Hi
I use fr document management application with filename und mime-type stored
in a database:
The queryname is to the database is getFilename
<!--- slash fuer os --->
<cfif findnocase('Windows',server.os.name)>
<cfset slash = "\">
<cfelse>
<cfset slash = "/">
</cfif>
<!--- filename zurueckaendern --->
<cfscript>
// replaces underscore in the stored filename with spaces
orgname = replace(orgname,'#chr(95)#','#chr(32)#','all');
// get path
pfad = ExpandPath('file_f8/' & slash;
// full path for file
file = pfad & getFilename.file_name;
</cfscript>
<!--- download nach passwortcheck ... --->
<cfif len(pwok)>
<cfheader name="content-disposition" value="attachment;
filename=#orgname#">
<cfcontent type="#getFilename.doc_mimetype#" file="#file#"
deletefile="no" reset="yes">
</cfif>
Works well for me
