RE: Application.cfm Problem
No, this is not correct. Application.cfm MAY have HTML in it -- but that HTML will be included at the top of EVERY PAGE! If that's your intention then it will work. I have coded apps before that use Application.cfm to write the entire HEAD (tailoring the title by looking at cgi.script_name) and beginning of body. It can be a nice way to standardize a web site's look. -Original Message- From: Sean Daniels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 19, 2001 11:52 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Application.cfm Problem Put your output in a different file in the same driectory as application.cfm and run that file.

RE: Application.cfm Problem
Martin, It strikes me as very strange that you would be getting a 404 error based on whether or not you ask for a variable value. (I'm sure it strikes you as strange, too!) It seems to me that it ought to be throwing a "variable not defined" sort of error. How could the CFOUTPUT statement possibly "know" that you are calling on a variable that you defined in the Application.cfm? It would have to "know" that in order to request the page and result in a 404. What is the rest of the code on this page? On the output page, I would comment out everything but the HTML headers and the bit of code you listed below. I would also comment out everything but what's below for the Application.cfm. Then see what happens. If that doesn't work, keep commenting stuff out until it does work. I'd temporarily replace the DateFormat and TimeFormat functions with simple values. I'd comment out all the CGI variable references. Hopefully you'll be able to pinpoint exactly what line is doing it. Once you see the line, I'll bet that the answer comes more easily.
