them within the application. At least that is how I use them.
My hosting provider (CFMX updater 3) is flaky at the best of times but this
seems to work for my applications.
If you are in a clustered environment then YES application scope is the one
to use - and lock (within the CFIF ISDEFINED) code.
Remember that APPLICATION variables are scoped according to the immediate
"Application.cfm" file it finds. All the way up to the root directory. If
your "guestbook" application name is shared by another website on the same
host, also called "guestbook" then you could be in trouble. This is where
the application scope is not the scope to use. With the REQUEST scope it is
limited to your own application environment - as long as you at least have
an Application.cfm in your site root to define your request vars.
And NEVER use the SERVER scope in a shared environment without due caution.
