URL definition question

[DrStern]

Hi all!
I was browsing through the internet and I saw a URL structured like this:

http://www.thedomain.com/myFile.cfm/1/123

Does anybody have an idea on how can we interpret the "/" after the ".cfm"? Is that a FuseBox thing? Can we interpret that as a url parameter? Just like in:

http://www.thedomain.com/myFile.cfm?myVariable=1

Hope somebody have an answear. Thank you guys...

It's an ISAPI filter that you install into IIS called "url rewrite" or something like that.. I think there are a few products that work similarly, and there are equivalents in Linux like mod_rewrite for apache.

Nothing to do with fusebox, though, which is more of a programming philosophy, kinda sorta

Silverspecv,

Thank you. With this, I can start my research. Have a good one...
