get the web root path programmatically?

[ajdklfajdlk]

I've got a column in a database with an absolute path to a file on our webserver.
What function can i call to return the webroot where the CF server is actually running?

I tried getContextRoot() but that returns a coldfusion temp directory.

This should give what you're seeking.

ExpandPath('/')
