[OT] disabling embedded slides in Windows Media
Hi folks, and apologies for veering out of CF-Land (but I'm at the 11th hour and about ready to pull my hair out!). What we have is a series of ASF files acting as a mini-presentation. The client encoded them originally for a framed presentation screen... but where the movies are shown now is not a frameset. Therefore, the slides associated with the movie are popping up in a new window... most disconcerting! I'm told we have somehow fixed this in IE, but Netscape still proves to be a problem. What I'm getting at is: Is there a way within our object/embed declarations to force Media Player to discard slide-display events? If you have any suggestions, please let me know, preferably off-list (because I'd feel bad for that much clutter on the list ;) ). Thanks!

[WAY OT] Media Player/Netscape wackiness
Hi all, and apologies for being so off-topic... but I've got a pretty tight deadline and don't know where else to turn. We have a client that wishes, for some reason, to have an .ASF file embedded on their front page. The current code allows a control-less display in IE, but no matter how much I tweak the EMBED, the Netscape version still shows the start/stop control. Does anyone have experience with Windows Media Player/Netscape interaction (and wouldn't mind helping me)?

Re: DELPHI - where does it fit in the scheme of things?
I remember that Nick Bradbury's original releases of Homesite (before HS was bought by Allaire, which begat CFStudio...) was a Delphi app. It would stand to reason, then, that the current releases at least have some Delphi floating around in them. And wasn't there a known bug with how Delphi handled Z-Order that caused CFStudio/HS that caused it not to "pop forward" on window focus?

Hi, I just used this and suddenly realized that, yes! all the images are
displaying horizontally from the query output, but unfortunately, they are
not breaking at the end of the table, but extending the table way off to

then staring the new row?

Initialise your counter to 0.
Output your TR, with the IIF statement determining the row colour (like your

Set counter equal to counter = 1.

Subject: Alternating TR colors
Lets say I wanted the background color of each row in a table to be
different colors. I found this code:
COLOR=###IIF(QueryName.currentrecord MOD 2, DE ('E9E7CF'), DE ('FFA768'))#
But I'm not looping through a query, I'm just manaully writing table rows,
BUT, some of the rows may not always be displayed, so I can't just hardcode
the color values, because then you'd have two rows right after each other
that are the same color.
In perl I would just write a function that increments a counter and returns
the new result. Like:
COLOR=###IIF(MyIncrementFunc(counter) MOD 2, DE ('E9E7CF'), DE ('FFA768'))#
How can I accomplish this in ColdFusion?
Thanks,

Subject: IsNumeric Function
Hey Guys/Gurls:
I am trying to do some server side validation for a phone number, but I am
running into an odd problem. I split the phone number entry form into three
textboxes the first one for area code (ie must be 3 numbers) and then the
two parts of the phone number (ie must be 3 numbers and then must be 4
numbers). I check to make sure the length of each textbox is correct and
then I try to check if they are numeric, however it will throw an error.
My code looks something like this:
cfif not IsNumeric("attributes.custPhone1") or not
IsNumeric("attributes.custPhone2") or not
IsNumeric("attributes.custPhone3")
cfset attributes.error = attributes.error "Please enter a valid
phone number.br"
/cfif
The strange part is that when I take out the not IsNumeric() statements for
the first two form variables it works fine. Ideas???
-Greg

Re: Another debate
Well, the two are really different critters. It could be said that PHP is more secure since it is open source, therefore flaws can, in theory, be discovered (and hopefully patched) quicker. As for other discussion along the lines of "CF is a better platform because it's easier to write in", it really depends on your style of programming. If you're most comfortable dealing with logical pseudo-extensions to an HTML-style programming system, of course CF is for you. It's tag-based to ease the transition between static HTML and dynamically-generated templates. PHP, OTOH, is very reminiscent of Perl, so if your department is strong in Perl you'll love PHP. The down side of PHP is its fairly non-existant error handling capabilities and lack of DB abstraction. You will have to be familiar with different function sets to use different DBs. If you're a non-programmer, it is a bit trickier to learn, since you'll have to work with creating file pointers and whatnot on occasion. And PHP doesn't include Verity or any other nifty toys, so you're on your own. On the plus side, PHP currently supports user-defined functions, which makes for very structured, elegant code. I haven't tried out PHP's session support, however, so I can't comment on that. Chances are, though, that CF has a better implementation, though, simply because CF has had session support longer. Also, what web server/OS are you running? That's also a big part of the picture, and arguably more important than the application server you're using.

highlighting strings, with a twist.
Hi all, I know this has been discussed previously, but I've got a question with a little quirk in it. I know there are ways to highlight a string, and basically you REReplace the string with a copy of itself wrapped in a highlighting font tag (or span, or what have you). The problem is this: What if the string contains HTML and the highlighter mangles the HTML output? Is there a smart way for the regexp to do the highlighting but skip over the insides of an HTML tag? In other words, it would be okay to highlight the label portion of an A tag, but not touch the HREF attribute. Any assistance would be very appreciated! And if you know a custom tag that does this, please pass it on my way.

If the desired filename already exists on the server, I need to let the user know, and rename the file accordingly. What's the easiest and most efficent way to handle this? Do they have to be names correctly on the server, or just when they are downloaded back to the client again? There are different filename two parameters which would help you do that. File.ServerFile is the unique name on the server, but File.ClientFile is the original name of the file before it was made unique. You can always store BOTH these names in the DB so that you can preserve the filename in listings and such in the application. If a file is downloaded out of the app, you can also apply the original name back again to fake out the users into thinking it was always named that on the server. If they actually need it to be named correctly on the server itself (boy that is picky), then you'll want to read up no the NAMECONFLICT="Error" attribute of the CFFILE tag. You should be able to use this along with CFTRY/CFCASE to handle the error and give the user some options on renaming it. -Cameron Cameron Childress ElliptIQ Inc. p.770.460.7277.232 f.770.460.0963 Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists or send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the body to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: cf error question...
I assume you mean the error messages with the diagnostic information in a
box (syntax error, ODBC error, etc.)? The way you can set a default
alternative for these admittedly ugly errors is to use the CFERROR tag in
your application.cfm. If that's too limiting for what you wanted to do, you
could use CFTRY/CFCATCH to trap individual errors per page and manipulate
them.

Re: count() or recordcount
Furthermore, count() is just that, a tally of the rows as a query column in and of itself. The RecordCount variable is an attribute of the query object. Returning a query object assumes that you wish to do something with it, other than count how many rows are returned. If you're just wishing to count the items with x criteria, your intent is closer to count() anyway. :) -- Jamie Keane Programmer SolutionMasters, Inc. 9111 Monroe Rd., Suite 100 Charlotte, NC 28270 www.solutionmasters.com 704.563.5559 x 228 Voice 704.849.9291 Fax -Original Message- From: Todd Ashworth [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, September 06, 2000 12:31 PM Subject: Re: count() or recordcount In a direct comparison, I would think count() would be since it's run on the SQL server.

Re: CF not letting go of database connection?
This works with Access (so I'm not sure if it'll work in your case), and it's a quick-and-dirty approach, so YMMV. Todd's idea is better in the long run, but if you absolutely must kill the lock on the DB *right now*, try this: Just make a bogus SELECT query (usually I pull from a table named 50 characters of gibberish). In Access it kills the lock on the DB, and it might help out in Sybase.

Do you mean that the database engine stays running even after the last connection has been closed? If so, go to your ODBC administrator in your control panel and open the properties for the DSN in question. Under the "Database" tab, you will have 2 checkboxes at the bottom. One is to automaticly start the database if it isn't running and the other is to shut down the database after the last disconnect. You will want to check the second one. Note that with this option checked, anytime the database is not being queried, the database engine will shut down. This means that it will have to restart every time a new query comes along, which adds about 1 second of overhead (YMMV).

Re: New and Worried (terminating a session)
You can specify a session variable's timeout in the CFAPPLICATION tag (in
fact, you MUST set it). Session variables can last as long as you want them
to, but bear in mind that they typically reside in memory, so be judicious
about their usage! As for terminating the session, you can use the
StructClear() function.

Subject: New and Worried (terminating a session)
Hi all,
This is proving to be an informative list! I have worked out a lot of
the cold fusion portion of my latest site. Session variables are still a
mystery. How do I turn off a session? In other words, if I leave the
website and come back in an hour, or next day, I want a fresh session.
Can this be done in applications.cfm with a timer/counter? I think I
read somewhere that a session can be terminated with javascript.
Earlier, someone posted the cold fusion script below. Will that
terminate my session after 30 minutes (or do I have to modify this code
somewhat?) Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW, what is the
philosphy of a "session"? Do customers expect their session to be
persistant over days?
Thanks!
Megan
I use this which deletes all client variables if they haven't been
accessed in 30 minutes:
CFIF not isDefined('client.initialize_session')
cfset client.initialize_session = now()
cfelse
cfset app_timeout = now() - createtimespan(0,0,30,0)
CFIF client.initialize_session GTE app_timeout
cfset client.initialize_session = now()
CFELSE
cfset clientlist = GetClientVariablesList()
cfloop index="i" list="#clientlist#"
cfset temp = DeleteClientVariable('#i#')
/cfloop
cfset client.initialize_session = now()

(OT) making fields readonly with JavaScript
Hi all, and I apologise for being off-topic, but this is driving me nuts! Is there a way to "disable" text field via JavaScript? I know of the READONLY attribute, and the client likes how that works, but in my research I was not able to come up with a way to access that attribute through JS. Any ideas?

Re: Javascript Question
Here's what I'd do.
Make the image an HREF pointing to "#", and calls a function when clicked.
Like so:
function doMyStuff()
{
document.image.src = "newimage.jpg";
document.form.submit();
}
I think this will work.

Subject: OT: Javascript Question
I can't remember where or the name of the javascript forum off of
cf-talk but I figured I may as well as my question and then have someone
tell me where to do. I have a form button that is an image. I put some
javascript in there so that when I click on it, it changes the image. What
I
want to do now is make it so that image is not clickable that way no one
can
keep clicking on submit. Anyone know how to do this, it can't be a href tag
becuase I have to pass form variables.

Subject: Re: What I want in CF (was: Learning ASP)
Cold Fusion is weak in these areas, but really you can do all these things
(or "emulate" them :-) ) using existing features.
(forgive my syntax - I'm writing this quickly)
Pick a standard variable name, like ReturnValue and only use it for
returning a value from a custom tag:
caller.ReturnValue = xxx
Or use the tag's name as a structure:
If NOT IsDefine("MyTagName") {
MyTagName = StructNew()
}
MyTagName.Return = "some data"
Static variables: How static do you want them? :-) Cold Fusion has extra
"scopes" that wouldn't make sense in a standard programming language like
C++ where the application all runs at once. In Cold Fusion you might want
static variables that retain their value (1) for the entire Application, (2)
for the page request (there are more you could define if you tried hard).
Pick a standard word, for example "static" and keep them under Application
and Request. Use a hash of the module name:
In Application.cfm:
If NOT IsDefined('Request.Static')
Request.Static = StructNew()
In module: MyTagName:
Request.Static["MyTagName"] = StructNew()
Request.MyTagName.ThisStaticVar = "some data";
This is now a static variable that will retain it's value for the duration
of this page request through all files and multiple calls to this tag. It is
only "private" within the tag because you make it so with the naming
convention. The same thing can be done under the Application scope (scopes
are structures).
Now the *REAL* problem with Cold Fusion is there is no ability to define a
macro, function, or subroutine to "hide" these details so these kinds of
things are very wordy which encourages mistakes when you have to specify
them a hundred times.

My biggest complaint with the language is the lack of user-defined
functions. I know that custom tags are sorta a work-around, but sometimes
a
function just needs to return a value, not just assign a value back to the
calling template. Also, there's no way (that I know of at least) to pass
values by reference, or declare static variables within the scope of a
custom tag. While PHP doesn't have the simplicity that CF has in terms of
database twiddling, and its error handling leaves a bit to be desired, it
does have support for user-defined functions that may contain variable
references and static variables, and that helps me out a lot.

Subject: Re: What I want in CF (was: Learning ASP)
Ok, my wish list now:
1) How about a way to determine whether a dimension exists in an array,
for
instance this works:
ArrayLen(ThisArray)
But if ThisArray were a 2 dimensional array and I needed to figure out the
length of something in dimension 2, using this
ArrayLen(ThisArray[DimensionOne]) breaks the page
Rather than having to go thru the excess overhead of trying to use a
counter, maybe extending Arraylen could help this? Or how about a
ArrayDimensionExists() function?
2) Extending CFHTTP (I think this is a BIG one)
3) Making Structures Multi-Dimensional, or is it possible to do structures
like:
Stuff.Things.MoreThings = ThisVariable
This has never worked with me, the best I could do would be Stuff.Things
I'm sure there are more headaches I've run into, but these are right off
the
top of my head. What else can everyone think of?

Re: CFLOCK datasource var?
Yeah, but the "Variables" scope isn't persistent. Each time a page loads it
will unset itself. It would be better IMHO to just do a plain vanilla
CFSET.

Subject: Re: CFLOCK datasource var?
You shouldn't need to use a Session variable for your DSN .. especially if
you are going to be setting it over and over in your Application.cfm. That
defeats the purpose of having a Session variable anyway. You could get by
with another scope .. say Variables.ds, or something. That way, you
wouldn't have to worry about locking at all.

Re: What I want in CF (was: Learning ASP)
My biggest complaint with the language is the lack of user-defined functions. I know that custom tags are sorta a work-around, but sometimes a function just needs to return a value, not just assign a value back to the calling template. Also, there's no way (that I know of at least) to pass values by reference, or declare static variables within the scope of a custom tag. While PHP doesn't have the simplicity that CF has in terms of database twiddling, and its error handling leaves a bit to be desired, it does have support for user-defined functions that may contain variable references and static variables, and that helps me out a lot. -- Jamie Keane Programmer SolutionMasters, Inc. 9111 Monroe Rd., Suite 100 Charlotte, NC 28270 www.solutionmasters.com 704.563.5559 x 228 Voice 704.849.9291 Fax -Original Message- From: Gregory Harris [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Monday, August 28, 2000 2:30 PM Subject: Re: What I want in CF (was: Learning ASP) Ok, my wish list now: 1) How about a way to determine whether a dimension exists in an array, for instance this works: ArrayLen(ThisArray) But if ThisArray were a 2 dimensional array and I needed to figure out the length of something in dimension 2, using this ArrayLen(ThisArray[DimensionOne]) breaks the page Rather than having to go thru the excess overhead of trying to use a counter, maybe extending Arraylen could help this? Or how about a ArrayDimensionExists() function? 2) Extending CFHTTP (I think this is a BIG one) 3) Making Structures Multi-Dimensional, or is it possible to do structures like: Stuff.Things.MoreThings = ThisVariable This has never worked with me, the best I could do would be Stuff.Things I'm sure there are more headaches I've run into, but these are right off the top of my head. What else can everyone think of? Gregory Harris Los Angeles Information Technology Agency (ITA) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/28 11:11 AM Dave Watts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] I agree that the interfaces for SMTP, POP, HTTP, etc. need a lot of work. As for other stuff, I'm kind of curious. What basic functionality would you like to see? I can't really think of all that much that I'd like to see added. Personally, I've got a laundry list. :) However, off the top of my head, in no particular order (I mentioned most of these at The Con last year, and will do so again if I go this year): 1. Extend the CFX API to make it more useful. There are some things (like working with arrays, as Jeremy mentioned) that don't work or are hellishly hard to workaround. Some of us (very few, I know) *like* to work in C++ and *like* to optimize our stuff by putting it in machine code. 2. Fix the encryption. It's really *really* broken. 3. (or, in deference to or addition to #2) Support for "compiling" templates. We know that they already do this in memory (something akin to a p-code or bytecode type thing), but what I'd like to see is the ability to take that compiled chunk of memory and save it to a file. Python has this, as does Perl (in a limited sense). This would do two things for me: (a) It would mean that even though people could still "decompile" it, they'd still have to figure out var names, etc. (b) It would save the overhead of parsing the file every time. 4. Better regular expression engine. (Especially non-greedy matching.) 5. Better locking system. (This is a whine.) It's all fine and good to put the burden of the locking on the programmer (who has to go absolutely crazy on the CFLOCKs in a production system), but I'd really like to see something a bit better. I dunno how, but I know they have some pretty smart people who can surprise us. 6. Binary data support for variables. (Unicode?) Right now I can't (reliably) mess around with binary files. :( 7. Fix CFHTTP! Please! In the current implementation so much is broken it's not even funny! a. Not thread-safe (gah!) b. Can't use CFHTTPPARAM (and therefore cookies) without the POST method. (lame) c. Can't select encoding type (multipart/form-data doesn't work everywhere) - at least make it smart enough so that if no files are attached it doesn't use multipart! (exceedingly lame) d. The hack for port is *stupid*. If I want to access an arbitrary URL that could be on any port, I have to manually parse out the port number from the URL and put it in the PORT attribute and at the same time take it out of the URL string (it barfs otherwise!). (mired in a sweaty mass of lameness) 8. Fix PreserveSingleQuotes() - Right now it doesn't act like a real function. I can't do other things in it. That is, PreserveSingleQuotes(ListChangeDelims(list,"','")) is broken. (This is my most common use for it.) 9. Fix the standard structures (Form, Client, etc) to actually work like structures, so that I can enumerate them, delete from them, etc. Having to GetClientVariables() or get Form.FieldNames is just ann

I know this has been discussed before, but after looking through my email archives I don't see a direct answer to my question, so here it is: I'm scouring the web for word processor-ish content editor to embed into a content management system. I've found Activedit (www.cfdev.com) and eWebEditPro (www.ektron.com) so far. The two products look very similar with a few differences. You can get Activedit as open source, and I like that. What I'd really love to find though, is a nice *free* and full featured editor. I don't know that's going to happen, but I gotta try. I'm thinking that one may exist in PHP-land or something. In the event that there was a PHP (or ASP) version out there, all I really need is the client editor part. It should be trivial to change the small amount of code which exchanges the content with the DB. Anyone seen anything like this anywhere out there? -Cameron Cameron Childress McRae Communications p. 770-460-7277 x.232 f. 770-460-0963 --- --- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Your cfform needs a name. If you're just using HTML forms, you'll still
need a name for your form to access the form's contents.

I have a SQL problem. I know what information I want to retrieve from the DB, however, I do not know what precisely is the proper SQL syntax/function is in order to achieve it. The query as it is currently written in my CF template is: select wl.*,p.*,wlg.*,wb.*,wsnd.*,wrcvd.*,ws.* from wire_list wl left join P_officers p on wl.reg_by = p.off_id left join wire_status ws on wl.status_code = ws.status_code left join wire_log wlg on wl.wire_id = wlg.wire_id left join wire_senders wsnd on wl.sender_id = wsnd.sender_id left join wire_rcv_modes wrcvd on wl.rcv_mode = wrcvd.rcv_mode left join wire_banks wb on wl.bank_id = wb.bank_id where wl.wire_id = ( select max(right(wire_id,(len(wire_id)-2))) from wire_list) The error this code generates when I attempt to run it in SQL query analyzer: Server: Msg 536, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Invalid length parameter passed to the substring function. The content of the wire_id column looks like this format: ab999 and is of varchar datatype. I did not code these tables and I am in the middle of re-coding the entire site to be FuseBox compliant. I am trying to select the top (max) wire_id from the wire_list table, and display all records related to the returned value of the max function, but the result that areretrieved to date, with the code "Select max(wire_id)" and no WHERE clause, is ab99 when I know there are wire_id's in the table that have values of ab999, etc. It seems that SQL does not recognize that ab999 is the larger value when compared to ab99. The solution I am trying to apply with the code at the top of this email is to "get" the "number" part of the wire_id column, minus the two letters, and then use the max function on the remainder to get the ab999 wire_id i know is in the table. I looked through the SQL books online and it seems that SQL Sever does not have the ability to convert the varchar datatype (of the wire_id) column to the int data type that the max function seems to need in order to work properly. Does anyone know of a work around for this problem? Or am I going totally in the wrong direction with this logic? Any help/ideas/comments would be greatly apprecia
