I need to capture an entire URL and send it in the body of an email, using CFMAIL. I'm looking at my CGI variables using CFDUMP, but can't seem to get the entire URL string, including the http:// or https://. Help?

Both methods worked for me to on CFML8 setup. However, I need the #bookmark value and both attempts above do no include the bookmark information. Does anybody have a clue on how to preserve bookmark information from the URL line? Thanks in advance.

That part of the URL is intended for the browser, and is not relevant to the server so is not transmitted with the request, so it never gets to the web server, let alone the CF server.

If you need that info, you're gonna need to send it some other way.
