Re: Hiding file name passed to CFCONTENT

[Johan Steenkamp]

A simple solution is to create a session variable with a random name and then store the required filename/path in a session variable. Pass the session var name in the url. The template that returns the file via <cfcontent> then tests for existance of the session variable and if valid uses the value of the session variable.

  Hi,
  Yet another cfontent question: How do I hide the name of the file I am passing to a CF content tag. For example, I have a listing of rows with links to several PDF files. I want to avoid putting the absolute path in the link in case someone looks at the source. Paranoid?

  Anyhow, I messed around with the Encrypt function, but cannot get it to work, and don't feel like coming up with a databse solution because of time constraints. Any info appreciated.
