Trying to force a download using cfcontent and input from last week thread.
Below is full download page's code.
1. Works properly, forcing download with a txt, a pdf, .xls, .doc
2. If item is .jpg, get in IE6 "An error occurred while attempting to open
the file. Windows NT error number 5 occurred." In Netscape6, get
opening/closing html and body tags
3. In #2, doesn't go to the cfcatch routine.
Appreciate any help why works for some, but not jpg.
Download page's code:
<CFSet thePath = request.BasicPath & "Documents\">
<CFSet theDoc = Url.theDoc>
<CFSet full2doc = thePath & theDoc>
<!--- ensure that requested file exists --->
<CFIF NOT FileExists(full2doc)>
<cflocation url="noAvailable.cfm?type=notDwnLd">
<CFElse>
<CFHeader name="content-disposition"
value="attachment;filename=#theDoc#">
<CFTry>
<CFContent type="unknown" file="#full2doc#">
<CFCatch type="Any">
can't seem to get this
<cfabort>
</CFCATCH>
</CFTRY>
</CFIF>
