Wow, this one really boggles my feeble mind. Found an issue where session variables do not persist when browsing in an IFRAME on IE. I Googled it and amazingly found the solution here.

Basically you just add:

<cfheader name="P3P" value='CP="CAO PSA OUR"'>

And they magically work. Anyone know what the hell that does?

todd sharp's Gravatar Wow...that's some detailed explanations! Suffice it to say it "just works", or is there anything to be cautious of?
