This is a lazy man's question. I think you're confusing what they are. Flash is the development tool - it's where you build all Flash content (although there are now third party tools as well). Flash remoting is strictly a server-side extension allowing your application server (ColdFusion in our case) to communicate VERY easily with Flash movies. So while you still need Flash to build the content Flash remoting allows you to easily integrate that content with your web application.

RE: [ OT] Special security Alert!
It's easy, turn off the Auto Preview and then don't open messages that have titles like "RE: movie" from people you don't know that you didn't send a message titled "movie" to in the first place. :) There are ways to disable HTML email in Outlook, although they may be above the general user's head a company's IT staff could at least take There seems to be little reason to disable HTML email if virus protection is your goal. Instead you should simply prevent active content from running. This is easily done (and is the default in later versions) by adding outlook mail to the "Restricted" Internet Zone. You do this in the "Security" settings of Outlook. This, of course, won't help those that open attachements or lack virus protection - but it does prevent active content from running in HTML messages.

RE: array question
ArrayToList will only accept a single dimensional array, not a two dimensional array as you have it. This only makes sense: what would ArrayToList() return for multidimensional arays?

RE: Previous/Next with Files
I like Jamie's method and think it's probably the best, but I thought I'd
just throw another idea into the mix. I wrote a couple of (untested) UDF's
that will recursively look for the previous/next file until it finds it.
The "safetyCounter" is there to avoid an endless loop, so you can adjust the
number as you see fit.
Just a thought.
-Brad
function getPreviousFile(fileDir,fileID) {
var newID = fileID - 1;
var filePath = fileDir & '\' & newID & '.cfm');
var safetyCounter = 1;
if (arrayLen(arguments GTE 3)) { safetyCounter = arguments[3] + 1;
if (safetyCounter GTE 20) { return ""; }
if (fileExists(filePath)) {
return newID;
} else {
return getPreviousFile(fileDir, newID, safetyCounter);
}
}
function getNextFile(fileDir,fileID) {
var newID = fileID + 1;
var filePath = fileDir & '\' & newID & '.cfm');
var safetyCounter = 1;
if (arrayLen(arguments GTE 3)) { safetyCounter = arguments[3] + 1;

Subject: Previous/Next with Files
I have a directory that can have a small amount or possibly a large amount
of files (3,000) files.
Here would be an excerpt of the directory:
10330.cfm
10331.cfm
10336.cfm
10440.cfm
10441.cfm
10442.cfm
10445.cfm etc..
If someone is looking at 10440.cfm, I would like to have two links a link to
10336.cfm (previous) and a link to 10441.cfm (next).
I could do a CFdirectory and populate a list with all the file names and
then look to the before and after the selected file for the next/previous,
but that seems alittle intensive.
Does anyone have any suggestions on the most efficient way to get
next/previous files?
Any help would be appreciated!

Re: List email format
News to me as the mail is properly formatted to contain new lines. Critter is using the bat and hasn't reported that problem. If you email me off list I'll work with you to make sure it's all working ok. In addition, as mentioned before, you can just change your settings to text only. This will remove the html banner and formatting. I prefer it if people don't do this as the new banner system will hopefully generate some corporate support for the lists that can be channeled into features such as paid tech articles and the like. > Hey all, > > Is it just me, or have other people noticed that the last 10 or so > posts from the list appear with no line breaks at all, just one long > string of text. > > There was talk of emails going out in HTML format.. it looks like this > has happened because my email program is now showing an HTML > attachment to all emails, with the HTML properly formatted. > Unfortunately, the text version seems to have a line break problem. > > The average size of the emails has jumped too, from 1 - 3 K to 7 - 12 > K. > > I am using The Bat! for my email.. and if you want me to change > clients you'll have to pry it from my COLD DEAD HANDS! > > bye! ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: Jrun4 and CFMX
> But a lot of > people don't know enough about CFML to consider it a viable alternative > to JSP and / or they believe the FUD - Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt - > spread by CF's detractors... Well, if you ever used CF3.0, which had NO proper way to handle multithreaded session requests, and had a lot of ridiculous restrictions on the usage of tags, or the collosal POS that was CF4.0 (quite possibly the WORST application web server ever made - I still can't believe that piece of garbage made it to market), I can see how people don't exactly trust CF these days... Of course that was over 4 years ago... a lifetime in Internet terms. CF 3 did have threading issues - but was otherwise a HUGE leap foreward: intergrated Search engine, full mail support (albeit a bit broken), custom tags, etc. CF 4 also had problems of course and we might consider CF 4.5 the first "modern" version of CF. However it's riduculous to compare those versions to the modern versions: remembe what ELSE was available then? NOTHING was very good at the time (well, except for Perl, I suppose). WebPlus a poor CF clone, Java was so much in it's infancy you couldn't really build squat (except for memory-leak-ridden applets), ASP was promising but had some SEVERE problems of it's own. Compared to what was available at the time CF 3 and 4 were actually about evenly placed, I think. We built some damn fine applications on them (actually we built some damn fine applications on versions 1.5 and 2 as well). I agree that people seem to be carrying outdated impressions of CF - but why just CF? You rarely hear people complaining about ASP's threading model (which inversion 1.0 REALLY sucked) but I still hear people spouting off that CF isn't multi-threaded (it is, of course and has been for years) or that it can't handle any significant load (it's been able to since 4) or that it lacks some other basic neccesity that it's featured for years (like structured exception handling, recursion, custom functions, etc). I'm not sure why this is, but it definately is a problem. Jim Davis ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: Jrun4 and CFMX
> Well, if you ever used CF3.0, which had NO proper way ... What was the point of that post? POS, indeed. My 2 cents worth: we've been using both CF and JRun for some time now. JSP, on its own, has nothing to recommend it over CF, except that you can deploy JSP apps on free standards-based software such as Tomcat (before anyone mentions BlueDragon, I don't consider CFML a standard). CF's built-in functionality is still way ahead of what you can do with easily/freely available JSP taglibs. It's almost the most productive platform it's possible to imagine. I would never dream of using JSP to develop a small-to-medium sized application or website, if I could use CF instead. However, if you're developing complex apps that have to integrate with multiple pieces of Java-based software (and there are some good ones out there), then imo it makes sense to minimise the number of technologies in your bag by going with a completely Java-based approach. It streamlines your source code base a little, which is always a good thing. Nick ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

A response should be the text that a person is responding to and their message.

Re: New email format
1. Your accounts will not be altered by me in any way. To change to text only email, you'll have to change it by hand. As I'm trying to make the email as painless as possible and keep as many people on the HTML email, there's a reason for not making text only the default (besides that it would affect other lists not on the system yet). 2. Even though the email is sent by the list in a legal HTML format, the body of the email is text only. Viruses, attachments, markup, scripts, etc. are stripped out before being sent. 3. The mail is formatted so that any system should be able to reply and quote properly. If a system has problems with quoting, please contact me off list and I'll work with you to find the issue. My goal is as close to perfect email as possible. 4. A minimum of 10% of the banners on the lists will be dedicated to non-profit CF resources. If you run such a resource, please contact me. 5. Money from the banners (when the banners are actually for pay) will be used to pay for House of Fusion / Fusion Authority features to the benefit of the community. Many have used the "best of talk" and enjoyed it. Many have used articles from FA to their benefit. Our goal is to keep all of our resources free for the community to use while paying people to add to those resources. Articles, features, code, etc. > On Tuesday 23 Sep 2003 10:11 am, Michael Dinowitz wrote: > > There's always the text only option on the subscription page. :) > > I thought this was going to be on by default, at least for existing > subscribers ? > Could you clarify what is going on with HTML emails, or not, any preferences > that have an effect, and any pre or post processing the mailing list software > performs ? > ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Yes. Few actually go into the details of cross platform mail issues (I can name 2 or 3 of the thousands I know). Unix only uses Chr(10) for new lines while windows uses chr(13)chr(10). Which should I use? How should I wrap it. Every wrap program that exists does something wrong with the wrapping, which means I have to write a wrap from scratch and then make sure it's 100% over all posts. Anyway, end result will be solid mail and lots of potential experience for any email job I may get. :) ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

copying from one datasource to another
I have 2 datasources, AccessLocal and WeirdRemote, this latter is some sort of bespoke DB on a Unix box down a leased line somewhere the other side of London, but I can get at it from CF via ODBC, and for that matter from Access (on the server) via ODBC. What I want to do is copy various tables on WeirdRemote into AccessLocal, basically to get a local copy of various tables on WeirdRemote, but not all records (so there has to be a query of some sort). Now I could do this by doing a query on WeirdRemote in CF and then looping over it with a load of Inserts into AccessLocal, but this would be rather complicated, and quite likely very slow. A better option seems to me to have a set of 'Make table queries' saved in my AccessLocal datasource and then I simply 'run' them from CF and the entire thing is then done in the background between WeirdRemote and AccessLocal, and in fact this can be done manually in Access, but because of WeirdRemote's licencing setup, only from the server. How to call the 'make table queries'? I don't seem to be able to do it via CFQUERY but I expect this can be done via COM into AccessLocal... anyone have an example code? -- Regards; Richard Meredith-Hardy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: + 44 (0)1462 834776 FAX: + 44 (0)1462 732668 ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

CFC Complex Data Return Types
I've just been running through some of the flash tutorials from MM.com and found use of a StockTicker Web Service ( http://www.swanandmokashi.com/Homepage/WebServices/StockQuotes.asmx?WSDL ). When I load this into flash 2004 pro I get a nice little description of the return being an Array of Objects which works well in Flash. I am trying to replicate something similar in CF for the purposes of learning data binding in Flash 2004 pro but am having a nightmare trying to figure it all out, mainly how they have managed to return an array of objects. Does anyone know how to do this, or are there any closet flash gurus out there that know how this all works and is willing to give me some pointers?

RE: Jrun4 and CFMX
Point being that many companies put their faith into CF, only to find out that it bombed at higher loads, or that it was just generally unstable, even in low load situations, or that some of the integration features didn't quite work properly. It was not a comparison between JSP (which is junk, BTW) and ColdFusion. -Original Message- From: Nick de Voil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: September 23, 2003 12:40 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Jrun4 and CFMX > Well, if you ever used CF3.0, which had NO proper way ... What was the point of that post? POS, indeed. My 2 cents worth: we've been using both CF and JRun for some time now. JSP, on its own, has nothing to recommend it over CF, except that you can deploy JSP apps on free standards-based software such as Tomcat (before anyone mentions BlueDragon, I don't consider CFML a standard). CF's built-in functionality is still way ahead of what you can do with easily/freely available JSP taglibs. It's almost the most productive platform it's possible to imagine. I would never dream of using JSP to develop a small-to-medium sized application or website, if I could use CF instead. However, if you're developing complex apps that have to integrate with multiple pieces of Java-based software (and there are some good ones out there), then imo it makes sense to minimise the number of technologies in your bag by going with a completely Java-based approach. It streamlines your source code base a little, which is always a good thing. Nick ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

WebPlus a poor CF clone, Java was so much in it's infancy you couldn't really build squat (except for memory-leak-ridden applets), ASP was promising but had some SEVERE problems of it's own. Of course it's ridiculous. But it's still happening.

We built some damn fine applications on them (actually we built some damn fine applications on versions 1.5 and 2 as well).

CF4.5 finally fixed everything else, and CF5 was quite nice. > I agree that people seem to be carrying outdated impressions of CF - but why just CF? You rarely hear people complaining about ASP's threading model (which inversion 1.0 REALLY sucked) but I still hear people spouting off that CF isn't multi-threaded (it is, of course and has been for years) or that it can't handle any significant load (it's been able to since 4) or that it lacks some other basic neccesity that it's featured for years (like structured exception handling, recursion, custom functions, etc). > I'm not sure why this is, but it definately is a problem.

Fine, but how do you you make sure tha the date submitted is in that format? ;-)
The purpose of the function isDate() is supposed to check if a string represents
a valid date
in the US format ("mm/dd/"). If it accepts any date in any format at any pri
ce, it is completely useless.
To solve the problem, I made a new tag and function: CF_convertDate
( free, see http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm?p=hf )
It will validates a date in any format, BUT the programer specifies the format!
No guessing here.
It will also convert the date into any other format, including ODBC.
It is more general than ODBCdate I made earlier and it replaces it.

If you receive a message with a 150k virus in it, you can "block" it, but you've got to receive it first before you can block it. My problem is not wi th blocking images, it is with NOT RECEIVING 150k from so many viruses. In your example, the image is an HTTP request to get the image. Sure, you can bl ock the request and not download the image, fine, but in the virus I'm talking a bout, the images, scripts etc are not HTTP requests, they are incorporated in th e message as parts (multiparts).

>> The only way you could not receive them, would be that your ISP deletes them. Or, your ISP comes out of the stone age and offers IMAP servers instead of just POP3 accounts. Then, you have a much faster mail interface (only headers are downloaded initially), and you can send spam and virus-laden junk to File 13 before you download it to your machine. - Jim Claude Schneegans wrote: >>>I am still using Microsoft Outlook 2002 and am no longer receiving them. > >Ingenuousness is another particularity of Outlook users ;-)) >You "don't see them", because McAfee puts them "out of your look" ;-)) > >But you still RECEIVE them.

The Downtown Marriott is pretty nice. Most of the hotels in convention area are all about on par with each other. Most (all?) of them were redone for the Olympics.

Re: [ OT] Special security Alert!
well i wish aunt jamamima would personally come cover my pancakes with her maple goodness too but it aint gunna happen. So is it your isp's responsibility to filter all of your emails? Your the one in ppls address books, so I hardly see why its now their problem. Welcome to the web:) anyways, i Know y'all never listen to me but listen this time. I use a program called epropter. Its a mail checker that sits in my tray & I can open it up at anytime and check & read my emails (text format) without opening outlook and having to download all that crap. You only get text no attatchments, so its safe to open just about anything. Then I delete all the ones I dont want without actually opening my email client. May sound stupid but i get rid of all my junk mail, virus', read all my messages, blah blah blah without ever opening outlook, until i want to get whats there that i want. You dont know how much time that saves me alone going through the messages from this list:) > ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Re: [ OT] Special security Alert! [rebuttal]
1. Not all outlook or Microsoft users are connected to the internet and thus are not susceptible to miscreants taking advantage of built-in capabilities of the software.. 2. Scripting features have been around for quite awhile, and what may well be considered as dangerous of some, under certain circumstances, for others scripting support has been a "gee-whiz" feature, that is relatively simple to implement, and assists software in doing great things. 3. Even of the software publisher delivers software with all these "features" defaulted of OFF, there will always be the potential for error by those who choose to turn them on. For instance in the latest versions of MS software (Win2k, Win2003, etc). scripting support must be proactively selected to even install the capability. 4. A greet deal of damage has been done, and is still being done with "features" such as _javascript_, Java, Active-X and VBScript. Which one do you wish to pick on? I have added VBScript applets to my Outlook program to gather complete header information in one pass, (spamsource), and scripting to prevent html rendering and simple sender blocking, (Cloudmark) , as well as much more. Incidentally, VBScript is being used all across the MS product line, especially Office, which enables the user to do many automated procedures. Of course, all code, no matter what the name it is marketed under, can be used to do harm, and to blame the publisher for supporting the features and capability is not making good sense. Is active-x good because it will launch Flash player to entertain, or bad because it also can be used to install a high toll auto dialer to connect you to a filthy Porn web site?. Of course system attacks by miscreants are inconvenient, as well as very costly, but the blame rightfully belongs to the miscreant, and not the publisher. As long at it remains common to point the finger at the publisher, instead of the offender, little will be accomplished to reduce or prevent the misuse of computer capabilities, or the use of its advanced features. I must actually laud software publishers who have raised the level of security on their radar screens, and are implementing new security features just about as fast as they can, but at the same time trying to keep their products usable, and to make the "gee-whiz" features available to those who would ethically implement them. This provides value to the end-user, and is not necessarily product dependent. In order to implement security, they have the consideration of not having the implementation break their software, or to limit its use by legitimate and ethical users. Computer and communication technology has come a long way in the past 15 years, and is continuing to move ahead at an ever increasing pace. This requires administrators to not only constantly improve their skills, but to actually make up for the ignorance of "appliance users" that are part of the community. You have the inherent obligation to not only stay sharp, but to continually educate less skilled users. A few years back I could innocently send out to a large number of recipients, electronic holiday greeting email, with embedded animations, music, and other nifty "tricks" that were enjoyed and entertaining. I likewise received many of these, and liked the features which make computing so enjoyable. Due to the miscreants, I can no longer send these, and am afraid to open the ones that I receive. Whose fault is this? Excuse me if I do not point finger at software publishers. == Stop spam on your domain, use our gateway!

With Thunderbird, I checked the option "Do not download attachments over []k" and filled it in with 50. Now, I get the message header, and in the body it tells me that the message is bigger than 50k and I can click a link to download it. Since I'm still on dialup at home, this option let me take care of the Sobig virus without very much wasted time, even though I was receiving them at a rate of about 175 a day. I just delete the message since it tells me what the attachment name is also. To me, this is a much better option than having to download all of the message just to have the virus scanner quarantine it.

I added outbound scanning to inbound not too long ago, as I have the processing power to spare and these days its better safe than sorry. Since I set it up maybe 18 months ago, email-borne virii are something other people have to worry about. It's a whole different a/v threat picture when you take your email client off the front lines. 'Course you can't do this if you are on a shared host. I would argue that in this day and age an ISP that doesn't provide this service is substandard. Between a/v and anti-spam service its certainly helped me attract and retain customers.

Editing Files In-Line
Is there a way in Cold Fusion to make changes to a text file without actually opening that file? Suppose, for example, that I have a file "myfile.html" which contains the string "***REPLACE_THIS***". How can I have Cold Fusion replace that string in the file? ~| [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Problems with large arrays
Was this question below, off topic? not technical enough? Just wondering why it didn't spark ANY replies or conversation. > I'm using three arrays to handele 34,000 items each.

The SiteFinder isn't working on my web connection anymore. Not in IE6, NN7 or Opera 6. ''cannot find server or dns error'' just like normal. I have SBC DSL. I wonder if they're doing it.

Many ISP's were updating the BIND software on the DNS routers to route mistyped URL's to nonexistent domains, bypassing Verisign's hijack. To my knowledge, though, SBC DSL hasn't done that yet. Verisign's antics don't affect all of the root servers, only a few; so it's still kind of hap-hazard as to whether you'll get to their sitefinder page or not. On my SBC DSL connection, I get to it about half the time. At UC Davis, where I work, I never get it (the University has updated their DNS servers). In my opinion, the antics of major corporations like Verisign, Microsoft, SCO, and Oracle are all the best arguments possible for the existence of the open-source community. ;-) ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=i:4:138142 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm
