Chad, No.. The root would not fire, but anything put in the "application" scope (anything named application.this or application.that) would exist in both scopes, and if you chose to overwrite application.something it would be overwritten in both scopes.

What happens if someone has a bookmark to a sub folder "users" that has its application.cfm page with the same application name as the Root application.cfm file. Does the root application.cfm fire at all? Like if I have session.foo or application.foo defined in the Root application.cfm. Will those variable be set when a user hits the "users" folder application.cfm? > -----Original Message----- > From: Ben Nadel [mailto:b...@bennadel.com] > Sent: Friday, April 17, 2009 12:03 PM > To: cf-talk > Subject: Re: multiple cfapplications > > > Chad, > > Applications on the same box that have the same name *are* the same > application, as far as ColdFusion is concerned.
