Not that your question has anything to do with CFC development, but......

The administrator of your CF server probably just switched to using UUIDs
for the CFTOKENs:

Old sessions (IE) are probably holding onto the old token, and new sessions
are getting UUIDs (Firebird).  I'll bet if you clear out all the cookies in
IE and return to that site, you'll get the same long UUID.

Subject: [CFCDev] Weird CFTOKEN stuff with Mozilla browsers


Hi,
This is the weirdest thing I have seen yet.
When I use IE and log into GWeb, the URL looks something like:
http://www.website.com/default.cfm?CFID=4855759&CFTOKEN=15878265

Now, if I use Mozilla or Firefox, the URL looks like
http://www.website.com/default.cfm?CFID=33688&CFTOKEN=8b878534884e0bb8-AFFFD
FA2-09DD-BC72-3601409104B5EE75

Notice the ridiculously long CFTOKEN value, which is much longer then it
should be. This breaks my app which assumes that CFID column in the db table
is no longer than 20 characters, since it is a concatenation of
"CFID:CFTOKEN" I guess I cold truncate CFTOKEN, but I would first much
rather figure out why CFTOKEN gets this way. Can anybody point me in the
right direction. Has anyone ran into this with their mozilla or firefox?

Best Regards
R. Anthony
