Problem Description:
We have our users save Word doc files "as htm" with special strings in them. They upload them to us as "Templates". We replace the special strings and serve the html content back out to the browser and tell them it's a ".doc" file. This has worked for years and multiple versions of CF.
Now with CF10 lots of our user's docs are coming over with a messed up "Â" character that should not be there. If I remove both cfheader and cfcontent it is fine. If I add either back, it is messed up.
Steps to Reproduce:
Put the attached htm and cfm files in a folder. Run the CFM. You should be prompted to open a word doc.
Actual Result: In CF10, it will have strange characters.
Expected Result: In CF9 it will be a perfectly normal word doc.
Any Workarounds: No. It's broken.
