Err... I am using Fusebox. The only plugin I can find means that you end up with a url along the lines of:
http://www.myserver.com/index.cfm/action/main.home/variable1/value1 I'm not really keen on the whole idea of having the index.cfm stuck in the middle of the URL like that - I think it looks kludgy. On the other hand, the plugin I found was a few years old. If you can point me at a more recent one that fixes this problem, then I'd be thrilled! :) And yeah, I do get what you're saying about real rewriting needing to happen at the webserver level. That's how I've worked with it in the past but was just playing around with the idea to see fi I could find an alternative. Thanks for your input! :) Cheers, Seona. 2009/12/19 Daniel Punton <[email protected]> > I honesty doubt you can find one solution for both IIS and apache.
