Something I actually just discovered last week.  If you are actually using
the CFML.exe executable to process cfm pages as scheduled tasks you can
actually set your own environmental variables.   I'm sure those vars were
set for the os, color, and res because those are client values that run on
the client machine, in which case you would have to use something like JS
for that.

So, if you are like me and needed to set a whole bunch of static vars 

like "set varName = varValue"
then you can reference that var as cgi.varName
This was very useful in developing a whole bunch of batch scheduled jobs.

However, I don't believe you can use this method if using the cf .dll

HTH,

That solved it.  I get the referer and the browser.  However, the 
cpu, os, color and resolution are apparently not available as vars on 
my server.  Darn.  Thanks you guys. -- Palyne
