Hi,
We've been using the custom tag Cf_Excel. (the custom tag allows to take
write a dynamic query and output the contents of that query to MS Excel.) It
worked fine until we had to reinstall all our server. (coldfusion server +
IIS + Mspackoffice)
Now, we've got the 405 http error (405 Method Not Allowed).
To obtain the excel spreadsheet, we've got to put the following url : (the
ct_excel tag is on the whatever.cfm page
<a href="whatever.cfm/excelfile.xls">Download</a>
When We try the following syntax : <a
href="whatever.cfm?excelfile.xls">Download</a> (note the "?" instead of "/",
it opens coldfusion studio and the opened file contains the data of the
spreadsheet !
We tried another test: we cut the file extension like: <a
href="whatever.cfm?excelfile">Download</a> , that launchs a message box
allowing to download the file.
We don't want to download the file, we want that the contents of the query
appears in an excel spreadsheet which itself is contained in browser.
Do you have any idea of what we could have forgotten in the configuration of
the server?
Thanks in advanced
Laure
