sorry to hear that. do you have some feedback, comments, or questions about
it so that i might write one that's more clear?
<tip type="ColdFusion" author=".jeff">
versions 5 and earlier have a bug that results in url variables declared
multiple times to only result in a single value rather than a list of
values. this has been fixed in cfmx. for example:
?foo=bar&foo=far&foo=boo
url.foo should equal bar,far,boo. in cfmx it is. in cf5 it will equal the
last value of the last variable it encounters boo.
for versions prior to mx, the following code should fix that:
<cfscript>
urlData = ListToArray(cgi.query_string, '&');
StructClear(url);
for(i = 1; i LTE ArrayLen(urlData); i = i + 1)
{
name = URLDecode(ListFirst(urlData[i], '='));
value = URLDecode(ListLast(urlData[i], '='));
if(NOT StructKeyExists(url, name))
url[name] = value;
else
url[name] = ListAppend(url[name], value);
}
</cfscript>
</tip>
