RE: ad weights
Just thought I would throw out a different angle... Instead of assigning weights to each ad, why not assign it to a weight range? For instance, your cheapest ad is $.01 and your biggest ad is $10.00 (which is constantly in flux). Take the range and divide it into however many groups you want, say 10 for consistency's sake. Then come up with a priority algorithm for the 10 groups (taking into account a possible 0 ads in a group). So your ad at $4.01 would be in group 5, but if the top got bumped up to $10.10 it would bump it down to group 4. So your example of 99 $.01 and one $5 ad would show a high priority to the $5 ad and a lesser chance to be seen at the $.01 rate as group 1 would not have as much exposure.

I'm building pay per click ads for HoF (in place of banner ads and yes, the list ads are coming off). One thing is that I need to give each ad a weight in relation to another to show how often it should come up. I've thought of a few ideas and wanted to hear what others think. Basically, there's a table of ads that's dumped into an application array for caching. The question is, how to dump the ads in order to give 'high paying' ads more show than 'low paying' (or free) ads. This is one idea: When this table is dumped into an application array, a position in the array is given for each ad for each dollar (or part) it has. .01 is 1 position. $1 is 1 position. $1.01 is 2 positions. This is rather simple and works well for small amounts of ads, but when you get a lot, it fails. ex: 99 ads at .01 and 1 ad at $5 will equal an array of 104 items. The big paying ad has a greater chance of being seen in relation to any other ad, but is buried under all the low paying ads. Another idea is to have sub arrays for each price grouping. In this example, the chances of a $5 text ad coming up is far greater than a $1 ad and if a $5 comes up, then it'll be one of several $5 ads. This may work and I'm building it now.

Hi again, What I eventually am trying to do is to create a drag/drop menu where you can open and close the folders and add new folders - like Windows 2K.For this application, all movieclips/text boxes are created dynamically from Microsoft SQL.What I've thought anout doing is 1) to have a parent movie clip that is transparent.On top of this would be (1) a child MovieClip that is duplicated and that would hold the images of an open/close folder or a file;and (2) a text box that can hold the names of the menu items. 2) A similar way to acomplish this (I think), would be to have a text box with html set to true and HTMLtext = eval(IMG src="" + Name) and then addMovieClip.addListener(myTextField) I can't get the Img thing to work though I know it should in CFMX2004. 3) of course another way is with one movie clip that is next to its corresponding text.So the two are not really combined at all, but their instance names will be such that They always appear next to each other. The picture and text have to be combined or related in some fashion so that they always appear next to each other.This is because the user can add a folder or drag a folder (and its text) to another location in the menu. my question is: 1) how to create a duplicated movie clip ontop of another movie clip (for Scenario 1) 2) Any suggestions/comments 3) is there another good Flash forum?Perhaps one similar to this one for ColdFusion?

RE: ECommerce practices
To answer some of your questions My favorite way to pass variables from page to page is to create a struct of the form variables and then throw it in a wddx using the session scope. You could write a struct for each section and keep rolling it into wddx's. Then in the end roll them out and append the different structs into one which makes it easy to pass the variables as an argumentcollection in a CFC. -Original Message- From: Cutter (CF-Talk) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2004 7:10 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: ECommerce practices Just looking for other's insight. Can't think of a better group to ask... I'm setting up a custom ecomm area (current is a setup using the JASC component my boss implemented before I got here). What the big boss would like is something that wouldn't fit into the general templates you find all over, so I'm working from scratch on most of this. I'm trying to find what would be the best method for initially handling order details. Most of the items are apparel. The user would first select a category, then select a specific item/design from a thumbnail. Next they would be shown a larger image with the different colors it would be offered in. The user would select the color they want, taking them to the next screen where different size options would be available. The user would enter in the quantity of each size they may want. The next step would verify the item/design, basic product detail, color, sizes and quantities, and the price (showing price differences for oversized products as well). At this point it would then continue to the basics (name, addy, payment, etc.) My question is this. Every step of this process is some type of form. I could use hidden form fields to carry over all of the information from screen to screen, but this seems a little tedious, inelegant, and possibly somewhat insecure. What is suggested process in this type of situation? Should I set up some kind of struct var to handle the details? Would this best be handled within the session or client scopes? How does one best prevent race conditions? The end run is to write the details to a db once the order is processed, but I've seen what can happen when writing the details to a db from the get go and then having the user cancel the order or the payment is not approved (not my design, and it was ugly...) So, any suggestions are welcome and appreciated. TIA Cutter _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Dynamic variable names in QuerySetCell
I'm trying to avoid Evaluate and have hit a wall. I am trying to dynamically call column names from qResults and set the values in a QuerySetCell - val1, val2, val3, val4, etc... Here's an example: cfset Monthly2003= QueryNew(month, dollar_amount) cfset QueryAddRow(Monthly2003, 12) cfloop index=LoopCount from=1 to=12 cfset QuerySetCell(Monthly2003, month, curMonth, LoopCount) cfset QuerySetCell(Monthly2003, dollar_amount, qResults[valLoopCount], LoopCount) /cfloop The second QuerySetCell is what is killing me. It gives the wretched, Complex objects cannot be converted to simple values error. -- Ryan Kime mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web Developer Webco Industries [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

I'll note that you didn't bother to tell me.Thanks. You're welcome. :) Thanks for the explanation, that orphan cities thing is fubar'd (thanks NOAA). What a bummer. I can't wait for the day that they get with the program and offer XML feeds of their data. -Original Message- From: Todd Finney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, December 06, 2003 12:37 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re:weather feed Not as many as the other one, but some of those feeds are not right (wrong city/state). http://weather.boygenius.com/oklahoma-miami_beach.xml http://weather.boygenius.com/oklahoma-miami_beach.xml I promise you there is no Miami Beach, OklahomaI would've already gone there, oh well. Late chiming in, perhaps this is still relevant to someone. The orphan cities are a consequence of the NOAA date that I'm parsing to generate the XML files.The NOAA data is stored in files that look like this: SOUTHWEST OKLAHOMA CITYSKY/WX TMP DPRH WIND PRESREMARKS CLINTONCLOUDY 21857 N330.48F HOBARTCLOUDY 231057 NE9 30.49F WCI13 The file is called something like 'weather-roundup-ok.txt'.All my script does is say ok, we're looking at ok, that's Oklahoma, so take these lines and put them in files called 'oklahoma-clinton.xml' and 'oklahoma-hobart.xml'. The problem with this is that the NOAA isn't really strict about state boundaries in their data.New York City, for example, appears in the New York file, the Pennsylvania file, the New Jersey file, and (oddly enough) the Massachusetts and Maine files. Well, fugly data calls for fugly parsing, so I have this subroutine that says If you see New York City, Massachuettts, it's really talking about New York City, New York.This works fine, except that it requires me to have a line in my script for every NOAA geographical generalization.Every once and a while, a new one pops up, and you get things like oklahoma-miami_beach.xml. This is noted in the changelog on the site: 20030902 - I think I have all of the orphan cities taken care of. If you notice any that I've missed, please tell me. I'll note that you didn't bother to tell me.Thanks. Anyhoo, the file you listed above would have contained the correct weather information for Miami Beach, it would have just had the wrong state name.I don't consider this to be a big deal, because if you want the weather for Miami Beach, the place to look is florida-miami_beach.xml.

Memberships are based on an annual subscription. However, there are sometime breaks in one's membership due to cancellation, expired, whatever. So I will give 2 examples of some memberships. Example Member A joined 7/1/2001 and their current expiration is 7/31/2004. They have been good member for 3 years and renewed every year without incident. In my history table I have the following for Member A's EXPIRATION DATES OLDVAL NEWVAL 07/31/2003 07/31/2004 07/31/2002 07/31/2003 07/31/2001 07/31/2002 Example Member B joined 7/1/2001 and their current expiration is 8/31/2004. This member forgot to renew one year and rejoined in August. In my history table I have the following for Member B's EXPIRATION DATES OLDVAL NEWVAL 07/31/2003 08/31/2004 07/31/2002 07/31/2003 07/31/2001 07/31/2002 So on my report I would like to see the following to determine how long their memberships have been contiguous and gauge how long between rejoins for lapses in membership. This data could be kept in a temporary table. MEMBER A 07/1/2001 07/31/2004 MEMBER B 08/1/2001 08/31/2004 MEMBER B 07/1/2001 07/31/2003 If someone can provide me a solution I will send them a surprise via mail, we got some cool stuff around my place of business.

Check the front page of http://www.houseoffusion.com/ http://www.houseoffusion.com/Michael has some examples of problems and solutions. I had the same thing happen to me when we upgraded. I bet the solution might be something like this: ODBC services do not start - This is an interesting error that comes up once in a blue moon and probably has to do with a failure somewhere in the install. Basically, once you install and are about to go to the migration tool, you find that you just can't log into the admin to finish your migration. The reason is that the ODBC services are not running. You try to start them up and they fail. Why? Because there's an error in their config files. The fix is rather easy.

Let it run through the rest of the setup 5. Went back to Services and made sure everything could start. Did you go back to the Administrator after going through the XML files?

Sort of a tangential application in the Apple Sherlock vein I've got a Mac, and that too was my initial reaction. But I see it as more open and extendable than Sherlock.

My first thought would be recreating the game tracker from mlb.com. On that, you can listen to the game and they keep you updated with a diamond showing runners on base and who is up to bat (with their stats); all in real time.

RE: DWMX 2004 Impressions
Sandy, It's built into DWMX and 2004. When you have a file open, you expand the Design panel, right click in the panel and select Design Time Style Sheets Then you select a CSS file and it will apply that style while you develop the page. Good for when you have your dynamic site split into headers and footers. I'm just hoping that 2004 added the option for applying a Design Time CSS to an entire Site (I requested it in the wish form when DWMX came out).

If your clients are small enough where the cost of CF is prohibitive it may be likely that the cost of managing an Intranet is also prohibitive (although they may be doing it anyway and have never done a cost analysis). I'll agree with that, but certainly the use of certain software e.g. CF could be what tips the scale. If that is the case, then a cheaper implementation of CFML (BlueDragon) can certainly help in that regard. It definitely has an effect, but in most cases (and certainly not in CF's case) the cost of software is very small compared to maintenance and general infrastructure costs. Even managing a small, single Intranet server using free software can be (often surprisingly) very costly once you do a full resource map/prediction - especially when extended to the life of the server. All that being said every little bit does help. ;^) If software costs are lower then you total project costs COULD definitely be lower (but often aren't due to other factors not commonly taken into account). Many hosting companies are hosting their Intranet at public hosts for this reason. There are some hosts that do nothing but traditional Intranet applications along with email (Exchange hosting, for example, is pretty common due to the cost and complexity of managing an Exchange server). That may be, but there are serious issues with outsourcing internal IT resources externally that many of these companies may not be aware of. One example of
RE: DWMX 2004 - Whats new for us?
That's a $10 a month difference and they list out versions they use. I see that pricing as more agreeable for both sides and I think it's great that prices are coming down. There's a threshold where you start to lose money on every new customer and I'm sure it's different for everyone. But I remember Dell got into hosting and were offering $16.95 plans with CF. Guess how long that lasted? About a year. And they are a huge company, so it makes me wonder about the smaller hosts and their ability to sustain at that level of price vs. features without cutting corners. Just want to make sure people ask the right questions when they look for hosting.

Paste this on the end of URL from your CFMX-based server: %255%\ What is this error and why is it doing this? Can anyone else replicate it?

RE: WOT: Securing word docs, excel, etc in a web app
Well, if the ISP/Host is on top of things, they'll let you have a folder outside your web root. Then you can call the files with something like cfcontent (if they allow it). If those two pieces fall into place, then you can devise some type of encryption string to mask the variables which call the files, or you could have a table with IDs and pointers to the files in the folder outside of the web root. Hope that helps, Ryan -Original Message- From: Griffin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2003 1:11 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: WOT: Securing word docs, excel, etc in a web app Hi, This is off topic, but I am sure many of you have had to deal with issues such as these in the past. I have been living in a bubble for the past 3 years and have developped many web apps in CF, ASP and JSP on secure networks with no Internet connection. For the first time, I am building an Internet based web app in CF. Creating the members only portion with user authentication and so on is no problem. However, the site's main focus is to share research data among members. Most members want to upload MS Word docs, MS Excel docs and PDFs. The site will be hosted at an ISP, so using IIS or NT security is not an option. So here is my dilema, once I have uploaded documents that I only want members to access, how can I achieve something better than security through obscurity and prevent people from stumbling on the docs by guessing or as the result of a search engine search? Same question for images. There will be images in .jpg and .gif format which are destined for members eyes only. Any recommendations appreciated.

RE: CrystalTech says ALL variables must be locked
You also have to look at what the market will bear. You will most likely be able to charge more for a VPS as they are getting more than just app isolation. I think the CFMX J2EE benefit would be a hard sell to potential hosting customers. Therefore, it is not so much your cost per month, but your profit after expenses. -Original Message- From: Jim Davis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2003 4:29 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CrystalTech says ALL variables must be locked I don't know - it seems like more hosts offering VPS are limiting themselves to 4 instances per physical machine (at about $200 a month). I would guess on the same machine you could host 8-12 instances of MX just as comfortably for $70-$100 per month (with all the trimmings of course). Performance for a such a solution may be better than a VM solution (then again it may not be) and it would most likely be cheaper to set up/maintain from the hosts perspective (for a VM you need an OS license for example). So the cost seems about the same or cheaper to me - it's soley a case of whether the market will respond to it.

RE: SSL with CFMX
SSL is only between the client (web browser) and the server (IIS, Apache, etc.) so CFMX is not really a factor. Actually, I recall people having problems with InstantSSL and CFMX because the Sun JVM didn't have it listed as a cert authority (around Dec '02). That's why I tied it to CFMX. -Original Message- From: Howie Hamlin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2003 11:23 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: SSL with CFMX Basically, SSL is only between the client (web browser) and the server (IIS, Apache, etc.) so CFMX is not really a factor.

RE: One search for Spidered Pages, Oracle Basis DBs
I've done something like this. I've got a page-based collection and some varying DB-based collections. Depending on the parameters passed, it will add the collections to a list and then use the collection param of cfsearch to display the list. Then you get a nice unified result set with the custom being used by each collection to drill down through the data. Keep in mind though that the more collections you add, the slower it gets. As for the multiple datasource idea from Stephen, I'm not sure.

I thought that you had to feed cfindex a (single) query object. If you can indeed only feed it a single query object, do you propose I unify two queries from separate datasources? If so, do you know a better way than looping one of the queries and doing query functions to append rows? Okay, say I do get both of these DBs indexed in the same collection, are you saying it's also possible to get my Verity K2 spidered index in there as well!? :-/ Thanks, Jamie On Wed, 11 Jun 2003 18:04:50 +0100, in cf-talk you wrote: Jamie, Why not use one Verity collection which is populated by data from your multiple datasources.

When the user wants to see the record itself you use the record id, held in the key field in your collection, and the datasource identifier from one of the custom fields to decide what page to display or what database to get the single record from.

OT: Cross platform MM license issues
Question for everyone... Has anyone else on this list gone through my current situation? (Let me preface this by saying I was an avid CF Studio user and was purchased a copy of DWMX for work. I have grown to use and love the DWMX environment and wanted to use the same thing on my personal laptop. I am not a WYSIWYG junkie.) I purchased a copy of Dreamweaver 3 two or three year ago for my Windows desktop box. Just recently, I purchased a G4 PowerBook and wanted to move all my development efforts to my laptop. Last item to move was Dreamweaver. I called MM Sales and had my credit card in hand ready to buy the $199 upgrade, but guess what? Macromedia will not let you do a cross platform upgrade!!! They told me I would have to buy another full version to run it on my new machine! I am NOT going to plunk down $400 for something I already have. I think Macromedia should review this policy as they just lost a sale, and I have now lost some productivity as I will have to learn something new. At least Adobe let me do a cross platform upgrade of my Photoshop license! Thanks MM Has anyone else gone through this and what did you do?

RE: OT Best Practice User Validating
This is ok, but it is so easy for people to get hotmail accounts that it isn't the best way. You know, you could always block users from using free email addresses in your forms. As for validation, you could collect credit card info and a billing address and make sure they match the user. Probably not the best way to go about it. Maybe client certs? -Original Message- From: Paul Giesenhagen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2003 1:54 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: OT Best Practice User Validating We have a sensitive site that requires that we know WHO is on the site and that the information that have given us is valid.

You're close. Here's a different approach for you. Keep the Check that file exists and look in the Custom Errors tab for the website in IIS MMC. Right-click on websitePropertiesCustom Errors tab...scroll down to 404 and either keep the standard IIS error page or Edit and select URL from Message Type and put in a custom CF error page. That way you could run application.cfm. In addition, you might want to stop and start all the CF services PLUS stop and start the World Wide Web Publishing service. HTH, Ryan -Original Message- From: Benjamin S. Rogers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 31, 2003 3:45 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: File Not Found Error Hello, We're testing ColdFusion MX and it seems it performs a bit differently than earlier versions of ColdFusion in regards to non-existent files. Specifically, in earlier versions of ColdFusion, if we unchecked the Check that file exists option in the IIS application extension mapping for .cfm pages, then we could trap requests for non-existent .cfm pages in the Application.cfm. This no longer seems to be the case with ColdFusion MX. ColdFusion MX throws a generic File not found error when requesting non-existent files. In other words, ColdFusion MX doesn't run the Application.cfm before throwing the error as prior versions of ColdFusion do. I've tried editing the web.xml file and adding the following servlet mapping: servlet-mapping servlet-nameCfmServlet/servlet-name url-pattern*/url-pattern /servlet-mapping That seems to work for those folks using search engine safe URLs, but it didn't work in our case. We even went so far as to boot the server and delete all the class files after making the change. Nada. Anyway, if we're missing something, or anybody has any ideas, we'd appreciate it.

RE: Coldfusion and Verity Results ???
(I'm on MX so if something is different, let me know) You need to look at your collections first - go back and read the cf docs on collections too. OK, I see in your code you are using custom1 to return the URL in some cases. There's a better way by using the Return URL field, then calling #url#. It will append the location and file to the url. Then you would have 2 custom fields for other uses. So here's an example: Collection Name: itdocs Directory Path: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\intranet\docs\ (making this up) Return URL: http://intranet.neath-porttalbot.gov.uk/itintranet/itdocuments/documen ts/ Now when you run the collection on this format... a href=#url##Title#/a You would get a href=http://intranet.neath-porttalbot.gov.uk/itintranet/itdocuments/documen ts/foo.docFoo/a For DB based Collections, say you were running through an articles query and the Articles table had an article_id. You would run the collection with a URLpath of the template that displays articles (i.e. view.cfm) - http://www.domain.com/view.cfm?article_id=;. Then for the custom1, you return the article_id so you would get URLs like a href=http://www.domain.com/view.cfm?article_id=3;Something/a Here's one of my db-base collections: cfquery name=NewsResult datasource=foo ... /cfquery cfindex collection=foo_news_collection action=refresh type=custom body=Title, Long_Description key=news_id urlpath=http://foo.com/news/view.cfm?news_id=; custom1=news_id query=NewsResult Then this format would work again and you only have to account for cfif isDefined(custom1) around the custom1 variable: a href=#url##custom1##Title#/a HTH, Ryan -Original Message- From: Ian Vaughan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2003 9:33 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Coldfusion and Verity Results ???

Anyone got the URL? Thanks. I saw the original article on /. the day it came out -- and there was a link right at the bottom on methodology. Wanted to chime in about that on this discussion and link is gone. eWeek does that for every article with statistics that I've ever really wanted to read -- details are there, then gone. grr. In the text of the article that's still there, they mention the MySQL folks tuning it and the 2/3 performance drop and the JDBC drivers for MSSQL. Of course they still have the link for the zip of all the code :) -- Chris Montgomerymonty @ airtightweb.com Airtight Web Services http://www.airtightweb.com Web Development, Web Project Management, Software Sales 210-490-2415 ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Sports XML Feed
Seems as though you can't get to the XML/RSS links through the website, but the feeds are still there. I'm like you, don't know if that's considered legal or not to still be using it. I never saw a press release or email notification of the changes. Too bad they don't offer a few XML/RSS feeds for free (or at least cheaper than $6K). -Original Message- From: Joshua Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 11:02 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Sports XML Feed Not sure if it's still free ... I think maybe the JavaScript/FLASH version is free but it's branded by Moreover, but the XML feeds are paid service or something. I'm really not sure, it's been a _long_ time since I've used it. It was free when I was using it. Actually I just checked a site that was using the XML feed and it's still working, so if it's paid it still works for those who aren't paying. I guess I need to contact Moreover and make sure that site's still legal :) Thanks, Joshua Miller Head Programmer / IT Manager Garrison Enterprises Inc. www.garrisonenterprises.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] (704) 569-9044 ext. 254 * Any views expressed in this message are those of the individual sender, except where the sender states them to be the views of Garrison Enterprises Inc.
