worked. I also noticed that if i placed the cfinputs below the textarea it
worked as well.

Invoking components, methods and storing instance in application scope
I am building an application where I want to eliminate instantiating the same component more than once per application. I thought it would be a good idea to setup all of the methods through the application scope: application.getters = createObject(component,cfc.GetterQueries); This way I am using what I believe is Singleton Patterns for single instances of an object. I have also seen quite a bit about using init() in every component but am not sure why I would do this if I just want to call a method from the application scope: contacts = application.getters.getContacts(); Is there any reason why this would not be a good practice? ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Priority is on cost, not so much on minutes. For example if you entered 9100 minutes and 10 lines the solution would return 9200 minutes. I'll have to get the exact plans/minutes on Tuesday to provide the solution. And if multiple options add up to the same cost then yeah, one at random would work because it meets the requirements.

methods other than GET or POST
Hi, I recently found in my error logs a request to a page using METHOD=OPTIONS... I didn't even know this couls exist. Apparently, thes requests are sent by Microsoft Office, in this occurrence, while receiving some CSV file. This caused an error in my system because no parameter the template was expecting in the URL or the FORM scope was present. Obviously, my application does not support these requests, and I don't intend to do it. I haven't find any procedure that would limit methods at server level in MSIS. Then I'm planing to add some check in my Application.cfm to limit requests to the only type I support, ie POST and GET, ie: CFIF listFindNocase(POST,GET, CGI.REQUEST_METHOD) EQ 0 cfheader statuscode=405 statustext=Method Not Allowed CFABORT /CFIF But I see many other types of requests ( http://www.askapache.com/online-tools/request-method-scanner/ ) including MOVE, COPY or DELETE!

Re: Check for Specific Numeric Date
isNumeric(form.num) will always evaluate to 0 (and not 4). It's a literal string (by virtue of the fact that it's enclosed in quotes). So this condition will never be true. What you want is isNumeric(form.num). Which will return true or false. So when you say isNumeric(form.num) eq 4... I'm not sure that's what you want. ColdFusion will accept that... it uses implicit boolean conversion so true == 4 is true.

Re: methods other than GET or POST
But I see many other types of requests ( http://www.askapache.com/online-tools/request-method-scanner/ ) including MOVE, COPY or DELETE! These are used by WebDAV. If your server isn't configured to support WebDAV, it should ignore those HTTP verbs. My question: is: it safe to allow only GET and POST? Yes, if you're not using WebDAV. What is the best practice in CF? I don't know if there really is one. CF will, by default, respond to any HTTP request made to a CF URL, but it won't actually handle PUT or DELETE unless you explicitly write code to make it do so. You can typically configure CF to only support specific HTTP request verbs at the web server.

Re: methods other than GET or POST
Hi Claude, Yes, it is safe to allow only GET and POST verbs. Be aware, limiting yourself to these verb may have unintended consequences, such as when trying execute a remote debugging session against the server (I don't know how many CFers do that). You can limit the verbs via the ISAPI Extensions list in IIS: IIS Manager Right-click the website Properties Home Directory tab Configuration Button Mappings Find .cfm, .cfc and any other extensions that you are worried about for CF Edit Verbs: Limit to ...

Re: CF 8.01 Server Error IO server on server communication
This problem is not just an RDS issue. I've seen this on new installs of CF8, with RDS enabled, and cannot get the browse to work. Simply typing the path to the item works (in my case this was a DSN setup thing). Suspect this may be related to JVM version. For instance, on my localhost @ work, 1.6.0_04 it works fine. At home, 1.6.0_13 (I think), it does not work. Cheers, Kris This error is related to RDS not being enabled on server, apparently can't browse without RDS. Question answered.

Re: methods other than GET or POST
Just a word of warning - PUT will in fact place a file on the webserver if 1) WRITE access is enabled in IIS for the folder and 2) The account used (IUSR_MACHINENAME for anonymous is default) has NTFS permissions to write to the folder. No coding necessary - just add the PUT header, a filename, and some content. I haven't tried with delete, but I assume it's the same way.

The reason I'm a bit surprised at this is that I've used this on literally hundreds of computers, and the only reason it hasn't worked in a Java-enabled browser is RDS.

No coding necessary - just add the PUT header, a filename, and some content. I haven't tried with delete, but I assume it's the same way. Yes, PUT and DELETE are both WebDAV commands, and they'll both run if you've enabled WebDAV (the write access mentioned above) and the user's permissions are appropriate. However, I'm not sure if IIS will process the command at all if it includes a file normally processed by CF. I generally don't use WebDAV, so I've never tested this. I would expect that, if you don't filter the verbs processed by the CF ISAPI extension, CF would accept the PUT request and simply treat it as if it were a GET request. Have you tested this?

Re: methods other than GET or POST
Ah ok, and I enter a list like GET,POST I suppose? Right. But this has to be done for every web site. I finally prefer my solution in a commonApplication.cfm which is included by every site Application.cfm Well, actually, you can do this. If you're using IIS 6 or earlier, you can configure the CF ISAPI mapping in one place if you choose (when you select All when running wsconfig). If you're using IIS 7, you can place entries in applicationHost.config. And, frankly, this is something I'd rather handle at the web server than at the application server, as the web server has a clearly defined way for dealing with HTTP verbs. CF really doesn't, beyond GET and POST, as far as I can tell. All that said, you should be able to do this from CF in Application.cfc/cfm, which could be shared across multiple websites if you choose to set it up that way. Just look at CGI.REQUEST_METHOD. If you don't get that, or CGI.METHOD, you can use GetHttpRequestData to view raw request data.

Re: WebService Axis Issues
Adrian, did you ever solve this issue? I'm seeing a similar problem. From
what I can tell it's an unresolved bug in Apache Axis:
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2758
-Rob
I get the same on CF8 and on Railo I get:
org.xml.sax.SAXException: Deserializing parameter 'GetVersionInfoResponse':
could not find deserializer for type {urn:IWS}GetVersionInfoResponseType
Sorry that's not much help.

Re: (ot) Detect OS and CPU Architecture
Well, windows only runs on Intel, and it states 32/64 bit in the user agent. Linux usually has an architecture in the user agent. OSX is a wildcard, but universal binaries make it no big deal if it's PPC or Intel. But to answer your question, JS is unable to determine it, and more to the point, unable to do anything architecture-specific anyway. cheers, barneyb -- Barney Boisvert bboisv...@gmail.com http://www.barneyb.com/ On Sep 25, 2009, at 6:37 PM, Don L do...@yahoo.com wrote: Hi, Preferably do it with javascript.
