Is <cfdocument> reliable?
I just upgraded to CF MX 7 and have been testing <cfdocument>. I have a
potential new client that I am trying to sell them on CFML specificly for there
needs of publising professional printable reports from a web browser. The
problem is that I put cfdocument flashpaper or pdf around a report and in many
cases it will generate a page with nothing but characters like the following:
??B???-??U?[V\zFBVvZzFrbbrT???/..mll??jhh???V*Cz{?||??|z?x+???xWEEE~~~XX
XJJJ}}?\.g?X]]]??=??Ww??z?V6?k[jJ??M??(k????M??GL???D???? When I
try a smaller report sometimes it works, but then that same report on another
computer in the office will he those charaters? Can I 'bank' on <cfdocument>
and be sure they will work from my potential client 100% of the time or am I
just doing something wrong? Thanks

The first time it sees an HTML page, and it remembers that everytime you
refresh.
Try closing the browser, and opening it again, and going straight to the
site (after you've changed it to PDF). It should come up fine, and
consistently.
Or, you can change the url. Maybe add a url parameter you're ignoring?
[url]http://myserver/mycfm.cfm?testing=1[/url]
Firefox doesn't have this issue. You can swap from HTML, to pdf, to
flashpaper, refreshing between, etc.
This will happen with the reporting feature as well. Sometimes you get
an error in the cfreport, and it renders the error page in HTML. You
fix the error, and then refresh, and it's all garbled.
One of the many reasons I use Firefox :)
