Well, I use a URL like:
http://www.MyWebsite.com/HL/LL/LO/index.cfm/IN.526/CD.3142036/CN.53306261/HD.1000/AL.A/OR.50897.HTM
which separates Variables name/value with a "."
The my app_globals.cfm (or application.cfm) contains the following to parse
the URL:
<!--- Strip ".htm/.html" from the URL --->
<CFIF LISTLAST(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,".") IS "htm">
<CFSET CGI_SCRIPT_NAME = LEFT(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,LEN(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME)-4)>
<CFELSE>
<CFIF LISTLAST(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,".") IS "html">
<CFSET CGI_SCRIPT_NAME = LEFT(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,LEN(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME)-5)>
</CFIF>
</CFIF>
<CFSET LISTLENGTH = LISTLEN(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,"/")>
<CFSET LIST_INDEX = LISTCONTAINSNOCASE(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,"index.cfm","/")>
<CFSET LISTSTART = LIST_INDEX + 1>
<CFLOOP INDEX="IJK" FROM="#ListStart#" TO="#ListLength#">
<CFSET FUSEACTION= LISTGETAT(CGI_SCRIPT_NAME,IJK,"/")>
<CFSWITCH EXPRESSION = #GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,1,'.')#>
<CFCASE VALUE="IN">
<CFSET VARIABLES.INIT = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="CD">
<CFPARAM NAME="URL.CFI" DEFAULT="#GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')#">
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="CN">
<CFPARAM NAME="URL.CFT" DEFAULT="#GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')#">
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="KW">
<CFSET VARIABLES.KEYWORD = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="AL">
<CFSET VARIABLES.ALPHA = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="SY">
<CFSET VARIABLES.SUBYP_ID = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="HD">
<CFSET VARIABLES.HDG_ID = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="OR">
<CFSET VARIABLES.ORG_ID = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="SC">
<CFSET VARIABLES.ORG_IDSC = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="LL">
<CFSET VARIABLES.ALPHAL = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFCASE VALUE="ST">
<CFSET VARIABLES.START = GETTOKEN(FUSEACTION,2,'.')>
</CFCASE>
<CFDEFAULTCASE>
<CFOUTPUT>ERROR!</CFOUTPUT>
<CFABORT>
</CFDEFAULTCASE>
</CFSWITCH>
</CFLOOP>
As another poster noted:
"You can strip out the items after the real URL by using either CGI.Path_Info
or CGI.Script_Name (depending on your server)
With this it gives you the complete list after the directory"
