Well, I'd be careful before utilizing that strategy, particularly for
a case like Oracle. If you use a DB function around a column name,
such as you have with LOWER(directory), then Oracle will not use an
index to search if one exists on that column. This can have a major
impact on query performance, depending on the size of your table.

Or you could call this UDF and not worry about it (adapted from
Christian Cantrell's blog entry at
http://www.markme.com/cantrell/archives/002195.cfm:
function getFileSeparator() {
var fileObj = "";
fileObj = createObject("java", "java.io.File");
return fileObj.separator;
}
in your code:
<cfset DirPath = GetDirectoryFromPath(GetCurrentTemplatePath()) />
<cfset CurrentDirectory = ListLast(DirPath, getFileSeparator()) />
