Re: cfcontent question
The first question I would ask is "Why do they want the images stored in a non-web-accessible location" If the answer is something lame like, they don't want users to be able to download them, then you can get around this whole issue as you can tell them that there is no way to totally prevent a user from downloading the image. If they have some valid answer like, they are concerned about people uploading something malicious or in that vein, then you can use several tricks to do it. If you have CF8, you can use the writeToBrowser function of CFIMAGE http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=Tags_i_02.html Which allows you to load up any image from anywhere on a server into memory and then output it to the browser HTH =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

cfcontent question
I have been asked to make a change to a blog like feature. Specifically, they want to allow users to upload a single image per blog post but the images are to be stored in a non-web accessible location. When viewing blog posts, the images are supposed to appear within the text of the blog post. I had thought I would use cfcontent to display the image ... but when I do that, the blog text doesn't display. Does anyone know how to display an image from a non-web accessible location with some accompanying text? ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

RE: CFContent question ...
Welcome. :) I nearly started writing a whole bunch of stuff about how
that part is in the browser and you can only access what's exposed in
JS (which is pretty limited), browser variations, etc. etc... and then
decided it was probably best just to give a concise answer. :)

RE: Any Possible Bugs in CFMX - ? (Was - CFHEADER & CFCONTENT question)
Here's a snip from one of my apps: /> deletefile="false" type="application/octet-stream" reset="true" /> That's at 4 includes deep. You might try adding the RESET attribute to CFCONTENT. That will remove all content that has been previously emitted. I don't know about the headers. I suspect that if you've previously used CFHEADER to supply a content-type header, that CFCONTENT will write a new one, not replace the existing one, but you'd have to check for sure.

cfcontent question
Hey everyone, With CFCONTENT, my downloads are getting renamed? I've got a form submit (for a EULA) that goes to a page that uses CFCONTENT. 1. The user chooses the file from a list of links (filename is passed to the next page) 2. This page is the EULA form that has a hidden field for the filename. 3. Form submit button goes to a page that uses CFCONTENT to begin the download. Funny thing is, the process successfully carries the proper filename to the end, and the file dows download fine, but the name of the file gets changed to the name of the form action page. My files downloaded are all named coursematerials1.zip I'm using a zip file type: file="c:\protected\#form.filename#" > Anyone have any ideas why my downloads are getting renamed?

RE: CFContent question....
> Did NT 4.0 SP 6a fix the problem with CFCONTENT? I know 6 > broke it... but did 6a actually FIX it? No. The "problem" with SP6+ and CFCONTENT is that, on pre-SP 6 IIS servers, you could use a "fake" URL to tell the browser the file name of the downloaded file. Here's an example of this: http://www.figleaf.com/demo/mimetest/ This worked on those servers because of the way they parsed URLs - from left to right. They should never have parsed them that way in the first place. NT 4 SP 6 or higher, and Win2K, now parse URLs from right to left. If you want to use CFCONTENT to server non-HTML MIME types, and you want to specify a different file name, you can use the CFHEADER tag, as demonstrated at the above link. This works fine on SP 6+ or Win2K. Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ voice: (202) 797-5496 fax: (202) 797-5444 ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: CFContent question....
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 CFContent works fine in sp6a. You can't do the URL faking thing anymore, but that was a bug that was fixed & never should have worked in the first place. SP6 broke both CFContent and the URL thing. SP6a fixed CFContent, but not the URL thing. Since the two issues were very closely connected when 6 came out, there was a lot of confusion about what was broken in what release. As long as you don't do the URL fake thing, then SP6a is quite safe to upgrade for CF. FYI: Win2k (any SP) is the same deal -- CFContent is good, fake URLs are bad.

CFContent question....
I have searched the archive but can not seem to find the answer to this exact question... Did NT 4.0 SP 6a fix the problem with CFCONTENT? I know 6 broke it... but did 6a actually FIX it? Thanks.

I'm not using any MIME type that I know of.

CFContent question
I'm opening an existing Excel file using CFCONTENT. This works fine from the wwwroot on my hard drive. But, when I post the page on the company server, and view it, the web page loads but Excel does not execute. (I put the excel file in the same folder) I now wonder if Exel.exe has to reside on the server. Does it? Is there a way around this? I assumed if the user had Excel on their machine, they could view a file opened with CFCONTENT. Now, I'm not sure that is correct. Will someone that opens Excel and/or Word files from a web page please bring me up to speed on this?

Hi gang, When I use CFContent in IE, it opens my file (MSWord or otherwise) in my browser. That is, it still _is_ MSWord, but it's within my IE5. In Netscape, on the other hand, the same call to CFContent opens the actual application on my computer instead of in the browser.
