RE: Inserting single quotes into SQL Server... Rarrararrr!!!
Hi Ken, As other people pointed out that Cf will escape the single quote in a simple variable. What I have had is when you use evaluate() function to evaluate a variable which contains a singlequote then CF will fail to escape it. I solved this problem by after the evaluation replacing the singlequote with two siglequotes (not a double,that's what the SQL statement wants to see). e.g. '#replaceNoCase(trim(evaluate(attributes.#i#_#toWho#)),','',ALL) #'. But the way you used to assign the result of the evaluation to a simple variable will also work here.

RE: SUMMARY: Request Scope Follow up Locking Questions
Hi Terry, It's a very nice summary, however, I have some thoughts after reading. A couple of notes here: if you do this, use something like cfset request.var=Duplicate(session.var) to transfer the variable. If you don't use Duplicate() - correct me if I'm wrong someone! - then request.var just becomes a 'pointer' to session.var, and session.var is still actually read when you refer later to request.var (rendering the whole business kind of redundant!). Duplicate() - which is only available in CF4.5+ - makes request.var a 'deep' copy of session.var, and then request.var technically has nothing to do with session.var except having the same value. And you said: This gets to what I was really looking for because I want to do some things with structures and session variables and how best to work with them... I think to use request.var this way you can only read the variable. Since the duplicate() function creates a new structure which copies the value of the seesion.var, any changes you made to it will not affect the actual session var(That's why you want a copy not a point). And the request.var will go out of scope after the current request, at next request you still make a copy to the actual session.var! This is just my thought if I am wrong please correct it.

I had spent the better part of 2 days studying my 4 CF Reference Books plus checking many online sources and still didn't really understand the concept but you guys cleared it up real quick. I'm sure others are interested in this so I thought I'd summarize what I learned. Below I have cutpasted some snippets from the thread and added a few of my own comments. 1. What exactly is the Request Scope? On 11/11/2001 at 3:59 AM gyrus wrote: The request scope lasts for the duration of each request. If you define request.var, every file (includes, custom tags, whatever) that's processed from then on in the course of that HTTP request has access to request.var. It seems kind of stupid now, but I couldn't understand why they were called Request variables. D! It's because they persist and are available to all templates and custom tags in a single HTTP request! On 11/11/2001 at 2:15 PM Peter Tilbrook wrote: I may be wrong but once set (eg: in the application.cfm file) if you do not provide a scope (eg: Application., Session., Client., they become variables in the REQUEST scope. You can then access them anywhere in a template without using a scope, eg: H, but how does that fit with custom tags?.. On 11/11/2001 at 5:07 PM Dave Watts wrote: It's identical to the local Variables scope in all ways except one: the Request scope is available both to a page and to any custom tags called by that page. It was added to make custom tag programming easier. If, for example, you wrote a recursive custom tag, it might have to write to the Caller scope to return its results, requiring a bit of tap-dancing around. Using the Request scope, you can have a variable that can be accessed easily from any custom tag, no matter how deep the recursion goes. Ok, that makes sense. And Peter wasn't quite correct. If a scope is not defined when a variable is set they are in the Variables Scope, not the Request Scope--the difference being that Request Variables are accessible (both Read Write, I presume) in Custom Tags as well as the Calling template. 2. How are Request Variables similar or different from Session or Application Variables? On 11/11/2001 at 5:07 PM Dave Watts wrote: They're not persistent memory variables, as are Session, Application or Server variables. Goes back to my new found understanding that Request variables only last for a particular HTTP Request. 3. When should/shouldn't Request Variables be used? On 11/11/2001 at 5:07 PM Dave Watts wrote: You can use them in place of the local Variables scope any time you like, really. The only time it wouldn't be appropriate to use them this way is when you want to create a variable that isn't accessible from both a calling page and its custom tags. They're very useful as constants, for example. You might have a bunch of variables which aren't going to change over the lifespan of the application, things like DSN names and file paths, for example. The Request scope is good for these since you may want to access those global variables from within custom tags. Of course, when you use the Request or Variables scopes for constants within Application.cfm, the variables will be created and destroyed again for each page request. There's a cost to that, but it's usually less than the cost of managing persistent memory variables within the
RE: Request Scope Questions
Which is not surprising. The issue was that Duplicate was not creating a true copy under certain situations. Instead it was creating pointers. This then would cause problems just like using app/session/server vars w/o locking, as Marianne describes below. I don't remember the exact situation where Duplicate failed. I believe it was different from where StructCopy failed. If I remember right it was something pretty deep - like a struct having an array that had structs itself.

RE: Trying to access information I just inserted in Access
Bruce and Steven, I hate to quibble, but there are some issues with this psuedo-code that I think should be pointed out. 1) The use of the application.dsn variable: if you use this variable, you will need to wrap the entire query with a CFLOCK inorder to lock the application scope for readonly access. I would suggest you duplicate the application scope into the request scope and access request.dsn, which eliminates the need to CFLOCK. See the recent summary on this issue for more information. 2) CFTRANSACTION: The first two queries need to be wrapped with a CFTRANSACTION tag. By doing to you ensure that CF is getting the correct ID since no other writes to the table can occur within the CFTRANSACTION block. Without it, there is the possbility (however remote) that another user wrote to the database between these two queries and when you extract the Max ID, you are getting that record and not the one you really want.

Are forms really structures?
Hi I've been doing some testing with the form scope and have been getting some inconsistent results on cf 4.5.1. AFAIK the form scope is available as a structure: If i have a form with the following field: form name=myform action=test3.cfm method=post input type=text name=name value=kola input type=Submit /form and on the action page create an additional form field, Then loop over the field names with the follwing code, only the real form field submmited by the form is displayed. cfset form.fake = hello cfloop list=#fieldnames# index=current brcfoutput#current#/cfoutput /cfloop hr If I then loop over the form as a structure: cfloop collection=#form# item=current brcfoutput#current#/cfoutput /cfloop The real form field(form.name), plus the one created on the action page (form.fake) and the fieldname variable (form.fieldname) are all displayed. So the question is, is this a feature or a bug?

Re: Are forms really structures?
oi Kola!!
I didn't think forms were a structure in versions LT 4.5 ?
I did this to convert them.
cfscript
//cf_frmtoStruct struct=myStruct
frmStruct = StructNew();
aryfrmNames = ListToArray(form.fieldnames);
for(i=1; i LT ListLen(form.fieldnames)+1; i=i+1){
StructInsert(frmStruct,#ListGetAt(form.fieldnames,i)#,evaluate(form.
ListGetAt(form.fieldnames,i)));
}
SetVariable(caller.#attributes.struct#,frmStruct);

RE: SUMMARY: Request Scope Follow up Locking Questions
that's why you just whack the local copy of the variable back into the session scope (locking it, of course) at the end of processing. ie, CFLOCK READONLY request.localstruct = Duplicate(SESSION.mystruct) /CFLOCK .. processing on request.localstruct... CFLOCK EXCLUSIVE SESSION.mystruct = Duplicate(request.localstruct) /CFLOCK christopher olive, cto, vp of web development cresco technologies, inc 410.825.0383 http://www.crescotech.com -Original Message- From: Sima Lee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2001 8:50 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SUMMARY: Request Scope Follow up Locking Questions Hi Terry, It's a very nice summary, however, I have some thoughts after reading. A couple of notes here: if you do this, use something like cfset request.var=Duplicate(session.var) to transfer the variable. If you don't use Duplicate() - correct me if I'm wrong someone! - then request.var just becomes a 'pointer' to session.var, and session.var is still actually read when you refer later to request.var (rendering the whole business kind of redundant!). Duplicate() - which is only available in CF4.5+ - makes request.var a 'deep' copy of session.var, and then request.var technically has nothing to do with session.var except having the same value. And you said: This gets to what I was really looking for because I want to do some things with structures and session variables and how best to work with them... I think to use request.var this way you can only read the variable. Since the duplicate() function creates a new structure which copies the value of the seesion.var, any changes you made to it will not affect the actual session var(That's why you want a copy not a point). And the request.var will go out of scope after the current request, at next request you still make a copy to the actual session.var! This is just my thought if I am wrong please correct it.

I had spent the better part of 2 days studying my 4 CF Reference Books plus checking many online sources and still didn't really understand the concept but you guys cleared it up real quick. I'm sure others are interested in this so I thought I'd summarize what I learned. Below I have cutpasted some snippets from the thread and added a few of my own comments. 1. What exactly is the Request Scope? On 11/11/2001 at 3:59 AM gyrus wrote: The request scope lasts for the duration of each request. If you define request.var, every file (includes, custom tags, whatever) that's processed from then on in the course of that HTTP request has access to request.var. It seems kind of stupid now, but I couldn't understand why they were called Request variables. D! It's because they persist and are available to all templates and custom tags in a single HTTP request! On 11/11/2001 at 2:15 PM Peter Tilbrook wrote: I may be wrong but once set (eg: in the application.cfm file) if you do not provide a scope (eg: Application., Session., Client., they become variables in the REQUEST scope. You can then access them anywhere in a template without using a scope, eg: H, but how does that fit with custom tags?.. On 11/11/2001 at 5:07 PM Dave Watts wrote: It's identical to the local Variables scope in all ways except one: the Request scope is available both to a page and to any custom tags called by that page. It was added to make custom tag programming easier. If, for example, you wrote a recursive custom tag, it might have to write to the Caller scope to return its results, requiring a bit of tap-dancing around. Using the Request scope, you can have a variable that can be accessed easily from any custom tag, no matter how deep the recursion goes. Ok, that makes sense. And Peter wasn't quite correct. If a scope is not defined when a variable is set they are in the Variables Scope, not the Request Scope--the difference being that Request Variables are accessible (both Read Write, I presume) in Custom Tags as well as the Calling template. 2. How are Request Variables similar or different from Session or Application Variables? On 11/11/2001 at 5:07 PM Dave Watts wrote: They're not persistent memory variables, as are Session, Application or Server variables. Goes back to my new found understanding that Request variables only last for a particular HTTP Request. 3. When should/shouldn't Request Variables be used? On 11/11/2001 at 5:07 PM Dave Watts wrote: You can use them in place of the local Variables scope any time you like, really. The only time it wouldn't be appropriate to use them this way is when you want to create a variable that isn't accessible from both a

Loop through the elements of the form and add the value of any field whose
name begins with Reg_. You may also want to put in some validation that
all the fields are numeric and do not contain any non-numeric characters.
function sumValues() {
var TheSum = 0;
for( var i=0; idocument.FormName.elements.length; i++) {
if( document.FormName.elements[i].name.search(/^Reg_/) != -1

// put numeric validation here?
TheSum += document.FormName.elements[i].value;

It's not a bug really and I am surprised it hasn't been picked up before.

Re: Jscript totalling with dynamic CF Fields..
In addition to Nate's solution you could also use the this keyword onblur to
do what you want, and you dont have to think about the names.
script
var total = 0;
function addVal(number) {
//adds passed value to running total
var total += number;
//sets hidden field to current running value
document.formname.total.value = number;
}
/script
input type=text name=#dynamic# onblur=addVal(this.value);
input type=hidden name=total value=0
I just typed this up, so there might be a type somewhere. You would probably
also want to do check if the passed value is numeric before adding it too.
function isNumeric(string, ignoreWhiteSpace) {
if (string.search) {
if ((ignoreWhiteSpace string.search(/[^\d\s]/) != -1) ||
(!ignoreWhiteSpace string.search(/\D/) != -1)) return false;
}
return true;

I think to use request.var this way you can only read the variable. Absolutely - maybe I should have said. I generally transfer session variables into the request scope in application.cfm so that I don't have to worry about locking every time I want to read a session variable (90% of my use of session variables). Of course, if I need to update a session variable, I use a lock for writing to the session variable itself, and the updated value gets read back into the request scope next time round (you can update the corresponding request variable immediately if the value might be needed within the same request, naturally). - Gyrus ~~ Your ad could be here.

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: JavaScript to navigate around data entry input forms
A bit OT,(just an intellectual exercise for me...) but I'm curious as to why?? you are using arrow keys to navigate the fields? What is the user to do when they need to arrow key around inside a text box ??? Though I can understand moving around a big grid with Tab/ShiftTab can be a drag. At 11:50 AM 11/13/01 -, you wrote: The first thing raised is Cross Browser Compatibility - if you want it, then it'll increase your work no end No, that's OK. IE4+ is required to use this site. Anyways, without starting on code, the general principal is to capture all events and check for the arrow key presses, then you have to find out where the cursor currently is (you can't just assume) and move it in the correct direction Thanks. I think I'm starting to get a handle on it. I've used onKeyDown to return the name of the form input. I guess I also need to return the key that was pressed to determine what form input to put focus on. The thing that I'm not sure about is how to do that (think it might related to something called which) and then what to do if the form field to which a key press should take the cursor doesn't exist (ie when the cursor is on the far right hand side and you press the right arrow).

Having major problems with session variables
Hi, Session Variables seem to be a hot topic at the minute, so I was wondering if anyone could shed some light or give some advice on the problem below. We have a multiple user web based application that is all user-profile based. User A is the site administrator with full access to the site. User B is a member of company 1, and he can only see his companies data on the site. User C is a member of company 2, and he can only see his companies data on the site. What we are experiencing is a swapping of user profiles. User B is logging in as himself and is happily navigation through the site, gaining access to their own data, until they start to see information which is supposed to only be relevant to User C. User A is sometimes logging in, and is getting restricted access to the site because he has somehow inherited the profile of another user (who has a lower access privilege). Somehow the profiles are being swapped while the users are in the system. We are using session variables for the profiling, and access privileges, but the somehow are getting mixed up. When we are calling session variables in a query on any individual page we have declared local variables corresponding to these at the top of the page, and referenced these throughout the rest of the page, see below, cflock timeout=10 type=READONLY scope=SESSION cfset Variables.chris = session.chris /cflock . cfquery name=queryName datasource=#mydsn# Select * from table where user_id = #Variables.chris# /cfquery We are also using StructClear() to kill the session variables when the user logs out.

Re: Having major problems with session variables
Well, as far as the sessions getting mixed up I do not see how this is
happening unless they are sending links to eachother with their session vars
in the url. One thing to note, is that with structClear() you will be
killing all session vars and not just the user that logged out.
I would say that using temp variables would be the best way to go
IE CFAPPLICATION NAME=SecureApp
CLIENTMANAGEMENT=Yes
SESSIONMANAGEMENT=Yes
SETCLIENTCOOKIES=Yes
SESSIONTIMEOUT=#createTimeSpan(0, 0, 60, 0)#
!--- Lock all session variables to assure security in the use of sessions
//---
CFLOCK scope=session type=exclusive timeout=10
!--- Define CFTOKEN CFID as temporary variables,
this will alleviate the problem of security
in accessing another clients variables //---
CFIF isDefined('Cookie.CFID') AND isDefined('Cookie.CFTOKEN')
CFSET tempID = Cookie.CFID
CFSET tempToken = Cookie.CFTOKEN
CFCOOKIE NAME=CFID value=#tempID#
CFCOOKIE NAME=CFTOKEN value=#tempToken#
/CFIF
/CFLOCK

RE: Having major problems with session variables
Are you literally using the user's first name as the session variable? if so I would not do this. If you have not done so create a user table with a unique ID for each user and when they log in use that unique ID as the session variable for that user. Also check overall for variable naming to make sure that the same names are not being used for different variables and in addition make sure that all variables are fully scoped. I would also check that the user session variables are being deleted by checking if they still exists after they are supposed to have been deleted. One last tip, directly after log in I usually present the user with a screen saying something like Welcome Joe Bloggs to xxx, if you are not Joe Bloggs please log in again. May seem obvious but it is a small double-check that something did not go wrong in the log on process. Hope this is relevant and helps.

(http://www.cfdev.com/jmail/) I talked to them a few weeks ago and it seems like a much needed replacement for cfmail. I'm soliciting responses for how it's working for those of y'all that are using it; how many emails can it handle? Do you loop around the tag or do you use ValueList()?, etc. (How many values could ValueList() support in the first place?) I know they are supposed to release an update sometime real soon, if they haven't done it already, that's supposed to handle a query input and a few other things... I can not speak for Active Mail but can about the limitations of of the CFMail tag. We use Howie's iMS Server. We use the SE edition regularly to send out substantial volumes of customized mail.

RE: Are forms really structures?
You are not looping over the form scope here, you are looping over the form variable form.fieldnames. The presence of this variable in the debug output makes me believe that this list is actually created by the browser and submitted together with all the other formfields. Which would also explain why this variable is not updated when adding fields to the form scope/structure serverside. The variable FORM.FIELDNAMES doesn't come from the browser; it's created by CF in any script to which form data has been submitted. It's been around in CF since at least version 2, and it allows the construction of generalized form data handlers, since you can loop through the list of all form data sent from the browser with it. Of course, in version 4.x and up, you're probably better off looping over the Form structure. I suspect that FORM.FIELDNAMES has been kept around with its behavior unchanged just for backward compatibility. One interesting thing about FORM.FIELDNAMES is that, if you have multiple form fields with the same name, the name is listed multiple times in FORM.FIELDNAMES, which reflects how the browser actually sends the data. So, if you use it to write a generalized form data handler, you have to take that into account.

Can I use the SQL Server client tools to, on a daily basis, replicate his inventory in-store with the main SQL Server?

Re: SUMMARY: Request Scope Follow up Locking Questions
But surely that means that CF is using double the memory for every request... Memory to store the session details and memory to store the session details.. Tis true, but the sites I've done so far aren't generally high-traffic sites, and there haven't been any problems. In fact, 99% of the time in the work I do, session variables - and hence the request scope doubling-up - are only used in the backend CMS, only used by a few people at a time.

Re: SUMMARY: Request Scope Follow up Locking Questions
I would think it would depend on the usage in the app. For instance I refer to the data source in dozens if not hundreds of places in my apps and I certainly am going to make that a request scope var because I doubt there is measurable overhead in request.ds=blah and it avoids putting locks in nearly every template. If, however, I have a complex struct which I refer to only in a few places I am going to leave that a session or application var and lock it when necessary rather than duplicate the struct every time I hit application.cfm.

Re: StructClear(Session)
I actually just needed to delete a structure, so I read up a little and tried out some cfdumps, and according to Jedi Master Forta (Web Application Construction Kit, 4th Ed), StructClear just erases the current user's session (and everything in it.) It doesn't erase all session variables on the server, just the one's tied to that user's CFID and CFToken, which includes CDID, CFToken, SessionID, URLToken, and whatever variables your application uses...

Text Area character count and differential-incremental insert
I am working on a ColdFusion 5.0 DB2-ODBC application and have the need to count the characters inserted into a text area and action different SQL dependant on the number of characters. The text area input has to be broken into chunks of 250 characters unknowns to the application user (they go on merrily typing). The first 250 characters go into the prime table and the following chunks of 250 characters need to be inserted as separate records in a second datasource each chunk have an incremented sequential ID. The chunks are reassembled into a contiguous blocks at SQL Select-Run time using the incremented sequential ID. All this complexity is because the DB2 datasource cannot accept more that 250 character blocks. Has anyone done anything like this or can give me any pointers to where to look.

TextArea wrapping
I need to figure out why some textareas are limited in my table to the width of 100% while others just go way over. Is there something I could be missing.

Re: More OT Javascript: Dual Submit Buttons on One Form.
I get that all of the time. Name your submit button something else. I think it has a default name as submit, so when you call the submit method: document.Timeentry_billable.submit(); It thinks you are referring to the submit button, not the form's method. so you need something like: input type=submit name=MyDeleteButton value=delete -Craig - Original Message - From: Angel Stewart [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2001 3:44 PM Subject: More OT Javascript: Dual Submit Buttons on One Form.

SQL Query
SELECT DISTINCT highlightDates.highlightID, HighlightDates.HighlightDate,
Highlights.*
FROM Highlights, HighlightDates
WHERE HighlightDates.HighlightDate = #startweek# AND
HighlightDates.highlightdate = #DateAdd('ww', 1, startweek)# AND
Highlights.HighlightID = HighLightDates.HighlightID AND Highlights.Status =
1
Can some one tell me why the query above doesn't work
I thought it would only look at highlightDates.highlightID and select a
distinct one of those, but it seems to be trying to do a distinct over all
of the selected fields
help! how can i make it select a distinct highlightID?
