RE: (ot) passing URL parameters
My issue was calling a page that sent me an Excel (actually a CSV) file with passed parameters via the URL. I was getting a page not found error *unless* I introduced an error (like changing the name of one of the URL variables). Then I would get an error page. My conclusion was that the page not found error was erroneous and something else was the problem. One suggestion was: Most probably a caching issue, the 404 page is cached in the browser or an intermediate proxy. Turns out that was not the issue. Since you're creating a CSV file (my host doesn't have the latest CF version) you use #chr(13)# and #chr(44)# for linefeeds and commas. Turns out I had a typo and had #chr13# in one place, so the error was a variable not found error that I finally found after stripping out all the file creation language. Just an FYI in case you find yourself in the same boat. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:340558 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

(ot) passing URL parameters
Not strictly CF but at least it's in a CF program... a href=AnotherPage.cfm?id=4duh=somethingdit=else In AnotherPage.cfm are references #URL.id#, etc. If everything (at least as far as the URL references) is correct, I get a page not found error. If I intentionally cause an error, say by leaving out dit=else, then the page is found and the error is displayed. If germaine, the page I'm calling outputs an Excel file... I'm at a loss.
