More specifically, what types of application parameters should be set up at application initiation. In my applications, I query the database to setup my entire navigation systems (an array of structures) then I store it in the application scope. I also store DSN information in application scope. In some frameworks, information is pulled from an XML configuration file. Fusebox has these abstract circuits that I think are stored in the application scope. I am not sure what Mach-II stores in the application scope upon application initiation. The question is not how to use application.cfm but what makes up a solid application scope variable enviornment? What's in the application scope variable enviornment of Mach-II, Fusebox etc. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:276542 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
