To resolve the problem put this code into login.cfm
<cfif isDefined("client.counterVar")>
<cfset client.counterVar = IncrementValue(client.counterVar)>
<cfelse>
<cfset client.counterVar = 1>
</cfif>
You can use cfinclude or call the login.cfm as a custom tag, either way the
client scope will persist to the next page load where you can check it for
the appropriate action.
