That's exactally what happened.  Others built their own versions of One
Click shopping, but Amazon sued and won!  So, now, if I understand
correctly, nobody can have One Click shopping without licensing the
concept from Amazon.  Others pitch in here if this is not the case.

OT - 10 kinds of people

2002-09-10 Thread Dave Hannum

There are 10 kinds of people in the world:
Those who understand binary... and those who don't.

OK- blast me, but I thought this was cute.  Someone sent this to me and I
didn't want to go to all the overhead of subscribing to CF-Community JUST to
put this out to the group.

Re: programmer vs. developer

2002-08-28 Thread Dave Hannum

If you write applications, what's the difference (in the end) if it's done
in Java or CF?  Technically, here at Ohio University, my title is Web
Analyst/Programmer.  But I always describe myself as a web applications
developer, because most of what I do is developing applications (programs)
to utilize mainframe/legacy systems.  But instead of being a desktop fat
client application, they are web/browser based thin client applications.
Cost of ownership is much less than running around all over campus to update
software on the client workstations.  I'm with you Michael, I don't agree
with MM's take on this.

Re: application.cfm in templates directory?

2002-08-27 Thread Dave Hannum

No.  An Application.cfm template won't be executed against an include if the
include is called into a different directory.  Because (you might say) an
include is actually written into the cf script at the point it is included.
It's not executed in the directory it resided.

CFX_Image Issues

2002-08-22 Thread Dave Hannum

I'm attempting to use CFX_Image to resize photos of students.  I use the
CFDIRECTORY tag to get the names of the 28,000+ full size images, then I
loop through them and resize them to thumbnails.  I've only tested this in
lots of 500 so far, but it never works.  Anywhere from 17 - 25 thumbnails
will process (very quickly), but then the page finishes loading and the
process stops.  What are the limitations with the CFX_Image tag?  CF 5.0 on
Win2K - dual P-3 933MHz w/2GIG RAM.

Hi,

I have been asked to investigate the possibility of adding the functionality
of an on_close survey to all our sites.  It would be a generic survey across
them all.

This should behave as follows.

1) activate when the user leaves the domain - i.e. clicks some where else.
2) activate when the user closes the site down.

How easy is this to achieve?  Obviously the onClose is pretty
straightforward but what about the domain etc Any ideas/thoughts.

How long would it take to implement this(1 hour, 2 hoursetc...?)?

Re: salary...

2002-08-15 Thread Dave Hannum

Hi ya Buddy,

A few of things.
First, this is a topic that has indeed been discussed time and time and
time again right here on this list.  So, it might answer your questions to
go to the archives and take a gander.  I bet you'll find your answers there.
Second, some folks are very adamant about off topic discussions not
being on this list . . .  that is until there is one that they're
participating in, then they forget all objections to off topic stuff.
Third, just preface your off topic subject with OT: (no quotes).  This
helps provide opportunity for folks to filter your post.

Personally, I don't have a major problem with the off topic stuff.  Man, the
posts about MM/Allaire merger went on FOREVER and then the MX pricing
discussions and then the Is MM Sinking type discussions.  OT stuff goes on
here all the time, so don't sweat it.  Michael will chime in if it gets too
wacky . . . that is unless he's real involved in the conversation too! 8-)
Then even he gets a little carried away.  But that's all right.  We're all a
bunch of interesting folks with interesting views and this is a great
community!

Have a good day and don't let the sour pusses get to ya,
Dave

 And also for guys like me who have been in the biz for a while to know if

Re: Automated FTP

Not sure what SQL server has to do with your FTP issue, but you can use
CFEXECUTE to do your ftp work.

Not sure what all arguments you'd need - depends on your setup.  I assume
you're running CF on the initiating server?

CFEXECUTE
 NAME=C:\WINNT\system32\ftp.exe
 ARGUMENTS=-s:c:\directory\to\FTP\Commands
/CFEXECUTE

yup.

I went to http://news.bbc.co.uk/ticker/ticker.13800.stm and could get the

But you'd need the java applet to replicate for NS.

This could be done in Flash MX and fed by CF or XML.  Then you'd need only
one version, instead of a version for NS and IE too.

 If someone asks a question on the list and another person thinks it to
simple, that other person has 3 choices; either answer it, point the
questioner to the place where the answer is or not post at all. People
should not be afraid to post their questions because they feel that someone
will flame them or their question will be silly or simple. This is a list
for all.
 If the behavior of flaming simple, common or any other question continues,
I'm going to be forced to assign homework to the flamer.
 If your so good at this that you can bash someone else for asking the
question, then you have to write up a short FAQ to answer the question. I
think that if enough of these FAQs are written then maybe it'll cut down on
what some feel are easy or silly questions. I can't do this alone until

 It awfully presumptuous for people who to suggest who Macromedia should
 hire. Further, it seems ridiculous to ask for a job with Macromedia like
 was just done. Macromedia already has an evangelist (Ben Forta) and a
 community manager (Vernon Viehe). If you don't like them or what they do
 that is one issue, but suggestion they hire someone else is simply not
 the way to approach it.

 Michael, if you really want to make a living working for the ColdFusion
 community I suggest you either apply for a job with Macromedia through
 the normal channels or better yet; start your own ColdFusion community
 portal. If you make it the number one spot for ColdFusion developers to
 go then I am sure you will be able to find plenty of ad revenue from
 companies like Macromedia.

 Subject: Re: (Admin) Behavior

 I didn't ask for a job, I was jokingly suggesting it and it went on
from
 there. If I really wanted a job with MM, I would have offered to move
to
 the west coast to take the community managers position when it was
being
 filled. I'm quite happy here.
 Now for the fact. I do make a living in ColdFusion. It's what I do and
 have been doing for the last 7 years. I also support my community with
the
 lists and other features. I'd love to do a lot more but can't due to
the
 time and money issues. A consultant has to deal with this reality. If
I
 could find a solid company who would put up with me servicing the
 community or even profit from it, I would. It's just not the right
climate
 now.

  It awfully presumptuous for people who to suggest who Macromedia
should
  hire. Further, it seems ridiculous to ask for a job with Macromedia
like
  was just done. Macromedia already has an evangelist (Ben Forta) and
a
  community manager (Vernon Viehe). If you don't like them or what
they do
  that is one issue, but suggestion they hire someone else is simply
not
  the way to approach it.
 
  Michael, if you really want to make a living working for the
ColdFusion
  community I suggest you either apply for a job with Macromedia
through
  the normal channels or better yet; start your own ColdFusion
community
  portal. If you make it the number one spot for ColdFusion developers
to
  go then I am sure you will be able to find plenty of ad revenue from
  companies like Macromedia.

It's difficult to make a judgement yet since they've only come out with one
issue so far and they've yet to come out with a print issue.  I believe the
first issue is available for free on their website in pdf format.  They sent
an e-mail out last week saying that the first print issue will be available
in early August.  It looks promising, but it does seem like a lot of ground

Re: Aggregating server side form validation messages

2002-07-01 Thread Dave Hannum

Mark,

The only way I know to do this is to use a CFPARAM for each expected
variable, with a defult of null.  You could do this dynamically using an
index loop with a variable set in your application.cfm file that tells it
how many to look for. Then, when you change your form, you only need adjust
the value in your application.cfm file to fix your app.  Then, on the server
side, loop through the passed form fields, and reset the value of the var if
a value is found.  Then, append name of the null value forms to your val
variable in your CFLOCATION.

Subject: Aggregating server side form validation messages


I'm doing both client side (JS) and server-side form validation.
Typically in JS Client side, if there are a number of required fields
not filled in by the user, upon submit, a single popup alert occurs
listing all the fields that need to be filled in.

I want to do this same process with server side (using CFM) as well.  In
other words, using a first name field as an example, I'd like to replace
the CFLOCATION statements in each check group (I could wind up with 30
checks on the various field) with something that will remember the
#val# number and then lump them all one CFLOCATION statement at the end
of the validation routine, such as:

CFLOCATION
URL=#REQUEST.webroot##REQUEST.Ssubwebroot#/default.cfm?pID=#URL.pID#va
l=19a, 19b, etc. ADDTOKEN=No

The val= appendage would be dynamic, only having those values which did
not pass the server-side validation.

How would I accomplish something like this?

==

!--- First Name ---
!--- Check that the field is required, 19a ---
CFLOCK SCOPE=SESSION TIMEOUT=10 TYPE=READONLY
CFIF SESSION.ecom.firstname IS 
CFLOCATION
URL=#REQUEST.webroot##REQUEST.Ssubwebroot#/default.cfm?pID=#URL.pID#va
l=19a ADDTOKEN=No
/CFIF
/CFLOCK

!--- Check that the field has only alphabetical
characters, 19b ---
CFLOCK SCOPE=SESSION TIMEOUT=10 TYPE=READONLY
CFSET VARIABLES.testFirstName =
#IsAlphabet(SESSION.ecom.firstname)#
/CFLOCK
CFIF VARIABLES.testFirstName IS No
CFLOCATION
URL=#REQUEST.webroot##REQUEST.Ssubwebroot#/default.cfm?pID=#URL.pID#va
l=19b ADDTOKEN=No
/CFIF

There have been numerous postings about the unreliability of CFMAIL.  We've
experienced it here ourselves.  We've gone with iMSMail from
www.coolfusion.com .  They have a POST server for only about $250 and it
has a CFX tag that allows you to completely by-pass CFMAIL.  Very reliable,
very stable.  There is also ActiveMail from www.cfdev.com that is a good

Hi folks,

I'm running CF5 on Linux.
I'm having a strange CFMAIL problem that maybe someone could shed some light
on.

When I send a single mail via CFMAIL, it gets sent fine.
However, if I spool a bunch (even a small number like 50), one of two things
happens:

 - I suddenly get Unable to connect to mail server log messages. All msgs
in spool get dumped in undelivered.
or
 - CF seems to simply give up.  Messages just sit in /spool -- no error
messages, nothing.  Simply nothing happens until I restart CF.

Is there a known bug in CF that may explain this?  Or is something very
wrong with my SMTP server?

Thanks

Hello,

We're installing CommonSpot by Paperthin.  We had to revert back to 5.0
because CommonSpot isn't ready for MX (and vise-versa).  We've encountered a
problem.  Since putting 5.0 back in (after doing an uninstall of MX first),
the CF_TEMPLATE_PATH is not being returned.  This is hosing up CommonSpot
and other applications.  Anybody know what we can do to fix this?

CFMX and ODBC

2002-06-14 Thread Dave Hannum

Hello,

I have CFMX on Win2K.  I've installed the Oracle ODBC and have my TNS Names
file fine.  Now, here is my issue.  I have CFMX talking to Oracle on a Sun
box (which has Java).  But, I cannot get CFMX to talk through an ODBC Socket
to my Oracle on an IBM mainframe without Java.  CF5 does this fine.  The
error I keep getting in the CF Administrator when I set up the connection is
that my datasourse is not configured in the jrun-resrouces.xml .  I've
looked in there, and it is in there, just like the connections to the other
databases.  Now, it may not be correctly configured but I have no way of
knowing.  The info (Server IP, Port and such) is all correct.  I can connect
to the IBM database through SQLPlus, so I know that the machines can talk to
each other, but I don't believe SQLPlus uses ODBC, but it does use the
TNSNames.ora file, so I know it's correct.  I have Oracle ODBC on the
server.  Any clues?

Thanks,
Dave

(REPOST) CFMX and ODBC

2002-06-14 Thread Dave Hannum

I posted this about 2 hours ago, and have not received any response.  I went
to the Forums, and WOW - there are lots of ODBC issues surrounding CFMX -
expecially with Oracle.  Any of you FigLeaf guys have any insight into this?
I don't see MM lending any support here.  It seems to be an issue with many.

(RESOLVE) CFMX and ODBC

2002-06-14 Thread Dave Hannum

If anyone is interested, it turns out that the Oracle ODBC drivers were
hosed up (bad install).  When we switched to the Microsoft ODBC drivers,
everything worked fine.  So, a reinstall of the Oracle client and the fix
was complete.

Re: Shopping Carts

2002-06-12 Thread Dave Hannum

Look at it this way.  If you use the old Tack2 example as a basis - you
can build one in a few hours, then use it for all of your tight wad
customers.  But I think your root problem is you cannot make money providing
e-commerce for people who cannot or will not afford to pay for it.  They're
not going to make any money on the site, and you'll bleed yourself dry
supporting them.

You get a message that says: System Unavilable We apologize for the

Here's the deal on subscriptions:

CF server subscription: CFMX is available for immediate download.

If you are registered with a current/valid subscritpion serial number, you
should have received an e-mail with instructions outlining how to d/l CFMX.
The e-mail contains a link and some instructions. When you go to d/l CFMX as
part of your subscription, you'll have an option for requesting a backup CD
and documentation at no charge.

If you have a current/valid subscription and did not receive this e-mail,
first, be sure you're registered at:
http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/software/reg/register.jsp

Once registered, that will trigger the e-mail to you (not sure how long it
would take, but I would guess within a day or two).

If you find that you're already registered with your CF Server Subscription
number, and have not gotten this e-mail, please contact Customer Service,
and they'll get you squared away. Keep in mind, we're swamped due to
overwhelming response, but subscription issues do get a higher priority from
Customer Service. To contact Customer Service about subscriptions, use this
link:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/cscontact?6171=13


CFStudio Subscription:

Same process as above, but there are a few kinks we're currently working
out. I anticipate this should all be resolved in the next day or so.

1.) The letter that went out erroneously instructed to use the CF Server
serial number at the supplied link, but you should use CFStudio serial
number.

2.) Currently, there's a couple glitches in the online subscription
fulfilment mechanism. Most importantly, the system is presenting the wrong
bits for d/l (CFServer instead of DWMX  Homesite+) Also, sometimes the
Studio serial number you're asked to enter isn't correctly recognized.

Once these issues are resolved and you can successfully fulfill your
subscription online, you'll also be given the option to receive a backup CD
and documentation at no charge.

These issues should be resolved shortly, so try again in a day or two. If
you're still having trouble getting DWMX  HS+ as part of your CFStudio
subscription, contact Customer Service and they'll quickly help:

Re: Memory problems

2002-05-29 Thread Dave Hannum

Owen,

I doubt that the size of your files is the problem.  Michael D. runs the
CF-talk list with an Access database (or did until just recently).  Have you
got the latest MS Jet drivers?  Access 2000 is much more stout than 97.
Perhaps the latest ODBC drivers would be a quick short term fix.

So, the consensus is Access is the problem!  I wonder if the memory problems
have gotten worse in the past couple of months because of the growing size
of the database?

 I think in the cfusion\bin directory there is a batch file provided that
 sets up your scheduler to restart cf services at 2am (or so).

So running Cycle.bat sets up the scheduler?  Or do I need to schedule
Cycle.bat to be run?

I guess conversion to MySQL is now on the top of the pile after vacation.

Don't think so. I can't speak specifically toward the Hiermenu, but I had a
similar situation last year (needing a popup menu to cross a frame border).
I looked at all kinds of dhtml and flash options with no luck. The closest I
found was a dhtml menu which was displayed in one frame but popped open in
another frame. It worked okay but the dhtml was extremely heavy and complex
and we ended up ditching the idea.

When you think about it, it makes sense that this wouldn't be possible.
Think of a frame as sort of a self contained browser instance. You're asking
a browser to draw outside of it's own window, which really shouldn't happen.

Hi,

I'm using the hiermenus in my application. I have two frames and my top
navigation has the dropdown menus.
The top frame is only 60 pixels in height but when I move the cursor over
the link the popup menu stays within that frame.

Is there a way with v4.1.1. to have the dropdown menu overlay the frames?

 There are hundreds of uses for cfhttp other than scraping someone else's
 content.
 You can use it to grab feeds from other sites, run tasks on another
 server, pull data from other sites using wddx, etc.

 Yes, it CAN be used for evil, but so can javascript and it's still legal

  i was kinda wonderin, cuz you can use CFHTTP to make it look like your

  that actual work, and then displaying it on their own site...
 

 This subject line is a bit misleading - if CFHTTP was illegal, I can't
 imagine Allaire would have risked implementing it ;-)

 The real question you're asking is: Is it illegal to use web
 applications or content, via CFHTTP, that are not intended for use by
 third parties, and passing them off as your own?

 Well, I've no firm idea about the letter of the law on this, but to me
 you may as well be asking if walking into a supermarket and taking a bag
 of apples without paying for them is illegal!

 Further, even if there's some legal loophole you can jump through, IMHO
 it's *wrong* to do something like this. If you think the people whose
 stuff you're using wouldn't mind, I'd at least get in touch with them to
 confirm. If you think they *would* mind... well, you've kind of answered
 your own question there ;-)

Re: Macromedia Folks: What are you thinking?

2002-05-07 Thread Dave Hannum

Dear Macormedia,

Can't you just understand that there are LOTS of us out here that have no
use for the design studio which Dreamweaver MX is?  You know, some people
can simply see a page layout in their head, and can code the page much
faster than using the bulky interface that DWMX is.  Why is it such a
stretch to offer just the good ole CFStudio product?  We've proven time and
again we're willing to pay for a good product.  CFStudio just makes good
sense for a whole class of MM users.  Call it CF Coder MX or something like
that.  But please don't force us to use DWMX.  For example, here we have a
design shop and we're installing a content management system across campus.
Guess how much designing I'm going to be doing in my development work.
 Zero - zilch - nada - nothing!  Why would I want to be slowed down by DWMX?
I have no qualms about DWMX for designers and designers/developers who want
and have use for such a product.  But for pure coders/developers - it's just
not the answer!

Regards,
Dave

Neil, this comment is t generalized.  I myself really don't care what
tool I use.  I care that the tool I use be able to conform to how I work -
not me conforming to the limitations/functions/procedures of the tool.

I HAVE used Dreamweaver/UltraDev to develop a dynamic ASP site, and have
done a quick eval of DWMX.  And have no real complaints about the design
side of things.  But to make things work right, or optimize code, then I
would have to go to code level.  Dreamweaver was NOT a good tool for that
level of work.  It's looking like it is a better tool now with the MX
version.  But it still forces me to conform to how IT works, not it
conforming to how I work.

So, to say that I have never used Dreamweaver, and panicked that Studio was
being axed is not accurate at all.  Afterall, if I were concerned about
Studio being axed, then I'd just keep using the current version - no axe
there.

In my opinion, and I do mean this politely, you need to reevaluate why some
of us developers are expressing concerns.  Nobody is saying that DW is a bad
product - quite the contrary.  I think everyone agrees that DW is an
excellent tool - but geared towards Designers, not Coders.  You yourself say
you use BOTH DW and Studio - so, you should fully understand why this thread
has continued for so long.

I'm looking forward to the day I can use DW exclusivly, but until it
conforms to how I work, and stops telling me how I should be working, I
doubt I'll ever use it in that manner.

My thoughts.

Re: Whats the Deal with XML?

2002-05-06 Thread Dave Hannum

XML allows you to publish a page on your webiste (in XML instead of HTML)
then allows others to grab that page (just like you would using CFHTTP) and
use the contents of that page as a query.  So, if you are a supplier, your
customers can grab your pricing info at their own convenience, and integrate
it into their decision making process.

There's tonnes of information in the cf-talk history about this topic...

Xml is way more structured than a comma delimited file.  It deals with
things in a hierarchical view of its properties.  Xml is a specification.
What you do with it is endless...  You can format it using xsl or css.  You
can use it as a data source between two sites.

Using soap, you can use remote objects like they're your own.  This should
replace complicated RPCs.

Using dtd, you can define an unlimited amount of specs such as WML, HDML,
VRML, MathML, HRML, XHTML, etc.  These languages are all subsets of XML and
are defined through DTD or XMLSchema, which ironically XMLSchema is itself
an XML based language.  DTD is it's own language, and it's the most standard
for defining XML documents.

This just scratches the surface.  Look through the archives for all the
different discussions on xml already.  There is a plethora of information
there...

Application Log Warnging using CFX Excel

2002-04-22 Thread Dave Hannum

We've successfully used the CFX_Excel tag for a couple of years now.
We've just upgraded our server, and we've now got a problem
with the usage of the tag.  Here's the setup:

Windows 2000 Server
CF 5.0
Office 2000 (complete install)

When the CFX_Excel tag is invoked, the following warnings are generated in
the server's Applicaiton Log:

Warning #1
Detection of product '{00010409-781-11D2-B60F-006097C998E7}' feature
'ExcelUserData', component '{8AD02C96-C8B7-11D1-9C67-F81F1B38}' failed

Warning #2

'OfficeUserData', component '{C9AF9050-C8BE-11D1-9C67-F81F1B38}' failed.

We've tried everything (with Office and the CFX tag) from re-install, to
uninstall and re-install to having the Office disk in when the tag is
invoked.  Nothing helps and this error fills the Application log about every
day (because the application is heavily used).  Can anyone help or shed any
light on the problem?

Thanks,
Dave

Re: ColdFusion Listener?

2002-03-28 Thread Dave Hannum

 I was curious if there is anyway to have a listener of
 sorts via coldfusion. I basically want a dynamic form
 of mine to verify each field against the server as the
 user submits the data. I see this done a lot with applets
and with oracle but I haven't seen anything like this
 with Coldfusion? Is it possible...if so have an example I
 can look at?

By itself, ColdFusion can't do this. CF doesn't listen, it simply handles
requests sent to it by the web server. However, you can build something
with
the same effect by using JavaScript and DHTML or frames on the client;
every
time a user changes a field, you'd have to submit an HTTP request back to
the server, wait for the response, then process that response.

Dan Switzer has written an JSAPI for this.  It works great.

  Hi,
  
  This is regarding a post from yesterday. Maybe I didn't explain it

  about it.
  
  I am running IIS on NT 4. All users have accounts on the system.  In

  Windows Challenge/Response only.
  
  Now when users try to access the web page they are prompted with a
  username/password Windows authentication dialog.
  
  If the correct username/password are entered the user is redirected to
  my index.cfm file.
  
  This is what I would like to do.
  
  Within my index.cfm or application.cfm file I want to check if this is
  the first time that the index.cfm file is loaded. If so, do something
  otherwise do nothing.
  
  Below is just an example...
  
  
  index.cfm or application.cfm

  - Check to see if this is the first time index.cfm file is loaded (at
  login
  time)
  
   - If so dump some test
pLogged in/p
  
  
  If index.cfm is loaded any other time do nothing

Re: Database locked by admin?

2002-03-18 Thread Dave Hannum

When setting up an Access datasource on CF, you should ALWAYS uncheck the
Maintain Database Connections box under CF Settings  in the ODBC Data
Sources administrator.  CF hangs on to the connection and can lock out other
users trying to access the same tables.  Access is not a very good RDBMS for
web applications.  2000 is much better than 97, but still is not real good.

While using Access you may want to set you session variables for a shorter
period of time, so that when CF accesses the database it will also let go in
a short amount of time.

Subject: Re: Database locked by admin?


 I am getting an error message about my database being locked by 'admin'
and
 was wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions:


 Message: ODBC Error Code = S1000 (General error)P
 Native error code: -1102
 SQLState: S1000
 Detail: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not update;
 currently locked by user 'admin' on machine 'MYMACHINE'.PPData Source
=
 mydatasourceP


 In the archives I found that this may be because the database is
corrupt --
 I've run the compression/correction option on it (MS-Access database), but
 this keeps happening.

 The database this error occurs on is my visitors log -- for every page hit
I
 write out a record w/ the HTTP referrer, USER_AGENT, date/time, etc.  The
 website isn't high-volume at all (i.e. averaging around 1000 page
hits/day),
 but when these errors come up IS when there are a relatively large number
of
 page requests (for this website) within a short period of time.  ODBC
 problem?  MDAC?  Need to upgrade to SQL server?  :)


First off, I would highly recommend against using Access in a production
environment. While 1000 hits/day isn't exactly Amazon.com volume, that's a
respectable number and you should consider looking into an upgrade to a
RDBMS such as SQL Server.

The problem with access is that only one person may access (no pun intended)
the DB at a time because an Access database is by default set up to be
opened exclusively. So if two people concurrently try and hit the database,
Access will lock the other user out -- hence your error. I doubt it's a
corruption thing, although I don't know what your DB looks like either.

Make sure nobody has the database open in the Access program itself. This
also causes an exclusive lock that will prevent others from accessing it.

But, again, if you're at 1000 hits/day and that number may go up, I would
highly recommend looking into a more suitable solution such as SQL Server,
MySQL, Oracle, etc.

Regards,
Dave.

Re: Creating a file from a web page

2002-03-12 Thread Dave Hannum

Mark,

I do a similar thing all the time.  What you do is put your HTML output into
a variable, then you write the contents of the variable to a file.

CFSET temp = 

CFOUTPUT QUERY=myQuery
CFSET temp = ListAppend(temp, HTMLHEADTITLE#myPageTitle#/TITLE,
^)
CFSET temp = ListAppend(temp, BODYTABLETRTD, ^)
 . . . .  So on and so forth
Just remember to double quote any quotes in the HTML you're building to
escape them.  Example would be in HTML tags.

I like using a carrot ^ for a delimiter because it's rater unique and
hardly ever used in a page.  If it is, then you have to use something else.

Then you write the temp variable to an HTML file:

CFFILE ACTION=WRITE
  FILE=d:\inetpub\wwwroot\yourdirectory\somefile.html
  OUTPUT=#Replace(temp, ^, #Chr(13)#, ALL)#
  ADDNEWLINE=No

Works like a charm.

Wednesday, February 06, 2002, 8:23:41 AM
Hello everyone,

  I have a site with a simple forum. A situation has developed
  where I need to ban a few users from posting.

  Since this was never intended for much, there is no sign in
  feature to establish users so I'm just going to deny their
  IP's. It is working fine, lucky for me they seem to have
  static IP addresses and don't know enough to get around
  this.

  But, is there a more elegant way of achieving the following:
  (ips masked to protect the guilty)

CFIF cgi.remote_addr is 66.xx.xx.xx or cgi.remote_addr is
66.xx.xx.xx or cgi.remote_addr is 24.xx.xx.xx or
cgi.remote_addr is 198.xx.xx.xx


If I had to ban many users, this could get messy!




Best regards,
 Jeff Fongemie  mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

2002-02-05 Thread Dave Hannum

I has some spam in my email this morning.  It immediately popped me to a
porn site.  What it did though, was reset my start page through their
server, and I now, cannot reset my start page.  It's greyed out.  The URL of
this scum company is:
http://www.duolaimi.net (don't click on the URL)
My start page URL now looks like
http://www.duolaimi.net/d.asp?http://myURLhere.com

If I go into Internet Options, it does not allow me to change the Start Page
settings.  What's the fix for this?  Anybody know?

Thanks,

Found this on Google, though I didn't have the key (probably a different
version of IE):

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Control

Double-click the HomePage value and change it to 00 00 00 00


Also, you can manually change the start page back via the reg by going
to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
and changing the value of Start Page to whatever you want it to be.

  CFHttp doesn't like anything other than ASCII content.
  Perhaps you can do a raw grab (probably require a COM
  object or CFX - there's bound to be something on the
  tag gallery) as opposed to cfhttp - then I think it'd
  be easy to use CFContent to deliver the goods.

 I think you can use CFHTTP to retrieve any sort of file you like; you'l
l
 have to use the PATH and maybe the FILE attribute to save it to the
 filesystem, though, rather than referencing CFHTTP.FileContent.

If you keep your core HTML as compliant it can assist greatly but often

Forcing Target Attribute Into Link

Hello,

I have a little content management application where the users can insert
hyperlinks via manually coding the href's into the article they are
entering.  However, to keep visitors from leaving the site when they click
on these links, I wish to force the TARGET=_blank attribute into those
links, because the users refuse to.  I need to check for the existence of
this attribute in a link (that goes into the database) and force it in if it
does not exist.  Anybody done this before and care to share?  I figure it's
a job for RegEx but . . . .

Subject: Word Com Problems


Hi,

 I'm trying to generate an events calendar in Word via CF. I've tried
two solutions, both of which have problems:

 1. The first used CFTRY CFCATCH etc from cfcomet.com to test for a
Word instance and then launch a new if necessary. The code works, but
the problem with this one is that the winword.exes accumulate and can't
be shut down except by rebooting(Debug is grayed out). It seems that
every third or fourth call would start a new winword.exe.

 2. Writing a Server variable. The code is from Ben Forta's Advanced CF
Development. It successfully runs the first time and shuts down the
process, but any subsequent attempts get this:

 Error building an argument list for: VISIBLE

 COM error 0x8001010E. The application called an interface that was
marshalled for a different thread.

I tried changing the scope to session variables with the same result:
one success then failure.

 Any ideas? Code below

 Thanks,

 Doug Jordon

Solution 1:

!--- Try to connect to the Word application object ---
  CFTRY
 !--- If it exists, connect to it ---
  CFOBJECT
 ACTION=CONNECT
 CLASS=Word.Application
 NAME=objWord
 TYPE=COM
   CFCATCH
!---  The object doesn't exist, so create it ---
 CFOBJECT
 ACTION=CREATE
 CLASS=Word.Application
 NAME=objWord
 TYPE=COM
   /CFCATCH
 /CFTRY

Solution 2:

 !--- See if the Server object exists ---
 cfif not isdefined(Server.objWord)
   !--- Create the object ---

  CFOBJECT
 ACTION=CREATE
 CLASS=Word.Application
 NAME=objWord
 TYPE=COM
   !--- Exclusive lock in the Server scope ---
   cflock
   type=Exclusive
   scope=SERVER
   timeout=10
   throwontimeout=Yes

   !--- Pass the COM reference to the Server scope ---

 cfset Server.objWord = objWord
   /cflock
   /cfif
  !--- Read-only lock in the Server scope ---
  cflock type=READONLY
   scope=SERVER
   timeout=10

on.
However, the cookies are set to die when the browser is closed, so if the
user comes back in, they can submit again.  You could set the cookie to l
ast
forever or some given amount of time if you wish.

Dave,

The project I am currently engaged in ran into this problem a couple of

months ago.  Due to the dynamic manner in which data is placed in the
database (since the project has gone through several teams), JavaScript
 was
used to catch double-clicking of submit buttons.  I will say, that wh
ile
this method is convenient, it is not the best.  I would definitely sugg
est
modifying the stored procedure to read before writing the data.  This w
ill
make life a great deal easier, especially if you are in a clustered
environment.

Just my thought on the matter,

Is Their a Standard Way of Preventing Users from Entering Double Record

Refreshing Browser?

So when I submit A name and Email to a database and then hit refresh on
 the
page I was sent to Another entry appears

in the Database with the same information duplicated.  Is their a Commo

Practice in your coding to follow to prevent such a

small (yet potentially very common) Data Distortion.



Thanks,

Ad Servers Down

2001-12-20 Thread Dave Hannum

Has anybody noticed that doubleclick and other ad servers are down today?
Network problem or is there something somebody has heard?  Or is it a
content provider like Akami that is down, because I've noticed that Yahoo,
CNN and others have images that are missing.

Call the TLD Registrar (company the domain is registered with) and have t

Contact the registrar and find out if they can do a fax authorization.
This
may take just a little longer but it should work.

Heres my situation:

I just got handed a new website to manage.
S...

I want to transfer the site to our saervers so I looked up the whois on
the
name and it came back with a company that is no longer in operation.
what I
don't know how to do is to change the name servers of this domain
without
getting in contact with this company.  Any reference to them is a dead
link.


Also, the owner information of this name is inaccurate since our
personal
director who created this site has left our organization.

Anyone have any ideas

Anyone out there ever make a tag could check and create parent directories
of a specified directory if they do not exist?  For example, if I try to
create c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test\cf\ and if the directories above that \cf\
directory didn't exist they would be automatically created rather than

Does anyone have a page working that gets the online ups shipping cost? We
looked at this a while back, and Ben Forta's tag UPSPrice.cfm was working
then, but now that we're ready to put something in place, I'm getting a
Connection Failure error and after looking in to it, it looks like the tag
is on version 3 of ups's system, but their system is now on version 5. I
just went to DevEx and got the latest version of the tag that was modified
Oct 15th of this year, and it's still the version 3. Any help with what
small changes I might need to make to this tag to get it to work now or any
other options that would work would be greatly appreciated and would save me
