Your problem is your assigning the cfhttp name attribute which causes coldfusion to treate the result as a query object.
This works with your code: <cftry> <cfhttp url="http://www.cleantechworks.com/cleantechworks/newfile.xml"; method="get" result="xml1" throwOnError="true" charset="utf-8"></cfhttp> <cfcatch> <cfdump var="#cfcatch#"> <cfabort> </cfcatch> </cftry> <cfset x1 = XMLParse(xml1.fileContent)> <cfdump var="#x1#"> --- Chris Gomez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm trying to access a xml file from a remote server > using CFHTTP.
