Re: Getting data into Flash 8
As far as the patent goes, yes MM was letting it slide but as we know MM is no more and Adobe isn't so lenient with their copyrights, which as far as i know isn't just remoting it's for the AMF format, so technically speaking AMFPHP is running on Adobe's patent. My point to it is, what are all these people going to do that are running it IF Adobe decides to pull the pull on them using it? Not trying to dog it just being realistic. So many times technologies get bad raps due to the lack of knowledge. Yeah but that was because of prior problems, I remember several hosts telling me no way they'd put it on a shared server one was more like HELL F*CK NO YOU AINT COMING ANYWHERE NEAR MY F*CKIN SERVERS WITH THAT SH*T!! haha ~Dave the disruptor~ From: John C.

AMF goes beyond Flash Remoting so I don't know anything about copyrights either company owns. Yes, a full version has been released and it has GREAT improvements! The documentation is improved as well as the error messages. Check it out amfphp.org . So everyone knows, I am in no way affiliated with amphp folks and do prefer Remoting + CF.

RE: Digital Signing a SOAP Request
I searched their documentation for 48 hours to find the URL to post the XML to use their web services. I finally had to find it from google. Ridiculous. All I get back from that is connection failure. When I go to the URL directly, I get a browser alert error. A search for part of that... incorrect or unexpected message reveals that the error is generally related to not having a proper client-side certificate. The SOAP/XML part shouldn't be too hard.

Re: U.S. Grants Patent For Broad Range Of Internet Rich Applications
In a patent infringement case, a defendant may argue that: 1.) A patent is invalid because it was granted in spite of the fact that knowledge embodied in the patent already existed (in other words, the invention is not new, Sections 102(a) and (b)). 2.) Anything new in the patent is trivial and obvious to one skilled in the industry (the non-obviousness requirement of Section 103). 3.) A patentee withheld material information from the patent examiner. 4.) Even if a patent is valid, pantentees can lose their patent rights if they misuse their patent. This most often occurs if the patentee tries to extend patent monopoly by tying the sale of a patented product to a nonpatented product. This is a viololation of Section 3 of the Clayton Act, which is an antitrust statue. I think this guy's patent is invalid because it is trivial and obvious to the web development industry. JavaScript, XML, XSLT, DOM, and DHTML are all obvious to our industry. Also, RIA development is not new, it is just catching wind. You probably remember when the patentee of the Active-X object persued Macromedia for using their patented process for embedding swf's in a web page. Well, Balthaser could have patented the XMLHttpRequest object, if he had created it, but that is not the case. He could not, however, patent the use of Assyncronous JavaScript and XML because it is not a technology itself, but the collections of obvious technologies used together (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX). That would be like patenting the use of HTML with CSS. That's my two cents.

Flash Form Problem
I have been struggling with this for several hours now, and am at the end of my rope. I am hoping somebody here can help. I have a flash form with 3 cfselect controls on it. 2 of the cfselects contain a listing of states, which I have just added manually in the form setup with a bunch of option tags inside the cfselect. The third cfselect is populated from a query that runs when the form loads containing the names of Internet Service Providers. I also have a cfgrid component that is populated when the form loads with a list of customers. In the onChange event of the grid, I populate the controls on the form with the customer details, and also choose the correct option from the cfselect controls that correspond to the customer record. The 2 cfselects that I populate manually with the names of states work fine, but the cfselect that is populated dynamically from a query will not display the appropriate ISP that corresponds to the customer record. It never changes it's value. Here is some code: The onchange of the cfgrid calls the custGridChanged function: public function custGridChanged():Void { selectOption(provider, custGrid.selectedItem.I_Name); selectOption(state, custGrid.selectedItem.CU_State); selectOption(billingState, custGrid.selectedItem.CU_bstate); ... ... } You can see this calls another helper function called selectOption to find the correct values in the cfselect public function selectOption(cbox:mx.controls.ComboBox, optionToSelect:String):Void { var itemFound:String; itemFound = no; for (var i:Number = 0; i cbox.length; i++) { if (cbox.getItemAt([i]).data == optionToSelect) { cbox.selectedIndex = i; itemFound = yes; break; } } if (itemFound == no) { cbox.selectedIndex = 0; } } As I said, this code correctly displays the values for the state combo boxes that I manually add values to, but does not find the correct value in the ISP combo box that is populated by a query. The code to populate the ISP combo box is as follows: ispSelect.labelField = I_Name; ispSelect.dataProvider = result; !--- result is the variable being passed back from a CFC containing a recordset of ISPs --- The ISP combo box does get populated correctly. Thanks for any help with this, and sorry for the long email. If there is a more appropriate forum I should ask this question, please tell me and I'll move it there.

Are you by chance running Fusebox 3 with the conditionals in index.cfm? If so, remove them, leaving only the include for the CF5 core file.

There is no fusebox code. I am moving my site from cfm-resources to crystaltech hosting. I restored the sql with a .bak file and ran a datacompare with red-gate sql tools. The database looks fine. I set up the site to have identical 'sql, username, and passwords' and yet I will get an error saying a column name doesnt exist in the database when in fact I can see it in enterprise manager.

Re: Can moving from cf server 5 to mx7 cause an app to stop working?
There is no fusebox code. I am moving my site from cfm-resources to crystaltech hosting. I restored the sql with a .bak file and ran a datacompare with red-gate sql tools. The database looks fine. I set up the site to have identical 'sql, username, and passwords' and yet I will get an error saying a column name doesnt exist in the database when in fact I can see it in enterprise manager. Very confusing, for all intents the sites should migrate well but are not. Thanks again for your advise.

I don't know if CF5 supported validation off-hand, but coming from MX 6.1 to 7 there were some issues with cfform usage and validation. Also check and see if your host has the new 7.01 patch installed.

Re: Getting data into Flash 8
LOL. I'd like to talk to those hosts to see what their issue was. It is like them telling you no to putting Pear on the server. It isn't their call. You pay for space...put what you want on the server, as long as it is legal. As said, it doesn't take the host to install it. Again, amfphp is nothing more than a set of files you put on your server. Although Adobe has the patent I HIGHLY doubt they would nix other amf products. That will just limit Flash's use with other technologies which would be dumb. There is a free Remoting gateway for .net as well and about 2 or 3 for php. They would be dumb to stop it and I say they would never do it especially since MM was becoming so community driven and Adobe is continuing, and bettering it seems (hence the Flex 2 pricing, etc), to work with the community. IMO, Adobe will never tell everyone using amfphp they need to stop. As said, that would be dumb. On 2/26/06, dave [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: As far as the patent goes, yes MM was letting it slide but as we know MM is no more and Adobe isn't so lenient with their copyrights, which as far as i know isn't just remoting it's for the AMF format, so technically speaking AMFPHP is running on Adobe's patent. My point to it is, what are all these people going to do that are running it IF Adobe decides to pull the pull on them using it? Not trying to dog it just being realistic. So many times technologies get bad raps due to the lack of knowledge.

AMF goes beyond Flash Remoting so I don't know anything about copyrights either company owns. Yes, a full version has been released and it has GREAT improvements! The documentation is improved as well as the error messages. Check it out amfphp.org . So everyone knows, I am in no way affiliated with amphp folks and do prefer Remoting + CF.

Re: Getting data into Flash 8
You don't have to use nested associate arrays. You can use numerical or associate. CF Stucts are nothing but associate arrays anyway. If you know how to use PHP classes then you know at least what an array is. You can return virtually any type in php to Flash. In the latest version you have more types you can return (including xml). http://www.amfphp.org/docs/datatypes.html So you know, when I first used AMFPHP I didn't know PHP that well. I was the definition of novice, in terms of PHP. But PHP classes are similar to ECMA classes so it wasn't hard to catch on. If you aren't a PHP developer then PHP itself is the problem...not AMFPHP. If you don't know CF then CF is the problem...not Remoting w/ CF. PHP's learning curve is somewhat steep. The issue with AMFPHP was the documentation was horrible at that point in the game (early versions) so the installation portion was a pain. Everything dealt with server-wide installation on Apache so it was terribly confusing. Once I figured out it was just a folder everything else was a piece of cake.

Re: Getting data into Flash 8
I don't want to go into a hosting dispute but any host who controls my content and/or files is a bad one. That means, any product I develop that is in beta stage can't be posted on their server which may be my testing environment. It just contradicts the idea of purchasing X GB's/mo (or mb's) for you to use for your own personal or business use if the content is filtered. That's utterly ludicrous for a host to do such a thing. These are just my opinions. I promise I won't respond to your hosting comments if you decide to respond to this. I know this post has gone WOT. Anyways, did you get the Remoting going? If you want side help I'd be more than willing to jump into Breeze and show you hands-on how to do it. Just let me know off list.

Re: Getting data into Flash 8
Actually I didn't ask for help with remoting was just responding. As far as what you say about hosting, I totally disagree. If you are on a shared host in a production enviroment you shouldn't be allowed to do beta tests or anything even remotely close to that, do that on your dev machine or get your own server for your experiments. It's a production machine and not just yours but hundreds of other peoples as well and beta and experiments aren't for production servers, why would you think they are? Next time your server is crashing just think oh hey I bet that's someone testing their beta product or code, I'm sure your customers will be real happy with that answer when they ask whey their site is going down a lot, it's bad enough with ppl running bad code. Personally, I don't think it's off topic because we are talking about a technical issue and I would be curious to see what others say about it. I have been on servers that go down a lot and ppl say oh thats just coldfusion server but then I move to an new server and it purrs along with no problems then I find out it's because someones experimental code. Of course I could be wrong and shame on me for using a shared server and take the lumps and bumps but if everyone on a server had commen sense and didn't use it for their personal playground they wouldn't be crashing. If that's what you want get a dedicated server. ~Dave the disruptor~ From: John C.

RE: Getting data into Flash 8
If you just want to argue for the sake of arguing, than I'll just gracefully bow out, but if you think that novices have the first clue when it comes to ECMA... you should try teaching them. Their implementation was flawed for the first 7 releases and though I commend them on their achievement, I can't believe that the functionality they're providing is even comparable to CF, which is what I consider easy. I'm done and out. !k -Original Message- From: John C. Bland II [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2006 4:06 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Getting data into Flash 8 You don't have to use nested associate arrays. You can use numerical or associate. CF Stucts are nothing but associate arrays anyway. If you know how to use PHP classes then you know at least what an array is. You can return virtually any type in php to Flash. In the latest version you have more types you can return (including xml). http://www.amfphp.org/docs/datatypes.html So you know, when I first used AMFPHP I didn't know PHP that well. I was the definition of novice, in terms of PHP. But PHP classes are similar to ECMA classes so it wasn't hard to catch on. If you aren't a PHP developer then PHP itself is the problem...not AMFPHP. If you don't know CF then CF is the problem...not Remoting w/ CF. PHP's learning curve is somewhat steep. The issue with AMFPHP was the documentation was horrible at that point in the game (early versions) so the installation portion was a pain. Everything dealt with server-wide installation on Apache so it was terribly confusing. Once I figured out it was just a folder everything else was a piece of cake. On 2/26/06, Kevin Aebig [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It depends what kind of implementation you're trying to accomplish. My point is that for someone without a lot of PHP experience, the nested associative arrays can intimidating. You seem to assume your views based on your own knowledge and skills, and that's fine.
