    I want to change my urls from using general parameters and primary keys (IDS) with ?'s &'s in them to descriptive urls like descriptivekeyword1/descriptivekeyword2.cfm. How is this done on a IIS server with Coldfusion and no .htaccess file/ modrewrite?

    If anyone could point me to a good tutorial for this, I would appreciate it. I'd rather not have to install any third party software to do this, but if I have to do that I might consider that.

    i know on apache/unix it is done through the .htaccess file and mod_rewrite. I do not know how it would work if you are on a windows server though.

    For cold fusion you want to look at a tag in the cold fusion exchange called HURL or you can find it on http://www.websolete.com/exchange.cfm

    Example: http://www.berings.com/aboutus.cfm/go/id=2
