Hi Les, I do all my mapping stuff in the application.cfm file. That way, when you move things over, you just change a few lines in the application.cfm file. I set imagepath, DSN, homepath, and a few others... Makes things go real smnooth when moving over.

Hi, I'm new on the list and to ColdFusion in general, so take it easy on me. I would like to have two (or more) sites on my NT box, one for staging, and one for production. For example, I'd like to have a website (stage.livingscriptures.com) that I do all my pre-production work in, and then when I'm finished, simply copy everything over to a different directory, that would be my production site (www.livingscriptures.com). This is very simple to do with say, ASP, but I have found difficulty in getting this to work with ColdFusion. When you're trying to cfinclude templates, it won't include from the proper directory, without creating mappings in the ColdFusion administrator, and then using a variable to store that mapping. My co-worker introduced my to ColdFusion, and I think it's a GREAT product, but the inability to do this has frustrated me. Maybe I'm approaching this the wrong way. I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me with this.
