Adding the following lines will resolve the problem.<br /><br /><cfheader name="Pragma" value=""><br /><cfheader name="Cache-control" value=""><br /><br />There is a microsoft bulletin about the problem.

This is incorrect and causes an error message. Documentation for the <CFHEADER> tag does not list the attribute "filename". I believe the examples on this page are incorrect and misleading and should be corrected. 0 0 2007-01-04T11:47:30 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00000232.htm#54426 Contrary to any other known definition of "binary data," <cfcontent variable="..."> can only use the a variable if its binary data is sent through a process known only to <cffile action="readBinary" > and <cfchart>. There is some sort of undocumented java type that is required. With specialized knowledge, there may be a way to use anyone else's definition of binary data with cfcontent after re-casting the java objects in an unsupported manner which will likely break in future versions of coldfusion. In other words, these tags are the only places where coldfusion is a strongly typed language.<br /><br />This means that any coldfusion loosely-typed variables or output from a <cfexecute> must be written to a file instead of std. output, which can produce a bottleneck based on your fixed-disk speed in some situations.<br /><br />Attempting to do so will result in the nonsensical assertion that the server could have something other than binary data in its memory:<br />'"java.lang.String" is not a supported variable type. The variable is expected to contain binary data.' bizarrojack 0 0 2006-10-16T22:19:46 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00000232.htm#42533 the CFHEADER tag in the examples is malformed. Syntax is<br /><br /><cfheader <br /> name = "header_name"<br /> value = "header_value"<br /> charset="charset"><br />or<br /><cfheader <br /> statusCode = "status_code"<br /> statusText = "status_text"> niko1 0 0 2005-11-21T08:42:05 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00000232.htm#35891 It's worth noting that the <cfheader> tag should appear before the <cfcontent> tag if a content-disposition / filename is being specified. Otherwise it seems the <cfheader> tag is thrown out. 0 0 2005-06-23T14:24:25
