Got this from another list... Use a combination of CFHEADER and CFCONTENT
to force the download. Make sure that the content type is unknown
otherwise, if a registered type the browser will try and display...
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="filename=#URL.imgfilename#">
<cfcontent type="application/unknown" FILE="x:\path\#URL.imgfilename#"
DELETEFILE="No">

Subject: Force File Download
I am trying to offer a link on a website, for ALL kinds of file types. I
want to force file download even for files that are an understood MIME type,
i.e. GIF, JPG, DOC, XLS, etc. I do not want this to open in the browser.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Vance Duke
