The age old method is to create a header.cfm, footer.cfm, menu.cfm, index.cfm
index.cfm contains the main layout, and cfinclude all the other files. You then have 2 options. create individual pages that work the same way as index.cfm, or create content pages that get included into the index.cfm. so u might have a url of index.cfm/aboutus in your index,cfm you look for the value after the index.cfm/ and then use this to determine which file to include, in this case aboutus.cfm most of the frame works work roughly in this type of way, so you may want to just consider using one of those. If this is a really simple site then Framework 1 may be the best solution for you, it is small and simple to use. http://fw1.riaforge.org/ -- Russ Michaels www.cfmldeveloper.com - Supporting the CF community since 1999 FREE ColdFusion/Railo hosting for developers. blog: www.michaels.me.uk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:338975 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
