Re: is there a safe way to save an object/cfc loaded into the app scope into the session scope?
Ah right, ok. So a follow up question: If I load CFC's into my application scope using create object, should they only contain methods and not properties, as any properties altered by one user would affect all other users accessing the cfc? Additionally, once you've instantiated a copy into the application scope, is their any way to instantiate a new copy from that copy, as CreateObject function seems to want the name of the CFC as oppossed to the actual cfc and what is loaded into application scope is the entire cfc object (without any kind of name string)? Sorry for all the n00b questions but I am still trying to wrap my head around OOP. I used to just access everything via application[property_name] now it seems I am creating new copies of it for every user request. Seems like a lot of extra memory being hogged, but encapsulation is a good thing, right??? ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: is there a safe way to save an object/cfc loaded into the app scope into the session scope?
You are right, any properties you alter in an application scoped object will be set for all users. If you need a copy for every user, the application scope is the wrong place. The session scope is a per-user scope. Try the Duplicate() function to get a copy from an instantiated object. YMMV. mxAjax / CFAjax docs and other useful articles: http://www.bifrost.com.au/blog/ On 19 February 2010 16:25, crippe crippe crippe...@hotmail.com wrote: Ah right, ok.

Re: is there a safe way to save an object/cfc loaded into the app scope into the session scope?
If I load CFC's into my application scope using create object, should they only contain methods and not properties, as any properties altered by one user would affect all other users accessing the cfc? Not neccessarily, no. There are plenty of objects that might belong in the application scope that have properties as well as methods. For example, there is a last.fm API that requires an application key and secret key to access it. If you were to create a CFC to wrap that API, 'lastFmApiService.cfc' for example, you would want to pass your application key and secret credentials when you create an instance of the object. The app and secret keys would be properties and these would remain constant throughout the life of the application. These kind of objects are known as 'Singletons' (its a slight misuse of the term, but close enough). A Singleton would be a cfc that has a single instance per application, i.e. sit in the application scope. A non-singleton would have disposable instances that are created ad-hoc, perhaps per request or per session. Identifying your singletons and non-singletons may be a useful excersize and once done, would be a good primer to start looking at ColdSpring (for managing your singletons). Using onApplicationStart however, is a sound way to go. HTH Dominic On 19 February 2010 08:25, crippe crippe crippe...@hotmail.com wrote: Ah right, ok.

But I just want to explore options. So I can encrypt in cf with aes, or in sql server with a certificate and triple des symmetric key, or both cf AND sql server. What is the best choice? What is required for PCI compliance? Also, if I encrypt in sql server with a certificate and key, if I back up the live server and restore locally, will the data be accessible? Are the certificates and keys movable? The ONLY reason you would need to store the credit card, is if you are going to move to a new merchant / payment gateway in the future and you run a subscription service requiring members to make regularly scheduled payments, and even then The main issue with storing the credit card data is, you can't store the CAV2 / CVC2 / CVV2 / CID Codes... If you want to thwart fraudulent transactions, you are most likely going to validate against the card holders address and the CVV2 code. What else would you need to do with the card? Without the CVV2 code, you could have issues creating additional transactions against the card unless you tell your gateway not to require it BUT that's an all or nothing setting at the gateway level so if you say no, all transactions will go through. This is why I love Authorize.Net's CIM processing. http://www.authorize.net/solutions/merchantsolutions/merchantservices/cim/ Each customer is setup at authorize.net with a profile and that includes their payment information. In the future if we need to charge the card, we just send a transaction against that customers payment profile at authorize.net I don't need to store the credit card and the website is in PCI compliance off the get go. Well of course this includes your standard ssl and all that stuff cfqueryparams and things to keep your application safe as a whole. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: RE: Where to encrypt - cf or db or both?
However, I do not feel walk away from the client is necessarily the right answer here or very constructive. I mean - cripes - can't we just explore it from an academic perspective?? What if I want to store something else as securely as credit card data. Like a cookie recipe. Then you should ask about how to store data securely, and clearly itemize the threat profile that describes the security concerns you have. How do I store data securely by itself isn't a very useful question unless you can also clearly describe who should and shouldn't be able to access this data, how they should be able to access it, the order of likelihood of different security problems occurring (internal vs external unauthorized users, for example), etc, etc, etc. Someone mentions CC's or SSN's and everyone freaks out and tells you to call their lawyer. Well - ok - that's all fine and dandy - point taken - let's move on - that kind of talk doesn't really address the honest question of - - How could you Actually do it responsibly? You can't do it responsibly, without expending a huge amount of resources. That's the point. The costs are too high, and the risk of exposure is too high, for SMBs to be in the business of payment processing. In the same vein, imagine that you'd asked how to do internet search like Google does, and that someone could tell you the exact algorithm used by Google for search. Well, that would be interesting, but it wouldn't get you where you need to go - you'd need massive infrastructure, bandwith, parallelization capability, etc. From what I gather so far, the steps may be: 1) Make sure the connection is SSL (Obviously) The connection between whom? The user and the public-facing website taking payment information? Sure. What about between that website and the database, and between that website and the bank? A) Is there a way to verify the connection is secure (or that the SSL hasn't expired?) You can configure a web server to require SSL connectivity. It's the server administrator's job to make sure that server certificates haven't expired, so I'm not sure what you're getting at there, but if a certificate has expired end-users will typically get a message telling them that the certificate isn't valid. 2) Save the Cookie Recipe in a DB (at the Final Step of Processing) A) Encrypted with above industry standards (TBD?) There are plenty of industry-standard PKI algorithms. CF supports them. Again, the problem is key management. If the public-facing website has the ability to encrypt the data, it'll need one key. Who'll decrypt the data? Are you going to put that key on the same website? If so, then if the website has a vulnerability that someone can attack, they can get both keys, and you're done - it doesn't matter how strong the encryption is. B) Data possibly broken into two parts (maybe separate tables as well?) C) Encryption Key is stored separately - Not on web server - or DB Server (Other comp on same Network? Other DB on the same server??) So the question is Where? How? How does a public/private key system work? (User has to type in a key each time they view data? Could the key be a static thing only the Company Admin knows? Like an additional password the need to see the recipe??) What if the key lived on a separate web server at a different location - could you call the key in real time with an SSL http call for encryption??? Again, this goes back to the threat profiles you've documented (you've done that, right?) The underlying problem is key management. Who can encrypt? Who can decrypt? Typically, you wouldn't want both operations to be possible from the same place, so the key used to encrypt (which pretty much has to be on the public-facing website) can't be on the same server as the key used to decrypt. Also, it shouldn't be possible for you to fetch one key to the other server, as if that's possible the keys are effectively both accessible from a single place again. Also, within an organization, you'd want to strictly control who can see what data. Organizations complying with PCI-DSS typically don't have a company admin who can get access to everything, because, well, that person could get access to everything. So even within the organization, key management can be an issue. Should database administrators have access to private data? Network administrators? Perhaps, you want an environment where accessing specific pieces of data requires multiple people working in concert - each might have half of a key, for example.

RE: jquery find/replace on an entire body DOM
It sounds like you're talking about jQuery manipulating jQuery code?
Onclicks created by jQuery are assigned after the DOM is loaded, and
wouldn't be found in the rendered HTML code. If the action attribute of the
form is abc.xyz in HTML, and then you run your code to make it
abc.xyz?something=else, you'd have to reassign your click handlers.
What I'd do is to create a function which encapsulates the form click
handler assignments, and call that after your below jQuery code like so:
$(document).ready(function() {
var regexp = /action=([a-zA-Z]+\.[a-zA-Z]+)/;
var value = $(form).attr('action');
var replaced = value.replace(regexp,'action=$1cte=thompson');
$(form).attr('action',replaced);
assignClickHandlers();
});

Anything you could do to make jQuery have to do less work will be
beneficial.
Andy,
This works great for form actions. I've played around with doing the exact
same thing for any inputs with onclick attributes. But JQ doesn't seem to
select up the value of the onclick. Do you have any ideas?
Here's the form one that works.
$(document).ready(function() {
var regexp = /action=([a-zA-Z]+\.[a-zA-Z]+)/;
var value = $(form).attr('action');
var replaced = value.replace(regexp,'action=$1cte=thompson');
$(form).attr('action',replaced);
});
Thanks!
Will

Using CFHTTP to access a website

Re: CF8/Vista 64 debug output not showing up
Not sure where my earlier reply to this went, but the list (online at least) was being a little wonky yesterday so I'll try again... I wonder if you have the right check boxes checked (They are different between the 2). In CF7 it's enable debugging but in CF 8 It says enable request debugging output - and I would also choose the classic template because the dockable one can be blocked by a popup blocker (I think). Hi Mark, yeah those are the settings I use (although I did try various other options to try and get it working). I finally just decided to try rolling back my system a couple weeks and that seems to have cleared up whatever was blocking it! Weird, huh? I guess I should be running my development environment on a separate partition, just to prevent that kind of issue.

RE: Problems with JQUERY in IE 8
Are there any types of J/S errors making themselves known in IE8?
I've seen this type of behavior in the past, and usually it comes down to being
something such as a comma being out of place or other little syntax error that
FF knows how to handle but IE doesn't.

Re: jquery find/replace on an entire body DOM
It sounds like you're talking about jQuery manipulating jQuery code?
Not in these cases. This is some legacy JS in our onclicks.They must remain,
but they contain mappings that I need to do the exact same thing we did realier
in the form action. The code to be manipulated looks somethin like this:
input...onclick=switchActionSubmit('someController.someMapping')
I need to grab that someController.someMapping part, just like the form action.
I've tried different things, but JQ isn't grabbing it up so I can maniuplate
it.
Thanks for your help!

I don't have time to test this myself, unfortunately, so I'll just give you the advice that I'd use to solve the problem myself. Visit the site in a browser, and use a sniffer to see exactly what gets sent and received. I use Wireshark for this sort of thing, but there are many (easier-to-use) alternatives. Then, within your CF code, emulate everything the browser is doing. Use your sniffer again to see exactly what's being sent, then change your code accordingly.

CFHTTP can access anything a browser on the same machine can access, ... except if the site checks if the IP address requested the form before it receives the action request. In this case, one should at least request the form page first. As mentioned previously, the form will have to be fetched anyway because it's an ASP.NET application that uses VIEWSTATE. So, the action page is going to need to read whatever value was set in the script that generated the form.

trouble using METHODS, specifically this one:
WG.FontHeading1('Script', 1,0, 0, 0, 0)

Serious, intermittent problem with CF Web Service
Howdy, CFers! We've got an incredibly frustrating situation with a CF Web Services-based API that we wrote and maintain. We had an API in place for years that was stable and working happily with Ruby, PHP, and ColdFusion clients. Then this year a .NET client came along, and we found that our web service was not interoperable with statically-typed languages due to our extensive use of structs. We eventually realized we had to re-write the API without structs, and we've done so. It now uses scaler values, arrays, and CFCs (which get translated to SOAP complexTypes). The .NET client is happy, and we wrote proof-of-concept clients in about 6 different languages to ensure that we'd be interoperable this time around. To our great dismay, it appears that our ColdFusion 7 servers can't serve the new API reliably. It works for about a day or so after restarting, then the clients start getting errors like: Error: coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException [java.lang.ClassNotFoundException : tafkan.remote_api.pfapi.v.trunk.rsp_pf_survey_status_array] and java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: tafkan/remote_api/pfapi/v/trunk/pf_unit Restarting the CF instances is the only way to make the problem go away. A lot of time and money was put into rebuilding the API, so everyone is really at wit's end about this. We've noticed that the WEB-INF/cfc-skeletons directories of our CF instances eventually seem to have two copies of the classes for each of the CFCs used by the API. For example: -rw-r--r-- Feb 17 09:15 remote_api.pfapi.v.trunk.pf_datum.class -rw-r--r-- Feb 3 12:20 tafkan.remote_api.pfapi.v.trunk.pf_datum.class It seems like the errors are coming from a namespace or class search path problem, so we tried switching all CFC references to be fully-qualified (dot notation starting with a mapping) instead of just simple references to CFCs in the current directory. This seemed promising, but the problem came back within 24 hours. Environment: ColdFusion 7,0,2,142559 with hf702-70523, 2-instance cluster Sun Java 1.4.2_13 Apache 2.0.52 Centos 4.5 32-bit Maybe upgrading one of these venerable pieces of software would help? Maybe upgrading just AXIS? We need help! I'm sure that there is someone out there with more CF/AXIS/SOAP experience than us that can help us get this problem resolved. Adobe support doesn't seem to be an option, as CF7 is EOL'ed and in extended-extended support (and that just for a few more days). We will pay the right person good money to help us figure this out. If you're that person, or think you might know who they are, please contact me ASAP! Thanks for reading this mega-post! Leon ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: jquery find/replace on an entire body DOM
It sounds like you're talking about jQuery manipulating jQuery code?
Andy, this seems to do the trick with grabbing my input code string.
var htmlStr = $(':input').append($(':input').clone()).remove().html();
Thanks,
Will

(ot) Google Analytics
Hey all, I'm helping run a large web site that hosts many sites using virtual domains. Each site is different though built on the same file structure. Users can choose templates, they build their own content, etc. Users often put google analytics code on their own sites, but we don't do any overall analytics beyond what Alexa.com knows about us, and knowing that we average about 830,000 coldfusion requests per day (and god only knows how many requests for images, css, js files, etc) I couldn't find this answer easily on the google web site, but I'm wondering if I can put google analytics for us on every page and have google analyze the site as one - without messing up the end-users who are also monitoring their own individual sites? Ie, some pages would have two sets of google analytics code. Thanks. Rick ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Problems with JQUERY in IE 8
Can I ask why you'd set returnType to JSON and then go to the trouble of
building a string instead of letting the CFC do the work and actually return
the JSON from your data?
mxAjax / CFAjax docs and other useful articles:

Validating that only .5 decimal gets through?
I have an app that I need to validate that they enter either whole numbers (1,2,3, etc.) or if they DO enter a decimal, it can only be in half increments, so 2.5 is okay, but not 2.1, 2.2, 2.25, etc. Of course, 2.0 would be okay too, so .0 after the number is fine. Is there a good way to check that with Regex rather than parsing the string and checking that the value after the period is a 5 or a 0?

multiple by 2, and check if it is a whole number?

Re: Validating that only .5 decimal gets through?
I like Jerry's answer but this works too cfset numbers = 1, 2, 3, 4, 1.5, 1.2, 1.6, 2.5, 7.0, 6.50, 6.32, 2.25 / cfloop list=#numbers# index=i cfoutput#i# /cfoutput cfif (i - int(i) eq 0) or (i - int(i) eq .5) works cfelse no workie /cfif br / /cfloop so basically you're subtracting the integer value from the value and if the remainder equals 0 or .5 then it succeeds.. if not then fails On Sat, Feb 20, 2010 at 12:46 AM, Jerry Johnson jmi...@gmail.com wrote: multiple by 2, and check if it is a whole number?

cfset isValid = (n * 10) mod 5 eq 0 That works unless you try something like 2.05 cfset isValid = (2.05 * 10) mod 5 eq 0 cfoutputisValid : #isValid#/cfoutput isValid : YES but should fail On Sat, Feb 20, 2010 at 1:28 AM, Kevan Stannard ke...@stannard.net.au wrote: This might do: cfset isValid = (n * 10) mod 5 eq 0 On 20 February 2010 17:41, Marie Taylore mt4yl...@yahoo.com wrote: I have an app that I need to validate that they enter either whole numbers (1,2,3, etc.) or if they DO enter a decimal, it can only be in half increments, so 2.5 is okay, but not 2.1, 2.2, 2.25, etc. Of course, 2.0 would be okay too, so .0 after the number is fine.
