You could do this many ways: For multiple languages, I often use session vars (that way the URLS don't get bogged up, but you do use a few more resources having all those sessions flying around I guess)
But multiple sites, i.e different domain names on one hosted account I run each site out of it's own folder, then use ISAPI to rewrite the URLS: so www.domain.com/site1/ -> www.site1.com This way, you could have a siteroot application.cfc, and then application.cfc's which extend the site root cfc. I've got about 25 sites running out of one hosting account using that technique: only catch is you can't use absolute siteroot URLs.
