Yes, you can use a CFM file for this, we do this for 403s and redirection.

Hatton Humphrey To: CF-Talk Sent: Wed Jun 06 17:47:23 2007 Subject: Custom 404 For Single IIS Site I'm not sure if this is something that I can do but I'm hoping it's possible: I have a single site defined in IIS. According to the properties tag in IIS I can define custom error messages for each site. Can this page be a .cfm page? Here's why I ask, I've been approached by someone that wants to create a "custom directory" for a mailing list and deliver content to them based on a record in the database. Let's say that John Smith, Jane Doe and Jim Dandy are all three names in the database. They each receive a postcard with a URL that includes their individual names. For example: http://...../John_Smith/ http://...../Jane_Doe/ http://...../Jim_Dandy/ Looking at this from one perspective, I could have the administrative module phystically create the folders and copy in an index.cfm and Application.cfm into each folder to take care of delivering the content. My other idea was to use a 404 page to grab the request and redirect to the appropriate content based on the CGI variables. However, this site is running on a box along with other sites in CF and I don't want their 404's to be affected. The question is whether plan B is viable or if there is an alternate plan to B that would negate me having to take up unneeded disk space? Thanks!
