I do already have a disclaimer page. Lets say I have a page called content.cfm and a page called disclaimer.cfm. The user will use a CMS tool to write the content for the content.cfm page. They have no control over the layout of the page (headers, navigation, footers, or anything like that). Using this tool, the user creates the content and creates any links. The user does NOT see any HTML at all. The CMS tool does everything for the user.
Now when a user creates a link in content.cfm they prefix any link with http://mysitename.com/disclaimer.cfm?destination= For example a link a user might enter into the CMS tool might look like: http://mysitename.com/disclaimer.cfm?destination=http://someurlhere.com/disclaimer.cfm?destination=http://go.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=healthNews&storyID=12037965&src=eDialog/GetContent So the disclaimer page is displayed first before redirecting the user to the intended link. What my disclaimer.cfm page does now is extracts the value from the destination url variable and a javascript then redirects the page to that value. But it doesn't work when there are multiple URL parameters in the destination URL, like in the Reuter link above. I'm trying to find a solution that would allow the disclaimer.cfm page to do all the work of extracting and creating the redirect link correctly without having the user do anything different on the content.cfm page. I hope this clears up my problem.
