Fusebox is well, Fusebox.  Extended Fusebox is still fusebox with a few
minor changes.
Forgetting about whether to use myGlobals.cfm over app_locals/app_globals is
a mute point  (Hal was doing that with Fusebox before XFB so I wouldn't
really say that's a big woo hoo as a rule for XFB.

XFB provides a "mapping system" that Fusebox didn't call for.  You assign an
alias to a circuit application's location.  Now with that in place you call
all circuits/fuses through the main fusebox, using "." delimited lists as
your fuseaction.

so....

fuseaction=login.main

would tell the mapping system to look up "login" in the circuits map.  It
would find that login was mapped to oh say "members/login" now it does a
cfinclude of the index.cfm from that directory and passes the remainder of
the  attributes.fuseaction's value to it.  If there is nothing left it
processes that circuits switch/case statement.

By the same token if you had a single element attributes.fuseaction  (say,
"main") it would skip over the logic used to parse the fuseaction and go
straight to the switch/case statement of the parent fusebox and look for the
case "main".

How's that for a really simple explanation?
