Re: Adobe drops Flsh for mobile devices
What I always find most annoying about this topic when it comes up is the basis on what such claims are made, usually the person saying ColdFusion is dead/dying has absolutely no evidence or research to back this up, it is just their own opinion. In order to have basis for such a claim you would need to be working in a business that deals with ColdFusion in such a way that you are aware of the number of people using ColdFusion and new customers enquiring about ColdFusion. Just being a developer and using cf-talk doesn't really fall into that category. As I run a cfcommunity and work for a cf hosting co I do see how many new users/customers come and go from those 2 perspectives, so I can give some real world feedback on that and what I can say is that things are pretty quiet on both fronts, not much new user activity, so things are pretty stagnant. We have also noticed recently that quite a few hosts are dropping support for CF as we have been getting a lot of their cast off's. We have also noticed an increased number of customers migrating to PHP, which mainly seems to be down to they have been told by someone else that CF is dead or because they wanted to use Wordpress. Sure the community seems a bit dead these days, but this in itself does not speak for ColdFusion. It could simply mean there are not many new developers coming into the world of CF or those that are have not joined CF-TALK or do not want to because they don't like communities. Many folks don't join lists like this because they don't want to get attacked by trolls and flame baiter's and shot down by so called GURU's for the way they code. If I was a newbie to CF and joined this list, i'd probably un-subscribe a week later and I bet a lot of the old members have gone for the same reasons. As for there being no resources for newbies, here are a few I know off the top of my head. 1. livedocs.adobe.com Plenty of good stuff right here in the docs for newbies 2. www.easycfm.com 3. The Adobe CF forums 4. www.cfmldeveloper.com 5. www.sitepoint.com - e.g http://www.sitepoint.com/cold-fusion-tutorial/ ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348635 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

You are very passive aggressive dude.

Because I have a spell-checker. Childish. Perhaps I'm being ungenerous, but that kind of response from you indicates to me that you don't take this seriously enough to engage your brain cells and actually read what was written. More childish attack. Which, you know, kind of makes you look like a trool after all, if you know what I mean. Even more childish. Anyway, to give you the benefit of the doubt, here's an executive summary of what I wrote, paragraph by paragraph. 1. CFLib belongs to Ray. That doesn't mean he can't get help from the *assumed* CF community. He is alone because the small community does not have new blood. New blood carries the torch and keeps things moving. The 'old-timers' are too busy discussing OOP concepts -which is their right. The problem is that the lack on new blood will eventually kill CF - and that's the simple point I make. 2. Why are new tutorials needed, since CF's basic functionality hasn't changed significantly? A cursory glance at how things stand today will show any objective observer that a lot of those resources are obsolete, in need of re-vamping (lots of new features have been introduced) or were deleted a long time ago. 3. There are plenty of beginner and intermediate questions on the list. But how many lists are there? And how many questions in this list? In fact, it could be argued that this list is perfect example of a stagnant community. 4. People blog about their interests, not solely for promotional reasons. Once again, I'm not holding the small CF community responsible for anything. Strawman argument. 5. CF is a successful product. That doesn't mean it is not dying slowly. Strawman argument. 6. The CF community is not composed solely of Adobe employees. You love your straw man, don't you? 7. Your behavior looks like trolling, even if you're not a troll. More childish stuff. 8. If you want more evangelism, be an evangelist. Strawman argument. I never said I wanted more 'evangelism. So, out of those, there's one paragraph that mentions trolling, and states you may well not be a troll. Given your apparent level of reading comprehension, you might want to read these things more slowly and carefully. More childish, dishonest attack - but it seems the norm with you. In any case, why 10 years? Because people have been posting this crap here for ten years already. They were posting it when CF was called Allaire Cold Fusion. The way things are going, the ten years may not be necessary. But only time will tell. Hope you're right, though. I hope Coldfusion remains a valid option for many years to come. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348636 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

cfajax error
I was tasked in moving an old app on a CF8 server to a CF7 server. The app has some cfajax code that I'm not familiar with. I'm hoping someone here has seen the error.. This is most of an email I sent internally to the person who created in a few years back but thought I'd also ask a larger crowd The error message is a javascript popup and all it shows is: *The page at localhost:8300 says: * SyntaxError: Unexpected token This happens whenever you hit Save on the time_off page (when requesting Time Off). I've added some alerts in the code: DWRUtil.useLoadingMessage(Checking for duplicate request...); //alert(oForm.employee_id.value); //alert(oForm.time_off_start_date.value); //alert(oForm.time_off_end_date.value); DWREngine._execute(_ajaxConfig._cfscriptLocation, null, 'getEmployeeTimeOff', oForm.employee_id.value, oForm.time_off_start_date.value, oForm.time_off_end_date.value, true, handleTimeOffDuplicateCheck); //alert(getEmployeeTimeOff); And all of the alerts go off, including the getEmployeeTimeOff alert. I put an alert at the top of the handleTimeOffDuplicateCheck and it doesn't run. So it's not even making it to that function. I thought maybe it's in that CF function getEmployeeTimeOff so I changed it to static values.. SELECT tt.date_taken, Format(tt.date_taken,'mm/dd/') as text_date_taken, month(tt.date_taken) as date_taken_month, tt.time_off_id, toff.descr as time_off_descr FROM time_taken tt INNER JOIN time_off toff ON toff.time_off_id = tt.time_off_id WHERE tt.employee_id = 'e0012345' AND tt.deletedon is null AND tt.date_taken = 11/11/2011 AND tt.date_taken = 11/11/2011 ORDER BY tt.date_taken which runs in Access and returns 0 rows.. But when I try to add Time Off, same Syntax error. Then I put quotes around the dates knowing this is wrong and should give a DB error.. and it does! Javascript error about types. So it makes it to the CF function, that I assume THAT even works, and then something happens coming back but where? The alert in the Javascript function that should run on return, doesn't run.. but if you throw in an error in the query, it errors.. In Chrome, I do see a couple JavaScript errors: When choosing the person in the drop down it errors: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'checked' of undefined Which doesn't seem to affect anything.. it's still returns the employee. The element it's referring to would only be there if you're an admin. The error that bothers me is when you hit Save, it errors with: Refused to set unsafe header Referer but it makes it to CF fine, just not back.. I googled that yesterday and nothing stood out. I'm at my wits end and I don't know where else to look in the code. Was something anything that had to be installed on the system? Anything you guys can recommend, suggest, remember.. would be helpful. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348639 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: cfajax error
Hmm the only error Firebug shows is the same oForm.auto_approve is indefined.. The problem with Ajax is when there is an error in the template called by the function. This causes an error in the application because it cannot find what is expected in the text returned by the template. Instead, the CF error output is returned. What you need to see is the error displayed by the CF server, not the error that this display caused. The solution is to debug the template by simulating the Ajax call and calling it directly by hand. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348645 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Adobe drops Flsh for mobile devices
True, but I see almost no empathy when people are expressing broader issue concerns rather than issues of a technical nature. Therein lies the clue to the correct response. You want empathy? Go to a shrink or talk to your bartender. On a free mailing list, the correct response is the one you get, not the one you want. And these broader issue concerns typically don't have any positive resolution, have been brought up countless times, etc, etc. Saying CF is dying on a CF technical list isn't really an appropriate statement for the list. And of course, it always turns out that CF is dying because you don't like what Adobe is doing with it, which is beyond the control of everyone on the list - whether you agree with it or not. You know, I think it would actually be OK if someone asked how to help CF, but that's never what these concerns are about. It's all about your dislike for Adobe's marketing plan, or pricing, or whatever. Well, this is not the place for that. Sometimes the technician, sometimes the counselor. No one pays me to be a counselor. On here, no one pays me to be a technician either, so I reserve the right to answer questions as I see fit.

Re: cfajax error
dateformat(foodate,'mm/dd/') Here is your problem: use CeateODBCDateFormat instead: #CeateODBCDateFormat(foodate)# Also #CeateODBCDateFormat(now())# Furthermore, this will work provided foodate always contains a valid date. If it is empty, it will cause an error. In this case, you have to check if foodate is a date, return CreateODBCDate if yes, and null if not. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348657 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: cfajax error
Have you tried to quote the last item in the values list (the year)?
Depending on how that is defined in the database, it may require quotes.
Instead of:
#year(foodate)#
Try:
'#year(foodate)#'

RE: Adobe drops Flsh for mobile devices
No, I think you are probably just unable or unwilling to allow people to vent. You probably don't do it personally very often and despise people who do. Steve Jobs was that way, and his employees are better off now that he's dead. They admired his work, but hated him personally. He'd rather run over a person with his car than show empathy towards another human being. He was a great technician, but a terrible human being. He believed that the only correct response was the one he gave, and he always reserved the right to answer questions the way he saw fit, whether it was destroying another human being or not. Too bad he never grew up to see more important issues in life, as has Bill Gates, who now spends a lot of time and money trying to make the world a better place and enable the people in it to live a better life. One can be a technician and a counselor at the same time; it just takes more maturity than most people can develop in a lifetime. -Original Message- From: Dave Watts [mailto:dwa...@figleaf.com] Sent: Friday, November 11, 2011 1:06 PM To: cf-talk Subject: Re: Adobe drops Flsh for mobile devices True, but I see almost no empathy when people are expressing broader issue concerns rather than issues of a technical nature.

you can use the ODBC socket option instead, if you google then you should be able to find some examples.

Re: Adobe drops Flsh for mobile devices
I don't know, Wil, I think that the topic of tone and tenor of responses to mailing lists (empathy vs correctness in Rick's terminology) is an excellent discussion for a community to have. In general, I agree with Rick that empathy is a very positive trait to bring to the table (in all aspects of life) and that sometimes being correct or right can end up with you being viewed as a jerk. However, in this particular case, I disagree that anyone was not treating Irvin with empathy. Several people, myself included, agreed with the empathetic part...that we wish Adobe would spend more time and money promoting CF. Where the disagreement was was in the area of whether CF is dying, what that means, how it should be viewed. At first this was done with respect, by and large, which is surprising since this topic comes up with regularity. Then Irvin came back with bones to pick and decided that Dave was putting up straw man arguments (which was untrue) and perhaps that I didn't like him (which was true by the end of the conversation but I tried not to let that affect my answers). I think that empathy is important and the empathetic reaction to CF is dying! is the one that was given here: It is not dying in a sudden and unreasonable fashion, don't panic. Take the skills that you've learned here and learn other languages. This will not only enhance your ability to find work in the future, it will make you a better CF programmer today and a more well rounded person in general. If the sort of empathy that Rick is looking for is more of the I need to rant about something and have everyone just kinda nod and let it go, then I'd suggest cf-community as a better suited venue. I do think that looking at civility, empathy and tenor of responses on a list is a good subject to muse upon though.

RE: cfajax error
Seems like, many years ago when I worked with Access,
I had to use something like #dateFormat(parseDateTime(myDate), 'mmm d,
')#
or maybe just #dateFormat(parseDate(myDate), 'mmm d, ')# to get Access
to accept even properly formatted dates.
I can't find any of the old code just now, but maybe this will help.
I'll see if I have any old code in a site or perhaps some test code
that I used before.
I feel certain that the parsing was part of what made it work.
Sorry I can't be more specific!
hth,
Rick

Have you tried to quote the last item in the values list (the year)?
Depending on how that is defined in the database, it may require quotes.
Instead of:
#year(foodate)#
Try:
'#year(foodate)#'

Re: cfajax error
Rick - The odbc date format should be fine. I am pretty sure the column named Year is the problem. It is a reserved word. -Leigh ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348689 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: cfajax error
Yes... seems those reserved words were a problem to always watch out for in Access. -Original Message- From: Leigh [mailto:cfsearch...@yahoo.com] Sent: Friday, November 11, 2011 9:11 PM To: cf-talk Subject: Re: cfajax error Rick - The odbc date format should be fine.

How to respond to a job thread?
Pardon my ignorance. I'd like to respond to a CF developer looking for contract work in the CF-Jobs list. But I was not a mailing list subscriber at the time of the post. How can I contact that person? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348691 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
