Well I think it is a great idea ... akin to using surrogate keys for object identifers. Are you using an authoring tool that generates those identifers or do you generate them by hand? It is just a hexidecimal representation of a large random number?
BTW: Some the members of this list use IntelliJ/Idea but I cannot seem to download it as my link cuts off every 2 hours and I don't appear to be able to get GetRight to follow the Redirects so does anybody on this list know how I can convince GetRight to follow the redirect so I can resume the download of this after I've disconnected? It's a bit annoying to say that least that a tool as old as GetRight doesn't process the redirect properly and what's the download the initial .jsp file. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rickard Öberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 8:17 PM Subject: Re: [OS-webwork] Velocity or JSP? > Robert Nicholson wrote: > > What information is encoded in those URLS and why are they so cryptic?
