I'm trying to cfhttp post some form variables to a vendors
web page. Their web page needs lowercase form.fieldnames,
Coldfusion forces all form.fieldnames to uppercase. What
setting/attribute have I over looked?????
In the example: username and email come across as USERNAME
and EMAIL
If I was handling the post page that would work...of course
if I were handling the post page in CF it wouldn't matter as CF is
case insensitive.
I'm using cfhttp to post to an external non-cf site that is
expecting lowercase fieldnames, which should redirect to that site
if Statuscode=200. When cf pass the http request, it makes all the
fieldnames uppercase.
The CFHTTP tag is on my site and post to a vendor's site.
I must not understand your suggestion: <cfset
form.fieldnames=lcase(form.fieldnames)>. Because I don't have
form object available to my pages unless I post to my site.

In the fieldnames variable yes. But I do not think that is
the case with the raw request data, which is what the other server
receives. Post the data to a test page and look at the
GetHttpRequestData() content. The case of the field names should be
the same as in your cfhttpparam tags.

passing vars in upper"... I was like, "I'm not!"

Yes, that did not sound right. Thanks for posting the
resolution. That is good to know.
