Any chance you're using Apache? This would be a perfect exercise for mod_rewrite. If not, maybe one of the IIS implementations. Any of those should be able to handle it. This is almost certainly my own bias, but I'll put it out there anyway. XML is a "standard" web extension. Handling it in a such a specialized manner doesn't seem like the best way of dealing with this situation. I throw that out knowing that if the webserver is specialized enough then it probably doesn't matter, but I wonder what happens if a few months from now you choose to start serving (non-CFML-based) syndication feeds from the same server. I guess it violates my sense of extensibility. :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:256895 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
