There is nothing silly about this at all.  The hardest question you have to
answer is one of navigation.  If someone is in circuit 2, is there a
navigation link to get to circuit 1 (never mind what it should do first).
The same question would be true of circuit 1.  So my response might be that
your home application, while functionally not really doing anything...could
at least contain the navigation mechanisms necessary to move around...and
then could remain constant.  Using this common technique, your links from
the main navigation could simply use fuseactions and a root (home)
application index.cfm file to call url_ redirectors to move from circuit to
circuit.

But that is only one way.  In one important way this helps you out:  Now
your circuit to circuit "top-level" navigation works and is available at all
times with any rendered circuit.

But this is only one way.

Subject: silly question


This may seem like a silly question but something is eluding me...

        I have:

        HOME APP
                CIRCUIT 1

                CIRCUIT 2

My HOME APP does nothing by itself, it just has a bunch of cfmodule calls in
the index.cfm file to call each circuit app as necessary.  When the user
goes to the HOME APP, the default fuseaction calls CIRCUIT 1.  Within
CIRCUIT 1, there is an option which requires the user to be transferred to
CIRCUIT 2.  with me so far? <g>

this is the bit that gets me - HOW should I move the user once they've
clicked the link for this option in CIRCUIT 1?
Should it call the CIRCUIT 1 index.cfm with a fuseaction that leads to
CIRCUIT 2?  Should it call cflocation to the HOME APP with a fuseaction that
cfmodules CIRCUIT 2?  or should it directly cfmodule CIRCUIT 2?  or should
it cfmodule the HOME APP which then CFMODULES CIRCUIT 2?

I know this sounds confused but I'm hoping someone knows what I'm on about
and can let me know what best practise here is, because I'm still new to
fusebox.
