I think I'll answer that with the time honoured "Figleaf Daves' .. Mime test page" http://www.figleaf.com/demo/mimetest/
if that page ever dissappeared there will be trouble... :-) WG -----Original Message----- From: David Sampson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 June 2003 19:50 To: CF-Talk Subject: CFCONTENT Problem Once again I find myself running to you for help! Boy am I glad you're here! Okey doke; I want to push the results of a query out to a delimited list (or excel, or ms word) such that someone can click on a link and download a .txt (.xls, .doc) file. I'm able, using cfcontent tag to create a list and make it available for download as a .cfm file. How do I get it to download as a .txt (.xls, .doc)? Here's the code for my test page: <.!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <.cfparam name="do" default="not yet"> <.cfif DO is not "not yet"> <.cfcontent type="application/msexcel"> <.CFQUERY NAME="qryCountries" DATASOURCE="Country"> SELECT PK, CC, Country FROM dbo.tblCountries </CFQUERY> "PK","CC","Country" <.cfoutput query="qryCountries"> "#PK#","#CC#","#country#" <./cfoutput> <./cfif> <.html> <.head> <title>TESTER</title> <./head> <.body> here's a test of the cfcontent tag.<br> <.a href="testpage.cfm?do=now">Country Codes</a> <./body> <./html> This pulls a list of countries with their codes in a comma delimited list but tries to save it as "testpage.cfm" not .txt (or .xls as you'd expect from the mimetype of msexcel).
