Hello all, I am having a small problem. I am attempting to generate excel files using coldfusion and then force the user to the excel file. The client has webwasher content filtering on their network and I get the following error message from webwasher when attempting to view SOME of excel files:
The transferred file "http://192.168.4.122/sup_report/exceloutput/OPR_7_2007_0.769483807854.xls" has been blocked by Webwasher. The server returned a file of type application/vnd.ms-excel but the content of this file is of a different type. This is odd to me as the same CF function generates the excel file content. The code is nothing more than a loop over a query that outputs a HTML table and saves the content in a variable and then dumps the variable into a new created file with extension .xls and the files do open in excel no problem. Also, I have written some sample files in XML per MS Tech net articles on how to do so. These files also work in excel, but not through the browser. I am about to pull my hair out on this one as these folks have decided that adding this Intranet site to a list of sites for webwasher to bypass is simply not an option. Thanks in advance for all your help, Wes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion 8 - Build next generation apps today, with easy PDF and Ajax features - download now http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/coldfusion/cf8_beta_whatsnew_052907.pdf Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:286350 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
