Ah. There is a BIG difference in CFHTTP/CFHTTPPARAM behavior between CFAS 4.0.x, 4.5.x, CF 5, and MX! All of them obey DIFFERENT but SUBTLE rules!
For 4.0.x: The damn thing actually stores the cookies it received! And AUTOMATICALLY sends the cookies back to servers that own the cookies when it makes subsequent HTTP calls! And btw, CFHTTPPARAM DOES NOT URLEncode the NAME or VALUE of a name/value pair (URL, COOKIE, Headers, FORM, et al). (Or was it the opposite?!) For 4.5.x: CFHTTP decided to stop auto-sending (and managing) the cookies that it received! Still no URLEncoding of name or values. For 5.x: CFHTTPPARAM AUTOMATICALLY (you cannot do anything to prevent or circumvent) URLEncode the VALUE but leaves the NAME unescaped! Woohoo! For MX: CFHTTPARAM decided to URLEncode BOTH Name and Values (you cannot do anything to prevent or circumvent)! Consistency and Documentation...

I've been screwed by CF 4.5.1, which is what the production server is still running (don't ask). The Domino guys gave me a form page to test with, and I could fill in the fields with all the ???s I wanted and it worked. After reading every CF book on my shelf (It's amazing how little worthwhile text there is written on CFHTTP) I decided to try this on my CF5 test server, and it works just fine. Thanks for the ideas, excuse me while I go crawling back to those Domino guys I disparaged earlier. -reed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
