I'm at wits end. I am trying to get some special characters, é (eacute), etc. to display. This is a call to the UPS Online Tools License using cfhttp with a single cfhttpparam of type "XML". I've got this working except on the following system:
Web Server: Apache/2.0.40 (Red Hat Linux) CF Version: 6,1,0,63958 This server appears to have some different defaults set up or whatnot as if I load a .cfm file, in order for the characters to display properly I have to place the following on the page: <cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="iso-8859-1"> cfcontent, meta tags, etc. have no effect. Only cfprocessingdirective. Here is the plight. I can manually type those special characters on the same page as where I'm outputting cfhttp.filecontent (containing the License text returned from UPS). They look fine, yet the special characters returned from the UPS server are not displaying properly. I've tried adding charset="iso-8859-1" to the cfhttp tag and have used all the possible combinations of cfprocessingdirective, cfcontent and meta content tags. The characters that are hard coded into the file display properly only with the cfprocessingdirective tag. At what point between the UPS server and the page output on the Linux CF server could I be losing the encoded characters? Thanks many many times in advance. :) -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations, Inc. _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ Web Based Solutions / eCommerce Development & Hosting http://www.twcreations.com/ - http://www.cf-ezcart.com/ Toll Free: 877.207.6397 - Local & Int'l Phone/Fax: 386.789.0968 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
