If you don't have access to the other site to install a stub, then
you will get whatever the other serves to the browser as if you
visited the page and sublitted a form.
The returned results can be parsed (usually with regexps).
You usually must do a little detective work to determine how to pares...
do some page requests & display the source
The Connection Failure problem may be a CF bug (especially CF 4.5)
If you post your CFHTTP code, I'll try it on CF 4.0
