Word of warning:
There are two functions...
getTemplatePath()
getCurrentTemplatePath()
If I remember right one of these returns the path in ALL CAPS when used on a
Unix machine, the other one does not. I don't remember which is which...

good one
why not make it work on Windows and Unix... Just add a "/" next to the
"\"...
<cfset MyDirectory=ListLast(GetDirectoryFromPath(GetCurrentTemplatePath()),
"\/")>

Howabout:
<cfset MyDirectory=ListLast(GetDirectoryFromPath(GetCurrentTemplatePath()),
"\")>
Is that what you are talking about?

Subject: Directory Name
Hello List members,
I am trying to set the current directory name as a local variable. Just the
dir name mind you, not the full path. The directory names within the app
will be varying lengths but always at the end of teh same tree.
for example
D:\webroot\accounts\8888 would have a local variable in the application.cfm
of 8888
D:\webroot\accounts\528004-4 would have a local variable int he
application.cfm of 528004-4
I have been trying to creatively devise a way to use CFDIRECTORY to do this
but I have only been able to work myself up into a mind knot. Has anyone had
to do this? Any insight? I would greatly appresiate any input.
Tony Gruen
