Isaac your solution works just fine with the location...

Hi Pat,
That's a pickle... afaik cfheader wouldn't normally prevent you from
using cflocation, however, I believe cfcontent flushes the content
(the file) to the browser immediately, at which point you can no
longer use cfheader or cflocation due to the fact that both of these
rely on the creation of http headers to function. (Once any content is
flushed to the browser, all http headers have already been flushed
along with it.) You may or may not be able to use the cflocation tag
before the cfcontent tag -- I wouldn't bet on it. And you may or may
not be able to use _javascript_ (location.replace()) after the cfcontent
tag to relocate the browser - again, I wouldn't bet on it.
What is the next page you're relocating to? Is it another file
download or a "thanks for downlaoding" page? If the latter, I would
say I think there may be a better approach to the html, you might try
this:
<a > href="" target="_blank">download</a>
