Hi there,

I've been trying to implement a csv file download with the following code:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

1.       <cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment;filename=thefile.csv">
2.       <cfcontent type="application/csv" deleteFile="No" file="theFile.csv">
3.       <!--- Data ouput code goes here --->
4.       </cfcontent>
5.  

But a page load error occurs stating the file cannot be found? When I change the cfheader value to inline;filename=theFile.csv the file displays but doesn't prompt for a download? Could someone point out where I am going wrong please?

Thanks,

Chromis

The answer was in the file attribute of the cfcontent tag. The new code is as follows:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

1.       <cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment;filename=thefile.csv">
2.       <cfcontent type="application/csv">
3.       <!--- Data ouput code goes here --->
4.       </cfcontent>
5.

If you're specifying a file attribute for cfcontent, it needs to be the full path.
