Request vs application scope

[Steve Vosloo]

I am using the following line of code in my application.cfm

<cfset request.HomeDir = "http://127.0.0.1/work/ACME/may2001/website";>

Then elsewhere in the site I refer all links and images to:

<cfoutput>#request.HomeDir#</cfoutput>

Is this OK to do? I'm trying to avoid using the application scope. Are there
any known of issues with this method?

Thanks.
Steve
