cfcache, generated comment, & DOCTYPE

[sonoflight]

Well, I was hoping this was going to be fixed in CF7 but it is not. I'm pretty
sure there is no way around it, but I figured I'd ask here.

When using server based page caching with <cfcache> tag. An html comment is
created on the first line of the page being cached. However, the first line is
reserved for the DOCTYPE declaration. With the comment generated by CF, it
cancels out the basis of having a doctype declaration, and therefore does not
allow standards based, css websites to be integrated with server caching.

Can this be fixed / worked around?

This used to work with another problem.

Try adding this as the first line on the page:

<cfcontent type="text/html">

Man, this is FRUSTRATING... Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. I've got the same issue.
I'm surprised this hasn't been discussed more on the web. Took me quite a while to find this little thread about the issue.
