I'm trying to make a "short url" function for a site. The site sends out
various text emails to users and we have had issues in the past with urls
wrapping.
What I was planning was to create a function that can be called inline. Eg:
<cfoutput>Please click this link #shortURL("http://longurl";)# to do
something.</cfoutput>
Here's the suedo code for the shortURL function:
check attributes
create an 8 character unique code for this link
insert full url and code into the database
output the new url in the form
http://www.domain.com?shorturl.cfm?code=12345678
The plan is for the shorturl.cfm page to match the code to a the full url in
the database and cflocation to the full url.
The problem is the query within the function. Is there any way to call a
query from inside a udf?
(Running on CF5)
Cheers
Mark
