RE: How to get the full url requested in cf?
Gotcha... thats basically what I've used for a while ... In a page called app_globals.cfm that is ALWAYS included in every page via application.cfm App_globals.cfm then has a few vars set in it to be used through out the site request.webroot = 'http://#cgi.server_name#'; request.imageroot = '#request.webroot#/images'; etc.. so anywhere and everywhere in the site, links, images and cookies are all referenced or created with #request.webroot# So if you come into the site as www.shop.com you will always be at www.shope.com Same goes for http://shop.com. If thats what you came in on, you'll stay there If you want everyone to be on a non www site at all times: request.webroot = http://#replace(cgi.server_name, 'www.', '')#'; request.imageroot = '#request.webroot#/images'; all links and cookies that are created using request.webroot now will not have www. In them If you DO want www... just change request.webroot to.. request.webroot = http://www.#replace(cgi.server_name, 'www.', '')#'; so it will always have 'www.' That takes care of linking everything up in the site and pulling images from the same place (www or not www) You then need to make sure no matter where the user comes in, that they either have or dont have www (whichever you want) Try this in your application.cfm cfif listfirst(cgi.server_name, 'www', '.') url has www in it... Stay or redirect? cfelse url does NOT have www in it... Stay or redirect? /cfif To redirect them, just use... cflocation url=#request.webroot#/#cgi.script_name#?#cgi_query_string# addtoken=yes/no If its the home page, they may end up somewhere like http://myshop.com/? But that wont hurt anything But if they come into your site at the url http://shop.com/somedir/index.cfm?var1=1 And you want them at www.shop... The cflocate would take them to exactly where they are, plus the www http://www.shop.com/somedir/index.cfm?var1=1 -Original Message- From: stylo stylo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 06, 2005 10:22 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: How to get the full url requested in cf?

How to get the full url requested in cf?
I don't want the file system path, I want the full url of the page requested, e.g., http://www.shop.com/index.cfm .

For 'http://www.shop.com/index.cfm?var1=1var2=2' Cgi.server_name would give you the 'www.shop.com' Cgi.script_name would give you the 'index.cfm' Cgi.query_string would give you 'var1=1var2=2' Find() would not ensure that www was the first thing in the name so... cfif listfirst(cgi.server_name, .) is www Then www was in the url. /cfif Or cfif left(cg.server_name, 3) is 'www' Then www was in the url. /cfif I dont know why you need to know if www is there or not but if you had access to IIS, you could have http://www.shop.com point to a different place than http://shop.com all together -Original Message- From: stylo stylo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 06, 2005 6:59 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: How to get the full url requested in cf?

HTTP_HOST and SERVER_NAME both work. (On my local setup I thought they didn't because of my local url and missed them.)
