I wasn't aware that bookmarking pages within a Fusebox site was difficult.
I'd guess that the URL might not be pretty, but as long as the necessary URL
attributes were there, everything should work fine.
I guess you could do something like this, but I don't know that you'd need
the CFCONTENT tag for this. You could simply pass a "fake" file name to CF,
and have it use that as the redirection property. For example, you might
have a URL like this:
http://www.whatever.com/index.cfm/action1.html
Of course, this wouldn't work under NT 4 SP 6, or Win2K for that matter, due
to how IIS now processes URLs.
