Dumb suggestion maybe but have you specified a proxyServer and proxyPort number in the cfhttp tag.

What can I tell you? Now I know CFHTTP works fine internally (to scrape an intranet site) but try to access an external site and I get "connection refused". Sadly, I'm not privvy to much info on how our network is set up so anything I need to know, I have to "reverse engineer". is this normal? that CFHTTP can get blocked by proxies or firewalls? I thought the request would be on port 80 so it won't matter. But it could also explain why I can't consume external RSS feeds from within the internal network. thanx barry.b -----Original Message----- From: Rod Higgins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 30 October 2003 5:20 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: screen scraping > no, the CFHTTP answers were correct (thought so!). the trouble I was having > was getting past the firewall. try it with an intranet site and it works.
