I can't emphasise enough how utterly wrong it is to avoid using the
cfid and cftoken cookies.
That being said, if you require javascript you should be able to use
something like this after the closing body tag and get away with it.
There are ways to make this valid xhtml, involving the window.onload
event, but I won't get into that:
<script language="JavaScript">
function addToken(str) {
if (str.toLowerCase().indexOf("?")<0) { str += "?"; }
str += "#session.urltoken#";
}
for (x = 0; x < document.links.length; x = x + 1) {
link = document.links[x];
link.href = addToken(link.href);
}
for (x = 0; x < document.forms.length; x = x + 1) {
form = document.forms[x];
form.action = addToken(form.action);
}
</script>
This probably doesn't make sense (requiring javascript) if you're
avoiding the cfid and cftoken cookies, but this is the only way to
accomplish this that ultimately won't make you want to tear all your
leg, arm, chest, back, head and eyebrow hair out.
