This is the code that was giving me trouble:
<!--- form to pick layout --->
<b>Show:</b>
Layout 1<input type="radio" name="layout" value="1"
onClick='window.location.href="index.cfm?fuseaction=changelayout&layout=1"'
<cfif session.layout is "1">checked</cfif>>
Layout 2<input type="radio" name="layout" value="2"
onClick='window.location.href="index.cfm?fuseaction=changelayout&layout=2"'
<cfif session.layout is "2">checked</cfif>>
<!--- action to change layout --->
<cfswitch expression="#attributes.fuseaction#">
<cfcase value="changelayout">
<cfset session.layout = "#attributes.layout#">
<cflocation url="#cgi.http_referer#" addtoken="no">
</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
It worked fine in Netscrape but Internet Exploiter wouldn't go back to the
http_referer (cgi.http_referer ends up being empty).
So, I did this:
<!--- Form to pick layout --->
<b>Show:</b>
Layout 1<input type="radio" name="layout" value="1"
onClick='window.location.href="index.cfm?fuseaction=changelayout&layout=1&re
turnto=<cfoutput>#urlencodedformat(cgi.path_info)#?#urlencodedformat(cgi.que
ry_string)#</cfoutput>"' <cfif session.layout is "1">checked</cfif>>
Layout 2<input type="radio" name="layout" value="2"
onClick='window.location.href="index.cfm?fuseaction=changelayout&layout=2&re
turnto=<cfoutput>#urlencodedformat(cgi.path_info)#?#urlencodedformat(cgi.que
ry_string)#</cfoutput>"' <cfif session.layout is "2">checked</cfif>>
<!--- action to change layout --->
<cfswitch expression="#attributes.fuseaction#">
<cfcase value="changelayout">
<cfset session.layout = "#attributes.layout#">
<cflocation url="#url.returnto#" addtoken="no">
</cfcase>
</cfswitch>
