Riddle me this Mr Watts,
My server seems to have gone from parsing URLs from the left to parsing from
the right. (NT4 SP5 IIS4 CF 4.0.1) While neither SP6 nor 6a has been
applied, I have applied post-SP5 hot fixes. And what's an MS SP but the
same ole hot fixes in a new package?
So do we know which particular facet of SP6 changes the parsing order? Are
there any other methods of (intentionally or unintentionally) affecting the
parse order?
T again IA
Sean

If the URL is parsed from left to right by the server, it will stop at the
first valid file name it finds, and treat everything after that file name as
URL parameter data. For example, with this URL:
http://www.myserver.com/myfile.cfm/myfile.csv
the server will go to myfile.cfm, passing myfile.csv as URL data to it. This
trick allows you to execute one file, myfile.cfm, while making the browser
think it's asking for myfile.csv.
