As another alternative, you can change the code to use a real template for the redirection instead of using a prettified URL. E.g., domain.com/go.cfm?k=123 instead of domain.com/123 Lisa,

When I click on the shortened urlshrink url, I get a 404 file not found. what am I doing incorrectly on this for the setup. I have IIS 6 and have a separate url setup (not yet available to public). I have the index.cfm and index.htm as the default documents. I also added the forward.cfm as a default document. I have everything working to create the values and insert them in a database.
