From my perspective, there are 2 major areas where CF saves money. First, development time.CF development is, IME, faster; less development time = saved money.Second, what you don't have to buy.My ASP experience goes back to ASP 3.0, so things might have changed with .net, but with ASP, if you wanted to do file uploads, or send emails, or do any of that special stuff, you had to go find a third-party solution which would usually cost $$$. So, take the argument from this perspective.Come up with an application that involves database access, file uploading, writing your own logs, robust error handling, and sending emails.Agree on the requirements, then have 2 developers of roughly equal skill levels develop the app in both CF and ASP.See who's headed for happy hour and who's headed for the bottle of excedrin.

Confused by Verity in CFMX
Hi, I am using CFMX standard at a Host, so I have no access to CFAdmin. I am dealing with large amounts of data for a hockey stats database. Problem I have used CFCOLLECTION to index a few database tables and some PDFs. I appear to have reached the permissible limit which is 125,000 records. But I am confused by exactly how the value is determined. For example, I have the following collections: - collection of players with appx. 25,000 records - collection of about 50 PDFs - collection of teams with appx. 4000 records - collection of player notes with appx. 15,000 records So in total, there are no more than about 45,000 records that need to be indexed. I listed the total collections on the box with a script and there are only two others (than mine) for what appear to be small sites, but obviously I cannot be sure of how large those collections are. Problem == - When I index the player notes collection, it only indexes the first few thousand records and then quits, with no errors. I am certain that it is not indexing all of the records as some of the values I know to be present do not get returned. Furthermore, this is te exact behaviour I experience on my laptop which uses CFMX Dev. edition which has a max Verity size of 10,000 docs. The only way I knew that I had reached the limit was bylooking in the CF logs, so I suspect that the same thing is happening at the host. Confusing == Despite thinking that I may have reached the max record limit, when I re-index the player collection after I add 200 new players and re-index the collection, they are present. If I were in fact at the limit, would the player collection not grow either? Questions == - Is there a function to determine the number of records indexed? (Host is not using K2...I tried those functions) - I understand that each row returned in the indexed query is considered a document, but does it somehow consider joins in the equation? - Should I resort to database searching and just use Verity for PDFs? Any info appreciated. James [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: One slow server...
I've also checked the SQL in the SP's that CF calls, and there seems to be nothing wrong there; when I run them in the command line they only take a few seconds to run.However, it takes several minutes for the login to process on the web. I'm at a loss. Anyone got any ideas as to what I could check next? As Jochem suggested, you should check the patch history of the Windows machine. You might also try connecting from other clients on other machines, to see if you can narrow down the cause of the slowdown. You might use ViennaSQL and the MS SQL Server JDBC driver to test.

Re: price of aspx vs cfm
Think of ASP.net as a whole different language and paradigm than straight ASP. In fact, as a framwork, ASP.net looks and feels quite a bit like Flex. Good ASP programming with use a combination of code-behinds in vb script, C# classes that are inheareted into the ASP.net page and stored proceedures for accessing data, and custom componet tags. With that out of the way here are some of the more compelling reasons to use CF. 1) Cold Fusion is not tied down to the Windows platform. ASP.net is definatly tied to the whims of microsoft. In fact you can run Cold Fusion in a Linux/Apache/Tomcat environment. The last time I checked, these systems were free. Windows as the operating system can cost anywhere from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on the version selected. Linux/Apache/Tomcat can be downloaded for free. In fact, if cost were the only issue, take a look at Jarkarta Struts -- a Java framework containing many of the same features as ASP.net. Since your team is not considering Struts --this tells me that cost is not the only issue here, rather your team wants to use the Microsoft platform. 2) ASP.net is tied to the current version of the IIS webserver. I do not believe you can use the Apache webserver with ASP.net. In fact Microsoft considers IIS an application server for ASP.net. hi guy Can someone give me advantage/disadv in asp.net and coldfusionmx?. asp.net is free? or how much?.

Rather than using #cleanpathinfo# (which is generated by SESconverter for its internal use) you would be better off using the cgi variables directly, on IIS a combination of cgi.PATH_INFO and cgi.query_string. The cleanpathinfo is used internally by SESconverter, and in hindsight it should be destroyed by SESconvert.cfm once it has served its purpose.

The single user version is good if I am the only person to hit the box, but if I'm limited by ip address I could run into an issue if it decides to bind on 127.0.0.1 instead of an outside IP address. Can you make ColdFusion bind to another ip on purpose? You can ensure that the first request to that CF server is made through that IP address. Offhand, I don't remember whether CFMX accepts requests from one IP address, or localhost and one external IP address. I think it is localhost+1 external. Although too busy to confirm. ;) [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: disable back button when using div's
cf coder said: I want to disable the 'back' button when the user sees the confimation message. Is this possible, if yes can somebody please show me. You can kludge some workarounds that will fool most browsers, but you can't reliably disable the back button. In *my* browser *I* decide whether *my* back button will work. You can do whatever you want on the server, like ignoring the second/third etc. submission of the form, because you control the server, but the client controls the browser.

Re: Syntax error on Where statement?
instead of asking 'is that it?' (in relation to trimming the report_date value), why not simply try it? other than that i'd suggest that if your maint_report_date column is a date/time datatype, you use a createODBCDate() function around the value (and drop the single quotes).I'd futher suggest using a cfqueryparam for both of those dynamic values (maint_report_date and id).

With that out of the way here are some of the more compelling reasons to use CF. 1) Cold Fusion is not tied down to the Windows platform. ASP.net is definatly tied to the whims of microsoft. In fact you can run Cold Fusion in a Linux/Apache/Tomcat environment. The last time I checked, these systems were free. Windows as the operating system can cost anywhere from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on the version selected. Linux/Apache/Tomcat can be downloaded for free. In fact, if cost were the only issue, take a look at Jarkarta Struts -- a Java framework containing many of the same features as ASP.net. Since your team is not considering Struts --this tells me that cost is not the only issue here, rather your team wants to use the Microsoft platform. 2) ASP.net is tied to the current version of the IIS webserver.

I don't know what Bob's needs are, but we regularly want to evaluate a piece of software before even putting it on our test server. Our test server is a mirror of the production server and shouldn't have random evaluation stuff or beta testing software put on it.

The Mono project supports ASP.NET (http://www.go-mono.com/asp-net.html). However, in real life, you aren't going to run into too many people trying to use ASP.NET on Unix.

http compression
Hi, I might have asked this question earlier... But I really, really want to be using gzip/http1.1 compression on all text output from the server (Apache, Solaris, CFMX). It seems like I am unable to use mod_deflate, since jrun kicks in and Apache does not have any control over it. I have seen a few references on the net about using servlet filters for this purpose... Are anyone using that? I guess the only other option is to use a compression proxy (not a very attractive solution). -- Hugo Ahlenius - Hugo AhleniusE-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Project Officer Phone:+46 8 230460 UNEP GRID-ArendalFax:+46 8 230441 Stockholm OfficeMobile:+46 733 467111 WWW: http://www.grida.no - ### This message has been scanned by F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange.

RE: ColdFusion Developer Edition
Yes, $50-$100 for a Dev work group version that serves only the current subnet would be really nice.(Not that my office needs it. We got involved in a dot bomb and now we have plenty of extra CF server licenses for Dev servers.) Not that I am trying to defeat MM's single IP dev version, but could you not take a basic home router and plug it in backwards (wan port to the single IP CF server) and thus the router uses only 1 IP address to access the CF server?Then whole network can access the CF server through the router via NAT?I doubt I will ever try this config. Just thinking out loud. I am 100% sure this violates the Dev server licensing or at least the sprit of it. :-) Mark W.

has anyone gotten to a max size for this before? I'm having exactly the same problem. Apparently the limit is around 20Meg. The problem seems not to be with CF, nor Internet Explorer : it occurs the same with Netscape. It looks like it's an IIS issue: the server refuses the upload and returns a 404 error.

Re: Problem with ReReplace

Are you trying to remove all the brackets? Are the | meant to be ORs?
If so, this might do it. We build a class out of the puncuation you want to remove. The [] need to be handled seperately since they are special and can't be placed in a class.
cfset other=[\(){}]
cfset tmp = REReplaceNoCase(tmp,other,,ALL)
cfset tmp = ReplaceNoCase(tmp,[,,ALL)
cfset tmp = ReplaceNoCase(tmp,],,ALL)
I am sure someone smarter will show you a better way.

RE: Problem with ReReplace
What are you trying to do?
If you're trying to remove all the slashes, parens, brackets and braces,
then you'll need to escape those characters, as they have special meaning in
regular expressions.Try this one:
cfset other = \\|\(|\)|\{|\}|\[|\] /
You can also make this a easier by using a character class:
cfset other = [\\[\]{}()] /
Finally, you don't need the NoCase version, since you're not using letters.
Cheers,

Re: disable back button when using div's
There have been a few forums on this list on diabiling back buttons. For better or worse there is always a way to activiate the back button that you did not know in a specic browser. Ditto the same for the browser's history. Take Joachim's advice on this one (never a bad idea to begin with) and assume that someone will use the back button and trap the error! Here are a few ideas you can consider on the server side: 1) Create a session variable if the person has added a record. When you have finished the process delete the session variable. If someone uses the back button, having the session variable in hand, you can now handle the situation. 2) When inserting data into the database, check to see if the information has been entered correctly into the database. If it has, then stop the database transaction. 3) Surround the transaction with cftry/cfcatch to check if someone is entering the form with the wrong information. If this is the case then someone is accessing the information through the browser's history. Jeremy Hello everybody, I've read a lot about disabling the browser back button when a user submits a form where the action page is different from the submitting page.

MX (and I'm assuming JDBC) doesn't like semi-colons in SQL statements in MX. Also, can anyone tell me how to query for just 3 records in Oracle? I know how to do it in mySQL, but... SELECT myColumn FROM ( SELECT myColumn FROM myTable WHERE myCondition = 'foo' ORDER BY myColumn ) WHERE rownum = 3 Regards, Dave.

He3
Hey everyone, Some of you have been working with Matt Liotta's Eclipse plugin for ColdFusion so we thought you'd find this of interest. Gestaltech (my company) and R337 Consulting (Matt's company) have formed a partnership (http://www.richpalette.com) for the construction of a new product, He3, a ColdFusion IDE based upon Eclipse.We're going to be making a beta release of the product at CFUN-04, the big east coast CF conference (http://www.cfconf.org/cfun-04/index.cfm). Sorry for the spam-ish update. rish Guy Rish [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gestaltech, Inc. be more... http://www.gestaltech.com [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: add a column in oracle
Sorry, wrong database... SELECT * FROM foo WHERE rownum 4 Note that this will not work if you have any sort of ORDER BY clause because Oracle uses the rownum clause before the ORDER BY. This is why I posted the other way of doing SQL Server's version of TOP. Regards, Dave. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: downloading .exe from website
You would have to modify your URLScan.ini file to allow the .exe extension, but then you open up your server to much nastiness.

Re: One slow server...
Dave Watts wrote: I've also checked the SQL in the SP's that CF calls, and there seems to be nothing wrong there; when I run them in the command line they only take a few seconds to run.However, it takes several minutes for the login to process on the web. I'm at a loss. Anyone got any ideas as to what I could check next? As Jochem suggested, you should check the patch history of the Windows machine. You might also try connecting from other clients on other machines, to see if you can narrow down the cause of the slowdown. You might use ViennaSQL and the MS SQL Server JDBC driver to test. I don't maintain the server myself.I hate working with Windows servers, so I'm quite happy that I don't have to maintain this one.;-) As far as I know, our NT babysitter keeps it up to date. I've tracked the problem down, actually, to a single table in the database which appears to be corrupted.It may have happened during a recent attempt to replicate the table from another database.At any rate, it's moved beyond a CF question to a SQL Server question. -- Richard S.

RESOLVED - FYI : Oracle 9i and cfqueryparam problems
Wow, folks using CF for reporting w/ Oracle DBs should re-evaluate the use of using bind variables. For transactions and the like they are fine but in the case of reporting, bind vars can wreak havoc. The over simplified explanation is that bind variables can inhibit the work of Oracles optimizer in a couple ways. The optimizer ends up using heuristics to generate the best explain plan rather than using information about data distribution. (from stat tables etc) The problems may have been exaggerated in our case considering the sheer volume of data (and DB links) we have...but nonetheless we've seen dramatic improvements in response time after removing all bind variables! (couple minutes down to seconds!) See Oracle technet for additional info! Cheers, Stace From: Stacy Young Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2004 3:48 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Oracle 9i and cfqueryparam problems Has anyone had any issue using TIMESTAMP as the datatype for bind variables when using cfmx 6.1 with Oracle 9i? It seems we're getting queries that run for very long periods of time...if we take out the bind variables...query only takes a few seconds! -Stace [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
