there, instead of
parsing the one in the root and going into an endless loop.
HTH! HAND!
