>>I meant that the original string was encoded using CF 4.5 - and can be decoded properly. Perhaps if you encoded the file using 5.0 it would eliminate the problems decoding?
Well, I'll try, but I doubt it makes any difference. Base64 is not some internal format proper to CF that may change from one version to another: It is an Internet standard. Your assumption would imply that CF 4.5 encodes wrong base64 but still decoded back right, or the same thing about CF 5. I think if this was the case, this should be known. I get the same error anyway when I read a gif file, so if there is an error, it is in CF 5. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm
