Steve,

This is one off, but this post explains how you can exploit the latency
between storing the file and handling or deleting it IF you store your temp
file in a web root accessible folder:

David,

That is certainly another point altogether. As I said, the framework does
allow you to configure location and URL path for uploaded files which
*should* allow a URL path like "/file.cfm?file=".

I have added testing that as a relatively high-priority task for my next
round of work on the framework.

Thanks,

Steve
