msaccess on 64bit

2012-09-25 Thread Russ Michaels

I know this is a sore subject, but the customer needs it for a legacy
system and no moving to MSSQL or MySQL is not an option right now.

I can get the DSN's working manually by doping this.

create DSN via

%systemdrive%\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe

and then via

%systemdrive%\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe

and then create an ODBC socket DSN via the CFADMIN to point to that DSN.

However this is a PITA and the client really needs to be able to create
them himself via the cfadmin, is there any better workaround that get the
Microsoft access DSN in the cfadmin working again on 64bit ?

RE: msaccess on 64bit

2012-09-25 Thread DURETTE, STEVEN J

I vaguely remember doing something with the Office 2010 ACE drivers, but I 
don't remember it well. All of our Access stuff was converted to SQL 2008 so I 
don't even have an example.

At least this might get you started.

RE: Any reason a cfhttp post can't be made in a component method?

2012-09-25 Thread Rick Faircloth

Ok... next question.

Can a jQuery ajax function be used to send post variables
to a component method and have a cfhttp function post those
variables to another domain, in this case,
https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll ???

I'm at my wits end trying to process form data into two parts.
The data fields that can go to authorize.net and the parts that
need to stay with me and go into my database. Authorize.net forbids
personally identifiable info from going into the merchant-defined fields.

Ergo, I need to post some of the form data to Authorize.net and
if a transaction is approved, post some of that info (not CC numbers, etc)
to my database, along with other info not pertinent to the transaction, such
as in honor of etc.

The easiest way I thought to do this was to use AJAX and submit some of the
data that way (I couldn't get a straight jQuery AJAX post to work...couldn't
get a response from the Authorize.net server, although the transaction was
successful) and I haven't been successful getting the form values with
jQuery AJAX and posting them to Authorize.net by send the form values via
AJAX
to a CFC method, which utilizes CFHTTP for the post.  No response from
the Authorize.net server.

If you know this will work, Ray, how much would it cost you to guide me
through a solution. I have a patient client, but this needs to get done.
I'm at the point now where I'm either considering going to session variables
or just putting all the post variables into a temp table in a database,
then processing the transaction, and, if successful, putting the transaction
data into a permanent table.

I just can't seem to work up a solution from everything I've read (which is
all
I could find) and everyone that would discuss this with me, including
calling Authorize.net, who said we don't support developers...

Can it be done? Can you do it? If so, how much to guide me through it?

Still have my hair, but not for long!

RE: Any reason a cfhttp post can't be made in a component method?

2012-09-25 Thread Brook Davies

Hi Rick,

There is no reason why this should not work via the CFC method or even via
the direct ajax method. Some gateways however restrict access to approved
IPs, so the ajax method, originating from the end user IP may not work
directly, which is why you probably want to route it through a CFC. The CFC
method is the best option anyways, because otherwise you would need to do 2
ajax requests to talk to Authorize and then send the results to your server.
You should just call a CFC (via ajax), your CFC should post to Auth.net and
then return record the result and return to the client.

If your transactions are getting approved via your CFHTTP post, then you
should be getting a result. What do you see when you dump the
cfhttp.fileContent result?

I have some authorize.net code you can look at that uses CFHTTP, just email
me off list and I'll send it to you. Its nothing special though.. just a
CFHTTP post and some list parsing code to parse the result...

Brook

How to set Locale to Malaysia

2012-09-25 Thread Dave Hatz

I have never worked with Locale before, but we have a client in Malaysia that 
wants us to use their Currency symbol of RM instead of $.  I have checked our 
CF8 for supported Locale's and don't see 1 for Malaysia.

Is there a way to set the Locale to Malaysia using CF8?

Justify text in CFDOCUMENT?

2012-09-25 Thread .jonah

I'm creating HTML with CF and then converting it to a PDF with CFDOCUMENT.

It doesn't seem to support justifying text. Is there a way to make it do so?

I've set in the CSS: p { text-align:justify; } But the text still comes 
out ragged right...

Re: Justify text in CFDOCUMENT?

2012-09-25 Thread Andy Allan

This is an outstanding bug going back to 2005 when CF7 came out.

The underlying engine that provides cfdocument doesn't support it and
Adobe have confirmed numerous times they can't fix it because of the
underlying engine.

Basically, they need to rewrite it.

So your options for now are:

1. Live with it (meh)
2. Use iText.

 2. Use iText.

iText can a PITA for complex documents. I found it to be *much* less labor
intensive to use a RTF document and add/edit content to the text file and
converting it to a PDF using oolib  http://oolib.riaforge.org/

I have been able to get much nicer formatting with that method compared to

 Interesting.

 Are there any writeups on doing that kind of thing?

 iText can a PITA for complex documents. I found it to be *much* less
 labor
 intensive to use a RTF document and add/edit content to the text file and
 converting it to a PDF using oolib  http://oolib.riaforge.org/

 I have been able to get much nicer formatting with that method compared
 to
 CFDocument.

 This is an outstanding bug going back to 2005 when CF7 came out.

 The underlying engine that provides cfdocument doesn't support it and
 Adobe have confirmed numerous times they can't fix it because of the
 underlying engine.

 Basically, they need to rewrite it.

 So your options for now are:

 1. Live with it (meh)
 2. Use iText.

 I'm creating HTML with CF and then converting it to a PDF with
 CFDOCUMENT.
 It doesn't seem to support justifying text. Is there a way to make it
 do
 so?
 I've set in the CSS: p { text-align:justify; } But the text still comes
 out ragged right...

 I have never worked with Locale before, but we have a client in Malaysia that

 CF8 for supported Locale's and don't see 1 for Malaysia.

what version of java is your server running? if i remember, ms_MY wasn't part 
of 
core java until version 6. sorry but i don't recall what version of java cf8 
supports.

and FYI, you can just feed in the core java locale identifiers (en_US, th_TH, 
etc.) in place of those silly cf5 locale names. if you want to see what locales 
are actually supported, dump out server.ColdFusion.SupportedLocales (and you 
should notice that having those cf5 locale names actually causes locales to be 
duplicated in that list).

oops, i missed to an opportunity to plug ICU4J ;-) if you can't upgrade java or 
cf, you can always use the ICU4J library. it's ULocale class does have 
resources 
for ms_MY.

and i still *really* wish ICU4J was baked into cf.

Man I cannot believe it... I was going to recommend that first :)  I think CF8 
uses 1.4, btw.

after actually bothering to look:

it seems cf8 is certified to run JDK 1.6.0_24.
