CFFILE - Mac Stuffit Files

[lucky7crazy8]

I've encountered a problem using CFFILE with MAC Stuffit archive files on MAC IE 5.0. Somehow during the file upload/download process, a cr/lc is appended to the end of the stuffit file, causing file corruption.

I haven't been able to determine if this is a ColdFusion CFFILE problem or the MAC IE 5.0 browser performing the appendage.

Has anyone else experienced this or have any solutions that I can try?

Thanks.

I know there was a problem with <cffile> in earlier releases where it would add control characters when it shouldn't. If you read in a file with <cffile> and then wrote it back out, you would find additional new line characters in the file. I believe they added an attribute called &quot;addNewLine&quot; that would prevent this when set to &quot;no&quot;. I just checked and it doesn't appear that with the action set to &quot;upload&quot; that the addNewLine attribute is used. You might try it just to see if it has an effect but the docs seem to indicate it will be ignored.

I assume that you don't have a way to test a different browser at the moment. If so, that would be the next best step.
