I have pretty much consistently used mappings in my applications to include things from the document root, regardless of where the file being accessed is located. I often do it for UDFs and template files.
Ie, <cfinclude template="/rickroot/udf.cfm" or <cfinclude template="/rickroot/above.cfm"> <!--- body content ---> <cfinclude template="/rickroot/above.cfm"> What are my options if I choose NOT to use mappings? For example, my blog application dynamically creates files in subdirectories, and currently includes the root index.cfm using a <cfinclude> tag with the mapping. The index.cfm will not always be in the document root, but it will always be 3 directories ABOVE the specific file in question. The index.cfm itself also uses <cfinclude> to include the template files, as exampled above. Thanks!
