An application in ColdFusion is determined by the application name you give it in <cfapplication> (or in Application.cfc via this.name). On a shared host, all "applications" that have the same name are really part of the same application. If you don't specify a name, then your "application" is part of the unnamed application, along with any other unnamed applications on the same server. What that means is that on a shared server, you need to pick a suitably unique application name to avoid clashing with other users' applications on that server. This is a good argument for multiple instances in hosted environments since that gives you complete isolation of applications. -- Sean A Corfield -- http://www.corfield.org/ Team Fusebox -- http://www.fusebox.org/ Breeze Me! -- http://www.corfield.org/breezeme Got Gmail? -- I have 48, yes 48, invites to give away!
