Detect Directory

[LB]

Is there any way to detect the fully qualified directory that the
requesting file resides in. For example, if my page was
[url]www.mysite.com/detect.cfm[/url], it could return something like
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\mysite\detect\ ?

I'm trying to put together a simple installation script, and I figure
having this auto-detected would save a lot of hassle having to ask the
host for the fully-qualified path.

Thanks for any help in advance

Answering my own post here for the benefit of anyone else that may be
interested, found the solution as follows;

You can find the fully qualified path of the CF template using
CGI.CF_TEMPLATE_PATH.

Then do a replaceNoCase(CGI.CF_TEMPLATE_PATH,MyTemplate.cfm, "")
to eliminate the name of the template.

Just adding to this(!), found an easier route is to simply use;

GetDirectoryFromPath(CGI.cf_template_path)

Sorry!
