Then what you need to do is set this value - <cfset auth = "#CGI.AUTH_USER#"> to a session variable.
Then on your index.cfm, just check for that session var and if it has anything in it.. if it does do not run the tag, if there is not any value then run the tag and populate the session var.. Make sense?

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... 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.
