I've ran into some other amusing issues with CFCONTENT, and the only way I found of getting IE to show a different filename was to add it on the URL after the template for example: www.mysite.com/download.cfm/report.csv <http://www.mysite.com/download.cfm/report.csv> This works except you can not pass the CFID and CFTOKEN on the URL... Can you please be more specific on this other method? Regarding the "simultaneous" download - it's probably just javascript launching the download by changing the window.location to the download file URL, once the "thankyou" page is loaded. ---------- From: John Foulds [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 25 August 2000 5:45 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: how to bring up file download window with one click? > it should be fairly simple. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! It's a pain to even serve the correct filename and not the serving template name in IE using cfcontent as a trigger. On a big bank job in the Spring, I found a fix using a little known clause I discovered in RFC1867 (the original W3 file upload spec) and used it to trigger the correct name from an autolaunch download template using cfcontent. If that is what you are trying, look into the [Content-disposition: attachment] clause.
