Lets users implement File Transfer Protocol (FTP) operations.
File management tags, Internet Protocol tags
The tag syntax depends on the action
attribute value. See the following sections:
cfhttp, cfldap, cfmail, cfpop; Performing file operations with cfftp in Interacting with Remote Servers in ColdFusion MX Developer's Guide
ColdFusion MX 7: Added the result
attribute for file and directory operations.
ColdFusion MX: Deprecated the agentname
attribute. It might not work, and might cause an error, in later releases.
Use this tag to move files between a ColdFusion server and an FTP server.
This tag does not move files between a ColdFusion server and a client browser. You do this as follows:
cffile
action = "upload"
cfcontent
tag
ColdFusion MX security settings can prevent the cfftp
tag from executing. If you run ColdFusion applications on a server that is used by multiple customers, consider the security of the files that the customer can move. For more information, see the "Administering Security" section of Configuring and Administering ColdFusion MX.
