This is how I am doing it Got it from farcry's download.cfm
<cfheader name='Content-Disposition' VALUE='attachment;filename=#saveAsName#' /> <cfheader name="cache-control" value="" /> <cfheader name="pragma" value="" /> <cftry> <cfcontent type="application/pdf" file="#pdfName#" deletefile="yes" reset="yes" /> <cfcatch><!--- prevent unnecessary log entries when user cancels download whilst it is in progress ---></cfcatch> </cftry> Thanks but this is for downloading a PDF file that exists on the server. I was asking about using the <cfdocument format="pdf"...> tag, which generates the PDF on the fly. But the same <cfheader...> tag works for this as well. -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA --------- | 1 | | --------- Binary Soduko | | | --------- "C code.
