Oh jeez .. let me see if I can explain this ... We are setting up a site where people can come sign up and get their own web site. The trick is, we don't want to have to fool with making changes in the registry, or IIS. So, we came up with this "brilliant" idea of storing a site name in the customer master database that is the name of the subdirectory that their site would normaly sit in if we created a folder for them and mapped it in IIS (www.oursite.com/theirsitename). The idea is that when someone comes looking for www.oursite.com/theirsitename, it won't really exist and they will be shuffled off to the default error page. We have replaced the error page with a cf file that parses out "theirsitename" and then performs a lookup in the database for information associate with "theirsitename", sets some client variables, and then shoots them off to the main application that everyone REALLY uses. The client variables contain folder paths and database file info that determines what data is displayed to what users. OK .. I hope that made sense. Anyway .. when the visitor is redirected to the 'default error' page, the URL that they were trying to get to gets lost. I don't know enough about IIS or HTTP protocols to know if it's even possible to keep track of this information. Does anyone know how I could accomplish this? Thanks!
