Re: OT - Purchasing .bm domain names
Hello Adrian, Registering domains outside of our jurisdiction may not be an easy process. You must be familiar with a countries policy in registering TLDs. For example, in order for someone to register a domain in Brazil, they must have Brazilian documentation and in some instances you may even need to have a company established in Brazil. I am not sure about Bermuda. I am also not sure how 101domains manages to get around and register domains from other countries. I would do a research before proceeding with registration just to make sure that you will have full access to your newly purchased domain in the future. Make sure to read the policies with your registrar and understand what they are doing. Just because you may be able to buy a domain for a different country does NOT mean that you may own all rights to it. Ravi.

Re: Thinking of a career change.. how does one get into Technical Recruiting..
Hello Jeffry, I hear that a lotI believe that there is good and bad everywhere. In my opinion, if you are really good and you do your job honestly, no matter who you are (native or foreigner), that you will get paid fairly and you will not be treated as servants (not sure about other countries). Be it a foreigner or a native, it does not really matter anymore. It may have mattered in the past but not anymore. I do not believe that foreigners are taking away the jobs natives can do (I refer to computer related jobs). I believe that natives are choosing the best work force for their current needs. Do I think that it is somewhat harder for foreigners than it is for natives? Yes. I do think that it is but this is a country of opportunity. The kind of opportunity that you will never find elsewhere. So I would take any hardness that I find here for a chance to better myself. H1B Visas are HARDLY being issued (so I hear). Its almost unheard of these days. Either you come here on a student visa (I-20 co-op program) or you better have a Green Card. H1B Visas can cost a LOT of money to companies and it is ONLY worth in exceptional cases. I heard about a company that brought this Chinese dude that was phenomenal. He could do virtually anything you can imagine. He was one of a kind programmer...very smart...later got admitted at MIT and today if I am not mistaken he works for NASA. The company sponsored his Green Card and everything. Only those kind of people are getting H1B Visas these days (so I heard). It is very selective these days. My sister is a Canadian citizen and she was telling me about Canadian immigration laws the other day. She told me that in order for anyone to enter Canada that they need to be qualified. The Canadians have a score system. You need to have a certain score in order to enter Canada. So for example, if you have a bachelors degree you automatically get more points. If you have a valid work history then that also counts towards your score. This way only the qualified people get in. What I love about Canada is that once they filtered everyone, they make it easy for you to get the Canadian citizenship. Forget about this bullshit of Green Card. There are no talks about foreigners being servants in Canadians (so I hear). I just think that we should implement some type of score system or qualification measurement so to only let those who are qualified into the country. Indeed, make it easy for newcomers to get their Green Cards. woww...OK! I gotta work now...got carried away...anyways...cya Ravi. http://ravigehlot.wordpress.com/ Jeffry Houser wrote: Personally I'd rather have smart people being brought into this country than them being sent elsewhere. I believe having intelligent people here it is a good long-term strategy for making this country better; no matter where they were born. I understand that many of the criticisms of such programs, such as H1B Visa, is that companies are bringing in foreigners to jobs that native USA-residents are qualified to do; and the workers brought in are treated as indenture servants. I do not know enough about said programs to tell whether that is a valid concern of a bunch of FUD. ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-jobs-talk/message.cfm/messageid:4212 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-jobs-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.11

Hello Rob, I agree with you. Companies will always do whats best for them no matter what. This is the nature of capitalism.

RobG wrote: I like Ravi's positive outlook, but I have to somewhat disagree and say that there are lots of companies that will, without hesitation, do what's best for them, regardless of how loyal you've been or how hard you've worked. It's up to you to keep your eyes open, so if you see it happening, you can react accordingly. A few years ago, I had taken a remote job with a company out of San Diego. They were a computer hardware/software reseller similar to CDW (but it was NOT CDW). I was one of four developers, only one of which worked on-site. The company flew us all out and we had a great time for the week meeting each other, going over systems, making plans, etc, etc, etc, while listening to the CEO and his right-hand-man make promises for the future. A few months later, my job got cut because they decided to cut one of the four developer positions and outsource that position to CHINA. They could get TEN chinese developers for what they were paying me (which wasn't much to begin with). When I spoke to the CEO's right-hand-man about this, and the promises made while we were all in San Diego, he said, hey, it's business. Nice. I've kept in touch with some of the people there, and as we all figured, the outsourcing came back to bite them in the ass, and I've even seen them advertise for developers on cf-jobs. So I guess the bottom line is this... NEVER take anybody's word unless it's in writing, and even then, doubt it.

Hello Aaron, You are right. There are outsourced jobs in Brazil as there are their own created jobs. This is what I meant to say.

Re: Thinking of a career change.. how does one get into Technical Recruiting..
Just my $0.02 cents...I think that recruiters do help one get a job. Yes, most recruiters are all about business but who is not? They try to get you in and if they can not then they go on to the next one. This is just the nature of their business. They gotta make it work and in order to make it work they have to move fast and find the right candidate for the right position. That's fine. However, what I do not agree with is the fact that most of these recruiters are extremely friendly at first and then it all changes afterwards. I have heard this from most programmers. This is not just coming from me. Also, if they can not get you the job that they have been trying to then they also vanish without a trace (this does not apply to all recruiters). They don't even send you an e-mail to say go look for a new opportunity. I mean, it only takes 5 seconds right? I took 1 week of my time to talk to you and you do not have 5 seconds to say...Hey, it did not work but maybe next time? AlsoI had one recruiter call me every 2 weeks to have me rely information about the company hiring procedures. He wanted to know if anyone was being hired directly by the company instead of his recruiting company. SoI try not to be on either side..I am neutral. But man...you come to me to ask me questions but when I go to you to ask you questions you just ignore me? What kind of recruiter-to-programmer relationship is that? This is not an attack on recruiters. My experience with recruiting companies is OK. Will I work with recruiters in the future. YES. Everybody is entitled to making mistakes right? I am sure they also have a lot to tell about programmers too. This is just my $0.02 cents, Ravi. Jerry Johnson wrote: I was (mostly) kidding. But many programmers and tech types do not realize how _hard_ placement folk work to get someone into a job. It seems like free money when you see how much they added to your contracting rate, or how much you hear they get paid per permanent placement, but believe it or not it is a difficult job. You _need_ to divorce personal feelings for each client from the equation. It is easy to get paralyzed with I _need_ a job this week, or I lose my house (my children are sick, my mother-in-law lives with us, etc), but you cannot let it get to you. You need to be able to take 30 rejections in stride, and swing just as hard, with as much patience and professionalism as you did on the first. And you need to be able to In the glory days of the dot com era it was an easy job. (pick one resume at random from column a, match with one job opening from column b, profit!) But companies (for the most part) are much smarter in their hiring. and tech staff are much more skittish after bad experiences. So matchmaking is important if you want any follow on placements. The skillset that makes a good recruiter, in my opinion, are very specific. As Rob mentions below, they need to leave the tech staff feeling decent (even if turned down), need to leave the company feeling good (whether you place a person or not, you still want them to keep your card for next time. Because there will be a next time). You need for your recruiting company to feel you are contributing. And you need to feel pretty good about what you are doing (and how you are doing it) or the smudges on your soul get overwhelming and over time very obvious to others. I don't have the right skills, but I respect the skills in others and can recognize people that do have it all when I meet them.

On the other hand there are a handful of recruiters with whom I have had very very successful relationships with, and one in particular who has become a pretty good friend.. why, because they're honest stand up people who look at prospective employment candidates as something more than just an email address or a means to fulfill US State Department guidelines, to bring in H1B Visas candidates. -- Scott Stewart ColdFusion Developer 4405 Oakshyre Way Raleigh, NC 27616 (h) 919.874.6229 (c) 703.220.2835 ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-jobs-talk/message.cfm/messageid:4207 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-jobs-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.11

Re: We Do Three Types of Jobs Here...
Vicky, I wasn't able to find the presentation but I did find the notes of a person(http://www.philduba.com/index.cfm/2008/6/21/CFUnited--Changing-the-Game) who attended it. Here are his notes from the presentation Changing the Games by Helms. - Concentrating only on your rates = commoditizing yourself, at least without adding value and/or establishing relationships - Acquiring a new customer costs 6 times as much as keeping one - put the best interests of clients first, even if it isn't in your immediate best interests - message you put out is the types of clients you will attract (ie., if you say you build what is wanted and are cheap, those are the types of clients you will get) - build a portfolio before going off on own, take on jobs you have no problem referring future clients too - look deeper when responding to potential clients, keep their interests at heart - keep up to date on competition across the client's industry to see if there are other ideas that may be applicable to a client's needs or other things the competitors do not have - get as much information about a client as you can before meeting with them - remember that to a business person, software is expensive and risky. ideally, you need to develop a process and/or methodology that helps to mitigate the risk - Great comment from the audience: customers want programs done good, cheap, and quick and that most can only achieve two of the three - help to define the risk about the project, make the customer realize what could go wrong. it makes you stand out and differentiates yourself from others - goal is to be not just a commodity developer or coder, but become someone they can rely on that has their interests in heart Ravi.

Re: Best ways to find projects
Jenny, There are many ways to attract potential clients/projects. But freelancing has its drawbacks as you might already know. I prefer a job over freelancing because I get benefits and a steady pay. But back to your question, in order for you to get more clients/projects you need to build your presence on the Internet. It was a great idea of yours to start your own business website. That's a great start but it will not attract people(clients/projects) if it is not being advertised somehow. So try to market your name or your business name (Fast Track Online). For instance, your name(Jenny Gavin-Wear) is very powerful. Try to build a BLOG and give people what they want. They want quality articles that they can learn a bunch from. Try to get a domain name after your name and build a BLOG. Thats where you will post articles and people will read about it. If you can do that, you can build traffic. If you can build traffic that trusts your information, you can build prospects that may hire you later on. Take for instance my BLOG at http://www.ravigehlot.net/ . I have been getting about 500 visits daily just because I wrote 1 good article on SVN. My BLOG has only been around for 3 weeks and it is already getting some attention. Yesterday, I had a guy from France pay me $200 dollars to step up SVN for him. While, $200 dollars is not a lot of money, if more people ask me to do the same then it will great. So blogging is one way to draw more projects/client. However, bear in mind, put your heart into your blog. I mean, do it with attention to detail not just to try to make money. Do it because you can have fun with it too. My BLOG is sort of diary where I keep everything I have been looking at lately. Try to get on Social News networks like Digg, DZone, Delicious, StumbleUpon, Reddit. Also try to get on Social Networks like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace and Hi5. You will network with people that share yours interests and they may need your services in the future. Another way to draw more prospects is to try to rank well on the search engines. This falls back on Search Optimization Techniques but being able to be found on search engines is not enough. More and more people are not reading text. What they is to experience and try your services. So for Fast Track Online, you should try to build demo sites and stuff that you have been doing. People will want to go back there to test a feature you have done. Not to read the text. The text is good for search engines to find you. Good Luck, Ravi Gehlot Jenny wrote: Having seen replies as expected regarding on line project sites, I'd be interested in hearing about everyone's most popular/successful way of finding projects.

I know that JS files are only text files and as far as I know there aren't any special settings to parse it. It is possible to configure the web server and the ColdFusion application server to pass *any* file to ColdFusion for processing other then the default normal, cfm, cfc, cfr, etc file extensions. This is sometimes done so that ColdFusion processes normal htm|html files, usually for server obscurification, i.e. to hide that the server is making use of ColdFusion. It can also be done to preserve established links to an older html site that is converted to cfml. It would be rather unusual to do this for JavaScript files, but it is technically possible. The benefit is that you could have linked JavaScript files dynamically built with CFML. The downside is that it interferes with normal browser caching of linked script and|or style files, the same thing can be done with CSS files. Sometimes it is worth the trade off and|or there are ways to mitigate the downside with cfheaders... etc. ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:316985 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Re: ColdFusion 32bit or 64bit, that is the question.
Hello Pete, It is interesting that you mentioned about the 64-bit ODBC drivers. I was thinking about moving my server to a 64-bit platform. So I have been asking around what people think of ColdFusion running on a 64-bit platform. Most people say that it is faster especially if you have lots of RAM memory. Which makes a lot of sense since RAM memory makes a big difference. But these people have not complained about any of the functionality of CF8 on a 64-bit. I would think that CF8 for 64-bit would have everything that the CF8 for 32-bit has including all the ODBC drivers. What do you mean by lack of drivers? Wouldn't those drivers come with CF8? Please excuse my ignorance if any, Ravi.

Re: Slightly OT - JVM memory usage
Craig, I think that SeeFusion has it broken down by thread. I might be mistaken as to what you mean by Thread in actuality but if you look at the demo it says there on the label Thread for Active Requests. It then shows you the file name asked by the request. Correct me if I am wrong. Ravi Gehlot. Craigsell wrote: We are running Jrun version 4. Our plan is to try and tune the JVM -- it needs it. We have folks who specialize in that and will be bringing them on board as soon as they are available. Immediate problem is whatever is grabbing the memory is not releasing it so the GC can clean it up. Or the GC is ignoring it. Exactly right - uncontrolled queries, etc. can all kill memory. I've been watching the server with FusionReactor, have seen some of those issues, and was able to get them fixed since it was obvious what thread was causing it. Once I know the thread, I can find the developer and get the code changed. What we need is some way to figure out excatly what memory is being allocated where so when the memory pegs and holds (I'm talking forever), we stand a shot at diagnosing the problem -- otherwise it is like finding a needle in a haystick. FusionReactor is SeeFusion on steriods. Problem is that Fusion Reactor monitors memory utilization but does not break it down by individual thread. From what I've seen of SeeFusion -- i don't think it does either. What I'm trying to accomplish is to enhance our current monitoring capability with another cheap tool so we can identify the immediate issue and possibly prevent it from occuring in the future by making it available on our development instance. ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:316912 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: Simply Amin Panel
Hello Steve, Set your table to accept NULL and wrap your cfquery around with a cfif. This way, you will only run the query if you need to. You will save unnecessary trips to the database if there is no value being passed by the form variable. Example: cfparam name=FORM.alert default= / cfif len(FORM.alert) cfquery name=qryUpdate datasource=text update alert set alert = '#FORM.alert#' where alert = '#FORM.alert#' /cfquery cflocation url=../../status1.cfm?msg=succeed. cfelse cflocation url=../../status1.cfm?msg=fail. /cfif Also, make sure your method is set to POST on your form in order for the form variables to be passed correctly.

Re: Simply Amin Panel
Steve...just for your information. It is good practice and almost imperative for your to use cfqueryparam with your cfquery to avoid sql injection attacks. This is a security measure that you should start getting yourself in the habit of doing it. Also, once you get this query to update, look into cftry and cfcatch. Every time you make a trip to the database, you are better off having a cftry/cfcatch around your cfquery to catch on possible errors. It makes life easier when you need to debug. For now, I know you are trying to get this work but once you do get this query to work, get back at me and I will show you some error handling and security tips for your query. Ravi Gehlot.

Re: Simply Amin Panel
Hello Robert, I mentioned that he set the value on the database side to default to NULL so even if nothing is passed it defaults to NULL. It is also a good practice to default the value to NULL since NULL has no value/spaces and it is less likely to cause an error. Thanks, Ravi Gehlot.

Re: Simply Amin Panel
Robert, You are right. If you default the value to NULL on the database, NULL only comes into play when you first create a record. So you are correct when you say that he can pass an empty string and it will be empty and not NULL on the database. What you are saying is that the query should run anyways because might want to just wipe out what he has on the database opposed to inserting some other string or number. With the code I had before, he would only run the query if he had value length which makes it impossible to update it with an empty value. Good Thought, Ravi Gehlot. Robert Bailey wrote: Ravi, He can use an empty string '' if he does not want to use a NULL. Your suggestion, to set the database to default to NULL would only apply if he was doing an INSERT. Now think about this What if the alert (in the database) was Help Me Now he is on his form, he deletes help me to be empty in the text field, and he wants this change to be reflected in the database. With what you are suggesting, it will remain Help Me if he wipes it out of the text field (or whatever he is using) since it would not update. Thanks!

Re: Simply Amin Panel
Steve, Before you can update the database you need a match. What I mean by a match is that you need to pass an ID to your query that matches that of the record you wish to update. Example: cfif isDefined(alertId) and len(form.alert) cfquery name=qryUpdate datasource=text update alert set alert = '#FORM.alert#' where alertId = '#FORM.alertId#' /cfquery /cfif form name=updateForm method=post action=thisFile.cfm AlertId: input type=text name=alertId value= /br /br / Alert: input type=text name=alert value= /br /br / input type=submit value=submit / /form On the alertId text field, you will pass the Id that corresponds that of the primary key of the row you wish to update on the database. So look at your database and try to find the row you need to update. Let's say that the row number is number 4. So you type number 4 on the form for AlertId field. Then type some text for the Alert field and hit submit. This should work without a problem. Ravi. Steve LaBadie wrote: Sorry Ravi no dice. This should be a simple thing to do.

Re: CF-based freelancer time/billing system?
Jason, If you do *not* have a lot people to manage then I would say try Basecamp to manage your projects and use Paypal for your invoicing. Back in 2004 when I used to have my own business, I would use Basecamp for my project management and then I would invoice people through Paypal. Paypal has a pre built template for invoicing and it e-mails it to the person. If you do have a lot of people to manage then you might be looking at something more complete. This kind of system is not hard to develop. If you wish to develop something like this let me know. Ravi Gehlot.

Re: CTO Opportunity
Just my $0.02 cents. Aaron, The problem begins when you try to find a job while still on a job. If your boss finds out that you are indeed on the look out for a new opportunity then it may sparkle misunderstandings and misconceptions. I had a friend once that did really well on his project and he had gotten bonuses and all the good stuff. The contract was at its final stage and he needed to make more money because his wife was pregnant with twins. It so happens that he sent an e-mail to a mailing list of which his boss was also a subscriber. The e-mail had information about his skills, a link for his resume and that he was looking for a new opportunity to make more money. His resume was open to the public.. His boss called him 5 minutes after he sent that e-mail and cursed him to death saying that it was unethical to say that my friend was not well paid after all the bonuses and everything. It sparkled so much trouble that he got out of the company. Indeed, my friend had done his job well. The project had been 95% delivered and he was looking for a better opportunity. With his wife pregnant, it was a perfect time to look for a new chance to make more money. Instead, because of a misunderstanding with having his public resume open to the public, he ended in a bad situation. His boss later told him that it will be harder to find programmers because people may think that he does not pay well. Whih in part, is true. Just my $0.02 cents, Ravi.

I am not sure what Mr. Vincent is trying to accomplish by sending these kind of e-mails but I can talk for my own experience. I have worked with recruiting companys like Robert Half Technology, Signature Consulting, TekSystems, AppleOne among others and all I have to say to the recruiters is THANK YOU. They went out of their way to help me get a job. Besides they were patient enough to help me get my resume right. They even spoke in my behalf to work a deal and they sure did their job well. Up to this day I have good friends in the recruiting business. People that take me not only as a professional but also as a collegue and partner. If someone had a bad experience with recruiting companys then fine. There is always 2 sides of a coin but do not come on a mailing list saying all kind of nonsense about people that actually tried to help you out when you needed the most. You never know. Thanks, RG.

So if a company does not want me because I told the truth about a bad experience with another company who was soliciting my fellow IT Professionals then I do not want to work for them. Since there are no shortage of work and the fact that I usually do not take contracts of this site anyway because of things just like this, I don't have to worry about work. And hey if you dragged your family 600 Miles and 10 hours of driving for a company that did not set up the interview right then maybe you would not care if some other fly by the seat of their pants company decides you are not what they want then that is just fine. I have enough telecommute work that I don't have to apply to any of these contracts unless I know the employer, had a friend who worked for them, or the recruiter is from a company like TekSystems, Matrix, RHT, or Yoh IT .

anyone asks...yes...I am sticking with CFSCRIPT.

Re: Using tags with CFSCRIPT
Scott,
You made an excellent observation about CFScript. It does process
faster because it reads a whole block instead of reading tag by tag. Well,
the code doesn't work because it says that the cflocation is an undefined
variable. I have searched Google to find out how to use CFTags with CFScript
and it looks like I got the correct syntax. Can you replicate this error?
Ravi.

Ravi,
I know you don't have to surround CFScript tags with CFOutput tags. What
errors are you getting.
I've used a similar script with HMS hosting. Using CFScript should be a
bit
faster as CF processes the CFScript block all at once as opposed to
processing each tag individually.

directory specific for that domain. That way I am able to host all my
sites
with the CF+ Builder package. My question is...I was about to achieve this
with cfswitchcfcase but when I switched it over to a cfscript block I
started getting errors. Can anyone tell me where I made a mistake? Before
anyone asks...yes...I am sticking with CFSCRIPT.
CODE:
cfoutput
cfscript
switch(cgi.http_host) {
case 'www.brightWebWorks.com':cflocation(theURL:'brightWebWorks.com/');
break;
case 'brightWebWorks.com':cflocation(theURL:'brightWebWorks.com/');

The getPageContext() is more a java function. I didn't want to go that

Re: Using tags with CFSCRIPT
Hi Dominic,
Thank you for clarifying this whole thing. I had done a couple of
searches on Google and I didn't read anything about creating an UDF.
Obviously creating an UDF for this matter is not necessary when you can use
cfswitch and cfcase but for the sake of learning lets say I were to create
these UDFs; Where would I place these UDFs so that whenever I needed them I
could just call the function?
Ravi.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Yes, this is the problem:
cflocation(theURL:'brightWebWorks.com/')
cflocation is a tag, not a function. To do the cflocation from within a
cfscript block you will need to create a UDF. I.e.
cffunction name=scriptLocation
cfargument name=location
cfargument name=addToken required=false default=false
cflocation url=#arguments.location# addtoken=#arguments.addtoken#
/cffunction
Then, in your script block:
switch(cgi.http_host) {
case 'www.brightWebWorks.com':
scriptLocation('brightWebWorks.com/');
break;
}

Yeh, I often use UDFs for this kind of thing where I want to use cfscript
but there is the odd tag I need to use but I doubt you'd ever get a google
result for this kind of thing.
For UDFs, I usually create a folder in my project called '_udfs' and have
a
single cfm file for each udf. Then, in the page that needs to use the udf,
just include the file. So:
cfinclude template=/_udfs/scriptLocation.cfm
cfscript
switch(cgi.http_host) {
case 'www.brightWebWorks.com http://www.brightwebworks.com/':
scriptLocation('brightWebWorks.com/');

Putting the functions in a cfc is perfectly valid though and will work (I just don't like to use cfcs in this way).

Re: Using tags with CFSCRIPT
Hi Raymond, I am just being cheap. But the workaround with cfswitch/case works for now with HMS and it lets me have multiple domains in a shared hosting account. I don't have any hard feelings towards HMS; They have been good to me. But I would imagine that the cheat would only work with IIS validating hostnames. In my case, it doesn't validade letting me use different domains. Weird. Any insights? Ravi.

Re: Using tags with CFSCRIPT
Hey Scott, I spoke to a couple of my senior developer friends and they told me that back in the days of CF5 cfscript was faster than tags but that doesn't hold true with CF7 and 8 so it doesn't really matter.

Re: weird issue in browser with cf8 and long execution times
It is weird that it asks you to save the index.cfm file. The only time I had that problem was when IIS was not configured to open CFM files. Same had happened with Apache. But since you are saying that the process are running on the background with data being inserted into the database it makes me think that this is not a problem of adding CFM to IIS/Apache Index Directory.

Re: from CSV to XML
Hey Mike, You are right. But the TRIAL version did the conversion. So thanks to Sean Corfield for pointing that out. However, I am not happy yet. I don't want to use that software, I want to write the XML myself. What is the fun of having a software do the job? I have been doing a lot of reading on XML. Ravi.

Re: from CSV to XML
Hey Sean, If I use CFHTTP to produce a query from that CSV file what other tool could I use to generate the file. You are completely correct when you say that the question didn't make any sense since with XML we can produce our own tags depending on the type of content structure given. But using CFHTTP to produce the query from the CSV file is quite possible and then having it imported some how in XML format. I never used the CFWDDX tag so will research on that. Also, is XMLBuddy free? Didn't find it for FREE. Ravi. Sean Corfield wrote: On 7/7/07, [Sunshine Tech Solutions] Ravi Gehlot [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I was asked to convert a CSV file to XML.

For example, you *could* use CFHTTP to read in the CSV file as a query and then convert that to simple XML by any number of tricks. Heck, you could use CFWDDX to turn the query into very basic XML but I wouldn't like the output much. Also, is there a free XML plugin for Eclipse? Yes.

Re: from CSV to XML
Aaron, I want to choose a format and get this done by Monday. They want to see something done by Monday. Whether it will work or not with the Portal I will have to see it with them on Monday. I understand that the Portal understands a type of XML construct and it will brake if another fashion is used. I just want to format it in XML so they know I know what I am doing. Later on Monday, I can adapt it to what it needs to be. There will be a meeting and I will bring this up. It was a piece of work so far to get where I got. First, the CSV file was delimited by pound signs so I had to use the replace function to replace it with commas then to REreplace it to get rid of unwanted spaces. Before this replace could be possible CFDIRECTORY and CFFILE was used to read only CSV type of files. Then CFHTTP was used to read the delimited CSV file and build a query in memory. All I need is to use that query in memory built from CFHTTP to build an XML file. Any suggestions? Ravi.

Re: from CSV to XML
Wow! This makes a lot more sense now Dave. So the WDDX from the CFWDDX means the type of XML struct used. Great. Thanks, Ravi. Dave Watts wrote: But Ravi told use he has a CSV file he wants to be formated in XML. For me it is clear: a CSV file is a format to represent a table. A table can be formated in XML, and there are not thousands of ways to represent a table in XML. Sure there are. I can think of several offhand; WDDX, the Query object returned by invoking a SOAP CFC, and the .NET representation of a recordet in XML.

Re: from CSV to XML
Sean, I have to say THANK YOU! I got the file converted in seconds with the software you indicated me. Now I know what wddx means and I also know how the XML file needs to look like. I won't sleep tonight till I read and learn about XML. Will try the ColdFusion tags also. Ravi. -- --- Ravi Gehlot.

Re: from CSV to XML
Cool. That's why they say that XML is not a language but a meta-language. Unlike HTML that it has its own tags, XML can have tags created by the developer accordingly by creating DTD or schemas. Ravi. Dave Watts wrote: Is there a list of specific XML languages? No, because anyone can create their own language by creating a DTD or schema. They company has a portal that knows how to treat XML data so it let's the end user upload an XML file that is then imported into a SQL database through their portal. You will need to learn their language.

Re: Server Error
Hey Pete, Check to see if your version of access works fine with ColdFusion 7.0.2. Sometimes, you have to download a special driver and install it on your ColdFusion directory so that your datasources may work ok. Just a thought, Ravi. Peter Tanswell wrote: Hi there I have recently installed ColdFusion 7.02 on Windows Vista. It all appeared to be working fine, until I had to go an set up datasource for a microsoft access database. Then I tried setting up a mapping. When I tried both of these I get the following error. IO error on server communication. Basically it doesnt seem to be able to browse to folders on the server. I have googled this and found information on the Adobe website saying I had to make a change to the web.xml file in the web-inf folder. I checked this file and it looked fine. I'm stumped on this one. Just wondering if anyone else might have experienced this problem and if so how they resolved it. I can set up datasource if its a MySQL database.

Re: Server Error
Pete,
You can also try to connect to your datasource using a JDBC driver
like this:
jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=[Full path to
your database file];DriverID22;

Re: Server Error
Pete, I am a Linux user. I haven't even given Vista a try yet but I heard that it has many permissions issues. Ravi. Peter Tanswell wrote: Hi there I dont think its an access problem - it was working with CF7.02 previously without any problems. I think it has to be a CF7-Vista issue and quite likely a CF error or permission setting. I get the same error message when I try to browse for files when trying to set up mappings.
