Well, actually I like to put them into the attributes or request scope but that's pretty irrelevant. That's the idea, yes. >However, when SP6a was applied on a server, it stopped working.

I actually don't use IIS so all that sp6a stuff didn't bother me much. Periods work fine on Apache and WebSite.

Google will actually index URLs with ? in them now, so maybe it's a trend. Cheers, -Max ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
