With IIS 7, you can download the URL rewrite module for free from Microsoft.

The best approach for this would be to use a URL rewriting tool such as
ISAPI_REWRITE. That's an IIS thing. Doing it with pure ColdFusion, the best
thing you could hope for is

Hi all,
I'm a Flex developer with just enough CF skills to be dangerous :-) and need
some guidance here.
My website allows users to access specific pages via a unique id/parameter
such as this:
http://www.scribblar.com/rooms/index.cfm?r=k3ns5

What's involved in terms of CF code to shorten this to
http://www.scribblar.com/rooms/k3ns5
or even better still
http://www.scribblar.com/k3ns5

I'm unsure as to how to achieve this. In case it makes a difference I am
using a Windows box with IIS7.

Cheers 

Stefan
