RE: Problems with MX - Can anyone help please !!!
I think Univers is by IBM The steps below are what happens when trying to set up a datasource to this database through Coldfusion. Steps Involved. 1. Install ODBC Driver for Universe (IBM) - 2.

Hello All,
I've got a slideshow app,using data from a DB I build a series of
divs and
switch between them using JS and timeouts. (in a nutshell)
Everything works hunkey dorey except for one small problem with one of
the
Div's:
The page consists of a top blue bar (title and subtitle),bottom blue
bar
(generic contact info) and a middle area (content area - consisting of
a
table and an image).
The top and middle areas change with each cycle of the loop but
because the
page background is white I want to create a default top Div so that
the
different content top divs can be transparent and the change over of
div's
is smooth.
Basically I have tried setting the content top divs with
background:transparent; in the style and have played around with the
z-index
but, no matter what I try the default top div (the big blue bar)
covers up
all the content top Divs (blue bar with White and orange text)
Surely can't I setup something like:
div id=defaultTop style=background:darkblue;
/div

Not sure if this is going to help, but remember that the visibility property
still renders the container and hides its' content whereas the display
property when set to 'none', does not render the container.

help..

RE: Flash Remoting question
Are there any issues with having multiple installations of flash remoting on the same server? There can be, I think, but I have both the .NET and CFMX versions working on my laptop. I know there's an issue if you install CFMX onto a J2EE server that already has Flash Remoting (like JRun by default). In my case, the .NET stuff and the CFMX stuff are on separate virtual servers, and that works fine.

converting workstation from CFMX 6.1 Standalone to Apache/CFMX 6.1

I've got Apache up and running fine but having weird = problems with CFMX 6.1 -- I've run the Apache_Connector.bat to modify = Apache and the httpd.conf looks normal for CFMX 6.1, but while the CF = templates run, the relative pathing is really messed up -- all the = images disappear for example with bad links=20 I've got 3 production servers running Apache 2.048/CFMX 6.1 on Win2k in = production, so I certainly have done the Apache/CFMX install before -- = and I copied the virtual hosting section of one of those functional = servers over to the development box (changing to appropraite IPs, = virtual host names) so pretty confident *that* part of the configuration = is right -- problem is with the Apache/CFMX integration, not Apache = itself. So basically the question it, should I just uninstall CFMX from the box = and then reinstall it pointing to Apache or is there some instructions = for manually setting up this scenario I've missed. I *have* noticed that = the standalone install has a j2ee-web.xml file that my production = servers do not, so guessing there's a few steps I've missed...

Installing Dreamweaver mx 6.1 on machine running cf 5 server
Unbeknownst to me a coworker was running a version of cf 5 server on a desktop machine.When he installed CF Studio MX on that machine it wiped out the CF 5 installation completely and created a strange directory called /cfide_old.

CFMX integration with virus scanners?
Hi, I'm working on an application where the users will frequently upload document files from Word, Excel, Project, etc. through the HTTP Upload method. IT is wondering how we can interface the application with a virus scanning engine so that as soon as the file is saved to the server, it will be scanned and dealt with. Does anyone have any experience they could share about hooking a web app to such an engine? I've looked at the Symantec Antivirus Scan Engine but not enough to tell if it will do what we want. Also, the engine should run on Linux. Thanks. -- Howard Fore, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

cfprocessingdirective and Unicode
Can anyone see a more efficient use of cfprocessingdirective than what I describe here?This is my first try at implementation.I'm developing strictly for MX 6.1, if that matters. I'm using cfprocessingdirective pageEncoding=utf-8 Its my understanding this is technically redundant but making the statement explicit is a best practice.Is that incorrect? Presently I'm planning on plugging in the code in all files that either a)output to the screen, b)interact with the db, c)interact with a file stored on disk in utf-8 format or d)if form or url vars are being processed. The statement is to go in individually, one at a time, on every template including includes and called modules.Am I overdoing it? I am also doing cfcontent type=text/html; charset=utf-8 and using setencoding on form and url vars, but will do these once in the app in an include and application.cfm, respectively. Any advice pro/con the above would be appreciated.

IIS4 FTP Service Does Not restart on server reboot
POSTED ON CF-OT Yesterday... any takers? I'm looking for a solution... I was thinking that if I can't fix it... what about a batch file that checks to see if the service is running and starts it if it is not?Anyone see any probs with that? --- original message -- Hi there, Can anybody give me pointers on this?With regards to NT4 Server, IIS4, up to date with the major patches from MS We have an old box that is used for static HTML pages and FTP service is utilised to allow uploading for users to specific directories using NT permissions. We also have Perception Assessment software and the infrastructure geezers tell me that this piece of software requires that the server be restarted every morning to ensure that the software works correctly. Thing is, every couple of days the FTP service (not the WWW service tho) just fails to start and then of course the support calls start flooding in, somebody's gotta run through and restart the service. Which is getting annoying :-) Had a look at the event viewer and there is nothing out of the ordinary in there that doesn't happen every day due to the restart Can anybody give me pointers on where to look/fix/boot to fix this problem?

Session and Client variable problems?
Ok, here it goes... I have one domain (call it IP 1.1.1.1) On this domain I have multiple sites, but they use redirects... So, we have sites A, B, C If you ping any of these sites you get IP 1.1.1.1 they simply route to different directories based on the server_name variable. Ok so that explains that. Each of the separate sites have an Application page that is set up basically with the code below. Each sites has the exact same info in the App.cfm file except for some path stuff that I use. cfapplication name=eProduct clientmanagement=Yes setclientcookies=Yes sessionmanagement=yes SESSIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)# APPLICATIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)# SETDOMAINCOOKIES=Yes Ok, now on each of these sites you can order items. I do that with the code below using a client variable. cfset SC_cart = client. Attributes.Cart So basically here is my problem I want the cart to be globally available to all sites. I though setting my domain cookie flag to yes would accomplish that but apparently in conjunction with using client variables for my cart that is not the case. Anyone got any ideas???

JavaScript question
I am writing a small database data dictionary app. Since the db has over 500 tables I created a small form at the top of the page where I can start to type in the first few letters of the tables and it will parse the list down of available tables to choose from. Once I get the table I want, I want to hit the go button and it will take me to the table definition lower in the page beneath the form. The parsing piece works, the problem I am having is trying to get the url to post correctly through the form to go down to the part in the page the data is.
Here is my code. any ideas?

Should work fine. You do need to be sure you have updated drivers - I think 8.1.7.2 or newer. There's a TechNote on it. Chris Norloff -- Original Message -- From: Stacy Young [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date:Wed, 12 Nov 2003 13:26:45 -0500 Anyone have any problems?

RE: CFFILE Deletinng Files
I'm getting an Access Denied Error. WHY please helpy. :) Perhaps the CF server doesn't have permissiony to delete the file, or perhaps the file is locky. I'm sorry, I couldn't resist that. There are a lot of reasons why you might not be able to delete a file, though. If CF is running as SYSTEM (on Windows), it usually has rights to delete any file on the machine by default, but if you've changed filesystem ACLs, that may not be true. So, it's more likely that the file is locked. If you did anything to the file within the same CF program, or if the file was requested by a browser, it may well be locked. You can shorten this file locking time within IIS's configuration. You might want to read this stuff: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;265279 You might also find it useful to post more details about what exactly you're trying to do, and the environment in which you're trying to do it.

RE: Session and Client variable problems?
I did this for a content management system for my clients.I wanted them to be able to log in and edit the information on their site.Then, for my convenience, I wanted to log in (once) and be able to just from site to site and edit stuff without having to log in. Because of the domain/cookie issue, what I did was create a separate domain that the people log into.For instance, you might create cart.domain.com and have all of your different carts point to that domain.Then they always stay on the same domain.Not sure if that helps or meets your needs. John Burns -Original Message- From: Schuster, Steven [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 1:29 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Session and Client variable problems? Ok, here it goes... I have one domain (call it IP 1.1.1.1) On this domain I have multiple sites, but they use redirects... So, we have sites A, B, C If you ping any of these sites you get IP 1.1.1.1 they simply route to different directories based on the server_name variable. Ok so that explains that. Each of the separate sites have an Application page that is set up basically with the code below. Each sites has the exact same info in the App.cfm file except for some path stuff that I use. cfapplication name=eProduct clientmanagement=Yes setclientcookies=Yes sessionmanagement=yes SESSIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)# APPLICATIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)# SETDOMAINCOOKIES=Yes Ok, now on each of these sites you can order items. I do that with the code below using a client variable. cfset SC_cart = client. Attributes.Cart So basically here is my problem I want the cart to be globally available to all sites. I though setting my domain cookie flag to yes would accomplish that but apparently in conjunction with using client variables for my cart that is not the case. Anyone got any ideas???

Multiple Server Versions
We've got a dev server running a few instances of CF for J2EE, and its great for working on different CVS branches of our apps.However, now we need to work on a couple apps that will be deployed to Standard servers.We'd like to just leave everything on the same dev server, but I'm concerned about potential screwups stemming from developing an application on the J2EE version and deploying it on the Standard version. That a baseless concern?If not, anyone have any clever ideas to have two distinct installs of Standard on a single machine (aside from using different Apache installs and different ports?).

Ghost variables
Hello All, I have a very troubling issue with an application I wrote. I have a tabbed interface to a job tracking application. When a user selects the profile that they want to view or edit, I throw that profileID (pid) into the session scope, then I duplicate the session scope into the request scope for 'general' use so I don't have to worry about locking. Here's the code: cflock timeout=10 throwontimeout=no type=exclusive scope=session cfset Session.pid = form.pid cfset Request.Ses = Duplicate(Session) /cflock Now I have a user that says that he chooses a profile say profile 150, the profile page displays correctly, but when he clicks on another tab, I have one for enrollments, he will get the information for another profile, say 200. All I am doing on the enrollment page is a few queries with the where clause: WHERE ProfileID = cfqueryparam value=#request.ses.pid# cfsqltype=CF_SQL_SMALLINT I cannot replicate his problem. It seems like it might be browser cahce related, since the URL of the page remains the same and only the request variable will be different. Does this make sense? How can I fix it?

OT - Scsi hd
Sorry this is OT, but it's only one of the few times I've asked. I need to upgrade my server running CF. I have SCSI HD's and an Adaptec Array adapter. I installed the new HD and then one of the older larger HD's which I will put the OS (windows 200) on it. I setup the cd-rom as the boot and put the 2000 cd in it. However, the system boots, recognizes the HDs, the light comes on the cd but it then reboots and does not start the Server 2000 setup. Did I explain enough or is there more to this than meets the eye? Thanks as always and excuse the OT on this please.

RE: JavaScript question
Ah, whoops.That's what I get for not looking at all of the code.
OK, so first, you need to change your button from TYPE=submit to
TYPE=button and revise your goTo function as follows:
function goTo() {
var selIdx = document.SearchForm.cbSearchSelect.selectedIndex;
location.hash =
document.SearchForm.cbSearchSelect.options[selIdx].value;
}
The function was not being passed any parameter and it made reference to a
variable (number) that did not seem to exist.Also, it was not getting
the value of the currently selected select list option.The above code
corrects these problems.
Then, change your select list's OPTION code to only include the anchor name
and not the filename as in:
cfoutput query=gettabs
option value=#tablename##UCase(tablename)#/option
/cfoutput
Hopefully this will work for you.If not, let me know what the next error
message is and we'll take it from there 8^).

Instead of using location.href you should be using location.hash as in:

Subject: _javascript_ question
I am writing a small database data dictionary app. Since the db has over 500
tables I created a small form at the top of the page where I can start to
type in the first few letters of the tables and it will parse the list down
of available tables to choose from. Once I get the table I want, I want to
hit the go button and it will take me to the table definition lower in the
page beneath the form. The parsing piece works, the problem I am having is
trying to get the url to post correctly through the form to go down to the
part in the page the data is.
Here is my code. any ideas?
cfquery name=gettabs datasource=dictionary
SELECT DISTINCT tablename FROM dictionary
ORDER BY tableName

cfquery name=getdic datasource=dictionary
SELECT * FROM dictionary
ORDER BY tableName,fieldname

Robert, Do you have the driver disk (probably a floppy) that came with the Adaptec card?I am thinking that you will need to specify an additional driver for the Adaptec card when you do the windows 2000 install.(Hit F6 during the install when it tells you to.)

RE: OT - Scsi hd
When you install 2000 it will ask you for any 3rd part SCSI disks. It's a quick screen message you may miss. To prompt for the disk you must press the F6 key during this message. If you miss it the HD will not be recognized and you'll have to reboot and try again. It will ask you for the disk (floppy) or (cd) provided with your SCSI drive when you purchased them. Just insert the disk, select the appropriate drive and off you go. If you do not have the disk then you are in bad luck unless you can get to a PC/MAC get on the net and download one.

Import/Export - Excel to/from Access/SQL Server
I have a client who is running an ecommerce site with an Access database backend, which will hopefully be upgraded, to SQL Server 2000 very soon. The issue is he has 7,800 records in one table and 43,000 records in another table; both tables will be doubling in size very shortly. My client wants to do all of his data entry in Excel, and then do an import into his tables to add new records, and edit/delete existing records. I had thought about doing an import/export routine to/from an Excel file, but the export alone pegs the server at 100% CPU for almost 25-30 seconds. I am interested in setting up the most efficient method that will minimize the load on the server. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Re: Import/Export - Excel to/from Access/SQL Server
We do this routinely by having the Excel file ftp'd to a known location and then doing a DTS to import into the DB. You can also schedule a DTS to export the Excel file and email to the client.

RE: Import/Export - Excel to/from Access/SQL Server
I've been in the same situation except the client wanted to use Access and not Excel (primary goal was custom reporting, not just export/edit/re-import). I used XML to transfer data from the web server to the client application. I wrote server and client modules that each handled the appropriate serialization and de-serialization.It's a lot of work, but it worked out well and client was very happy in end.

Best Practices
Hello, I am in the middle of reworking an app and trying to eliminate many of the templates that were created by me (in my cut paste, make a new template days instead of making smarter templates) What is have in essence are 6 reports that are practically the same the differences are they run the same queries on different tables, and update them as well. Each page is a report is a self posting page that has reports that need to be checked off by the user as completed. So now this is what I am trying to do.When the user clicks on the report I have appended ?Reportname=myreport to the link. Now I have a case statement that uses #url.reportname# that will set all my variables for that page.Until now it is fine.The only problem that I am running into is when I try posting the page to itself to the the update (set the completed from 0 to 1) of course my reportname variable is non existant.What would be the most best way to do set up this?When I try to post the same page of course my URL.ReportName does not exist so my switch statement does not work. Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated. Thanks. Mike [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
OT: Joins in Excel?
I have a client with a small website run from an Access 2000 database.She's requested a spreedsheet of the database whatever the hell that is.I assume she's refering to the main table, which comprises the site membership. Of course that table is normally joined with several others in the database, such as membership type, etc. I could write a CF script to join the tables and dynamically produce an Excel spreedsheet that can be downloaded from the web server.But I was wondering if I just cut and pasted several tables onto different worksheets in an Excel file, can I do something like a join of the main worksheet with the others in the same file?

Re:Import/Export - Excel to/from Access/SQL Server
Barney, I agree if this was a one-time event, then I would probably proceed with a CF import/export to and from Excel to Access. The routine would actually be a regularly run on a regular basis. Jim Gurfein suggested DTS to import/export, which sound like a viable solution, though my concern is data integrity. I'll setup data constraints when I build the SQL Server database, though I wonder if there is there a way to force data integrity in Excel?

RE: Comparing Values
Use valueList() to get a comma delimited list from the c=id column of the first query then use IN in the second query sorta like this: cfset idList = valueList(firstQuery.idField) cfquery name=secondQuery datasource=blah select columns from table where table.idField in (#valueList) /cfquery Should head you down towards a quicker solution.The other idea would be to alias the table against itself and do a join against itself something like: cfquery name=getStuff datasource=blah select t.columns, ta.columns from table t, table ta where t.this = ta.this OR where t.this != ta.this /cfquery Without knowing the table and the desired result though I am not sure if this is what your looking for at all.

RE: Best Practices
But my form method is post not get wouldn't that cause that to fail? I haven't followed the thread too closely, but if your question is whether you can use URL parameters at the same time as form fields, you can. The URL parameters get put into the HTTP request header, and the form fields get put into the HTTP request body. So, you could have a form like this: form action="" method=post input type=text name=foobar ... /form and in your action page, you could have code like this: cfoutput #URL.bar#br #Form.foobar# /cfoutput Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ voice: (202) 797-5496 fax: (202) 797-5444 [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: Round and Format - Best Way?
You guessed it: #numberFormat(round(AOP.NET_PRICE), ,)# You could use a temp variable if you want, but that would be less readable, in my opinion.The exception would be if you're using the rounded value more than once, and it's not always going to be numberformatted (like in a computation).then a temp variable makes sense. cheers, barneyb -Original Message- From: Les Mizzell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 4:58 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Round and Format - Best Way?

CFMail Send Problem
Hi All, I have a weird problem occuring with an email send out using CFMail 6.1 from a SQL2000 db.Seems that SOME recipients of the message get a blank/empty message body (subject line, to and from fields are OK).We've done some checking and it doesn't seem to be email client specific (for example, I've tested on Outlook 2002 and 2003 and AOL 9 with no problem, but we have others using Netscape 7.1, Outlook 98-2000, et al receiving blank messages). My thought is that there may be a problem with the charset encoding or with the syntax of cfsavecontent. Here's the process of what happens: 1) On the application.cfm page for the Admin area !--- URL and FORM encoding --- cfset setEncoding(FORM, ISO-8859-1) cfset setEncoding(URL, ISO-8859-1) !--- output encoding --- cfcontent type=text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 2) Message data from form field (enctype=multipart/form) insered to MS-SQL2000 3) Query retrieves data from SQL 2000, in particular the qMailMessage.txtMessage is the body of the message. 4) Message composition cfoutput cfsavecontent variable=VARIABLES.textCopy #qMailMessage.txtMessage##crlf# cfif qMailMessage.unsubscribeLinkID NEQ 1#Replace(qMailMessage.unsubscribeLinkText, Chr(10), #lf#, ALL)##crlf#/cfif cfif qMailMessage.signatureLineID NEQ 1#Replace(qMailMessage.signatureLineText, Chr(10), #lf#, ALL)#/cfif /cfsavecontent /cfoutput 5) Message sendout !--- Send out to the subscribers --- cfmail from=#VARIABLES.mailFrom# #VARIABLES.mailFromEmail# query=qSubscribers group=emailAddress groupcasesensitive=no to=#firstname# #lastname# #emailaddress# cc=#copyTo# bcc=#blindCopyTo# subject=#VARIABLES.subjectLine# failto=#VARIABLES.mailFailTo# server=#REQUEST.mailserver# cfmailpart type=text#VARIABLES.textCopy#/cfmailpart cfmailparam name=Reply-To value=#VARIABLES.mailFrom# #VARIABLES.mailFromEmail# cfmailparam name=Message-ID value=#CreateUUID()[EMAIL PROTECTED] /cfmail === Thanks, Mark [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: Re[2]: Best Practices
Remember that in CFMX 6.1 the post method has been deprecated. As a result you do not need to use the method attribute as it defaults to post anyway. You would still require it for get and in my opinion it is good coding practice to still use the method=post attribute when writng your code for legibility at least.

RE: Best Practices
If the user always has to click on a button to move to the next step, you may wish to place the reports needed in a hidden form variable rather then in a URL variable.You may find that this increases the clarity of the code, especially when someone has to come back to the page at a later date. Andy -Original Message- From: Mickael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 4:45 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Best Practices Hello, I am in the middle of reworking an app and trying to eliminate many of the templates that were created by me (in my cut paste, make a new template days instead of making smarter templates) What is have in essence are 6 reports that are practically the same the differences are they run the same queries on different tables, and update them as well. Each page is a report is a self posting page that has reports that need to be checked off by the user as completed. So now this is what I am trying to do.When the user clicks on the report I have appended ?Reportname=myreport to the link. Now I have a case statement that uses #url.reportname# that will set all my variables for that page.Until now it is fine.The only problem that I am running into is when I try posting the page to itself to the the update (set the completed from 0 to 1) of course my reportname variable is non existant. What would be the most best way to do set up this?When I try to post the same page of course my URL.ReportName does not exist so my switch statement does not work. Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated. Thanks. Mike [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Network
Hey guys, right now we have an app that allows our people to view files (intranet app), and tag them (tagging the ones with a document number on the top).We're viewing like 70+ tiff images a minute.It is fine when one user is hitting the server. But when we get 5 people to hit the server, it frequently takes a bit longer for each image to show up. We can't have that, as this guy can tag anywhere from 70 to 85 images a minute. The images vary from 50k to 200k in size, and i am confused why that would slow down the network I thought a closed network in general is pretty fast.Is there any way to speed up the network?right now we use a 10/100mbps hub.and also i am wonderin how do u know if your network is running at 10mbps or 100mbps?? Or maybe it would help if we got a faster hard drive?right now it's a 7200rpm would it help to get a scsi hard drive, in terms of spitting out an image to the network? Thankie!

Re: Network
70 to 85 200 k images per minute? I think you are maxing out your network bandwidth. Ever consider converting them to jpeg format (compressed) to reduce file size and thus bandwidth requirement?

RE: Re[2]: Best Practices
Remember that in CFMX 6.1 the post method has been deprecated. As a result you do not need to use the method attribute as it defaults to post anyway. This isn't the case. POST and GET are ways to make HTTP requests, and CFMX can't deprecate them - it has nothing to do with how the browser sends data to the server. If you're referring to the CFFORM tag, which generates an HTML form for you, it will always generate a form with METHOD=POST, but this doesn't mean anything has been deprecated - this has always been the case with CFFORM, as far as I can recall.
