It's interesting, and a little confusing, when all I have to do to change my webroot for a site, is to specify the location in IIS.
The thing that brings confusion is that last night, when I installed CF Report Builder, it asked me the location that *CF* views as my webroot. If CF doesn't see a webroot and only takes its cues from IIS, why would it ask me that question? I'm sure I'm just missing something in all of this, but I can't quite see it...
