If your doing it in IIS throught he error documents then it wont work. I'm pretty sure all it does is includes the file file but it doesn't processess anything. In any case if you are doing any sort of redirect you will loose your form variables because of the nature of doing a redirect.
The only way I have worked out to do this is instead of doing a redirect you need to do a getPageContext().forward([url]); but for that to work I have implemented a missing template handeling process to deal with 404s and grab the correct content. Thing is though you still loose your form structure, so I set a request.FORM variable like request.FORM = duplicate(FORM) because the request scope is still available to the end page. From here I just loop over that request.FORM structure and repopulate my form scope and continue. That help?

The actual url link is contained in CGI.redirect_url. IIS, i use the CGI.query_string value and send it to the same function as above. If you need to code for anything please let me know mate..

I was using that exact method (and still am on a CF6 server) but when I installed the system on a CF7 server it all stopped working - and I was never able to find a solution. So if you find one please let me know. One of the problems is that when you cfdump the CGI scope you don't necessarily see everything in there so what used to be found in cgi.request_uri or cgi.path_info may now be somewhere else. > > >> Cheers, > > >> Brett > >> B) > > >> Rony wrote: > >>> I have updated by the websever (apache when testing and IIS for > >>> production) to point to the index.cfm file when a 404 occurs. > >>> Any ideas? > >>> On Jul 12, 10:45 pm, "Steve Onnis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >>>> Right > >>>> So how is the $)$ being included or called?
