    Default GetTemplatePath()

    Is there an alternative to GetTemplatePath() so that I can return the URL
    instead of the absolute path from the server?

    I want

    [url]http://home.constps.org/index.cfm[/url]

    not

    c:\cfusionmx7\wwwroot\home.constps.org\index.cfm

    I am having trouble using the absolute path for some reason.

    All suggestions are appreciated!

    Thanks all!

    I think that you might be able to use one of the CGI variables. Try doing a cfdump on the CGI scope and see if one of those values will meet your needs.

    You can use the following code to completely rebuild a url and its query
    string. It will even account for server port so if you are using the dev
    version of CF it will still work.

    Hope this Helps,
