RE: Dynamic GIGs/JPEGs

2000-08-15 Thread Wayne, Kurt

I believe I've seen on an NOAA site a JAVA application that allows for
multiple images to be put in a type of "player" (with stop, forward,
reverse, play buttons) without loss of image quality.  If you're interested
I'll try and find the URL so you can see it.

What exactly do you mean by "displaying a set sequence"?

If you mean placing graphics on a page, then just holding the names in a
database in a sorted order and just placing the HTML on the page

If you mean switching the image from one to another while the user is
watching, then you'd have to build some JavaScript - or put them all into
one big animated GIF (with loss of quality on the JPEGs)

If I've mis-understood, then please expand on what you mean...

Can CF be run on a machine which is also running Service Pack 6 Alpha?

2000-08-10 Thread Wayne, Kurt


We're trying to move a web site to a designated box with our host
(Navisite).  However, we've been told that there are problems with
installing CF on a machine using this SP.  The person who said this didn't
specify what the problems were...I'm having to rely on it second-hand.

What problems are there, and are there ways around it?

Thanks, gang.

RE: I need a host. Intermedia testimonials

2000-08-08 Thread Wayne, Kurt


Here's www.america.net .  They've had CF service since 1998, I believe, but
my wife and I are just now getting started with them on it for our personal
business, so I can't give you an eyewitness account of how easy it is to
work with them on this.

2 Months ago i would have said Interland... but they started to move crap
around and our database hasn't been put back on our server YET... its been
over a month now with no db, I'm pretty pissed at it, and maybe its just one
of those things. Their price is ok, the site is ok, they have sql.

I need a host. and I gather from cftalk that Intermedia is the winner. I am 
interested in hearing testimonials or other alternatives.

1 client, 10 domains and growing.

Okay guys,
I would like to know what everyone considers important in a CF hosting
environment.
Are you looking for a development environment, or a place to host things for
your customers? or both?
what other requirements do you have for a host?

In case you couldn't tell, we are considering opening our servers up to
outside
developers

I've been asked to evaluate Spectra and Enterprise (and have no experience with any such program)

2000-08-01 Thread Wayne, Kurt


I appreciate the help from anyone who can provide advice:

My company just acquired another company whose web site dwarfs our own, but
which we'll still be assimilating.  Our site runs ASP connecting to SQL
Server, while theirs is Cold Fusion connecting to Oracle.  The combined site
will be Cold Fusion (YES!) to SQL Server, and will be quite massive.  My
manager asked me to evaluate the content management tools Allaire Spectra
and Enterprise, with which I have no experience.

My questions:

1.  What questions should I ask regarding our own systems (i.e. hardware,
expectations) before we evaluate these two programs?

2.  Is it possible that we might need only one without the other?

3.  Where's the best place in terms of price to go shopping for these
programs.

Thanks.

Kurt J. Wayne

RE: Scalability stories, please? (Sorry - an addendum)

2000-07-26 Thread Wayne, Kurt


I meant to say "My manager is apparently considering CF in place of ASP to
handle the combined job, but he needs to be convinced on some things,
chiefly the scalability issue."

Thanks

Subject: Scalability stories, please?


I've just started work in an office whose web site uses ASP to connect to
SQL Server databases.  This company just bought out a firm in NYC which has
been using Cold Fusion to connect to an Oracle database.

I was told that after all the other company's content is absorbed we'll want
to run ASP to connect to Oracle.  However, my new manager asked me privately
about scalability issues...all he's seen is the stuff on Allaire's web site.
We'll eventually be running the site with dual machines (one a mirror)
connecting remotely to the server which contains the Oracle stuff.  We
anticipate hundreds of thousands of hits daily on the combined site.  My
question to you all...how do you think CF will handle the connection to
Oracle with the anticipated traffic.  (My previous CF experience has been
either on company intranets or small company web sites...this will be the
highest volume of hits I've worked with.

Thanks,

Kurt J. Wayne
