Nick,

Did you every get this to work? If so, I'd be interested in seeing your final solution.

Roger

None of that works. It is weird, it returns the file, but returns it with no text in the file. When I look at the file it created on the server, it has the text in it.

Very weird!

Does the same script work if you do not write to the file system and do not use <cfsetting../> at the top of your script? eg:

<cfparam name="attributes.Last" default="">
....
END:VCARD
</cfsavecontent>
</cfoutput>
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="inline; filename=#attributes.vCardFileName#.vcf">
<cfconent type="application/vcard" reset="true"/><cfoutput>#vCard#</cfoutput><cfabort>

Also, maybe try your mimetype as 'text/x-vcard' and make sure the web server is set up to recognise this mime type.

If it still doesn't work, can you ensure that the 'vCard' variable is actually populated by dumping/aborting before the cfcontent tag runs?

Ok, so everything else works except for the recall.

When I download the file it comes in with the correct filename but nothing in the file itself. When I look on the server where the file is located, data is inside of it. When I download the file, there is no data present.

Any ideas?

A couple are in the Adobe Exchange

And a vCal udf I wrote awhile back targeted towards calendar data
