Doug...
Somewhere, you are checking for the session and if it doesnt exist, you
cflocate to the login page. THAT is the place where you need to grab the
CURRENT page and query strings (or just the entire url for that matter).
Because THAT is the point that you want to return them to.
So...
<cfif NOT isdefined('session.isloggedin')>
<cfset theurl =
urlencodedformat("http://#cgi.server_name#/#cgi.script_name#?#cgi.query_stri
ng#") />
<cflocation="loginpage.cfm?returnto=#theurl#" addtoken="no" />
</cfif>
So now say you are at
'http://mysite.com/securepage.cfm?someurlvar=42' but not logged in and
should be.
You will be redirected to soemthing like...
Loginpage.cfm?returnto=http%3A%2F%2Fmysite%2Ecom%2Fsecurepage%2Ecfm%3Fsomeur
lvar%3D42
Now... when the user logs in successfully you cflocate to:
#urldecode(url.returnto)#
On your login page, give a default for url.returnto.
Also, on the login page, you want to check to see if the user is logged in,
if they are, then they shouldnt be on a login page. Redirect them to your
default.

That is not working. What happens is the user clicks a link for a page in
the root directory and if they are not logged in I <cflocation> them to the
login page. If I use the cgi.http_referrer it sets the last requested page
as the login page from the <cflocation>
