So, put your one template in it's own folder, with it's own Application.cfc that extends the root Application.cfc, but has additional functionality added to it's methods. Say you have an onRequestStart method in the root Application.cfc. You want the functionality of that method, plus the security stuff:
<cffunction name="onRequestStart" access="public" output="false" returnType="boolean"> <cfargument name="thePage" type="string" required="true" /> <cfset SUPER.onRequestStart(thePage = ARGUMENTS.thePage) /> <!--- The security logic stuff ---> <cfreturn true /> </cffunction> Steve "Cutter" Blades Adobe Certified Professional Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Co-Author of "Learning Ext JS" http://www.packtpub.com/learning-ext-js/book _____________________________ http://blog.cutterscrossing.com On 6/22/2009 3:46 PM, jason robinson wrote: > Hi there, > > I'm working on my first full CF website.
