So the DB peeps here have decided to lay the Oracle BLOB on me... woo hoo. Anyway, I figured out that you have to use CFQUERYPARAM to get the data in.
ex:<cfqueryparam value="#Binarydecode(TextAreaContent,"Base64")#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_blob"> Though I'm not sure if the funtion is correct, it doesn't error out like it would without it. Then I use this to display the content from the DB on the page: #BinaryEncode(DBColumn,"Base64")# Only problem I'm having is that the resulting string is missing all of the spaces. Ex: I save the string: "Run this test and see if it works all perty." When pulling it out of the DB using the function above I get: "Runthistestandseeifitworksallperty." Has anyone dealt with this before?
