RE: CF, Flash and dynamic multi-parent zoomable tree ?
Thanks Kevan. I'd heard of Joe Celko and his work on nested sets, but hadn't read that article.

I am considering a combination of CF and Flash to visually model a tree-like data structure, to display the complex relationships between various companies and individuals.

The idea I have is to do this in Flash, with different shaped or coloured nodes to denote different entity types (eg person, company, partnership). The tree is not single parent/child like a Windows Explorer style tree - each child can have two (or more) parents.

Could somebody please point me in the direction of any appropriate resources, or share any tips on how they have handled a similar situation in the past. We have sufficient database and CF skills, but not Flash. It may even be a case that a combination of XML and SVG is the best solution, but again we need to skill up there.

RE: CF5 on XP Home
Nope - XP Home comes with no web server and there is no equivalent of PWS to install. I'm guessing Apache would work.

RE: Urgent ! CFHTTP ....Connection Failed
Hi Jaime, Is CFHTTP working for any URL? Try something basic like www.yoursite.com first. When you say that i juz realised that using CFHTTP alone works, as in no errors were returned this seems to me that the tag is running, some sort of connectivity problem is occurring (for example, your web server might not be able to make to 'see out' onto the web, therefore the HTTP response you get back is in the from of a basic HTML message, stored in the variable cfhttp.FileContent.

Slightly OT: Cookie blocking at corporate firewall level -what gives?
My colleagues and I are currently faced with the question: "If the app uses cookies, what happens if the user is behind a corporate firewall that blocks cookies?". We know about using URL variables as an alternative, but the question we'd really like answered is "To what extent, generally speaking, do sysadmin's chose to block cookies at the firewall level?" I'd be real grateful if anyone could point me in the direction of any useful stat's or URLs.

Re: CFID and CFTOKEN, client variables, hidden form fields
Thanks to all those who helped.
Allaire's docs do seem a little ambiguous when they say that CFID and CFTOKEN can be
passed as hidden form fields - I now see that URLTOKEN can be passed as a URL variable
to the action page that your form submits to. Interesting post on this at
http://forums.allaire.com/DevConf/Thread.cfm?Message_ID=308908_#Message385663
I also tried the following technique:
CFSCRIPT
if (IsDefined("Form.CFID") AND IsDefined("Form.CFTOKEN"))
{
url.cfid=form.cfid;
url.cftoken=form.cftoken;
}
/CFSCRIPT
which I found at
http://forums.allaire.com/DevConf/Thread.cfm?Message_ID=569454_#Message569454, with
no success. Anyone else tried this technique and succeeded? A similar sort of thing is
described at
http://forums.allaire.com/DevConf/Thread.cfm?Message_ID=336048_#Message336048.
In the end, we have decided to use CFID and CFTOKEN on the URL, together with randomly
generated hidden form fields as a further means of identification.
Pete

Subject: CFID and CFTOKEN, client variables, hidden form fields
Apologies if this one has been asked before, but I couldn't find
an answer in the archives.
I would like to maintain state using Client (or Session)
variables but do not want to use cookies. I know I am therefore
reliant on the CFID and CFTOKEN being passed from page to page.
What I would like to do is pass CFID and CFTOKEN as hidden form
fields, rather than as URL variables. So far I have been able to
create my forms containing a hidden CFID and CFTOKEN, but on
submission of the form I'm unable to access any Client (or
Session) variables using the ID and TOKEN. Has anyone managed to
achieve this, and if so, would you be able to post a snippet of code?
Cheers
Pete
