all the same thing? Maybe if you incremented the name of the window so
they all opened as different windows it might work.

Subject: Forcing control back to the server from the client
The intention of the following code is to force a download to the client
of an array of files. The problem is that it forces out the first file
but exits the loop (or leaves it hanging) and control is lost at the
server side. How can the server regain control to carry on with the
loop?
<!--- STEP 1: Create Array of files to be used to force the files out to
client ---> <cfset arr_filename_to_download =
ListtoArray(form.File_to_download,",")>
<!--- STEP 2: Loop through array and have _javascript_ initiate the
download to the client ---> <cfloop from="1"
to="#ArrayLen(arr_filename_to_download)#" index="i">
<cfset filepath = arr_filename_to_download[i]>
<script language="_javascript_">
alert("File:
<cfoutput>#arr_filename_to_download[i]#</cfoutput> will be deleted after
it is downloaded.")
helperWindow = "window" + <cfoutput>#i#</cfoutput>
newWindow = window.open('', helperWindow)
newWindow.document.write ("<cfheader
name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment;
filename=#GetFileFromPath(filepath)#">")
newWindow.document.write ("<cfcontent file="#filepath#"
type="application/octet-stream">")
newWindow.document.write ("<script
language='_javascript_'>window.close()<\/script>")
</script>
</cfloop>
