If you've got a query like that, why store it in the SESSION? Store it in the Application scope. Store it once and you're done. -Original Message- From: Jeff Guillaume [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2006 3:11 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Sorting by Colu

Storing the results in SESSION is a nifty (and fast) method, but I'd only recommend it if you know your result sets will always be relatively small. You don't want 100 people caching a resultset of, say, 10,000 rows of data. You'll run into memory issues. ~

The quickest fix would be to pass your search parameters on the URL instead of FORM (action="get" instead of action="post" from the submitting page). Then grab the current URL, minus the sort parameter, to re-use for the next output. Category .etc. This will retain the search parameters (s

Well, yeah, because the form variables don't exist because you're not submitting a form. There are a couple of ways I would attack this: 1. Cache the initial query to the session scope. Then do a query of query to sort when one of the headers is clicked. 2. Have the form use method="get" so that
