Paul,
I've implemented this, which uses session cookies to store
the CFID and CFTOKEN. This is in my Application.cfm file:
---
<CFAPPLICATION NAME="foo" CLIENTMANAGEMENT="Yes" SETCLIENTCOOKIES="No">
<CFIF NOT IsDefined("Cookie.CFID")>
<CFCOOKIE NAME="CFID" VALUE="#Client.CFID#">
<CFCOOKIE NAME="CFTOKEN" VALUE="#Client.CFTOKEN#">
</CFIF>
---
I think your proposed solution might also work. Have you tried
it with cookies disabled? That would be pretty cool. Give it
a try and let us know.
