That's a good idea except that I use custom1 and custom 2 to construct the
url to go to.  Custom1 is the url (minus the key) and custom2 is the key
that points to the specific result.  it's unfortunate that I have to use
both customs, but for some of the collections the "key" is not the actual
key, it's another key which is repeated.  (like searching for contributors
to a product..one product could have multiple contributors..)
wish there were a custom3. or I wish that I could store my url in the URL
field but that doesn't work.

The way I've done it is to show a graphic next to the link which defines
which collection it is from.... but first you need to define your custom1 or
custom2 during the cfindex process.

Example...
<cfindex action="Refresh"
                 collection="daily"
                 key="id"
                 type="CUSTOM"
                 title="title"
                 query="daily"
                 body="body"
                 custom1="DD">


<cfsearch collection="daily, etc..., etc..." name="results"  type="SIMPLE"
criteria="#form.searchVARIABLE#" language="English">

<cfoutput query="results">

<cfif custom1 is "DD">
   ...(show percentage, image, summary)
<cfelseif custom1 is "COMP">
   ...(show percentage, image, summary)
<cfelse>
   ....(show percentage, image, summary)
</cfif>

</cfoutput>

Hope this helps,
