Getting the date next (Saturday)
I have a schedule function, where i need to display the date and time of hte next occurance of an event, that is scheduled every dayofweek at time for example, one event is every Saturday (day='7') at midnight. Another event is every Sunday (day=1') at 9pm. How can i calculate the date of the next occurrence of these events so I can display it as : coming up at time on date? -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion Enterprise, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:357559 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

cflocation mystery
Hi Folks I have a basic .html site that I have converted to a coldfusion site. since there are many old .html links out there I added the following to my notFound.cfm file: cfif notFoundUrl contains .html cfset newUrl=http://www.mydomain.com; replace(notFoundUrl,.html,.cfm) cfif fileExists(newUrl) is yes cflocation url=#newUrl# cfelse cflocation url=http://www.mydomain.com; /cfif /cfif Works fine if the file exists but throws an error if the file doesn't exist rather than redirecting. Also which log file would have the error in it as I can't find the error in any of the logs What am I missing?

Re: cflocation mystery
It's no mystery, that's the correct response. Trap the 404 error for html files at the web server and handle the cf side through either site wide or per application error handling.

Re: cflocation mystery
you firstly are trying to use fileExists on a URL, so it will always fail, fileExists requires an absolute path on the server see here: https://learn.adobe.com/wiki/display/coldfusionen/fileexists secondly an html page will never reach coldfusion, because it is an html page, so cfml code will never run. You need to setup a 404 handler on the web server or use URL rewriting.

Re: cflocation mystery
We don't know what's on the variable, and it's working through the first half of the condition it sounds like. Can you cflocate to the tld or do you require a filename?

Re: cflocation mystery- solved
You should also be retiring a 301 status code to the client. This makes a difference for SEO purposes. In CF7 or before you would need to use the cfheader tag. CF8 and on, you can add the status code attribute to the cflocation tag.
