The original blog post is here: Application Specific Mappings Are Horribly Broken http://blog.daemon.com.au/go/blog-post/application-specific-mappings-are-horribly-broken I've raised this as an issue with Adobe, but its not regarded as a bug. I've suggested the documentation might be changed to reflect the reality behind application specific mappings limitations -- perhaps that will happen some day. Funnily enough BlueDragon apparently works as advertised, so it may not be an impossible issue to address. Just need more people complaining about it I suspect. -- geoff http://www.daemon.com.au/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:304697 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
