Using a modified Fusebox style, and without using any of the Fusebox tags,
it's pretty easy to code your own app_global.cfm and have URLs like
http://www.zog.org/beat/index.cfm/lovemedo.htm where "beat" is the folder
name AND the fuseaction name, index.cfm CFINCLUDES the templates you need
for the fuseaction "beat", and "lovemedo" is a parameter value needed by
the fuseaction "beat" (and the ".htm" is simply stripped off before you
recover the value "lovemedo").
I've gone even further in a developing app and use URLs like:
http://www.MyApp.com/HL/LL/OA/OO/index.cfm/IN.845/CD.50022/CN.37115146/HD.475000/AL.B/LL.E/OR.5260.HTM
where I parse the "/" delimited list to obtain the value of several passed
parameters (the value of OR is 5260, for example). I use the folder
sequence "/HL/LL/OA/OO/" to define a "Breadcrumb Trail" that allows users
to "one-click" to ANY earlier page in the user's current path.
