Sure thing.  HTTP is "stateless" so that means you have to pass the CFID/CFTOKEN 
around from request to request somehow, otherwise the server won't know that the 
requests are coming from the same client (how could it?  IP addresses are not 
reliable).  So you either have to pass 'em around "manually" in URLs and/or forms, or 
with cookies.  This is not just a CF limitation, btw, it's just how HTTP was designed 
and works.

Glad you got it working  :-)
