Subject: Re: URL's with variables
Have you ruled out the web-server? It should (in theory) work in any
browser, they are just using a text-based reference to an information source
(i.e. url) and shouldn't care how it is typed (note tahat I haven't read the
rfc's though...).
To see if it is the server, do a request and see what you get back (a 404, a
302 or a 209?). What I think could be the problem is if index.cfm is not set
up to be the default handler. Is the dev/stage/production environment using
similar setups (in web-server?).
I am using the form below quite extensively, on cfmx bws and Apache (doesn't
work in bd bws though, i have filed a bug for that). Not fully SES, but it
makes the url shorter.
host/dir/?/paramname/paramvalue
(this is Mach-II so all cf requests go to index.cfm, which is the entry
point for the framework)

Subject: URL's with variables
| I am just curious to kow if anyone knows first hand of any problems
| when it comes to using or not using the document name in a url with
| variables...
|
| example:
|
| site.com/index.cfm?somevar=value
|
| is the same as
|
| site.com/?somevar=value
|
| I just did an entire site this way and it worked just fine on the dev
| server. but once it went to the demo server (i am told) that it
| caused alot of errors.
|
| Ive hit almost every page in the site with variabels in the url on
| the dev box and taken the vars out of the url manually to hit the
| page again and I havent found one incident where the error trapping
| didnt redirect as it should when certain vars were missing.
|
| Has anyone experienced any errors (or any differences for that
| matter) when you exclude the template name from your urls?
|
| there is only one index.cfm in the entire site and that is the
| default doc for the site in IIS
