Hi...... Could you give an example of code from the application.cfm file? To do multi-language application with info coming from a database i think i did something crazy....
On first session request i pulled everything from the database into a session structure, I then copied this to the request scope, and referenced everything like that. I have lots of text! On each successive request it doesnt do a database query if the session exists, but copies to request scope every time. This works great for me, but i am paranoid that under load everything will slow down as i have a lot of text. What do you think of this approach? And is it better to use the file approach and just include this every time in your application.cfm file? thanks chad > The language file is simply a list of variables.
