Here is the page: http://webapps1.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/approved_plans.cfm When there, select a state from the drop down menu and then it takes you to: http://webapps1.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/view_approved_plans.cfm Here is the segment of code from view_approved_plans.cfm: <cfset CURRENTDIRECTORY = #GETDIRECTORYFROMPATH(GETTEMPLATEPATH())#> <cfoutput> <!-- FILE="http://www2.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/#fiscalyear#/#statecode#_#f iscalyear#.txt" --> <cfif #statecode# NEQ "0"> <cffile action="Read" file="http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/#fiscalyear#/#statecode#_# fiscalyear#.txt" variable="phacodeoff"> <cfset codeofflist=ListToArray(phacodeoff,";")> </cfif> </cfoutput> And here is the error I am getting: Error Diagnostic Information Error processing CFFILE Error attempting to read 'http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/02/al_02.txt.' No such file or directory (error 2) The error occurred while processing an element with a general identifier of (CFFILE), occupying document position (449:11) to (451:25).

If you go to http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/02/al_02.txt you will see that the file is there. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks, Mitko PS. I think the app server is ColdFusion 5 on Netscape Enterprise Server. ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
