Hi,

I'm using cfhttp to grab quotes from yahoo finances. The code is like 
below :

<CFOUTPUT>
<cfhttp 
url="http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=^DJI&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgv&e
=.csv" method="GET" resolveurl="true"></cfhttp>

#cfhttp.filecontent#<BR>
<BR>
<H3><B>The mime-type:</B></H3><BR>
#cfhttp.mimetype#<BR>
<H3><B>The Status Code:</B></H3><BR>
#cfhttp.statuscode#<BR>
<H3><B>The Raw Header:</B></H3><BR>
#cfhttp.header#<BR>

</CFOUTPUT>


If I run this page, I got the following error :

The requested file is not ASCII text and can not be rendered.

But if I change the url into http://finance.yahoo.com , it will works... 
any idea why ???

Does anyone has a better idea how to get quotes, I decide to get it from 
yahoo, cause I don't know where I have to go to get this quotes ??? Does 
anyone ever do this before ??? One more thing, it causes the page really 
slow if I use cfhttp, any better idea beside scheduler ???


Thanks,


Fisichella.
