Re: Extract an URL Variable name?
I did something like this relatively recently, with the added requirement that both the variable name and the value be encrypted (fun, eh). On top of that, there was a handler page that I had to ensure was continuing to attach all of my url vars to the url for cflocation. I'll give you my code snippets here and hopefully you can mine something useful out of them: Handler page looping through variables to attach url scope to cflocation url: Then on a given page where I needed to know if an ID had been passed in > If I'm passing an URL Variable - with the variable name itself being > dynamic, what's the best was to extract the variable name (not the > value) on the receiving page? > > As in: > for: index.cfm?somevar=somevalue > I need to return "somevar" on the receiving page as a value. > > or for: index.cfm?bigdog=bruto > I need to return "bigdog" on the receiving page as a value. > > The receiving page won't know what the variable is in advance... > > Did that make any sense at all? > > > __ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus > signature database 5263 (20100708) __ > > The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. > > http://www.eset.com > ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:335298 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

You can examine all the members of the URL scope, which can be treated like any other structure.
