>- see footer for list info -< Hey, yeah I have had mixed results but mainly its caused by :
1) Browser makes request for the CFM that has CFHTMLHead and CFLOCATION. 2) Server executes CFHTMLHead and store the string in a "special" buffer. 3) Server executes CFLOCATION, dumps the buffer in 2 to the output buffer, then dumps the "standard" HTTP header and HTML text (for backwards compatibility for braindead browsers such as Mosaic 2.0) for a HTTP 302 (Object Moved). 4) The HTTP header in 3 miscalculates the length of the HTTP payload, and only accounted for the HTML text in 3, and not the other stuff in 2 (the CFHTMLHead buffer). Hence, the Content-Length header is totally wrong. 5) MS I.E. thinking it is all hot and cool, decided to TRUST the Content-Length in 4, and clears its buffer by the amount specified in Content-Length, and hence, did not clear the CFHTMLHead stuff that it received from the server. 6) Then MS I.E. dutifully picked up the following page based on the "Location" HTTP header, and then dumped everything to the HTML rendering engine which includes the HTML from the final page prepended with the uncleared buffer in 2. Hence, you get the junky stuff on top of the page. Lesson? Try not to use CFHTMLHead until you are really really sure that it is the FINAL page and the user won't be redirected. <sic/> -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephen Moretti (cfmaster) Sent: 17 December 2004 16:40 To: Coldfusion Development Subject: Re: [CF-Dev] HTTP headers appearing in browser >- see footer for list info -< Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) wrote: >>- see footer for list info -< >> >> >Are you using <cfhtmlhead> in your application?

It is a problem that I've seen in the past, but for the life of me I can't remember what causes it. What version of CF are you using Mark? Any chance of a URL to look at? I vaguely remember something to do with the HTML, but its completely eluding me at the minute.
