cfcontent to microsoft word with image 1

[peterswan]

Hello,

I'm trying to add send some HTML content to a word document from a mouseclick on a webpage. The HTML loads into the word doc fine, but the images won't show up.

My code looks like this:

<cfcontent type="application/msword" />
<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="Attachment; filename=ccbagenda.doc">
<cfoutput>#ccbagenda#</cfoutput>

Does anyone know how to get the image to display?

Thanks,

Peter

since the word document actually refers to that image, you will need to send those images on to the client's machine as well...


hope it helps...

Hi Falcon's eye,

Would I add another cfcontent tag, such as:

<cfcontent type="image/jpeg" deletefile="yes" file="image_name.jpg">

Thanks,

Peter

If the image is available publicly, try replacing the SRC attribute with a fully-qualified URL before rendering the results.

Hi Phil,

No, it's not publicly available. This is a company intranet that is SSL secured.

The src attribute in the image tag is qualifed URL path to a file on our server that looks like the following:

"

https://servername.com/rootfolder/images/image_name.jpg"

Thanks,

Peter

I guess my real question is: Is the image available to the recipient? If it isn't, you'll have to convert the document to a full-blown Word doc, or investigate the method that Word uses to publish docs as HTML and mimic that method. It usually involves including supporting images in a subfolder. I think this is what Falconseye was alluding to.

This issue has been solved. It turns out we had installed WSSO (Web Single Sign On) which sends the user back to the login screen when trying to access any folder on our server. What we'll have to do is create some sort of common area underneath the same root and store the images there, or make them publicly available.

Thanks for everyone's help,

Peter
