No luck :(

It seems that cfhttp handles posts differently in 5.0 and that's causing 
the
problem.

My immediate fix is to dump it all on the URL, but this makes me extremel
y
nervous, as URL data truncation is a function of client, and I have no id
ea
what the size limits are on the url for cfhttp...  255 char? 1k, 4k?

Anyone have any idea what this limit would be?

Try it without the URLEncodedFormat, we had a similar problem when
migrating
over.. What's happening is cfhttparam is encoding it automatically, and
hense your ddata is double encoded.

Has anyone experienced any problems using CFHTTP in 5.0?

This may be an old question, but I'm definitely experiencing a problem
with
code that works in 4.5.1 and fails in 5.0.

Here is a snippet:
<CFSET str="_notify-validate">
<CFLOOP INDEX="TheField" list="#Form.FieldNames#">
<CFSET str = str &
"&#LCase(TheField)#=#URLEncodedFormat(Evaluate(TheField))#">
</CFLOOP>
<cfhttp url="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"; method="POST"
resolveurl="false">
<cfhttpparam type="FORMFIELD" name="cmd" value="#str#">
</CFHTTP>

Those of you familiar with the Paypal IPN will recognize this code as
almost
exactly from their provided example.

What I'm finding is on 4.5.1 the http post is being received by paypal
correctly. However on 5.0 the first field, cmd=_notify-validate, is
not
being recognized by their server.

Anyone have any similar experiences or a work around?  I'm curious if
anyone
on list has written any code on a 5.0 server that interfaces with the
paypal
instant payment notification process?

Thanks
