CFINCLUDE of CGI pages
I have a cold fusion page and a CGI page that I would like in one without using frames. When I do a cfinclude on the .cfm page the cold fusion code works as it should the insead of displaying the output of the .cgi page it just displays all of the cgi code. Has anyone ran across this before?

I have a default query that populates a SELECT list, and under that list I have three hyperlinks that will allow a user to click on them to execute a different query to show different results in the list for them to choose from. I'm still pretty new to ColdFusion, and I'm not really sure what's the best way to implement this functionality, and was hoping for some ideas from anyone. The query that gets executed is basically the same, only the WHERE clause changes. I've tried just dynamically changing the WHERE clause using cfif checking based on a URL parameter, but didn't have much luck with that. Then I tried actually creating the three separate queries, and just changing the query parameter of my loop for the list values, using cfswitch checking to set the query parameter based on a URL parameter. That didn't give me much luck either. I'm just not sure how to best go about doing this. Does anyone happen to know of any articles online, or tutorials that might explain something close to how to do this? How to I create a .cfm page to accept a parameter by default to tell it which query to execute? Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ::YEX:: /* || Robert D.

REPOST: CF Server Error
Hi everyone, I keep getting an error that is getting really annoying and I was wondering if anyone knew why it was happening. First off, my website is one of many on a virtual server, hosted by Media3.net. Obviously right away this isn't ideal using a virtual server but for now that is what I got. Anyways, a few times a day when I am requesting a page all of a sudden the page will sit there and try loading for 30 seconds to a minute before erroring out with this message: Error Occurred While Processing Request Error Diagnostic Information Request canceled or ignored by serverServer busy or unable to fulfill request. The server is unable to fulfill your request due to extremely high traffic or an unexpected internal error. Please attempt your request again (if you are repeatedly unsuccessful you should notify the site administrator). (Location Code: 26) Please inform the site administrator that this error has occurred (be sure to include the contents of this page in your message to the administrator). Then after it errors out everything will be fine again for a while. What I was wondering was could it be the server restarting, a cflock issue (I don't use locks and it is using a database if that matters) or could it just be a bad hosting company. Has anyone had this problem or know anything about what it might be? Thank you, Jim Vosika http://www.tinyclick.com http://www.tinyclick.com/ __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Here is what I suggest. If you have Application. - Server. - Session. variables in your application you should lock all reads and writes using the cflock tag.

It's possible that it could be related to locking, although locking is typically not related to datasource issues ( although I've heard of it being used as a workaround for certain problems with MS Access ) and even when it is a database problem, you'll usually just get odbc errors rather than big-time cf server problems... It might be related to unlocked data manipulation in the application or more often session scopes... and unfortunately being on a shared server, it'd be difficult to say whether going through all of your own code and making sure all of your own stuff is locked would even solve the problem

What is julian exactly? Just curious? Please give an example.
Some archaic Unix based date format from what I can see. It is still
used by some banks.
The format is 0YYDDD, so today would be 002150 (assuming there
have been 150
days total this year).

Looping over code and seperating out links
I need to loop over a page that just contains links to companies in it
and separate out each link to be put into a database. I tried the
following code:
CFHTTP.../CFHTTP
CFSET variables.start = a HREF=
CFSET variables.end = /a
CFSET variables.orginal_content =#variables.final_content#
CFSET variables.edit_content=RefindNoCase('#variables.start#',
variables.orginal_content)
CFSET variables.final_edit_content=RefindNoCase('#variables.end#',
variables.orginal_content, variables.edit_content)
CFSET variables.final_content=mid(variables.orginal_content,
variables.edit_content,
variables.final_edit_content-variables.edit_content)
As I expected, this just pulled the first link out. How would I loop
over something like this to get each one, which will be put directly
into a database as it's own record. Could be anywhere from 10-200 links,
changes often.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you,
Jim Vosika

Advanced CFHTTP Q's - Logging onto websites
This question is just a shot out into left field but here goes. My example I am using below is an Amazon affiliate program where you can log on and view how much money you have made. Using CFHTTP or any other sort of tags, can you grab the affiliate login page, fill in the user name and password forms and then submit the form (assuming you knew the form names so CF could populate them and execute) Then once logged on you could have if follow a certain link to the page containing your balance then using simple CFHTTP pull the page and strip out your balance? I pretty much assume this is a big fat NO because right at the beginning with the Affiliate Login page, CF just pulls the source code (right?) and doesn't actually open a session giving it a chance to login (or am I mistaken??). Like I said it is a shot out into left field but I figured I would ask anyways. Thank you, Jim Vosika SoftwareSuperMall.Com __ Why Share?

Setting Query results as a Variable
I am querying my Database and getting back multiple results, as you with any query. I would like to put those results into a Variable to be used in a CFFILE function like: CFFILE ACTION=WRITE FILE=file.html OUTPUT=#MyQueryVariable# Here is my query if it matters: CFQUERY DATASOURCE=createhtml NAME=QueryRNI SELECT * FROM RNI WHERE rniPID=225221 ORDER by rniSection, rniSortOrder; /CFQUERY cfoutput query=QueryRNI#rniContents#br/cfoutput - This outputs all the rows as needed.

I think you need a fully qualified path to the local file, as in
LOCALFILE=C:\somedirectory\myfile.txt
If you know it's in the same directory as the CF template, you can use
LOCALFILE=#ExpandPath('myfile.txt')#
I usually use a cached connection, in which I open the connection,
perform
one or more ftp operations over the connection, then close it. If
that's
what you're trying to do, then you don't want to specify the username
and
password again in the putfile operation (this opens a new connection).
Instead, list the name of the connection that you opened previously, by
using 'CONNECTION=FTP'. Alternately, if this is you're only ftp
operation, supply the username/password in the putfile, but don't bother
opening and closing a connection.

for
the CFFTP tag, could someone please help.
I am trying to FTP a file to my other server and originally the file
is
l712 Bytes and once it gets to t destination it is 0 bytes. Could
someone please tell me what was wrong in my code?

You need the fully qualified path of the _local_ file, not the remote
file.
The local file is the file on your CF server, the remote file is the
destination file on the FTP server.
CFFTP
CONNECTION=FTP
ACTION=putfile
SERVER=www.yahoo.com
LOCALFILE=#ExpandPath('testfile.txt')#

I have tried the ExpandPath as shown below and when I use that, not a
single file is created on the other server. And I can't use a fully
qualified path because the server I am trying to FTP to is a virtual
server account so I have no idea when the path would be to account.
Before it made the file but it was 0 bytesAny more suggestions or
am
I screwed?

CFHTTP
I recently made a simple page using CFHTTP that pulled a webpage and displayed it. What I heard could be done with CFHTTP was you could pull a page and have CF look at the source and only display certain parts that are between a start and end point that you specify. Could someone give me an example of this?

CFFILE/VARIABLES - Dumb Question
No question is too dumb until you read below. I don't know if I am just having a brain fart or what, I am still new to CF but I should know this: I am uploading a file to my server using CFFILE then I want to write the location of the file to the database in this format: #cffile.ServerDirectory#/#cffile.serverFile# My current CFINSERT/CFSET looks like: CFSET uploadedFile=#cffile.ServerDirectory#/#cffile.serverFile# cfinsert datasource=test TABLENAME=Table1 formFields = vehicleType,modelYear,manufacturerName,vehicleDescription How do I get it to pull the value from my variable and put it into the database using CFINSERT or other method? Right now it is just inserting form values from the previous page. Any Suggestions? Thanks!

Passing variables through a URL
Hi, I know it's late but I have a newbie question for anyone awake. I am trying to make a text link that would sort records from a query. I would like to pass the parameter through the URL that says which column to sort by but can't figure out how. This brings up another question, am I using SQL/CFML properly to sort records on the fly. If you could tell me how to pass the url variable that would be wonderful! Here is my code so far: CFPARAM NAME=orderBy default=vehicleType CFQUERY DATASOURCE=test NAME=listVehicles SELECT * FROM Table1 ORDER BY #orderBy# /CFQUERY table CELLSPACING=3 tr td align=centerb!---This is where I am attempting the first linkVehicle Type/b/td td align=centerbYear/b/td td align=centerbManufacturer/b/td td align=centerbDescription/b/td /tr CFOUTPUT query=listVehicles tr td#vehicleType#/td td align=center#modelYear#/td td align=right#manufacturerName#/td td#vehicleDescription#/td /tr /CFOUTPUT /table Please be critical if there are better ways to do things.

This is the easiest way, but less secure as it will display the table names and allow for someone to manually enter a string to pass to the query: CFPARAM NAME=url.orderBy default=vehicleType CFQUERY DATASOURCE=test NAME=listVehicles SELECT * FROM Table1 ORDER BY #url.orderBy# /CFQUERY tr td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=vehicleTypeVehicle Type/a/b/td td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=modelYearYear/a/b/td td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=manufacturerNameManufacturer/a/b/td td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=vehicleDescriptionDescription/a/b/td /tr To add some security, we could check for the valid url variables, changing them to something a little shorter and hiding the table names in the process: CFPARAM NAME=url.orderBy default=vt cfswitch expression=#url.orderBy# cfcase value = my cfset variables.orderBy = modelYear /cfcase cfcase value = mn cfset variables.orderBy = manufacturerName /cfcase cfcase value = vd cfset variables.orderBy = vehicleDescription /cfcase cfdefaultcase cfset variables.orderBy = vehicleType /cfdefaultcase /cfswitch CFQUERY DATASOURCE=test NAME=listVehicles SELECT * FROM Table1 ORDER BY #variables.orderBy# /CFQUERY tr td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=vtVehicle Type/a/b/td td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=myYear/a/b/td td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=mnManufacturer/a/b/td td align=centerba href=mypage.cfm?orderBy=vdDescription/a/b/td /tr This way if anyone manually enters anything other than orderBy=vt (or my, mn or vd) vehicleType will be passed to the Order By clause in the query. Plus as I said, you won't be revealing the table names. -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ ColdFusion Solutions / eCommerce Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.twcreations.com/ __ Get Your Own Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation · $99/Month · Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusionb FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
Include a Dynamic Page
I am very, very new to Cold Fusion and I was wondering how you would place a dynamic webpage, let's say and Amazon product for example, into an existing website template? Ultimately what I want to do is: say I am an affiliate of Amazon.com, I want someone to be able to come to my website, click on the books section and see Amazon within my site template, click on a link such as Amazon's shopping cart and again stay within my websites template, through out the entire Amazon order process. I know this is easily achievable with frames but I absolutely hate frames so that is an option I am trying to avoid. Does anyone have any suggestions?
