Re: Extract an URL Variable name?
I did something like this relatively recently, with the added requirement that both the variable name and the value be encrypted (fun, eh). On top of that, there was a handler page that I had to ensure was continuing to attach all of my url vars to the url for cflocation. I'll give you my code snippets here and hopefully you can mine something useful out of them: Handler page looping through variables to attach url scope to cflocation url: cfset myhomepage = this is my link cfset urlscope = / cfloop collection=#url# item=key cfif decrypt(key,application.EncryptSeed,CFMX_COMPAT, 'Hex') EQ linkfrom!--- var lets me know it's coming from an email; reroute --- cfset myhomepage = different page here /cfif /cfloop !--- append any url variables --- cfloop collection=#url# item=key cfset urlscope = urlscope #key#=#url[key]# / /cfloop cfif len(urlscope) !--- then swap out the first for a ? and append to our link --- cfset urlscope = REReplace(urlscope, , ?) / cfset myhomepage = myhomepage urlscope / /cfif cflocation addtoken=no url=#myhomepage# Then on a given page where I needed to know if an ID had been passed in cfloop collection=#url# item=key cfif decrypt(key,application.EncryptSeed,CFMX_COMPAT, 'Hex') EQ project_id cfset request.project_id = decrypt(url[key],application.EncryptSeed,CFMX_COMPAT, 'Hex') / /cfif /cfloop If I'm passing an URL Variable - with the variable name itself being dynamic, what's the best was to extract the variable name (not the value) on the receiving page? As in: for: index.cfm?somevar=somevalue I need to return somevar on the receiving page as a value. or for: index.cfm?bigdog=bruto I need to return bigdog on the receiving page as a value. The receiving page won't know what the variable is in advance...
