Hi there

I have set up my coldfusion application to have dynamic urls on the page, such as

www.musicExplained/index.cfm/artist/:VariableName

However my variable names will sometimes contain backslashes, such as

www.musicExplained/index.cfm/artist/GZA/Genius

This is causing a problem, because my application presumes that the slash in the variable name represents a different section of the website, the artists albums. So the URL will fail.

I am wondering if there is anyway to prevent this from happening? Do I need to use a function that replaces slashes in the variable names with another character?

Thanks
