On most shared hosting, they have something called ISAPIRewrite for iis server, its free and easier to customize. Look into it.

Nothing that is not going to require you working with your hosting provider.

The only ways I know of do do this are with url rewriting and/or custom
404 handling. Both of which will requires some level of access to the
configurations of the box.

Have you ruled out that your provider will not work with you on this?
It is a very common request and many of them are set up to handle it.

Any other ideas for this? I can't seem to find anything now that easycfm.com is back up.

I am pretty sure that there is a tutorial over at easycfm.com that deals with that specific need - there is a sample of code to put in application.cfm/cfc that will take the directory structure and turn it into variables and values.

The site isnt loading for me at the moment, but when it does, I will post the link.

Not sure on a shared hosting environment, but my only thought to get that to work if you're allowed to setup a default page in the event a page does not exist.

When that page runs, it could then pull the value out of the url, and assign it to a variable.
