I've been thinking of a new method of presenting dynamic content,
specifically the list archives. At the moment you get to a single post by
passing an ID on the url. Even if this is 'hidden' using SES Urls or the
like, your still passing something.
My idea is to use the application.cfc to 'catch'

Are you sure Application.cfc will fire for that? Because
Application.cfm doesn't.

I think I'm not making myself clear here. I'm speaking about a CF based url
rewriter, not a generic 404 catcher. If an url is written in a specific
manner (messages_4_33432) then it'll translate into a valid and expected
page. This is designed as a way to format specific pages that normally would
This is pretty much exactly what I designed the FriendlyURLServlet to do.
I'm in the middle of adding some functionality to that to allow you to
specify a redirectHandler in web.xml that will cause all requests that
match the servlet mapping to be passed directly to the handler.
so if you had

display-nameFriendlyUrlServlet/display-name
When I saw FUServlet, something else entirely came to mind.
But anyway, there are lots of tools that will rewrite URLs, of course, and
I'd strongly recommend that anyone interested in doing so use

Really?
I'm sure a good psychologist would have a thing or two to say about
that, but that's kinda OT ;-)
But
And when has that stopped me from reinventing the wheel? :)
The point is to see if it is possible and viable for its own sake and for
usage. With FUServlet and other technologies I may not have full control
over logging as to where someone came from, what they thought they went to
and what the
FWIW, You should be able to get all of the information you mention below
if you are using the FUServlet, but as you say, it's worthwhile to see
if what you want to do is viable because it would not require the user
to have control of the server and it's fun to play with ideas :-)

Will application.cfc be executed whenever CF fails to find the
messages_4_38946.cfm page?
Theoretically it should.
Unless you're using a shared server you can accomplish this by specifying
a missing template handler in CF Administrator and doing the work in that
CF page. I've done this

I think you'll find it is not. Application.cfc gets instantiated and
executed at the beginning of
Just like Application.cfm
