If you're storing client variables in cookies the cflocation will break them
always.
Change client variable storage to a datasource, use another way of
re-locating or use a locked session variable would be my suggestions.

Subject: Weird problem setting client variable
I have the weirdest problem setting a client variable and for the live of me
I can not see where the problem is. The problem is the following:
I have a form where the user can change the language of the site, one of the
fields on the form is a select box named "NewLang", now, once the user
selects the new language the form is posted to a template (ChangeLang.cfm)
which only function is to <cfset client.lang = newlang> and then
<cflocation> to the parent template. The first line in the application.cfm
is to <cfparam> for client.lang and set it to "en" if is not defined, some
how it is always set to "en" because client.lang is not defined.
Now I know app.cfm is always executed, so before ChangeLang.cfm is executed
the client.lang is set to "en" then the template is executed and client.lang
is set to the new language and a redirection occurs to the parent template,
client.lang should contain the new language, but is not because the
<cfparam> resets it to "en".
Can somebody see where the problem is...
TIA
