Hello,

I'm having trouble grabbing an ASCII file using CFHTTP
that's set with a non-text MIME type, and outputting that
as XML.

The files are pdb files (public molecular database entries)
that have a non-ASCII MIME. However, they're just plain text
files. On a CF4 server, when I to parse and reformat the file 
with cfhttp.FileContent, it returns:

  The requested file is not ASCII text and can not be rendered.

Trying to coerce it into a string using MID doesn't work.
It still comes back with the same message. I'm sure a CF5 ToString()
would do the trick, but the target server is a CF4 server.

Using the same code on my development machine with a local webserver,
it works fine if the pdb MIME is set to a text type. However, I can't
set the MIME for the online files as they come from a wide variety
of public servers.

Does anybody have a easy solution? 

Many thanks,

- Ian
