Re: searches failing...help.
> >select id, entered_date, synopsis, knowledge >from nxsknow >where knowledge = '#search_string#' >order by entered_date desc > There's a couple of possibilities that occour to me offhand... 1.) Case sensitivity - if everything in your DB is uppercase, try using where knowledge LIKE '#ucase(search_string)#' 2.) Unless you put in wildcards, using 'LIKE' will ONLY match on an EXACT string; thus: where knowledge = 'foobar' would match 'foobar', but NOT 'boofoobar', 'foobarbaz', 'FOOBAR', etc. If you wildcard with a percent sign, however: where knowledge = 'foobar%' Then the query would match 'foobar' AND 'foobarbaz'. At least, it's a percent sign in Oracle. I seem to recall having seen an asterisk used elsewhere, but I'm not certain. HTH...

You might try using an index loop instead of a query loop, like so: This will replace all 5 of the loops in your current setup. A possible side benefit of this is that it'll create the variables for every row in the current query; of course, this might not be what you want, if your query is actually selecting a couple hundred rows...

Re: Binary integers, IEEE Floating point numbers, and premature baldness.
Thanks for the response, Steve. >What you really need is the IEEE format specification >of the bit patterns. I've looked at the spec; now I'm trying to figure out the best way to make that happen in CF (or if it's possible...), but I thought someone else might have done this already - thus saving me a bit of legwork. :) I did come across a page in which this was implemented in JavaScript - for both 32- and 64-bit hex patterns, no less - so I'm confident it can be done now. It's more a matter of working out the details. (if you're interested, the URL is: http://babbage.cs.qc.edu/courses/cs341/IEEE-754hex32.html) >If you have a lot of this data, I would consider using a simple >VB app to do the transformation. This sort of bit banging in CF >will be CPU intensive, at the very least. That's my primary concern right now - there's not that many numbers that need transformation per data set, but there could eventually be quite a few datasets. If I knew more VB, I'd jump on it; but I just got started with that, and only insofar as building a couple of WDDX Database front-ends (a'la Ben Forta's examples).

Binary integers, IEEE Floating point numbers, and premature baldness.
Here's one for the cadre of real programmers, of whom I'm not a member: I have a string of information - partially binary, partially ASCII - that represents a number of reads from an electric meter. The site name, dates, etc. are stored in ASCII; record length & type designators in 2-byte binary integers; and interval data is stored in 4-byte IEEE floating point. I read this datafile in, using Lewis Sellers' ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) excellent CFX_binaryR tag, and process arrays of the resulting bytes for display based on an ISO-standard datafile format. Problem: Floating point conversion. The ASCII is trivial (#chr(byte)#); and I wrote a custom tag that converts the 2-byte binInts to decimal (anyone interested?) - but the floating-point-to-decimal conversion has me pulling out the remains of my already-endangered hair. Anyone have any pointers on this? CFX tags, formulae, anything? TIA... Brandon Whitaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "It'll get used by the same people using Opera.

Either way, it's still a cool hack. I was inordinately pleased with myself

Re: CF vs. Oracle Application Server
>We are trying to make a determination whether to use Oracle Application >Server or ColdFusion Application Server. >Does anyone know where I can find a comparison (pros/cons) between the >two products? >Any personal comments will also be appreciated. How about 100% personal comments? :) I don't know of any such comparison on the web, as OAS is in a different class than CF and plays to a much more limited audience. In my personal experience, OAS' ability to front-end PL/SQL packages for web work has advantages, but they're outweighed by the inherent inflexibility of the language. I've never had occasion to make use of the Java extensibility of OAS, so I can't comment on that - although I've heard it's a great improvement over PL/SQL. Ditto CORBA. >From a performance standpoint, CF Enterprise certainly runs a lot faster. Much of this may have to do with the fact that our OAS install was on the same machine as the database and the PL/SQL packages it was utilizing, while the CF server was on a different machine communicating via TNS. I suppose that's not really a fair comparison; but then again, lord only knows what Draconian licensing rules Oracle might invoke for a seperate OAS server... On the programming front, ColdFusion tends to be more flexible and forgiving; the learning curve isn't nearly as steep as that of PL/SQL. Around here they are (or were) deeply entrenched in Oracle and didn't bother to explore other options; after some low-key CF evangelizing, I've converted quite a few diehard PL/SQL developers to ColdFusion (at least for web presentation purposes). Support levels are just about identical; most support for CF is found in free forums like CF-Talk or Allaire's (godawful slow) forums, while Oracle support is freely available on the web, in Usenet, etc. CF's documentation is simpler; but then again, CF itself is far more simple than OAS. And not to sound like a shameless sycophant toadie, but Ben Forta's CF manuals are FAR more instructive than the dry, by-the-numbers OAS manuals. If you have to do anything with your local filesystem - read/write files, etc. - CF is far easier to manage. It has simple tags purpose-designed for just that; Oracle has stored procedures that do the same, but they've got that 'kludged' feeling about them... Ditto for other internet protocols (SMTP/POP3/FTP). Oracle has a package with procedures to retrieve HTML remotely, as with , but it's extremely primitive by comparison. Ditto again for scheduling events. Oracle can do it, but grudgingly. (There's only so many times your DBA will make changes to INIT.ORA and restart the server before he begins to get annoyed.) OAS 4.0.8.0 turned me off in a big way when a very basic install turned out to be nearly unmanageable; ORB services wouldn't start as they were supposed to, listeners would go up and down without any apparent cause, etc. Many of these issues were supposed to have been resolved in 4.0.8.1; I'll never know, because I'm not downloading > 100Mb of OAS via an Oracle FTP server that refuses to give xfer rates over 140 BITS per second, whether you're on a T1 or a 56k dialup. (our most reliable Oracle & PL/SQL-based site here *still* runs off of Oracle WebServer 2.0.2 and Oracle 7.3.3) Brandon Whitaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "It'll get used by the same people using Opera.

[...end excerpt...] I'm not sure whether DECODE() is peculiar to Oracle, or whether that's a general SQL thing (the SP code you included in your question wasn't Oracle-ish...); but for the record, the cursor ends up looking something like this: CURSOR testCur(sortBy IN VARCHAR2) IS SELECT fooVal1, fooVal2, fooVal3 FROM fooTable ORDER BY DECODE( sortBy, 'col1',fooVal1, 'col2',fooVal2, 'col3',fooVal3); Thus, passing the cursor 'col1' as a variable orders it by fooVal1, passing 'col2' orders by fooVal2, etc. Being trapped in PL/SQL hell for the last few months, I haven't had the opportunity to play around with the CFStoredProc tag, but one question comes to mind; if you're not returning the columns in the same way every time, could that affect the operation of the tag?

Re: OT: Frames vs NoFrames
>>I use frames when it adds value to the user interface. [snip] >what is your opinion of frames? likes dislikes? [snip] One interesting use I found for frames is that it simplifies forcing a user to view a site (esp. a secure site) under a certain context. For instance: If your frameset (in index.cfm or whatever) is dynamically generated, you can use a function like createUUID() to generate a unique name for your main frame, e.g. Then that UUID can be assigned, either as a client variable or in a cookie, and referenced by every page loaded into that frame from there on out. If the UUID is different, the page isn't being viewed within the proper context. (This is also a good tie back to the use of JS-created cookies in letting CF determine whether JavaScript is enabled on the client browser...JavaScript in the frameset sets a cookie, then ColdFusion in the pages loaded into the frameset check to see whether the cookie exists.) You can also use JavaScript in an individual framed page to ensure that it's being loaded in the frame, rather than as TOP (I'm sure you've seen this before) and reload the site from the root if it's not. Frames are useful for hiding the URL of the current page from the address line; this is useful when you're passing CFID & CFToken in the URL string, as with FuseBox-style apps. This is obviously more of an aesthetic issue than a security issue, as finding the 'real' URL is extremely trivial. Framesets allow you to place an onUnload() handler in the FRAMESET tag which deletes client variables immediately upon exiting the page; this is impossible with a static page, as it would delete the variables every time you navigate to a different page. **DOWNSIDE TO THIS METHOD**: Nut$crape reloads the page whenever the user resizes the window, thus triggering the onUnload() handler in the FRAMESET tag and hammering the client vars. Framesets can contain JavaScript routines and variables that persist throughout the application and can be referenced from any page loaded within the frame, as with Colin Tucker's 'OmenTree' heirarchal navigation app. Frames have their uses. Like almost anything else in HTML, they can also be misused. Some people will never like them; then again, some people still insist that every page should be compatible with Lynx. You'll never please everyone. Brandon Whitaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "It'll get used by the same people using Opera.

Re: Connecting to datasource
>Why? Why does it work fine when I am not connected to the network but fails >when I am? I take it you've already run TNSPING to ensure that you can connect to Oracle correctly, using the same SID specified in the CF datasource, when you're connected to the network? If so, does your network use DHCP? If you're getting a different IP address assigned to you when you connect to the net, that might throw off the TNSNAMES.ORA (if the locations are specified via TCP/IP addy...) I don't know whether either of those are helpful, or even necessarily applicable...from a logical standpoint, though, it just seems as if the root of the problem would be in the way the machine itself is addressed.

I had this same problem myself, Shane...it has to do with the order in which
you specify the styles; if you specify a hover BEFORE the visited, 'visited'
attributes will take precedence over 'hover' attribs.
Try this order and see if it helps:

At this point, I'd tend to agree with you about the likelihood of this hack being exploited to any significant gain; OTOH, there are a lot of people who aren't given much option as to whether cookies are enabled or disabled.

In the past, I've used cookies only for allowing CF to test JavaScript functionality on a user's browser.

Re: Technical Documentation
Erika: >I'm interested in knowing what kind of documentation everyone provides their >clients as well since I'm delivering my first product on Monday morning. >Since no one has replied to this post, I'm wondering if anyone PROVIDES >documentation?? I've normally relied primarily on extensively-commented code; this has worked out well because the clients I've dealt with thus far had a fair degree of technical proficiency (albeit in other languages). This, of course, becomes useless if (a.) you're encrypting your code, or (b.) the client lacks the technical skills required. In my case, the better part of any external documentation that became necessary could be cut-and-paste with minor modifications from the code itself.

Re: Very, Very weird problem
Question...I don't know if this would solve your problem, but have you tried writing both queries into one, rather than performing a query, building a list, then passing the list to the second query? Something like this SELECT Students.ID, Students.Name, Students.email, Courses.IDCourse, Courses.CourseName, SCourses.IDStudent, Scourses.IDcourse FROM Students, Courses, Scourses WHERE Students.ID IN (SELECT DISTINCT IDStudent FROM SCourses WHERE IDCourse IN (#ID#)) AND Scourses.IDStudent = Students.ID AND Scourses.IDCourse = Courses.IDCourse Aside from that, I'm kinda stumped...the weird part is its tendency to stop after 8... Of the student IDs in the list you originally provided, have you tried running the query against each of them individually to make sure they're returning the proper data? (i.e. WHERE Students.ID = #ID#)... Brandon Whitaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "It'll get used by the same people using Opera.

Apparently, an essential part of the CR engine is built into the ColdFusion executables; you use Crystal Reports to design the report, then you embed the path to the report on your hard drive into a CF template (think CFInclude...). The CF Engine executes the report, and returns the output as HTML. Whatever. Personally I fail to see the logic, but I suppose that it would help by allowing non-HTML designers on staff (READ AS: Accounting Wonks Who Don't Know Jack About Tables But Are UTTERLY ANAL About Their Reports) to design the reports as they want them to appear, thus freeing you to do more important things.

I was chomping at the bit to refute this, in the fine tradition of Usenet
Holy Warriors everywhere. Perhaps it's my ever-increasing age, but
something told me to check this out for myself before getting my undies in a
bunch.
For the edification of all, the following is the actual code I used to
perform the test, along with the results.
## loopTest1.cfm ##
SELECT wban, stationname, station_id, state_id, icao_id
FROM w_stations
tick1=getTickCount();
counter = 0;
for (i=1; i LTE testQuery.recordCount; i=i+1) {
if (len(testQuery.icao_id[i]) LT 4) {
counter = counter+1;
}
}
tick2=getTickCount();
finalTick=tick2 - tick1;
#counter##finalTick#
## loopTest2.cfm ##
SELECT wban, stationname, station_id, state_id, icao_id
FROM w_stations
#counter##finalTick#
Final results:
Both loops counted to the proper number, 752.
RUN ONCE:
The cfScript method: 485 milliseconds.
The method: 141 milliseconds.
RUN 10 TIMES:
cfScript method average: 212 milliseconds.
method: 138 milliseconds.
*sigh* live and learn. :)

Re: CFSCRIPT
>Is CFSCRIPT faster than regular coldfusion coding or is it just easier to >write so you can get something done faster? Yes. :) I can't remember exactly where I saw the article (I could've sworn it was in Fusion Authority WNA somewhere, but I couldn't find it this morning), but if I recall correctly, CFScript was faster from a performance standpoint if you were evaluating more than one or two variables in a row using the CFSet method: ... was said to be slower than: foo='bar'; fred='barney'; gargle='blaster' ...and so on and so forth. I use it for as much procedural code as I can; it's got all the looping functions, case/switch functionality, and (to the eye of this long-time Perl junkie), it's a lot cleaner. :) HTH. HAND.

Re: Easiest way to get a text file into a List?
> Lucky you! It is already a list, only it is delimited by carriage returns And since you also asked about arrays, you can do essentially the same thing that Chris specified for lists by using the listToArray function like so: This creates a 1-dimensional array with one line of text per array item. This comes in REAL handy when you're working with comma-separated (CSV) files; you don't want to change the delimiters to a comma in order to maintain the 'column' structure, so you turn it into an array, then evaluate each array item as an individual list. It's a needlessly complex method for what you're trying to accomplish, but it might come in handy later. :) Brandon Whitaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "It'll get used by the same people using Opera.

Re: CFIF Problem with OR
>What is wrong with this statement? > >OR (ID IS NOT "43")> By using 'OR', you're saying it could be any of them, as long as it ain't ALL of them. Obviously it can't ever be all of them, and therefore it will always evaluate true. Try this instead: Brandon Whitaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "It'll get used by the same people using Opera.

Re: linux, oracle8, & date functions
CORRECTION NOTICE. This is what I get for being in a hurry The code I included to use CF & SQL to_date has a problem...the 'mask' in to_date() should read '/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS' The minute designator in my first message, 'MIN', is wrong.

Re: linux, oracle8, & date functions
>what's the proper syntax for putting a date into an oracle database on
>linux? i've already tried #CreateODBCDateTime()# and got an oracle error
>type 911, whatever the heck that means. anybody work with oracle on linux?
Oracle's date/time is just...well, it's different.
Say you've got a CF date/time object...like now(), for instance.
Oracle doesn't know anything about ODBC datesit has its own little thing
going on, using
to_date('date/time','mask')
The date/time is a numeric, as you'd see displayed on a page; i.e.
12/24/1999 14:40; the 'mask' is exactly that, a mask set up using Oracle's
mask identifiers, matching the way your actual date/time value is laid out.
Example: Say you're wanting to put now() into an Oracle database, in a
column named timeColumn.
The obvious answer would be to SET timeColumn=sysdate...but you're a
masochist (or you wouldn't be using Oracle in the first place, like I am.
:) ) So you insist on doing it the hard way.
The following is a nasty amalgam of the CF and Oracle To_Date needed to
accomplish this.
UPDATE myTable
SET timeColumn =
to_Date('#dateFormat(now(),"/MM/DD")#
#timeFormat(now(),"HH:MM:SS")#',
'/MM/DD HH24:MIN:SS')
Note that the mask was laid out in the exact same pattern as the date/time
would appear when produced by the coldFusion tags; including the delimiters
(/ and :) and the space between date and time tags. Note also that Oracle's
date/time masks are LIKE ColdFusion's, but they're not IDENTICAL.
Just for the sake of completeness, here's a list of Oracle's more
commonly-used masks.
MASK = TYPE (EXAMPLE)
DATE FORMATS:
---
MM = Numeric Month (12)
MON = Three-letter abbrev. of month (AUG)
MONTH = Fully spelled-out month (AUGUST)
DDD = Current day of year since Jan. 1 (354)
DD = Current day of month (24)
D = Current day of week (6)
DY = Three-letter abbrev. of day of week (FRI)
DAY = Day fully spelled out (FRIDAY)
= Full four-digit year (2000)
YY = Two-digit year (99)
Y = Last digit of year (9)
TIME FORMATS:
---
HH12 = Hour in 12-hour format (2)
HH24 = Hour in 24-hour format (14)
MI = Minute (30) (NOTE: this one screws up most people)
SS = Second (59)
There are MANY others, all of which you can find in yer Oracle docs. I just
didn't feel like typing 'em all in (four-digit year from ISO standard?
pleez...).
HTH. HAND.
