Or do the same but use CGI.SCRIPT_NAME which for that example would give you


/Florida/East Coast/Miami/Hotels.cfm

So its just a case of

<CFSET lstBreadCrumb = ListDeleteAt(CGI.SCRIPT_NAME,
ListLast(CGI.SCRIPT_NAME, "/"), "/")>

Then loop over the list to your specific formatting requrements

so if we had a file with the following url:

/Florida/East Coast/Miami/Hotels.cfm

we could assume that the breadcrumbs/waymarker line would say

Home > Florida > East Coast > Miami

The page name would be Hotels

To get the path for the current page, you could use the
GetDirectoryFromPath(GetBaseTemplatePath())

To get the file for the current page, you could use the
GetFileFromPath(GetBaseTemplatePath())

You will need to know the "default path" to know how much of the front of
the path to throw away.

For example, if the path is
g:\inetpub\wwwroot\Florida\EastCoast\Miami\hotels.cfm, you want to get rid
of g:\inetpub\wwwroot\.

You could place this in the Application.cfm file as a global variable.
<cfset defaultPath="g:\inetpub\wwwroot\"

then remove this from the path, and treat the path as a \ delimited list.

Does any of this make sense?

I'm thinking we are going to used directory based file location.

Are your sections defined by 

directory based file location
fuseaction dependancy trees
sitemap tree
file naming convention
extra sgml/xml/comments in the cfm file itself
other
?
