Uh...not as I understand it. CF looks for an Application.cfm in the
current template's directory. If one isn't found it looks in the next
higher directory and keeps moving up the directory tree until it finds
an Application.cfm or reaches the root directory. It never runs more
than one Application.cfm unless you do something like <cfinclude
template="../Application.cfm"> in an Application.cfm file.

Note that CFMX7 will use Application.cfc if one is found and ignore
Application.cfm.

Subject: RE: CF Rules on including Application.cfm

It is as simple as you stated.  If you run a .cfm file, ColdFusion looks
for an Application.cfm file in it's directory, and in the parent
application's root directory.  It will run both of those (assuming there
is a lower level directory Application.cfm file)
