Just asking how other folks would go about this, in general... Getting ready to start on a new site. To get everything to work like the client wants, almost every single site URL is going to have to go through a IIS rewrite rule so everything looks like:
www.mysite.com/contact www.mysite.com/about-my-company www.mysite.com/something/red www.mysite.com/something/blue www.mysite.com/newsletters/11/23/2008/some-important-newsletter They never want to see a file extension. For me, it gets pretty difficult trying to figure out what's running what once the rewrite rules go into place since it's a fairly large site. Would most of you develop the site without the rules first, then apply the rules to get everything like the client wishes, or just go ahead and work with the rules from day one? I've got the "stand alone" version of CF8 installed locally. I don't have IIS installed. That's one point in favour of developing without the rewrite rules and adding them afterwards. Looks like it would be a painful process to install IIS locally and then change my CF installation to run under that.
