Have you tried specifying the attribute redirect="no" in your CFHTTP tag, then looking at the value of cfhttp.responseHeader.Location?

Thanks for the quick replies.

I tried cfhttp with redirect="no" with cfhttp.responseHeader.Location and that worked!

Unfortunately, the domain is shows is clinic.mcafee.com not the final destination of us.mcafee.com, it seems there is a redirect on that link as well .. so I am working with a link that redirects to a redirect link ...I guess I will have to find a way to loop the process.

Thanks again!

Not an unusual situation.  Should not be two hard to loop the process.  Just get the URL from the responseHeader.location field and apply another <cfhttp...> call.  Do so until you get a non 30x for that http status.

Hmm, you mean this link then redirects onto another URL? Like TinyURL would?

I don't know if there is a way to do that. I think cfhttp only returns info on the request you make, therefore, the request is the page that redirects.

Interesting problem though. Maybe someone with more brains than me can help you solve it.
