In your example, the variable CGI.PATH_INFO would return the value "/index.cfm/news/sample-headline".

You can treat this as a list delimited by "/" or strip out the name of the script to get the variable information you need.

Is that what you mean?

Kind of.

Basically what I have now is when a page gets called from the database table the URL is in the form of

http://www.domain.com/index.cfm?id=977

Is it possible to turn (or mask) the url above into a Search engine friendly URL such as

http://www.domain.com/news/headline (if its a press release)

http://www.domain.com/vacancies/jobtitle (if its a job vacancy) etc...

perhaps based from the metadata?

How would the CGI.PATH_INFO return the value "/index.cfm/news/sample-headline".
