Here is my question: In the cfhttp tag, I need to fill in the url, username, and password fields. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions on any way dynamically retrieving this info to place in the tag so to make it more hack proof. What I am trying to do is send a formfield from a remote host to a local server and just want to find ways to protect the info for security reasons. I am using CF 5.0 Thanks, Michael Firth --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
