Just for clarification for anyone else who reads this thread... The way CF is processed is through a call to IIS. When you request a file from IIS, it checks a library of file types, CFM, CFC and others are registered as needing to be processed by the CF server, so IIS hands over the file to CF, it processes the tags and code calls, compiles any includes and hands back a static html file to IIS, which in turn serves it back to you.
Calls made in a browser to a file location (c:\inetpub\wwwroot\etc) are not routed through IIS, you have to call IIS via localhost, some other configured host header or an IP address such as 127.0.0.1 =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
