Re: CF and AJAX
+1 to JSMX Have used both AjaxCFC and JSMX in production webapplications, and I think JSMX is a bit easier to grasp and a more lightweight.

CFMX7 and SOAP errors
Hi all,
I'm trying to connect to a SOAP webservice through either cfinvoke or
createObject() with no luck whatsoever.
1. The webservice is hosted on some other server through php, I should
be able to connect to it using my username and password and run
functions on it.
2. The webservice works if I try it with php, or using:
http://www.bindingpoint.com/quicktryv2.aspx
3. Other webservices I can get to work on my server. It's just this
particular one with this server.
I tried to translate the provided php code into CF but keep getting the
same error. I even tried the most basic one-line:
cfscript
myObj = createObject( 'webservice', 'http://url/To/Webservice.php?wsdl' );
/cfscript
The error I get goes like this and is the same for both cfinvoke and
createObject:
---
coldfusion.jsp.CompilationFailedException: Errors reported by Java
compiler:
Found 2 syntax errors in
C:/CFusionMX7/stubs/WS-1930889944/com/prenames/webservices/soap/SearchResults.java:
10. public class SearchResults extends java.lang.Object[] implements
java.io.Serializable {
*** Syntax: { expected instead of this token
10. public class SearchResults extends java.lang.Object[] implements
java.io.Serializable {
---
*** Syntax: misplaced construct(s)
..
---
I'm guessing there is some kind of incompatibility with the Java version
of the provided webservice and that of CF. But that's just guessing...
I have tried different approaches (using cfinvoke with
cfinvokearguments, with passing in the username and password in
different ways, using array's using plain text, all to no avail. It just
keeps erroring out on line 1. the one with either the createObject or
the cfinvoke on it.)
Any Ideas?
Thanks guys, Mingo.
My specs:
Windows 2003, IIS, CFMX7 (7.0.2, Apache Axis 1.2.1)

Re: help on the cfif code
No that's not it, 0 translates to false in CF. So if myQuery.recordcount is 0, then cfif myQuery.recordcount would return false. My suspicion is that you have somewhere in your code a cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=yes. Is the code you posted earlier the actual code, or is it just an example? Becaus if you have cfoutput tags after the cfif, it would output what is between them, but if after the cfelse you don't have cfoutput tags, it would leave it blank (with the enablecfoutputonly setting on.)

Re: OT: Other countries besides US
I'm entirely with you on this one, I was just telling how some CRM software does it. But what would you recommend? just a textarea with 'enter your address here:' or a couple of generic Address Line 1, Address Line 2, Postal/Zip code, Province/State, City, Country (this is what most websites do today I think, and most bad ones make State mandatory, so I must but gibberish in it in order for the form to submit.

Mike Kear wrote: My point was not to list out the various differences between one country and another, but to point out that there are so many differences that masking or using regex to force a specific format when you know you are going to have customers from all around the world is simply futile. There are too many differences to handle in a practical manner. A few years ago, I was trying to buy software from Hewlett-Packard - an international company if ever there was one. But the on-line form required a US zipcode, only offered two-character state abbreviations, and validated the state against the postcode, required a phone number in the format (555) 555-, and believe it or not even required a Social Security Number!! And the product was not US-specific. It was international. I really needed the software, so i ended up phoning my brother in Indianapolis, asking him for his social security number. I made up one of my own based on his. I picked a zip code and address out of an American magazine, and just for fun used a phone number with the area code 555, since all phone numbers in movies have area code 555 for some reason. Then i used the comments box to give them the real information, downloaded the software and paid with my credit card. So their validation ended up getting them what? Useless made up information, and the address in theri database would be to some company I just plucked out of a magazine. If you're going to attract international business, you need to be a lot more flexible in your address/phone form than if you are going to tell customers outside your own country to bugger off.

Obviously, if the string contains things like ? then it throws an error, or simply doesn't return the record.

Re: CFIF inside a Form
Which is more readable is quite subjective, you probably find this more readable: select option value=#value#cfif value eq url.value selected/cfif#text#/option /select And I this: select option value=#value##iif( value eq url.value, de( ' selected' ), de( '' ))##text#/option /select Partly because homesite+ screws up the color coding and partly because i don't like tags inside of tags (even if it's to different languages) Anyways, I call potayto/potahto. Also I remember reading that iif() is actually faster in certain cases, but I forgot why when or how (something to do with the Java translation) but thats probably nullified by the delayed expressions... An even better way for the above example would be to put the ' selected' into a separate variable alongside the #value# and #text# Mingo. loathe wrote: Honestly, I almost wish that Adobe would do away with iif and evaluate. ~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:249576 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Re: Form parameters as array
I would do that a little different. You coul repeat the checkboxes like so:
input typ=checkbox name=isBannedUserID value=1 /
input typ=checkbox name=isBannedUserID value=2 /
input typ=checkbox name=isBannedUserID value=3 /
On the other side of the form action you would receive a list of id's in
the form.isBannedUserID, like this: 1,2,3 for all checked inputs.
Which you could then directly use in an UPDATE sql statement. (WHERE
userID IN ( cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer
value=#form.isBannedUserID# list=yes ))

What I needed is a simple way to output and process a number of very
similar fields. Let's say, you want to ban 10 users from a forum at
once. After you've found these users, you could output this:
input type=checkbox name=User[10][IsBanned] value=banned /
input type=checkbox name=User[20][IsBanned] value=banned /
input type=checkbox name=User[30][IsBanned] value=banned /
etc.
After the form is submitted you could do this in PHP:
while(list($key, $value) = each($_POST['User']))
{
/* $key now holds 10, 20, 30 ..., $val holds the value of the checkbox
*/
}
Additionally each field is accessible through
$_POST['User']['10']['isBanned'].

Is it possible you just have too many tables for CF to query in the
timeout given? If so, you might want to up the timeout using:
cfsetting requesttimeout=XXX
where XXX = time in seconds.

Good morning everyone.
As a novice with CF and newly introduced to one of our Oracle servers,
I'm having to rely on a cf query to find the tables and fields that way.
I can successfully run a query and list all of my tables, but when I
go one step further to list the fields, it is either timing out or
stopping about a quarter of the way through and I'm not sure what to do or
go from here.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

Re: IIS 6.0
One major feature of IIS 6 is the increased 'security'. As in: switch everything off until you tell it to switch on. Not so important on a dev box, but when you don't know about it, it can be a pain.

It actually changes the way the browsers render code in newer browsers and I am now used to writing code that is appropriate for that doc type (ex. in xhtml images have line-heights unlike earlier versions which will put padding around the image even if it has a break after it). Mostly though, its just about moving forward, staying with the times, and working towards standards. We at our company work the same way, using xhtml 1.0 transitional (occasionally even strict) and make sites validate through w3c. When they validate we test in different browsers, then we're done.

Hi all, Is there a place to get stuff settled (and don't say the cf-talk search function), stuff like what is the best wysiwyg editor (FCK, HTMLArea, TinyMCE, etc.), what kind of encryption to use (PGP, GPG), what mailserver works best with CF, what FTP server, any other unsettled issues?

Hi Tom, But, I take your point, that somewhere where 'How do I use gpg' or 'what HTML WYSIWYG editors work well with CF' would be useful.

Re: FAQ?
Hi Mark (and Tom), Not being stupid but coulnt HoF add a link to the signature of an email that when something is an answer or a good FAQ, it can be clicked and it then adds it to a page with FAQ's? All you would need to add is the Question and a link to the conversation? That would have my preference as well. And in response to Tom, I know there is no such thing as _the_ best, and that a lot has to do with your needs and skills, but I would at least like to see how many people back one solution and it might settle some of the recurring issues on this mailing list (like the framework question and the ajaxcfc vs cfajax vs the rest.) It won't take away the question of which is best, but this way you can at least see what's used most. And for the less used options a comment like structure could be used where users can post there good or bad experiences with it. Some ideas: Frameworks: - Fusebox (1,2,3,4,5) - Mach II - ModelGlue - Roll-your-own - More? Editors: - CFStudio - Homesite+ - Dreamweaver - CFEclipse - Vi - etc. HTML Editors: - FCKEditor - HTMLArea - TinyMCE - Ektron - More? Ajax Frameworks - AjaxCFC - CFAjax - JSMX - Spry - Roll-your-own - more Other unsettled issues (probably a lot)? Please post yours.

Re: FAQ?
Your site addresses the 'how do i do this or that' question. What I want is a place where I can go to answer the 'what tools are there for my problem'. In order to find out what the _right_ tools are for a certain job, you need to at least know _which_ tools there are and to help you find out if they fit your job it helps to read about what other coldfusion programmers' experience has been with them. Is that a possible extension to the cfcookbook project, a library of cf-related tools with user experiences? Mingo. ps. I'm promoting your site to my (not too many) coworkers.

Obviously I'm no brainiac.What I'm trying to get through is that what you see on the cookbook site would be considered best practice, at least by myself, Jeremy, and the other authors.
