*.domain.com as a wild-card for any values that aren't otherwise set for
that domain. So you should be able to make it automatically throw people

Welcome
Hi, all...
I'm working on a real estate website
and for the first time, I'm setting up agents'
sites using subdomains.
I have some ideas on how to approach this, but
I thought I'd ask about those of you with experience
doing this kind of thing to offer advice.
First, on the folder structure.
Hey Rick.
Brief recommendation. You mentioned you're using Application.cfm still -
what you might want to do is add an Application.cfm in your /agents
subdirectory to modify whatever the original Application.cfm did to
set up the page...
/root/Application.cfm
original code ...
and queries?

a particular agent's version of the site.

This is a common problem. It sounds like having a single table with all of
the fields plus an extra field for the property 'type' may be a good idea -
or, in you Union query, select the property type for each row and pass that

select sa.street_number as prop_street_number...etc
for the property.
