well, I'd like the blank window to close instead of just sitting there with the user wondering what to do. It doesn't seem that I can put a close before the cfcontent either.
I put this content on a seperate page because otherwise it tries to take all my page information (banner, menus, etc) and tries to make a file out of that too. So now it goes to a seperate page, sets up the content, then does a cfcontent. This page appears empty so I'd like to close it. Did I explain that well or am I missing the question? >> I display a database (cfdump) with a "download database" button at >> the top.
