Thank you Denny, I will continue to experiment.
Thanks, Mark -----Original Message----- From: Denny Valliant [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 17, 2006 7:59 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Passing Java Applet vars back to CF Here is some crappy code that lets you pass a CF session around, sorta, by using the cftoken, cfid, and application name. <cfset tracker = createObject("java", "coldfusion.runtime.SessionTracker ")> <cfset sessions = tracker.getSessionCollection(appName)> <cftry> <cfset thisSesh = sessions["#appName#_#acfid#_#acftoken#"]> <cfset thisGrid = thisSesh["livegrid_#livegridname#"]> <cfloop list="#structKeyList(thisGrid)#" index="sv"> <cfset arguments[sv] = thisGrid[sv]> </cfloop> The above example is a snippet from my livegrid experiment. Thus the grabbing of the passed session's ["livegrid_##"] var. I ran into this problem because I'm a bad coder, as in I couldn't figure out how to have a cfc that isn't part of any particular application have access to the calling page's application and session vars. Some of the stuff spans requests, so I couldn't just slap them in the request scope. Eh. If it's any clearer, I'd still like to know what best practice would be for this scenario, but I fear that it's going to be "write better code". =-] As for the actual question, you don't need a session to pass form vars around. Or you shouldn't, AFAIC. I assume you could always include the cfid and cftoken in the URL, and that should preserve the session, depending on the setup, but that might be what you mean by url.sessionID, I'm not sure. Sorry no real solution to your problem, but I'm still a little fuzzy as to what the scenario is, funny as that sounds. This little snippit has power though.
