RE: Mappings? Virtual Directories?
Hi Neil and Casey, thanks for your replies... My current cart structure is to have all of the front end in root and the cart admin and includes in a sub dir. So all the files that change in design are in root, and everything is static for each site in /cart. Each site has a seperate domain and database. "still confuddled* ...

We do this with a a few folders we use across sites on our box. One folder is a Images folder which of course needs to be created as a virtual directory since it is pushing content to the browser. The other is a cf mapping directory for code which does not need to be in the web root. Coldfusion needs to run this code but the browser is not displaying it directly so this type of folder does not need the virtual directory. casey On 4/28/07, Jenny Gavin-Wear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Before I go charging off in the wrong direction, I'd appreciate some ideas > on using CF mappings and IIS 6 Virtual Directories. > > I have a cart application, for example, being used by several client, and > currently when I make any updates I have the odious task of copy/pasting > the > new files to all of the sites. > > It strikes me it would be a heck of a lot easier if they all used the same > files. > > Any ideas on how I could go about this please? > > TIA, Jenny > > ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

Re: Mappings? Virtual Directories?
Is it the same code? Different domains? If it is not the same domain, use a ColdFusion mapping, it will be easier. If you want to use VD instead you can still do so, but you will need to do this each time you create a new one, and they will all need to point to the same file base.

Before I go charging off in the wrong direction, I'd appreciate some ideas on using CF mappings and IIS 6 Virtual Directories. I have a cart application, for example, being used by several client, and currently when I make any updates I have the odious task of copy/pasting the new files to all of the sites. It strikes me it would be a heck of a lot easier if they all used the same files. Any ideas on how I could go about this please?
