RE: Mystery Character/ Adobe's Crack QC Team
http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/6/CFML_Reference/functions-pt121.html Well, thanks. That worked to get me the number of the character. It's 8226. That will help. I have to add, this is the second time I've copied a routine directly from the Adobe web site, and it's the second time it didn't work as published. Try it - it's missing the method="post" statement in form and won't run as is. They must have one heck of a crack QC team over there. Robert B.

Output your character value to the screen with asc(sFunkyCharacter) and you'll find out the value of it. Another thing you could do, if you really wanted to, was check all asc() values if each character in your string and if they exceed 255, then leave them out. That will ensure it works properly on Windows File System (which I'm assuming is the issue you are having).

RE: Mystery Character
Doesn't asc('x') do that? Or am I missing something?

RE: Mystery Character
I don't see that character in the ASCII list, but it's a bullet character. Mac users can insert it into file names using option 8 on the Mac. When they upload a file with that character it converts to something else (also not in the ASCII list) that can't be found when used in a URL string. I'd replace or strip the character on upload but I can't figure out how to make CF even see it. All I know is it's Option 8 on Mac. Robert B.

NO. The character got converted to a period. It looks like a bullet. Robert B.
