Re: ergonomics
I use a Natural Keyboard and i have 2 long gel strips that cover the whole base of the desk so when i'm on the keyboard or mouse my wrists get support. I try to keep all primary items on my desk within reach without having to bend forward. And then i make sure to stop every hour and stretch and get up and walk for a bit.

Sending a list into a Stored Proc
Ok having a brain fart. Whats the best way to send 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 into a SP, its a VARCHAR on the CFPROCPARAM and in the SP as well but it keeps saying its an int which it isnt.

Subject: Idea Incubator Article : CFMX TinyMUSH 4 integration
So, in my spare time I've been working on a fun little project. I play on
MUSHes (sort of like a MUD only more for RolePlay than hack and slash) a
lot and I've always wanted to do a web character generator. My vision on
how this works is basically that I have 2 databases. One that CFMX
interfaces with (secure) and the other that the mush interfaces with
(insecure), something like this:
CFMX - Secure db - Insecure db - TinyMUSH 3.0 patchlevel 4#1
TinyMUSH has the ability to interface with MySQL, but because you can't
specify a password for the mush to log into mysql with, I've decided that
this is a 'hostile' zone because of that. Which is why I call it an
insecure database. So, basically all the stats of a character will be
placed into the secure db. The insecure db will be quick snapshots or a
transportation layer for the mush to interface with.
I still had one problem though. The data will remain in the transportation
layer until something kicks off within the MUSH itself. How else would
that
data get sucked into the game? I kept thinking about it and ... well, I
had
two options. One, every time staff made a change to a character on the
web,
they'd have to type a command (like +synch) on the actual game. That's
stupid and tedious. I needed a robot or something to interface with the
mush.
I called upon one of my best friends in Atlanta, Don Stauffer (goes by the
old Mush name of Hyperion) who works for
http://www.air2web.com/air2web.com. Great guy, loves java stuff. Came
from a 'C' background (self taught) and he taught himself java because the
demands were high for it. He now writes java api's for wireless protocols
for air2web.com. I asked Don if he could make me a java api that would
allow me to use CFMX to telnet into the mush, kick off a few commands and
logoff. He finished it today and gave me a robot.jar file. This thing is
*great*. I was able to put the jar file into my
CfusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib directory, hiccup the server and ...
write:
cfobject type=java name=newRobot class=com.don.robot.Robot
action=create
cfscript
myRobot = newRobot.getInstance();
myRobot.login(myserver_name,port,'Javabot',bot_password);
myRobot.command('page todd=Booya');
myRobot.command('page todd=Tired of this crap, logging off..');
myRobot.logoff();
/cfscript
The in game results:
JavaBot has connected.
JavaBot pages: Booya
JavaBot pages: Tired of this crap, logging off..
JavaBot has disconnected.
Is this not cool or what?! :) :) Now, ColdFusion MX can seamlessly handle
the web chargen of the game and handle the synchronization of actual game
data within the game (as well as recieve feedback on whether something was
successful or not!). In fact, because of how much I can do with the
javabot api, I'm beginning to wonder if I need the insecure database at
all.. I can just have the JavaBot set all the game attributes on the
player
object as needed. We'll see...
I realize that a lot of people are wanting to learn flash for remoting,
etc. However, if you get a chance to explore with ColdFusion MX and Java.
Do it. It's worth every penny to explore and have fun with the
possibilities of using CFMX and Java together. You can use java to
enhance
/ extend your CFMX experience. Even if it's for something stupid and
trivial as a game. :)
Hope this inspires someone to have fun... =)

Re: mySQL equivalent of MS Access Money fieldtype?
did you try the float type - Original Message - From: Rick Faircloth [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2002 1:09 PM Subject: RE: mySQL equivalent of MS Access Money fieldtype? I'm running into some of the very problems you mention. I tried Decimal as the field type, but 100.5 gets rounded up to 101.00...not good. I tried Integer, but when, for example, 100.50 gets entered into a formfield, then inserted into the db, it gets truncated to 100. How do I set up Integer to retain 2 decimal places? Also, I'm trying to setup the mySQL db fieldtype and CF processing such that if a user inputs $100.50, which is not a number, mySQL won't reject it. I tried setting up the CF input line with various combinations of functions, such as: cfqueryparam cfsqltype=CF_SQL_INTEGER Value=#LSCurrentFormat(LSParseNumber(Form.UCPaymentAmount))# but I haven't been able to find the right combo to allow users to input either 100.50, 100.5, or $100.50 and still get the right number into the db without rounding or truncating and back out for display on the CF page.

Re: Mass email marketing
Spam makes money ;) Just do it legally and honor removes and don't try to spoof and you will stay within the law. Of course when you start doing any bulk email you get the antispam fanatics into a fuss. But on the general Mass Email Marketing is very productive and can generate alot of money at very low cost. I can send you some server setup recommendations if you want as to how to send the most for the least amount of time or bandwidth and how to keep all messages customized and easily track email addresses so you can remove people even whent hey are behind spamcop or such or even to work the message enough to get through 99% of spam filters. But in all reality if you're not being a jerk and are actually sending real offers to real people and you honor removes and dont flood peoples mail servers too much (like with hotmail send every 4 hours, same with yahoo) you should be fine. And you might want to switch your domain name you will mail the offers from to something like registerfly.com which is mass email friendly.

MM has a long history of abandoning products. Everyone seems to act like CF is invincible, yet it was sold by Allaire a little over a year ago. The sad fact of the matter is that MS is more trustworthy than MM, when it comes to secure futures for its developers. I mean, C# could be the biggest failure of all time, but MS would ride it out and C# developers would have jobs for a long time to come. JSP is stable, because it's not a company centric language. It's the CF developers who are up late at night wondering what the future holds. Do you think MM will keep CF around if it starts to tank? Phat chance.

Yes, other people may have seen this problem, but so far, as far as I can tell, the problem seems like CF Dies under load. Well, we ran CFMX under load, for *weeks* before we shipped it. I know; I had to help out with it. We have supplied a clearly defined avenue to getting your issues heard. The avenue is supported and maintained by Macromedia (ie: not a 3rd party mailing list, or a website) and this is the most efficient method of issue resolution we have at the moment.

ultradev STUDIO =)
For the love of god dont make Ultradev to be STUDIO all in one, i like CF STUDIO because it lets you have the flat text based editing and you can right click on any tag and edit it..then ultradev is great for GRAPHIC development, though ultradev does butcher some CF code if you drag and drop sometimes. I think that is due to the fact that Ultradev is tryign to be an END all it does ASP, JSP, PHP CF =) since you guys own the company now maybe making UD focus more on CF first makign it perfect and then get it to run all the other program next. But if you can get Ultradev to integrate EVERYTHIGN about CF STUDIO (except the memory hogging, and the continous crashing) I think it would be a great product, but you might want to do what allaire did, they had HOMESITE, then to make CF STUDIO they just took HOMESITE and added some CF stuff to it and walla!.. Maybe take UD and add a CF MODE to it that opens a window like CF STUDIO to do text based working?? I don tknow just dont forget about the CF RDS integration i hate FTPing =) Thx thats my 2 cents i know you guys will get it right Bill Wheatley Director of Development Allaire Certified ColdFusion Developer AEPS INC Allaire ColdFusion Consulting Partner www.aeps.com www.aeps2000.com 954-472-6684 X303 ICQ: 417645 ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: BANNER AD PROGRAM
AMEN i hear you it is a piece of shit program =) that i trully have learned to dispise (sp) Would you think i could get around the bottleneck on the local side, becuase the ad server is a screamer, as well as both boxes are on our local network, so i dont think transfer problems could be a problem, and if needed we could do 1 ad box per domain. We currently use CFHTTP's to grab the central ad ads and we've had no problem with it at all EXCEPt for it pulling up default ads all the time =), no way to SET ads to a specific number of HIts per month, unless you want to set the ads to run 1 month only and then redo that EVERY month. I really think it was a piece of garage, we're talking with double click now about possibly getting there software licensed to use for us internally outside of there network (because they are not much better IMHO). But i really want something in CF that i can get my hands on and do what i want it and need it to do =) Thanks!

First, you're forced to lock CFHTTP until you've output the variable cfhttp.filecontent. Secondly, each page that CF returns doesn't get passed on to the web server until it's been completely rendered by CF. So if you have a lot of CF pages waiting on that single threaded CFHTTP that's pulling banners, it could become an enormous bottleneck. More so if you've got banner ads on every page of a busy site or family of sites. BTW, we're also using CentralAd. What a piece of unsupported garbage. If you're doing remote ad calls (ala doubleclick) the clickthroughs often end up going to the wrong place, or else the server is incapable of figuring it out at all and redirects to the 'default' ad's URL. It's a really problem when users are going through proxies and the like. I suspect as many as 10-20% of clickthroughs are being misdirected. When it gets busy, we also have a problem with their CGI's hanging on the ad server and having to be manually killed off to free up memory and CPU cycles.
