Thanks Peter,
I had actually started off with "image/jpeg" instead of "image/pjpeg". Same
deal.
The strange thing is that this all works if I go directly through the template
that uses the CFCONTENT tag. I wonder what that means?
Cheers,
Tania

Try removing the <CFHEADER> line altogether. Another idea would be do mark
the jpgs as "image/jpeg", instead of "image/pjpeg". Maybe the browser
doesn't like the progressive part of the jpg image type header.
Just some random ideas,

Weird eh?
