Dominic: You're my hero with that Microsoft link!!! Except that none of those downloads are available!! !! !! ! ! ! ! !!! !! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! At least now I know that it's actually IIS not handing off the POST data. Which doesn't make any sense though ( in fact the reason I stopped researching it ) because it supposedly works out of the box with ASP. Which led me to assume that IIS7 had just changed formats and not notified any of other app servers to update ( which would explain PHP and CF both struggling with it ).
If anyone can get to that link I'll be your best friend forever. Moving on. By extraneous I meant extraneous to my natural distribution logic, which does not by any means just do translation to file-based URLs ( like in your example ). Managing a config file at all to me qualifies as extraneous to my controller mechanism, so it won't be a good fit for this application. Thank you for the suggestion.
