eek. apples and oranges, my friend. not because it's in CF rather than
ASP, but because the site architectures are completely different. Take a
look at the code and you'll see what i mean.
or read my quick overview here:
http://lists.evolt.org/theforumarchive/Week-of-Mon-20020107/002583.html
the first logic is based on the section, not the action. it goes like
this:
switch (section)
case "user"
include user_logic
case "comment"
include comment_logic
case "article"
include article_logic
if you want to see this in the code, check out app_chooser.cfm.
then, user_logic would be something like this
switch (action)
case "userinfo"
include user_page_script
case "search"
include user_search_script
case "edit"
include edit_user_script
...
changing the order of the two series of logic would drastically affect the
site. all to unclutter the search?
like i said, look at the code before you go and say something like:
