Subject: MX and URL trick for search engines


>We use the trick of replacing the ampersands and question marks in a URL
>with slashes in order to have our website indexed by search engines.
>Instead of having the URL appear as:
>
>MySite.cfm?VarName=Value
>
>it appears as
>
>MyPage.cfm/VarName/Value
>
>This works extremely well in CF5 on IIS5 (patched to the hilt). The
>functionality happened, as I recall, out of the box. We saw the method
>recommended in fusebox and adopted it.
>
>We are now configuring CFMX on a development server, and all of a sudden
>it is broken. We never ran CF5 on this server as a control, so it could
>be IIS that is misconfigured or has a patch that stops this behavior,
>although we just built out another CF5 server on a fully patched IIS
>install and had no problems.
>
>There is a third party ISAPI filter that will do this in IIS, but I'm
>wondering what has happened to break this. Any ideas?

>Thanks,
