Remove the CFOUTPUT tags from your CFHTTP tag. The CFHTTP code should look
like:
<cfhttp
url=""> at=sc1l1&ext=.csv"
method="GET"
name="qStockItems"
columns="Symbol,Change,LastTradedPrice"
textqualifier=""
delimiter=","
firstrowasheaders="no">
You never use CFOUTPUT inside of an attribute value. If you want the value
to be dynamic (or partially dynamic), you would use code like:
attr = "value"
attr = variable
attr = "value #variable# value"
Note the pound signs in the last example. The CFOUTPUT tag is not needed,
nor is it valid in this context.

Subject: CFHTTP Help needed
The code I originally wrote has morphed into the following with some help
from others on the list. However I am getting an error. It seems to not like
the attribute variable for the query. One other thing. The URL from Yahoo
seems to like the symbols to be separated with a + sign and my code is not
providing that but there does not appear to be an error because of it. Any
help would be appreciated
Here is the error:
Attribute validation error for tag cfloop. The value of the attribute query,
which is currently "qStockItems", is invalid. The Error Occurred in
