A CFML variable name cannot end with a "." character error
I get this error when posting a form. The strangest thing, though, is that this error only occurs in Chrome and Safari. FF, IE and Opera all post the form without a problem. The Stack Trace does not point to a file to where this error occurs. A cfdump of cfcatch gives me some insight as to what the problem is, but I can't find any insta...

Best Way to Determine if *.doc File is RTF with Java or Coldfusion
So I have about 4,000 word docs that I'm attempting to extract the text from and insert into a db table. This works swimmingly until the processor encounters a document with the *.doc file extension but determines the file is actually an RTF. Now I know POI doesn't support RTFs which is fine, but I do need a way to determine if a *.doc...

The application works as it is below but if I add a zero to the loop in index.cfm it breaks. What's stor...
