RE: Escaping Pound Signs in a CF Query....

Ever looked into JavaScript?? I am going to be frank and apologize to everyone for this. I have been watching this list for 2 weeks and the mass of amounts of email being sent on a daily basis is annoying. There are some really good subjects in some of them but reading through them all is difficult to say the least. Maybe I will just look through the archives if I need anything. Now, comes my *whining*. -8--- snip ---8- Well, my take on it is this ... It was a legitimate ColdFusion question no matter how inappropriate or trivial it may have seemd to some. Your comment about "Ever looked into JavaScript??" was pointless. The question was, "Is it possible to do with ColdFusion?", not "Is it possible?". Maybe this person is new to ColdFusion and hasn't quite grasped the idea that it is strictly server-side. Or, maybe they do, but were still wondering if it could be detected server-side, etc. Maybe they were really asking if anyone has come up with a snazzy new way to do it. I understand that we should all mess around with the code and learn from trying new things and having to figure them out, but if we were expected to do that with every single thing we ever wanted to do, there would be absolutely no need for all those handy custom tags floating about. There also wouldn't be a need for fusebox or any structured, organized coding style of any sort. Besides, for the one person who asks a question on this list, there are probably 50 who are curious but have never bothered to ask, or are curious now that the question has been posed because they never even thought about it before. If someone answers the question, then everyone who is even remotely curious now knows the answer and can file it away for future use .. or at least remember if it is indeed possible so they will have a better idea where to and where not to look in the future if they need to. I thought we were all on this list to learn as much about the aspects related to ColdFusion as we can .. even the things we didn't think we wanted to know? As I have learned on this list every day, you can never have enough information.

YEs, we have the source code. It's actually a proprietary application made by our own programmers to generate a password for our software. I believe it's written in C.

RE: Need your help desperately...
With all due respect as a fellow CF developer, if you expect a certification to get you a job, then you are cheating yourself. Show good work and stay in the forefront and it doesn't matter who cheated and who studied for the test. I know a few people that had to cheat the MS exams just to get their foot in the door. Couldn't afford college, just enough money to cheat a certification. Now they are some of the finest network admins out there. An exam is nothing more than a review. If the piece of paper makes you more confident... good. That's all it's truly good for. And quite honestly, within the past year or so (disregard the years prior - the 'static' years), I haven't met a single successful developer / designer who didn't have any good work to show for it. But i HAVE met quite a few 'certified' unemployed 'developers'.

RE: Multiple value Select
I did this sort of thing for an intranet i'm working on with selected
company newsgroups... The best way to do it is with a database of your
finance types. This will allow you to updae the select statement without
changing the hard coding. So the form will always be right. Query that
database and the user database. In the user database, you will want to save
a comma delimited list of the finance types they are assigned for. When you
bring up the select, you can scroll through all the finance types, and if
the user had any in his/her list, they will set the FinanceSelected variable
to 'selected.' if they're not in the list, FinanceSelected will be blank.
Hope this helps...

Subject: Multiple value Select
I'm trying to set up a CFSELECT using the SELECTED option. I need to have
the CFSELECT set up as multiple since more than one option is permitted.
However, I can never seem to get the SELECTED option to properly highlight
the options that are already stored in the record. (In other words, I want
to create an edit screen where the previously stored values are preselected
in this control.) Any thoughts on what I may be doing wrong? The code for
my select follows: (Note that ViewGrid is a grid from which the user
previously selected this record. I've also tried doing this from a query
with the same result - nothing is selected.)

The best way to do it is with a database of your finance types. This will allow you to updae the select statement without changing the hard coding. So the form will always be right. Query that database and the user database. In the user database, you will want to save a comma delimited list of the finance types they are assigned for.

Yo may have a point.. try putting quotes around EditNameQry.PracticeGroup. Plus, if I replace CFIF ListContains(GetPG.PG,EditNameQry.PracticeGroup) with CFIF ListContains(GetPG.PG,"Agribusiness") the Agribusiness option is selected.

I think there's a problem in that the listcontains isn't finding any matches. I can't figure out why. I display the previously selected items in another part of the form and it is identical to the options in the database. There is a comma separating the selected items. For example, the record viewed via SQL shows: "Agribusiness,Commercial Litigation" (less the quotes) in the field. Both of those practice groups are identically listed in the GetPG.PG list. Yet neither of them are showing up selected in the control.

RE: Help with updating a database
You could try to include the form into the cfoutput tags, so that each product would have it's own editing form. Here's a rough idea of what i'm saying: CFQuery name="GetProducts" datasource="#Application.ds#" SELECTProductID, CategoryID, ProductName, Description, Price, Weight FROM tblProducts /cfquery CFOutput query="GetProducts" Form method="post" action="UpdateProduct.cfm" Table TR TDProduct Name:/TD TDinput type="text" name="ProductName" value="#ProductID#" size=20/TD /tr TR TDDescription:/TD TDtextarea cols=30 rows=2 wrap="virtual" name="Description"#Description#/textarea/TD /tr TR TDPrice:/TD TDinput type="text" name="Price" value="#Price#" size=5/TD /tr TR TDinput type="hidden" name="ProductID" value="#ProductID#"/TD TDinput type="submit" value="Update #ProductName#"/TD /tr /table /form /cfoutput ...This way, whichever row you edit, once you hit enter, it will submit the contents of the form on that row only. That allows you to avoid the hassles of naming. The other oprion would be to include #GetProducts.CurrentRow# as part of the field names to produce a different field name for each row of the query...

Currently I am stuck creating an administration page where I can update the prices in my database. The table has fields (ProductID, CategoryID (Hard Drive, Motherboard, etc), Description, Price, Weight). I want on the admin page for there to be all of the products listed in form text boxes. If I want to edit one, I can change the content of that text box and then hit the submit button and it edits the database. The problem I'm running into is that I can't name the form fields the same thing because then it won't know which to edit... Can anybody explain how I would do this? I am very new to coldfusion. Thank you for the help.

RE: Hosting Solutions???
Powersurge.net is pretty good. 24-hour support, even though thgey usually answer an email within 5 - 10 minutes and some good rates. -Original Message- From: john ellard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 04, 2000 6:42 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Hosting Solutions??? This might open a debate that I would be very interested in :-) We are on the verge of abandoning shared CF servers in favour of pure colocation because of the hassles. I have made comments on this mail below but I'd really welcome views - my conclusions are (as they should be) at the end of that. At 14:34 04/08/00 -0400, you wrote: Ok I am looking for a GOOD hosting solution that will allow me to use CF 4.5 and SQL Server 7.0. I dont want a dedicated server, just shared server if possible, I am with Intermedia right now and for the last week their service has SUCKED because they 1. put too many people on each server Can't comment on any other hosting company, but just how is one supposed to know how many is too many?? It really depends on a myriad of factors, none of which are generally clear at site launch to either the hosting outfit or the client. 2. dont monitor sites for BAD CODE that could bring the server to a screeching halt so in the last week my site has been up and down DAILY. Which is UNACCEPTABLE, they just say "well there is nothing we can do about it" Bull CRAP! Now just precisely how do you monitor for 'bad code'? Obviously if CPU hits the roof for prolonged periods it's a symptom, but by then it's a bit late. There are plenty of so-called developers out there who are incompetent, but short of examining each template, each SQL statement in detail how does the hosting company adjudicate? Even then proving that a client is the culprit can be difficult and contentious. Anyway Media3 I was going to go with until they too FOREVER to set up my account, maybe they were just having a bad day? So if you use them has your experience been good? The things I am looking for are reliablity and support that is EASY to contact. For instance intermedia you can ONLY CONTACT by email which is RIDICULOUS when hosting BUSINESS applications. If anyone can recommend a reliable CF/SQL hosting solution for no more than 75/95 a month please let me know. So you want policing, code-checking, voice support, and all that for 75-95/month. Yet you don't want your own server, just to share. And you shout about the difficulty in finding such a service because you're talking about a business application? My own view is that you get what you pay for. If your 'business application' is that critical surely it merits a dedicated server. Overall I think you raise a number of issues that perplex both shared-server users and hosting companies, and these include: 1. How do hosting companies police CF developers? 2. What sanctions are reasonable where a site harms others on the same box? 3. Where does support end and free CF consultancy begin? We have plenty of 'naughty' users whose response to a complaint about the behaviour of their templates is to seek advice from our support desk on how to fix their bad code. My own views remain vague about these questions, and we're inclined to move to pure box-hosting since that way all we have to provide is bandwidth, electricity and rack space. And that increases revenue, simplifies support, and stops shouty emails :-) Does anyone out there have any (non-CAPITALISED) views? Thanks Kelly for focusing my mind on a current problem s John -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
