Ron,
CFID/CFTOKEN variables get created when/if you enable session or client variables in
your application (aka session management). You would do this by using the
CAPPLICATION tag, usually in application.cfm. These vars uniquely identify the
user/session and need to be passed around with every request (via either cookie, URL,
or form values). The ADDTOKEN attribute of CFLOCATION will append the CFID/CFTOKEN
variables to the new location URL if, and _only if_, you have already enabled
client/session variables for your application. If you don't use session management,
this attribute will have no effect, but is best set to "no" or left out entirely.
Hope that helps,
-Max
