Problem:

The value provided by cgi.path_info gets truncated if a semi-colon exists in the stringFor example this url:/index.cfm/pathInfoGetsTruncatedAfterThe;YouDoNotSeeMe/Shows up as this when outputing cgi.path_info:/pathInfoGetsTruncatedAfterTheEverthing after the ";" gets truncated.  This affects ColdFuion 8 as well and does not appear to be a JRun bug as it exists which deploying CF on a container like JBoss Tomcat.This affects all CFML frameworks such as Mach-II that support SES / Friendly URLs and causes hugh problems as there is not any workaround available.  I was asked to file this bug as requested by Adm Lehman (ColdFusion Product Manager).
Method:

- Create an .cfm file and dump the cgi scope in it: <cfdump var="#cgi#"/>- Hit the .cfm file with path info data in the URL: nameOfFile.cfm/pathInfoGetsTruncatedAfterThe;YouDoNotSeeMe/You will see that everything after the ";" is truncated.
Result:

None

This is critical for any Web app that passes escaped entities in the URL string (which many do)
