RE: Renaming a CFContent File

IETF RFC 2616 section 19.5.1
(translated: Internet Engineering Task Force, Request For Comments #2616)

(Interesting note, Content-Disposition, and other headers are part of HTTP,
not HTML)

Most RFCs are extremely dry reading, but anything you could possibly want to
know about Internet protocols is in them.

My favorite RFC:
RFC 1149: A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers

Thanks, Michael. That worked like a charm.

Where did you know what to put for values in the CFHeader tag? Is that
documented somewhere?
