Sounds like a job for javascript. Matthew Small -----Original Message----- From: Ken [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2005 1:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: A timeout alert
Hi. I am working on a forum application. There is a fixed time to respond to each posting. I want the user responding to a posting to get an alert, even if he is typing at the last minute, saying: "Sorry, this posting has reached its expiration time, you are being taken to the home page now." There's a db field that holds the expiration time for each posting. That's what we will compare the current time to. Or maybe start a timer as soon as the user comes to the page, and display an alert at the end of the timer. Any ideas how to do this in CF? Code examples will help. Thanks, Ken ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:221356 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
