I think I can answer that one.

I wrote a CMS system using Fusebox, so all my URLs would look like:
index.cfm?fuseaction=construstor.page&pageID=27

Each page obviously can live in a section as deep as it needs to but the URL
will always be as above with the different PageID. I've then got a script
that generates 'stub files' and directories which represent a true site
structure - so a page called 'The Team' in a section called 'About Us' would
generate a folder called aboutUS and a page TheTeam.cfm. TheTeam.cfm would
then CFMODULE the Fusebox app passing in the correct pageID.

Fusebox is obviously irrelevant here, you can use this method whatever
method you use to build your pages, it's just important to be able to
CFMODULE the page builder passing in the pageID,

Dave,

What do you mean by "stub files for URLs"?
