Definitely not a code ghost.


Since it hasn't happened again, and no one else has responded indicating that they've seen this, I have to assume that whatever the problem is is pretty isolated....

Then I'm stumped. I would expect that you'd have seen it before if this
was happening due to IE 6 (I presume that it's as popular at your site
as it is for most).  Perhaps search your logs for similar occurrences
and see if a pattern can be discovered?  Also (I'm not sure how you
update) but could this have been temporary?  Some code that made it out
for a few minutes so that you're now chasing a ghost?

Nope -- this is definitely something happening outside the code.

I'm not sure why this would happen automatically, but many people
convert the dashes to underscores as a matter of course (on the program
side).  For my purposes I do this and prepend the string with an "x" so
that it becomes a valid CF variable name.

Could code like this have been added by accident?

Subject: OT: browser converting dashes to underscores?

We use UUIDs quite a bit, and I got an error message this morning that
seems to have been generated by a browser that converted the dashes in
the url for the UUID to underscores.

Has anyone run into this before? or know what might cause this?

Relevant error info below; thanks in advance for any info --
