I think we're talking apples and oranges here. As I interpret them, url files
are only used for redirection to off-site locations. I'd never use the
construct in your example, as it makes no sense. In essence, the sample makes
the fusebox file say:
Case FA1:
Display something
Case FA2:
Redirect to Case FA1
Certainly, one would never use this approach; one would simply create the case
for FA1 and be done with it.
On the other hand, I'd rather not have my index.cfm full of references to off-
site urls. If my link to National Geographic deep sea exploration breaks, it's
much easier for one of my team to go to the set of url files and find
"urlNatlGeoDeepSea.cfm" and correct the url than it is to wade into index.cfm
(which they're not allowed to do anyway), find the old url (if I happen to know
it) or the fuseaction (if I remember what it was) and correct the url. It just
makes good sense from a maintenance perspective.
