cflocation is not redirecting properly

[marekss]

I recently encountere a problem with cflocation.
When i use it like this:
<cflocation url=" http://www.abc.com/submission.cfm?cat=4&pid=534672">
it is working fine, but the problem is when I include url encoded perameter like
<cflocation url=" http://www.abc.com/submission.cfm?cat=4&pid=534672&page=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abc.com%2Ftest%2F9999%2F534...
Then it is not redirecting and browser is displaying error message that the request is not redirecting properly.
Is there a bug in cflocation or am I doing something wong?
Please let me know

I copied your tag to my Coldfusion 8 server. It works.

Could the problem be caused by other code? What happens when the test page contains just the tag, and the page submission.cfm contains just

<cfdump var="#url#">

I am using CF7 and do not know if that is CF7 issue.
When I remove page url parameter it works fine, so maybe there is something wrong with the way page parameter is encoded.

Make sure there's no white space in your URL, especially chr(10) or chr(13)
characters. Those especially are illegal.

It might also be worth while running an HTTP sniffer on the client PC to
see what HTTP traffic is being generated by the process: it'll give you an
idea as to what part is going wrong.

What's the EXACT and complete error message you're getting? Is it a
browser error or a CF error?

Below is a browser error that I am getting:

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

IE does not display error but it never redirects either

Did you act on / investigate any of the other points I made in my preceding
post?

According to the Firefox wiki, (look for redirect loop) in regards to your error message

http://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox:1.5_Network_Error_Messages

"Change your cookies settings in "Preferences" to accept cookies for this site. "

I am using CF7 and do not know if that is CF7 issue.
Easy to find out. Just copy

http://www.abc.com/submission.cfm?cat=4&pid=534672&page=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.abc.com%2Ftest%2F9999%2F534...

into your IE and then into Firefox. What do they say?

The problem was with chr(10) or chr(13) being part of the query string.
