You have a CFCONTENT after the CFHEADER to actually serve the file,
right? CFHEADER doesn't actually serve the file.

cfheader and pushing a file to the user
I've got a section of a site where a user can access a number of logo
downloads, including tiff, jpeg, ai, or gif formats.
There are thumbs on the download page, with links on each thumb like:
This takes them to the resource_download processing page (located in the
same directory as the files to be downloaded), which runs a query to
record which logo they downloaded along with a date/time stamp.
What is supposed to happen next is that the selected file is pushed to
them so they can save it. This is where I'm having problems.
So, after the query runs:
Looks correct so far...
But, let's say I selected a jpg. The dialog comes up ("SAVE" or "OPEN"),
I select "SAVE", and when I try to open the file in Photoshop I get an
error "Could not complete your request because a JPEG marker segment
length is too short. The file may be truncated or incomplete.
If I just tell it to "OPEN" the file instead of saving - I get a blank doc.
If I grab the file FTP from the server, it seems to be fine and
saves/opens properly.
What's wrong here? Suggestions?
