Yes, you can do this. I have a script that came with Mary Jo Sminkey's CFWebstore called "sesConverter" that does exactly what you describe. It was last updated in 2002 but it works fine. I would post it but I'm not sure what the licensing situation is, it doesn't say in the code anywhere. Suffice to say it can be done. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ryan Stille" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 2:49 PM Subject: Re: CF and URL vars as folders? > Scott Weikert wrote: >> >> I found this old thread that Ray Camden posted to: >> >> http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/thread.cfm/threadid:4667#20603 >> >> but he didn't get into any specifics. >> >> Any URLs pointing me in the right direction would be great!
