Hi David,
Thank you for your answer.
But what is it I'm supposed to do?
Is it that i'll write
<cffile action="upload" destnation="c:\temp"....
accept="GIF, JPG"....>
Do let me know.
Thanks.

Well, if you really have "images/gif, images/jpeg" in there, it shouldn't
work anyway. Those are invalid mime-types. I have never had problems with
the accept attributes. In fact sometimes it works too well, when
progressive jpegs are used, which even though they have .jpg extensions,
their mime-type is PJPEG. I would suggest however, that a better choice
would be to force a valid set of file extensions such as GIF or JPG instead
of trying to rely on the browser to properly report the mime type.
