I just thought by saying I want to output some text I could explain it better.
I have a custom tag that goes into the NT security and outputs the groups associated with the user which I'm setting in my application.cfm as... <cfset auth = "#CGI.AUTH_USER#"> I use this variable on everypage to display the username logged in. The thing is when the index.cfm file is loaded again and again I *don't* want the custom tag to execute. Eventually I want to grab all the information from the custom tag and dump it to a database but only ONCE per session. I hope this is clearer...:-) :-) At 07:27 AM 3/20/2002 -0500, you wrote: >Expire the session varibale when the user logs out..if you have them log >out. >Im not clear on what you are trying to do here.. what is it that you are >outputting on the first page visit? > > >-----Original Message----- >From: phumes1 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 7:35 AM >To: CF-Talk >Subject: RE: Running code just one time > > >OK...but won't this session variable always be "1" when the application.cfm >is loaded again? >Do I have to set the variable to "2" once I output what I want for the >first time. > >I'm missing something here... > >At 07:02 AM 3/20/2002 -0500, you wrote: > >When they get logged in, set a flag in application.cfm, such as a > >session session.beenHereBefore = 1, then in your index page check the > >value of the variable and output accordingly. > > > >HTH, > >Mike > > > >-----Original Message----- > >From: phumes1 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > >Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 7:07 AM > >To: CF-Talk > >Subject: Re: Running code just one time > > > > > >Hi, > > > >This is regarding a post from yesterday.
