RE: javascript window.close() twist
The problem is that when you refresh the parent window, the parent-child relationship is destroyed. You can create a frame set with only one frame and open the window from the frameset. This way the relationship still exists after refreshing the frame. When you log out, trigger another function in the frame set to close the child. If frames are not an option, I don't see an easy solution. You could make your child refresh every x seconds and if the user logged out, close the window, but this is not an elegant solution and might give you problems if the menu is using dhtml (can't keep status on refresh) HTH Pascal -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: Brrrian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Verzonden: ma 10/11/2003 3:13 Aan: CF-Talk CC: Onderwerp: _javascript_ window.close() twist The Issue When the user wants to LogOut I need to Close the Child Window.I can't get anything to work.

OT: Attempts at banking fraud
It staggers me that there are people in the world who will attempt to rob others by cleverly imitating a bank/credit unions email to attempt to gain access to someones funds. They usually attempt this with cleverly crafted HTML email messages. Microsoft has also fallen victim to this atttempt at validity by the look of a message alone. I've received a few of these lately. Keep in mind it is highly unlikely that your own bank would ever send you something via email that would ever ask you for personal information (they would more than likely have it already). In fact your bank would not even really need to know your email address at all. Whenever I receive these bogus messages, and I have received several, I forward them to the Australia Federal Police in their entirety. You should do the same to your respective law enforcers (eg: FBI). PS. I'm not even sure if it was a valid email but Microsoft are offering $25,000 worth of software for $299 through their Partner program. It looks legitimate - clever - but probably not the real deal.

RE: Attempts at banking fraud
The one I just got took the cake: subject was You have won a Sony Handicam (This is not Spam). The message purported to being part of the grand opening of a new online AV store - it provided a code to claim your prize.After stripping the URL ID from the link I went to the site: yes, it said, I won.All I had to do was fill out my information. Standard stuff: address, phone number, etc UNTIL.The bottom of the form had a red apology: We're sorry, but our credit merchant is current experiencing difficulties so we cannot accept credit cards at the moment.To claim your prize please enter your debit card information instead. The form actually had a Debit Card Number AND PIN Number entry boxes. What worries me is that the form looked very professional (up until that point) - I'm sure that at least some people have been taken in. Although, in your case, it may be seeded from the truth.Microsoft does offer a very attractive Partner Provider deal (I'm a subscriber).You join up as a Registered Partner for $299 (I got in on a special $100 deal) and they send you quarterly software packages: pretty much all of their software (not for resale but otherwise full editions) and sales/migration material. The software package is called the Action Pack.Here's a link to it: http://members.microsoft.com/partner/salesmarketing/partnermarket/action pack/default.aspx?nav=ln It's a truly great deal, but I would only subscribe via the official Microsoft.com website.You actually get full copies of all current OSes (Windows 2003 all editions, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, XP Pro and Home, etc), Exchange server, Visio, MS Office, SQL Server, MS Project, and tons more. I do know of at least one scam where people gather many of these packs and then sell the software for huge profits on eBay.

RE: javascript window.close() twist
I do something like this quite regularly. I open a window on one page, then after a few screen refreshes I close the window. The attached is the code that I use.It should work.Generally what it does is opens the window with a specific name on one screen. Then after a few screen refreshes the new page runs the code to open a window with the same name.It doesn't actually open the new window, it just gets control of the original popup window and then it closes it. There is other code in these js clips, but you should be able to get rid of them. !--- CODE THAT GOES IN THE PAGE THAT OPENS THE CHILD WINDOW --- script language=_javascript_ !-- function popup() { var winnew; CFOUTPUT var myWtPg = '#InclDir#bau_wait.cfm?type=PROC'; /CFOUTPUT var myWtPgSet = 'toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,width=400,height=200'; var myRetTxt = 'Changes made to the database cannot be rolled back. \n'; myRetTxt = myRetTxt + 'Are you sure you want to run the procedure?'; var ret =confirm(myRetTxt); if (!ret) return false; winnew = window.open(myWtPg, Wait, myWtPgSet); winnew.focus(); } //-- /script !--- CODE THAT GOES IN THE PAGE THAT CLOSES THE CHILD WINDOW --- script language=_javascript_ !--var winnew; var myOpts; myOpts = toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,width=400,height=200; winnew = window.open( , Wait, myOpts); winnew.close(); //-- /Script Steve -Original Message- From: Pascal Peters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 10, 2003 3:51 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: _javascript_ window.close() twist The problem is that when you refresh the parent window, the parent-child relationship is destroyed.

RE: Getting CF to trigger a SQL data export to text file
Create a bcp command line. Then you can make it dynamically. Here is an example... (can be run from query analyzer or made part of a stored procedure) declare @bcpcmdline nvarchar(4000) declare @sqlfilename varchar(100) select @sqlfilename = '\\myserver\mydirectory\myfilename.txt' select @BCPCMDLINE = 'bcp select rec_id, employee_name from ' + ' Employee_table order by employee_name queryout ' + @SQLFILENAME + ' -S ' + @@servername + ' -T -t, -c' EXEC MASTER..XP_CMDSHELL @BCPCMDLINE, NO_OUTPUT What this will do is query the employee_table for rec_id and employee name and save it as a comma delimited file using a trusted connection. You should be able to find out more information of the switches. Also note that it is very easy to modify the @bcpcmdline variable to do what you need dynamically.

Correct, and be sure to seed it with a different number each time (maybe using GetTickCount() or some combination of date and time). Be careful when seeding randomize() with the output of gettickcount() - in MX6.1 the value returned from gettickcount() is too large to fit in an int and hence can't be passed directly to randomize()...I usually do something like this: randomize(right(gettickcount(), 6) * rand()) Tim. --- RAWNET LTD - Internet, New Media and ebusiness Gurus.

RE: Attempts at banking fraud
In Australia the Microsoft Action Pack is available only to registered partners.You cannot legally buy the US $299 deal and use it in Australia. The Action pack is intended to allow the Microsoft Sales Partners to have fully legit copies of all the latest software, in production environments (but not web sites) running their businesses on the latest stuff, in order to be fully conversant with it when they come to talk to potential customers.It was a clever way to make it more worthwhile for partners to get the software legitimately than the common practice prevailing before the action pack was released - namely buy a copy for inventory or for customer use and make dodgy copies before delivering to customers. It's a splendid idea I think, because suddenly, all those dealers, resellers, recommenders had not only legal copies of the products they normally sell, but the other things they wouldn't normally sell too.Enough to run a small business on. (Larger businesses could afford to buy their own copies of software, Microsoft reasons). I think this is a logic that could prove profitable for Macromedia too.I develop web sites but every time a new version of software comes out, I have to pay to buy full copies of everything(Unless I happen to fluke a freebie at a CFUG meeting!!).If MM want us all to be selling and recommending their products,what better way than to make sure we're all using the latest versions of everything? They wouldn't have to do it for free, or even near-free, as Microsoft has proved.But the MS Action Pack gives the equivalent of the entire business product line for A$500 a year. How many of us were reluctant to update to MX2004 products because of the expense, and the fact that we'd only recently bought MX?How are we all supposed to talk confidently about MX2004 if we're only using MX ourselves? My suggestion?Macromedia start having NFR software available to legit dealers/resellers.At the moment (as I understand it) it's only available to partners, who have to pay some thousands of bucks to be partners.Makes it right out of the ballpark of us small shops.

clustercats problem
oi CF-Talk,!! We are trying to cluster two servers using CFMX Enterprise and ClusterCats with WIN2K and IIS 5.We are following the directions outlined in the Using ClusterCats PDF from the Macromedia website.The problem we are having is with setting up the Dynamic IP addressing so the servers will failover in case one goes down.Below are the steps we have taken: 1) Each server was assigned a unique IP for the website and one for the maintenance address. 2) These IP's were added to the DNS Forward and Reverse lookup tables, and were confirmed using NSLOOKUP. 3) With all IP's bound to the NICs, ClusterCats was installed on each server. 4) A cluster was created using the Wizard, and no maintenance address was specified per the instructions.So far, so good. 5) The website address was removed from each NIC, and each website in IIS was checked to make sure the website IP was still bound to the website. 6) Each machine was rebooted. After rebooting the servers, ClusterCats Explorer shows that the second server (dev2) is unavailable even though the website and all required services are running.The IP for dev1, which shows as available in Explorer, is being properly assigned as that server can be browsed. We have tried several variants of the steps taken above, and each time we find that the second server comes up not available. If we run ClusterCats Explorer/Cluster Wizard from dev2, the same thing happens but in reverse (dev2 is available after reboot, but dev1 comes up as unavailable.) Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! /crit -- --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

I am using CFEXECUTE on a PKZIPC application and I need to be able to capture the output of PKZIPC to STDERR. I can successfully capture STDOUT but this does not help if the UNZIP fails for some reason.

Re: Attempts at banking fraud
The US Action pack also requires you to be a partner, as I am.It is free. All that required was an exchange of email with the MS regional manager, and a telephone call. The main difference between the MS program and the MM reseller programs is that MM requires a substantial up front payment to become a reseller. I have been able to fully utilize the promotional materials and presentations accompanying the action pack from MS to assist in training customers, and it has really enhanced my sales of MS server products.You will receive enough CD-ROM based presentations to satisfy most any presentation need. Another benefit is being able to offer MS software through License Online, where your customer can purchase MS products, (as well as several other products) at attractive discounts, all very legitimate.You are also given access to their mass mail (spam?) marketing list to promote your own services as well as the availability of MS products through you. To me the most exciting new product from MS is actually two products, the first being a fully licensed copy of the new CRM product, which is awesome in itself, but even more exciting is the conferencing software included in the new Office product, that puts MM's Flashcom to shame. == Stop spam on your domain, use our gateway!

RE: SOT: HSphere Control Panel CF DSN Creation
They can easily create them with the CF Administrator panel but obviously that's not something they'll open up to the public. Are you saying that your host refuses to create a DSN for you manually, merely because their choice of control panels doesn't support the function natively?Egads. No, they will gladly create a DSN for you, as a matter of fact they'll create as many of them as you need for Access, Excel, etc.It's just that their current choice of control panels (HSphere) does not support creating CF DSN's.They are pondering switching to Helm for their control panel which would eventually offer CF DSN support.

While CF 5 and earlier could use ODBC DSN's defined in the OS directly, for CF MX they need to be defined in the OS, in the ODBC Server and in CF MX. So the story does sound right to me. Best thing would be not to use ODBC but to use pure Java datasources (JDBC Type 3 or 4). Setting them up is very easy to automate in CF MX, all you need to do is add a key to the datasources structure in the datasourceservice: http://spike.oli.tudelft.nl/jochemd/index.cfm?PageID=12 Jochem -- Who needs virtual reality if you can just dream? - Loesje [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Security concerns regarding GetPageContext()
Folks, sorry if this has been discussed here before but I have two simple questions: 1) What are the security implications of the GetPageContext() function in a shared environment since it's impossible to disable it via CFAdm? Can I manipulate/see or change CFServer info using the function? 2) CF ServiceFactory and access to other CFMX sensitive info/data/config can't really be disabled? I'll offer CF shared hosting for non-for-profit organizations here in Brazil (thanks to MM philanthropy program!) and I think is better to disable CFOBJECT and CreateObject(), even using sandboxes in the servers. Yes, people are very nice, but I'm not sure about their programmers...I know that server, application and other shared scopes are open for everyone but the ServiceFactory represents a very easy way to determine who is on the server, what applications it has and even sessions are running! Does MM provide a TechNote or even some info regarding it? I know they have blocked the access to some objects (eg. SecurityService) but it's a wierd-error blocking and non documented. I've googled a lot of things related but nothing conclusive nor explicative, specially focused on shared hosting. Jochen has some nice info on his site but I'm looking for a way to avoid the use of ServiceFactory instead of using it. PS: multiple instances is not an option. Many thanks!!

RE: Does CF Studio 4.52 get along with XP Pro or XP Home?
Thanks to all of you that gave me the OK to upgrade to XP with CF 4.52. But... If I am just making web sites with cf, would you recommend XP Pro or XP Home? My income depends on my productivity, and when I have to re-learn a piece of software, that reduces my productivity. In addition, I have long ago decided I want nothing that Dream Weaver has to offer. I don't do Flash stuff, and frankly, I don't have a high opinion of MM's techsupport. In addition, their prices are high, and the software is not reliable or there would be about 50% fewer posts on this board. I'm not looking for an onslaught of opposing views here, I just like to stick to software that I know well through years of use.

input boxes ande double quotes

RE: CF+MySQL+Apache french characters not properly displayed.
Hey Yves! I was having the same problem on win2k mx 6.1 mysql version 3.xxx whatever it was, if I recall the webserver was IIS but it was the same problems you described... accents converted to ? . I had to resort to setting all the encodings to iso-8859-1.I noticed though that accented characters that were embedded in my .cfm templates who were not from the database worked fine. It was only the ones in the DB..., which I thought was weird.But setting cfprocessing, cfcontent and encoding forms to use iso-8859-1 did the trick for me as well.

ToString() throwing a NULL NULL...
I'm trying to export a XML file from a XML variable, and the following code has worked for the last several weeks, but now is throwing the Dreaded NULL2 Error*: cfxml variable=Exportsome xml tags/cfxml ...then, this throws an error: cfoutputtextarea cols=75 rows=30 style=width: 100%;#ToString(Export)#/textarea/cfoutputcfabort ...but this does not: cfdump var=#Export# label=Exportcfabort ...so, it must be the ToString() function.I've searched through the rather large variable for any misaligned or malfigured nodes, but everything looks fine.I've googled and searched mm.com for a bug, but can't find anything...can anyone help me out?The best I've got is to use cfsavecontent instead, which I guess works...but I don't like it, cfxml makes me think I'm doing something wrong and I want to get to the bottom of it.

Re: Dynamic SQL
You probably have to wrap your query in a PreserveSingleQuotes() function.By default, CF will escape single quotes in variables passed to a CFQUERY tag.

RE: Attempts at banking fraud
Action pack is for MS Sales Partners to use in their own business.It's to give the partners and their staff real life exposure to the products, to have them using all the latest stuff internally.To sell MS products you have to have a relationship with a distributor, and each distributor makes their own decisions as to who to do business with.Microsoft will give you a list of distributors if you contact the sales partner office where you are. I talked about Action pack originally because I think it's an excellent concept and I think Macromedia would do well to consider a similar concept for their own network.I'm not sure it's a great thing to be talking about Microsoft sales policies on a MM list is it?This is supposed to be a ColdFusion technical list.

Re: Unicode with CF and MySQL (re: CF+MySQL+Apache french characters)
After some testing I can say its a magic bullet.I've got Russian, English and Chinese text on the same page, stored in the same mySQL 4.0 text field record. i believe its storing the actual utf-8 encoded text rather than ucs2 (ala sql server, java cf). in any case and before you get too giddy, try some string functions within mySQL and also make sure it actually sorts these langauges properly.

Data Model Design question
Say you've got a COURSE table that represents many courses. New courses will always be being added to the table. Each course will have many quizzes and questions that need to be stored. You would not want to have a single QUIZ table with a composite key of COURSE_ID and QUIZ_ID because potentially this table would become prohibitively large, correct? Also, each quiz will have many questions, stored in a QUESTION table. This even more so would become prohibitively large if you stored questions for every quiz in every course in one table. Sooo, you would want a QUIZ table and QUESTION table for each course, correct? If so, these table names would be assigned dynamically. That's easy enough if you just, say, appended the COURSE_ID to the end of the QUIZ or QUESTION table, but you run into a problem if you want all database access to be through stored procedures, as I don't know of a way to use dynamic table names in stored procedures with SQL Server. Is there a better way of doing this? Thanks, Mike [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: Data Model Design question
You would not want to have a single QUIZ table with a composite key of COURSE_ID and QUIZ_ID because potentially this table would become prohibitively large, correct? While it might become large - very large, even - I don't think it would become prohibitively large. The same is true for your QUESTION table, for that matter. We've done quite a few survey and HR applications that store many, many records of the same sort - questions, groups of questions, answers, etc. These applications have worked well enough despite the number of records. Sooo, you would want a QUIZ table and QUESTION table for each course, correct? No, I wouldn't. Whenever you find yourself modifying your database schema during the running of your application due to new data being added, that should be a giant red flag signalling to you the potential inadequacy of your schema. Of course, there are exceptions to everything, but for the most part, a well-designed schema should be able to manage any data generated during the normal operation of your application without modification. That's easy enough if you just, say, appended the COURSE_ID to the end of the QUIZ or QUESTION table, but you run into a problem if you want all database access to be through stored procedures, as I don't know of a way to use dynamic table names in stored procedures with SQL Server. You can always execute strings within your stored procedures using EXEC or sp_executesql, but in general, this doesn't help performance any and should be avoided when possible, I think.

Re: Unicode with CF and MySQL (re: CF+MySQL+Apache french characters)
For that matter, I wonder what happens when someone searches on the data.This is a cms with no string functions in the picture.It uses an arbitrary numeric sorting system, so we're safe on that score.If we can store and retrieve, with functioning simple search, we should be OK... maybe.

This is a cms with no string functions in the picture.It uses an arbitrary numeric sorting system, so we're safe on that score.If we can store and retrieve, with functioning simple search, we should be OK... maybe. good luck but lack of real unicode support was a bad set of problems in cf5, trying to manipulate utf-8 isn't fun (though if you can shift your app logic to clientside, js makes that nasty job much easier). Some of this I have to leave to people who actually speak the language. Frustrating only being able to do half the job... actually you can test sorting yourself, pile in some language text see if it sorts according to unicode block. unicode blocks should sort ok within themselves.

RE: Data Model Design question
Michael, As long as you have proper indexing setup on the table, there shouldn't be an issue with querying it. You can also run a Trace on the table, once it is use, to see if any additional indexes can be created, based on the actual usage stats of the table Dave -Original Message- From: Cohen, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 10, 2003 7:30 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Data Model Design question Thanks guys!
