Is there a way you could post form and strip out all the URLSessionFormat eg
check the HTTP_REFERER without the URLSessionFormat like CFID=16539&CFTOKEN=88882009&jsessionid=64301634311145628979265

Thanks BKBK for your reply, but that did not do. What I did to strip out the URLTOKEN is this
#SpanExcluding(http_referer,"?")#

In my own case if you use "cgi.query_string" it will fail since the srings passed are "UrlToken" thus it would have been:
<cfoutput>#ReplaceNoCase(cgi.http_referer,"?#urltoken#","")#</cfoutput> and this would have worked. But what if it were a "query_string" then it will fail. So SpanExcluding is a better option.
Now, you've lost me. I don't understand the distinction you make here. Any code that deletes the string "?#cgi.query_string#" from a URL will also delete "?#session.urltoken#" from it. In general, the string session.URLToken is contained in the string cgi.query_string, not the other way round, as you seem to suggest.

That said, there are of course at least a dozen possible ways to do it. The choice is yours.

But SpanExcluding strips out the entire query string too?

This regex should remove the three attributes and their values, but leave the rest of the query string intact:
REReplaceNoCase(http_referer,"&?(cfid|cftoken|jsessionid)=[^&]+","","all")

Try it.

<cfoutput>#ReplaceNoCase(cgi.http_referer,"?#cgi.query_string#","")#</cfoutput>

will output the referrer without query-string attached, assuming there is a referrer, of course.

BKBK,
The safest way I think this wiil be done is to use the "SpanExcluding". In my own case if you use "cgi.query_string" it will fail since the srings passed are "UrlToken" thus it would have been:
<cfoutput>#ReplaceNoCase(cgi.http_referer,"?#urltoken#","")#</cfoutput> and this would have worked. But what if it were a "query_string" then it will fail. So SpanExcluding is a better option.

Thanks for all your help.

referrer without query-string:
<cfoutput>#ReplaceNoCase(cgi.http_referer,"?#cgi.query_string#","")#</cfoutput>
