XFA stands for eXitFuseAction
eg:
<cfswitch>
....
<cfcase value="validateLogin">
<cfset attributes.XFA.successfulLogin = "showUserMenu">
<cfset attributes.XFA.failedLogin = "login&badLogin=True">
<cfinclude template="actValidateUser.cfm">
</cfcase>
....
</cfswitch>
Your actValidateUser.cfm template doesn't need to know what the actual
fuseactions are.
ie actValidateUser.cfm might look like:
....do some user validation...
<cfif let_them_in = "yes">
<cflocation url="index.cfm?fuseaction=#attributes.XFA.successfulLogin#>
<cfelse>
<cflocation url="index.cfm?fuseaction=#attributes.XFA.failedLogin#>
</cfif>
