There is nothing you can do on your end as Leo mentioned. RR is updating their main page as of
5/22/08 and they are aware of this. CFM files are once again.,.....ON THE SERVER. Not a problem with your computer.

I am confused. I access a doc system at work fine from my pc as do others from their mobile devices. However, I just got a smart phone and when I attempt to access a .pdf, say, I get a message stating that "this device does not support this type of file" and asking if I want to save this ".cfm" (not .pdf) file to my memory card. You seem to be saying that the problem is on the webserver side, however, I can view and download the .pdf, .doc, .xls, etc... with other browsers from other machines. There would seem to be some sort of difference between browsers/user/viewer configurations as opposed to the webserver/page itself. I accept that how the page is constucted creates this problem (note that I have to trouble downloading .pdf files from the irs website) however, it is also clear that other devices/browsers have no trouble getting the correct files.

Reread the last paragraph of the article. It's not something YOU can correct, UNLESS you are the owner of the server you're try to access.

I have read the article. It explains what may cause the problem, but does not offer a solution. I cannot view CFM pages. Same problem as Susan, GDF and Holly. Please help.

I am having hte same problem as susan, when I click on a cfm link I get a prompt to save or open; saving saves the file and open does nothing.

Hi,

When I browse to a site which has .cfm files they are not being displayed as HTML but this is only happening on one particular PC, the others that we use are able to display the pages correctly, or rather as we would expect to see them. Is there anything that I can do on the local PC to correct this?

They were displaying as HTML before, but are no longer on this specific PC.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Susan
