Re: Radio Button
Hey Steven, If the form will be posted and do some sort of server-side error checking (and re-shown with errors if any are found) then my method (back a few posts) is the one to go with. This is because my method initializes the var for the radio button which then passes it's new or unchanged value into the error checking process (when form is posted). If errors are found the form can be re-displayed with the users input and a list of errors. By using the looping/iif/de method the radio buttons will always revert to the value in the database as opposed to the value selected by the user after the initial display of the form. my 2 cents ;-) Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

Re: Fax into database
There are ways of doing this, but the OCR software would have to be damn good. The fax is turned into a TIFF image (special multi page fax TIFF) which can then be OCR'd...parsed...and inserted into the DB. The downside of course is that the OCR may not work right which could cause your parsing script to failblah blah blah If you are only grabbing a small nugget of info off the faxed page, you could have some unique identifying characters around the text you want to parse outthat would help with finding it (no garuntees as to the final OCR'd text) HTH Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

The value that it returns is NULL which causes the rest of the SQL statement to return NULL as a result even if the other columns contain at least one #ID# in the BNID column.

Re: Fusebox - opinions?
Hey all, Lets see I started doing Fusebox before there was a Fusebox and quickly dropped it. It seemed to produce an extremely messy control document (I guess it's always index.cfm nowadays?). About a year or 2 after it really started to spread throughout the CF community I joined a few Fusebox lists and lurked for a bit. I was shocked to find all the wasted effort writing custom tags and workarounds just to use the method!! I say if you write an application in a logical fashion and comment everything, then any other developer can work on it just as easily as you can. The bonus is you can write it faster than in Fusebox. my 2 cents...flame away ;-) Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

FB is great on large scale apps, this allows several developers to have production on a single site and allows for specialty type of production. IE: the DBA can work on queries, while the CF programmer works on the front end of things etc. 2. Code reuse..With the FB methodology, queries can be more like stored procedures, where the front end and backend remain somewhat seperate from eachother. This allows for the front end to be modified without a hitch. Cons 1. Not the greatest thing for smaller applications, unless you are an unorganized person. You can probably code faster without it if you are making a small app. 2. Jumping back and forth between all the folders that is used to keep track of your application. IE: _dsp, _act, _scripts, _css, _qry, _images etc etc. If you are doing the site by yourself, this can become tiresome. First you have to look at your index.cfm to see what query you were using on a particular page and then go to the _qry folder to find the file All said, I think the pros out weight the cons and would suggest it to pretty much anyone who is developing large apps and has a team of developers working on a site. The book(fusebox methodologies and techniques) is a so so reader, some things are over emphasised and not really to the meat of the matter. It is a good way to learn the basics, and it did help me to understand what FB could do for me. The downloadable e-book is well woth the $$, but would not suggest paying for the actual book.

Re: CF Stylesheets output formatting
I'd use the semi colon as a delimiter in a list and insert an ASCII carriage
return after each semi colon

Subject: CF Stylesheets output formatting
Hi all,
I'm making a dynamic style sheet control panel to allow the administrator
of
my site make changes to the style definitions of my site. My question is
this:
Besides using just using cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=Yes to output
just
the styles, is there a way to have the output (ie. the linked stylesheet)
page have formatting without using HTML elements like breaktags? I want to
avoid having any HTML in the actual style sheet which is called
styles.cfm,
but I want to have a certain degree of formating for my own reference.
At the moment, the output looks like this:
Body { color : 00; font-family :
Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular; font-size : 12px;
font-weight
: Normal; font-style : Normal; text-decoration : None; }
But I would prefer it to look like this:
Body {
color : 00;
font-family : Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular;
font-size : 12px;
font-weight : Normal;
font-style : Normal;
text decoration : None;
}
Does anyone know of a tag/method of making the cartridge returns in the
actual script show up in the output without resorting to p or br tags?
Thanks in advance,
Benjamin Falloon

Re: CFMODULE and odd display behavior
in this particular tag it's the :caller scope. That said it does the same thing with ALL cfmodule calls that display something (i.e. a link). Yes I've checked for duplicate tags...the answer is no.

Re: OT: SPAM lists?
Hey All, cf_rant I just had an mazingly frustrating experiences with one of the blackhole database maintainers (ordb.org). These folks think they are doing favours by helping ISP's to block mail server IPs that are running open relays (allow spammers to send using that mail server), but their implementation SUCKS! The Scenario: I'm running a development box with IMS as a mail server (and hosting a client's domain during development). After about 8 months with no mail issues whatsoever I receive a bunch of spam test messages from ORDB.org and then get a message saying that my mai lever was an open relay and had been added to their database. This database is provided to ISPs so they can block ALL mail coming from the IP addresses in it. SOOOOO ORDB thinks it's best to just add my IP with NO warning and no chance to fix the issue before getting blacklisted. Well that bit of strong arming shut down my mail server and my client couldn't send any mail (BTW my logs show that no spam EVER went through the system). You then have to try and fix the problem (not easy in IMS) and submit your IP for re-testing (which they say takes 5-10 hours...reality was 12 plus hrs). If you haven't closed the relay then you have to try again (which I had to do). My client was without e-mail for over 2 days. I had to get rid of IMS and found a GREAT free mail servr that allows SMTP authentication (Argo Soft...get it). My communications with ORDB were less than fruitful. They didn't care that my mail service was interrupted and said they don't give you a warning because then more spam would get through (which there was none). So these guys would rather innocent people lose their mail service instead of allowing a few more spams through...geesh. To top it off they hide behind the well it;s the ISPs that block you..we just provide them with the database of IPs. Which transaltes to He didn't have to use the gun I handed him!! Well their predecesor ORBS had 2 legal injunctions against them and had to shut down. I'm sure if they continue to stop valid mail service that someone with the time and money will go after them too...awww what a shame *insert eveil grin here* /cf_rant Thanks for listening...and get ArgoSoft's mail serversuper easy to use and install Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

Re: OT: SPAM lists?
It's the fact that the legit folks get nailed as well. Listen..we all agree that spam is evil...we all agree that mail servers should not be open.BUT is it so bad to give the folks running the server a chance to fix it first?? My issue is that once found to be open it is incredibly difficult to get off the blacklist. This means that legit folks can be without mail for a long time. Even if ORDB continues to aid in stopping legit mail, they could at least invest in some decent hardware and bandwidth. I mean 5-10 hours to test a mail server is so ridiculous it's not funny. If they are going to keep it up then the test should be avble to be performed in a matter of minutes and not hours.

Re: OT: SPAM lists?
Well Len thanks for calling me lazy and incompetent. Until I got blacklisted I did not know about open relays. So how does that put me in either category?

I'm the first to admit that my face was red when I found out that the situation existed and I dropped everything else I was doing and fixed it immeadiately.

Re: Disconnecting Data Sources for Upload?
This is a bit of a bubblegum solution, but you can have your client run a lock killing query just prior to upload. Just setup a quesry that they can navigate to in their browser (I call it qLockKiller.cfm). The SQL should be something like SELECT something FROM nothing. That will cause a db error and unlock Access (remove the .ldb file). Sometimes the query needs to be run afew times. I'd suggest doing this at non-peak times as somebody could hit the db again in the time it takes to fire up the FTP and send up the db. All that said...clients should not mess with uploading databases over top live ones...transaction will inevitably happen between the download and upload and thus data will be lost. Best solution is to set CF admin to only allow SELECT statements durring this process so no data can be altered. Of course this requires access to CF admin which is not always easy if hosted in a shared environment.

I see they are still sitting in the submission queue. Why does it take two weeks to get to it guys? If anyone needs the UDF's sooner, I can dig them out of the code I'm using at www.morervs.com. Look at http://www.morervs.com/fb3/index.cfm?fuseaction=search.home and try the distance search. I think that's the kind of thing you're after. I haven't seen how others do this but my solution was based on the fact that one degree of latitude is always equal to 60 nautical miles. You take the distance for the radius of the search and convert it to nautical miles. Then add that many degrees in a box around the starting point. If my search was 138 statute miles (about 120 Nautical miles), the 120 nautical miles is 2 degrees of arc at the earth's surface (Assuming the earth is a perfect sphere). Do an SQL query to filter out the vast majority of records that fall outside of the box surrounding your origin... Something like Select * From myzipcodedata Where lat between (targetlat-dist/(60*1.15)) and (targetlat+dist/(60*1.15)) AND lon between (targetlon-dist/(60*1.15)) and (targetlon+dist/(60*1.15)) This leaves you with a rectangle that's CLOSE to a radius search. All that's left to do is to loop through these records and actually calculate the distance and throw out the ones that exceed your search distance. One degree of longitude is only equal to 60 NM at the equator. The farther North you go, the smaller the distance gets until you get to the poles where it's zero. Your initial box to filter records out is actually somewhat larger than your search distance but it will never be smaller than your search distance.

Re: IP Address Locator
It is incredibly easy to reverse a charge. If you call a cc company and tell them that the charge trying to be reveresed is something you say you didn't buy, they will reverse the charge with almost no questions (not speaking from experience...but from info from bankers). The deal is that cc companies don't care and don't want to deal with the huge battle that could come from getting entangled between the merchant and the customer.

CFQUERYPARAM dbname attribute
Hey All, The CF docs seem to be lacking an explanation of the dbname attribute for CFQUERYPARAM. Now the obvious is that it is for naming the database (wow I amaze myself sometimes). That said, doesn't the datasource take care of this? is there a benefit to using the attribute? is it just a typo in the docs? why is the sky blue? ;-) TIA Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

Visual Equation Building
Hey All, OK I'll do my bets to explain what I'm trying to accomplish: I want to build a tool that allows the user to visually build an equation. The building blocks for the equation are essentially fields in a database. I'd like to display these building blocks in a list and give the user the ability to pass them into a workspace on the page that will hold the equation. Ideally I'd like to allow the user to drag and drop the building blocks into the workspace, but I suppose passing them via a link and some JavaScript would suffice. I also need to give the user a way of passing operators (+,-,*,/,[,]) to the workspace to help build the equation. Another hook is that I need to ultimately store the IDs of the records of the building blocks when I store the finished equation. I have some ideas, but I thought before I head down those paths, I'd see if anyone else had any input.

Behind the scenes you can track the IDs in a variable and put it in a database when the user is done (maybe a button to click). Does that sound like what you are looking for?

Re: suggestion on complicated form design.
How about simply allowing them to add name/age/sex combos 1 at a time until they are done (like adding items to an invoice).

Hello cf-talk, I'm about to build a fairly complicated form. It will require a getting a list of names, and the age and sex of each person. I will need to enforce the age and sex requirement of each name listed. Option 1. Build a form with lots many fields for name, age and sex. Once submitted, check for a value in the name field, then check for a value in the age and sex field. If there is a value in a name field, and no age or sex fields, give them the form back to fix. This sounds like a ton of work. Will need up to 12 names on the form. Option2. Ask how many names they will give, then provide a dynamic form with exactly the number of fields they need. Enforce everything. Anyother suggestions? This sounds like a real nightmare. Any tips or suggestions before I dive into this would be most appreciated!

Re: CFLOOP and CFOUTPUT
This one came through the list abouyt a month ago, so you may want to check the archives. The basic result was that CFLOOP is the way to go. Personally I wrap my entire page in CFOUTPUT tags and always use CFLOOP to output queries etc. IMHO it makes the code easier to read becaue I don't have to open and close CFOUTPUT tags everytime I want to output a query or variable. The potential downside to my method is that CF has to parse all the code inside my wrapping CFOUTPUTs. This issue was also discussed and I beleive the consensus was that the additional parsing time was minimal and acceptable (providing you don't have thousands of lines of code).

Re: OT: Advice and opinion on client who has a problem paying bills
Time to chime in ;-) I haven't read all the posts, but this seems to be a common problem (been there a few times). We recently put together an e-business development guide (http://www.electricedgesystems.com/guide.cfm?pg=guide) to hand to potential new clients. It answers a lot of their technical question AND covers how the development process will and should proceed (also focuses those clients that walk in and want a websiteand thenhehe). It's that part that may help lay the groundwork for a lot of folks out there that run into the how should I handle this client stuff. All I can say is I've been burned in a few different ways and now I make people sign NDAs, get a deposit up front, always do a system requirements and technical design doc, and live by change request forms ;-) HTH Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

And I normally bid the work so that the first 50% covers my costs. So (almost inevitably) as the second half payment drags on, I don't care so much. If you manage expectations, and clearly define maintenance vs enhancement work, clients usually pay off in the end. And the few that don't typically treat all their vendors that way.

Almost every client over the years has not blinked at a retainer fee to start the work.

In addition: - Many times these kind of things are what I call the mismatch of expectations and is not necessarily implies that any of the parties is a 'bad guy'. Therefore, a 'contract' is always a must. I like writing the scope of work together with the client: He knows what he wants, I know what can be done. We (developers) hate to do this kind of work, but if you are an independent consultant, it's a must. I usually charge hourly rate for writing up specs, even if I go for a fixed bid. The reason is, that I cannot give a fix price, before the spec is cast in stone, but I know, that a detailed spec is going to take time, otherwise it's useless. - I also strongly advocate to maintain a 'retainer' fee. And while some clients are not crazy about it, you can explain them why it is necessary. If a client plainly rejects the retainer idea, it's my experience, that they may not plan to keep the balance up-to-date. So I usually don't deal with them. Sorry, if some of this was OT, but felt like I can share some of the things I learned during the 25+ years of consulting.

Re: Terms+Conditions for packaged web app
I'd be sure to be paid well for the development because I have seen MANY of these types of deals tank. The developer gives the client a cut rate on initial development because they think that all the sign-ups will come after and they make their extra $ setting up the template sites. The problem is that those sign-ups never happen (or to a much lesser degree than expected). So just be aware that all may not be as rosy as it seems. As far as protecting your code from being copied and deployed elsewhere without your knowledge The easiest way is to not turn over the code. Being that you would be the only folks touching the backend to create these template sites...why not be the only ones with FTP access to the code on the live server ;-) I don't have any contracts specific to this situation...sorry Good Luck Cheers Bryan Stevenson VP Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.

We're looking at something that can have up to 10 pages, a limit to the amount of text and images that can be uploaded, modular design, a customisable contact form, etc. Your basic consultant/small company brochure/contact site that's completely controlled from a CF backend. The deal is, we get a one-off fee for developing it, then get a nominal fee for throwing each one together as the orders come through. Throwing each one together will hopefully take next to no time, if we build the template in a nice modular, adaptable fashion. Obviously we want to protect ourselves against this handy little app being carried off and used all over the place without our knowing about it or being paid. We'll be doing some stuff that will prevent non-coders from being able to steal it, but we want some legal protection (for what it's worth) just in case.
