Are you running CF locally for testing? Use Charles, Service Capture, or Fiddler then to see the request as well as response. Also, Eclipse Web tools has a webservice tester...wait, that's not a WebService, rather a RESTful web service you are using, sorry to be pedantic there but its a big difference SOAP vs REST, can't use the WebService tool in Eclipse for that. Yeah, a man-in-the-middile tool like Charles, Service Capture, or Fiddler can let you peek into much and verify that CF is indeed sending the header and all correctly
nice SO posting on test tools for this sort of thing http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1087185/http-testing-tool-easily-send-post-get-put these would test that the service does what its supposed to before adding CF to the picture....eg, see if you can blame someone else :) Douglas Knudsen http://www.cubicleman.com this is my signature, like it?
