RE: CFHTTP

[David L. Penton]

Title: RE: CFHTTP

The browser has nothing to do with it.  I took the URL in question and placed it in a script I wrote using the Microsoft.XMLHTTP component and it retrieves the correct data.  There are other components out there that can do this (ASPHTTP for example, and it does not require ASP to be used - only COM compliant clients) but they are not equal.  What happens is certain urls in the Response Text are not resolved properly in the Inet feed from the site

(in this case, http://expatonline.community.everyone.net/community/scripts/director ) and the resultant text becomes a 404 error or something else just as cryptic.  Perhaps you should look into using anoth method to make your HTTP feeds? (like Microsoft.XMLHTTP or some other Inet server)

I tried that and it still did not work for me.

 

Just out of curiosity, what browser are you using?

Take out resolveurl="yes"  it will work then.
