Hi Bryan, Sorry, your bit of Witango code didn't show up in my Mail Client for some reason, but I saw it in Ben's reply.
Like Ben said, use of the POSTARGS attribute specifies HTTP POST (not shown in your CF debugging), but if CF wants a specific "Content-Type" specified (which is an optional HTTP spec with Requests), then do this little trick: <@URL location="http://www.mydomain.com/post_to_me.cfm"; postargs="state=FL" USERAGENT="Witango <@VERSION><@CRLF>Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"> Notice the <@CRLF> in USERAGENT? This inserts a carriage-return/line- feed, which is all that separates HTTP header properties. Doing this, you can add any number of extra HTTP properties. Hope this is what you're looking for. Cheers....
