I am one of those coders who is not yet knowledgable on fusebox. I sat
down and did some research on it recently to educate myself. I got as far
the point where it says that all templates/links should reference back to
the same index.cfm page and stopped.
The last project I worked on had a page similiar to that. The page was
2000 lines. There were a whole lot of conditions and a whole lot of
CFLOCATIONS,
based on those conditions. It was the most ludricious thing I've ever seen.
I can't imagine how this could be considered efficient, nor good coding.
If the original coder was trying to implement fusebox, I think that he
missed the mark. Either that or the whole fusebox methodology is flawed.
