[thelist] Coldfusion : CFFTP without source "file"

How exactly do you use cfcontent so that from a cf variable e.g

<cfset html_content = "Hello World">

to passing localfile using CFFTP e.g

<cfftp action="PUTFILE" stoponerror="No" localfile="??????"
remotefile="#FileOnRemoteSite#" transfermode="ASCII" connection="test"
passive="#passive#">

What do you put in ???????

It wants a file to send, it will not "run" the file (so using cfcontent
is no good).

The cfcontent tag can deliver the content directly to the user as a text
file (or other things) via their browser. No messy accumulation of files
needed. Just use the deletefile attribute in the tag.

I learned this from thelist, of course.

Good luck.
