I did some work with this not long ago and it definitely is a bit of a pain to get working. You do need to specify the charset in your cfhttp tag (ISO-8859-1). Passing the text of the license from page to page in a form field also tended to mess things up, so I copied it into a session variable and then read it out of there when needed which worked a lot better. It was also important when sending it back to the UPS server, to wrap the license text in an XMLFormat() and to include the charset in the header: <cfhttpparam type="HEADER" name="Content-Type" value="text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1"> HTH -------------------- Mary Jo Sminkey http://www.cfwebstore.com CFWebstore, ColdFusion E-commerce ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/message.cfm/forumid:4/messageid:246635 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
