I think this is how Fusebox gets around the problem of having all requests go to the
same page (index.cfm) (dont quote me on that... I dont know much about Fusebox...)
But the problem with this is you are causing another round-trip from the client to
server and back again.
Does anyone have a method that DOESN'T cause this delay?
