Thanks for your reply Kevin, But my next question would be, what method do you use for tagging the page for its content? Say for an 'About Us' page, what method do I tag it so that I know to load the text for 'About Us' ? Something like this? (about.cfm) <cfset variables.textContent = "about"> <cfquery name="qGetContent" datasource="#application.dsn#"> SELECT * FROM tblContent WHERE textContent = 'variables.textContent' AND textLanguage = 'session.language' </cfquery>
