Try it: cfhttp url=file://d:\www\customer2\ method=get Dude - I think we must be on different wavelengths here. CFHTTP makes a HTTP request. Are you saying that your web server will respond to a file url like that? No, it won't. What do you get when you run this on your

I think that Jochem's point is that CFHTTP won't allow you to use file paths. On the other hand, a COM interface to IE would probably allow you to do such a thing, just like you can use file paths in IE on your desktop, in addition to regular URLs. I grok this. But darnit, we weren't

I grok this. But darnit, we weren't talking about that. If you want to talk security and COM, fine. I was talking about a web thunbnail generator. That's what is bugging me. His original posts made it seem like the idea of generating a thumbnail of a URL was insecure. It's not. The idea

I think this brings up interesting security issues for virtual hosting companies. In this case, accessing files with IE would be done using the application server's user. Thus enabling all of the virtual users to see each other's files since there is only a single application server.

And when you start using CF in virtual machines, I suspect you might need one license for each VM, which might be a bit expensive. What, you can't just run CFMX in virtual distributed mode? ;-) Just kidding ~Todd Todd Rafferty ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://www.web-rat.com/ Team
