I swear this guy is a troll, nobody is that dense.
but incase he is:
CFMappings are used ONLY FOR things such as CFINCLUDE. They are never used for
<img src=/some/place/imagename.png> To get a mapping for image or other
HTML urls you have to use the web server (IIS OR Apache) Alias configuration
settings. These are two totally different types of mappings and they have NO
relation to each other.
Can only hope this sinks in.
