RIA - For discussion about Rich Internet Applications, their creation, use, etc. Flex - For non-NDA conversation about the new application and its language. Once the product is out of beta, then this will be open to all conversation. CF-IDE - Discussion about the various IDEs for CF and other languages. Studio, Homesite, DWMX, Eclipse, etc. are all on topic here Central - The new Macromedia desktop (and other places) connective environment. CF-Java - Discussion about the use of CF and Java together. This may be more specific and involved than general CF/Java talk on CF-Talk The following lists have been removed: Flashcom - Visit the more active Flashcomm list at chattyfix.figleaf.com CF-PDF - Created upon request from others, this list has never gotten any postings DWMX - Rolled into CF-IDE Finally, an RSS feed for all lists exists on the front page of each list in the control bar.

RE: SQL Help
Yes you would have to have an OR for each area code in your list in
addition to the in clause (which is expanded by the DBMS to a list of
OR's anyway which is why it is likely to run slowly).
This will extract the records you need - after that you will have to be
able to parse the memo field to extract the actual telephone numbers
that match your area codes.
In '%,nnn%' the first % recognizes that this value can have any number
of characters before it in the memo field. The ',' (comma) is the marker
which matches to the start of the numbers otherwise we would match where
area codes happen to crop up elsewhere in the numbers, the 'nnn' is the
area code we are trying to match and the last % recognizes that there
can be any number of characters following the area code.

Hello All,
I have a memo field in SYBASE that contains phone numbers delimited by
a
comma.
I need to qualify telephone numbers that are in a group of area codes,
using SQL only I can't use CF.
The is called phone_list and the values look like this
2125551212,213555-1212,2145551212
How could I in SQL only grab telephone # with area codes that are in
my
list.
I was thinking to do where Left(phone,3) in (212,213)
But how to a parse through the memo field.
Thanks

OT: HTML CSS only table question.
I have a table laid out something like this simplified example: table tr tddata/td td rowspan=4Data/td tr tr tddata/td tr tr td rowspan=2data/td tr /table I am working on the calculation that results in the unnecessary rowspan in the third row.But I don't think that applies to this issue. This results in a display such as this: (I hope this comes through clearly) |--|--| | data | data | |--|| | data || |--|| | data || |--|--| Now the problem is that the data in the right column is several lines long, and is sometimes longer then the data in the rows in the left column.When this happens, I would like the height of the top two cells to remain constant, and the bottom cell to expand to match the height of the right column.I've tried setting the height with both the height parameter in the td tag and the CSS height property.Neither seemed to have much effect. The three rows on the left are spacing themselves equally.This needs to work in our IE5.5+ intranet environment. Anybody have any suggestions?

And here is where my issue is. I am using cflogin/cfloginuser to handle security and when I authenticate the user and cflocate them to the download page which prompts them to download the file, before the location bar changes the user is presented with the download prompt and can get the file ok, but once the download completes the page now shows the login screen and not the page where the download took place? Does this make sense?

CF - post to database question
I am looking for a way to post information directly to a database from a csv, excel or text delimited file. I am looking for one of two options. Option one would give a user the ability to email the file to a specific email address and the server/web app would pull the data from the file automatically and post it in a database. Option two would be to simply give the user the ability to access a web form and upload the file to the server, which in turn would place the data in a database.

Re: CF - post to database question
Both options are possible, although the e-mail option would have more possible points of failure (i.e. mail not deliverednot read properlyforgot the attachement etc.) The only really tough part here is extracting the data from the file.There are many customs tags to extract data from Excel files, so have a look at the MM Exchange.Grabbing data out of PROPERLY formatted flat file (CSV...tab delimited etc.) is very easy (but if the formatting is off you're up the creek).You simply use CFFILE to read the file in question.That is read into a variable which you then loop through to parse out the records.Remember that the first row is usually the column names...other than that pay specialattention to the row delimiters and the column delimiters (these will allow you to seperate out each record and then each field in that record).On each pass of the loop you insert your data.

RE: Ordering a QofQ
This probably has to do with the data type of the field that you're working with.For instance, if price is a text field because you're storing $123.43 instead of a numeric field and just storing 123.43 it would sort alphabetically instead of numerically.You could probably convert the field value to a numeric value in your first query using CAST or INT and that would return it as numeric.Then your sort should work.It's been a while since I've done that, but I think it would work.

RE: Clearing Trusted Cache in CF 5
Trusted cache will prevent ColdFusion (5 or MX) from checking the disk for the file timestamp. This can have a medium to large-ish performance impact.Huge if your templates are mounted across the network on a file server. You can switch this setting on/off without restarting the server, so you can update a template, flip the switch off, request that page to clear the cache, and then flip the switch on again.All without restarting.This is by design. If you have a large number of pages that you are updating, a restart would probably be better, or (as Jon Block mentioned) a regression script which hits every page in your app (using cfhttp).

RE: On the fly DSN creation, why?
Bryan, DTS implies MSSQL and if you're using a DTS to import from an uploaded Excel or Access database, then somehow you must be passing the path to the Excel or Access file to the DTS package.This is really the same as dsn-less connection, just through DTS and not through CF. Also, you can't run an Access macro on the server without automation which is a big no-no.

RE: On the fly DSN creation, why?
Also, you can't run an Access macro on the server without automation which is a big no-no. I don't want to get into the politics of having Access installed on the machine, that's not my concern, it's the users concern. All I want to do get the reasons why people go through so much time and effort to do a DSN less connection in _CFML_. DTS implies MSSQL and if you're using a DTS to import from an uploaded Excel or Access database, then somehow you must be passing the path to the Excel or Access file to the DTS package. Yep, I was asked for an example through code, but I don't see a need to do it through code. It can be done with the database engines. You'll probably counter and say that in order to run the DTS your doing it through code anyways. My answer would be yes but your calling a stored procedure. Or firing a Macro. This is really the same as dsn-less connection, just through DTS and not through CF Yep [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

ListFind() weirdness
OK, so I'm having some weird behavior with ListFind() on CFMX and CF 5. Here's an example.I create a COMMA DELIMITED list of values, each value actually consists of 3 groups of numbers separated by an underscore. ListFind() is not returning the proper result when this list contains a single value. cfset lstTemp = 4483_035738_8647 cfoutput #ListFind(lstTemp, 4483_035738_8647)#br #ListFind(lstTemp, 4483_035738_8647, 1)#br #ListFind(lstTemp, 4483_035738_8647, 2)#br /cfoutput All of the ListFind()s are returning a value of 1, even though they should be returning 0. In this case, the list and the value I'm looking for are one and the same, so a straight ListFInd() should return an index of 1.However, if I call ListFind() with a starting position of 1, shouldn't it return 0?It works fine if the list contains more than one value, but not if it has just one value.

Jar files not being read
I just added a JAR to my app's WEB-INF/lib directory and it's behaving very strangely.I can happily instantiate and use the classes from my CF code. I can happily instantiate and use the classes from a custom Java class that is compiled and run with the JAR on the classpath.However, running that custom Java class from CF causes NoClassDefFoundErrors to be thrown, referencing the classes in the JAR. There are several other JARs in the same directory, and I've had no problems at all using their classes directly from CF and/or through custom Java classes from CF.I checked permissions and ownership, and all were as they should be.I also tried unpackaging the JAR and rebuilding it, and that didn't help either.

RE: ListFind() weirdness
There is nothing wrong with this. ListFind(list, value [, delimiters ]) The first instance. No delimiter is specified so comma would be default. Since your value is equal to the search string returns index 1. The second instance your delimiter is 1, since your value matches your search string and no 1 is in your value it returns 1. The third instance is the same as above. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

ListFind doesn't accept a 'index' argument. The 3rd argument is the delimiter, which defualts to a comma.

Technically there really isn't anyway to prevent a back button from being clicked...
