Re: Issue with Changes (?) to CFDocument and a background image.
I've created two test documents that can be viewed publicly so everybody can see what I'm talking about. 1st, a Coldfusion only version of the file: http://www.internationalhelpers.co.gg/test/coldfusion.cfm The styling will be just a little off, because the CSS is specific for the PDF doc. The card background image is showing as it should be here. 2nd, here's the cfdocument version. It's the exact same file as Coldfusion, just with the cfdocument tag added back in to give me a PDF: http://www.internationalhelpers.co.gg/test/pdf.cfm NOTHING I've tried - setting transparency on everything, screwing with z-index ... This is the exact code that was working great prior to the upgrade to CF10. I'm at a loss as to how to get it to show the darned background images again. Help!?!?! Since the upgrade, the image is still being called, but you only see JUST a few pixels of it to the right and bottom of the cards. It's like everything layered on top of the backgroup is opaque. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:360139 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Checking if a file exist - then choice to overwrite or not ...
I'm working on building a document. Got almost everything working perfect,
except ...
When a user tries to upload a file into the depo, I'm checking to see if
there's already a file with that name. If there IS, the offer them a choice to
cancel, or overwrite.
So, something like
cffile action=UPLOAD filefield=doc destination=C:\MyPart\temp\ ... blah
/
cfif FileExists(C:\MyPart\#filetoupload#) !--- this works - no problem
---
!--- here's where I get into trouble I need to do the pseudo code below ---
!--- SHOW AN ALERT HERE: ---
THERE'S ALREADY A FILE WITH THIS NAME. DO YOU WANT TO OVERWRITE?
Choice NO {
!--- STOP PROCESSING AND RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL FORM --- }
Choice YES {
!--- UPLOAD/MOVE the file where it needs to go and overwrite the
original --- }
cfelse !--- there's not a duplicate, so do your file stuff ---
cffile action=upload ... blah /
/cfif
I've tried various javascript alerts ... but CF either keeps processing past
the alert, or just does nothing with it... like:
script type=text/javascript
! function makesure() {
if (confirm('Overwrite?')) {
return true;
} else {
alert('Deletion of this item cancelled.');
window.location = 'test_files.cfm';
return false;
}
}();
/script
There's GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY!! Anybody got a link to a good tutorial or
anything for this? So far, I've not turned up anything on Google that works...

Re: rss.cfc problem in IE9
I don't think that's a bug. Any XML metacharacters in an XML element or attribute must be escaped. The escape sequence for the single quote XML metacharacter is apos;. The only thing I've been able to get work in the title is to just strip them out COMPLETELY. Anything else gets me apos back in all the titles... cfset request.titlemsclean = #replace(request.titlemsclean, ', , ALL)# What I REALLY don't understand is - why do they appear correctly in the description? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:352187 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: rss.cfc problem in IE9
I think I've found the problem. I've got a stupid number of cleaning routines that everything goes through before it gets to the cffeed tag - mainly because the client does EVERYTHING in MS Word, then paste. At the end of the clean chain, before cffeed I do this: cfset myStruct.item[currentRow].title = #xmlformat(request.titlemsclean)# / If I REMOVE the xmlformat and just do this: cfset myStruct.item[currentRow].title = #request.titlemsclean# / All my problems seem to go away. OK, somebody tell me WHY? I though xmlformat was supposed to escape the problems I was having... ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:352189 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: rss.cfc problem in IE9
Perhaps add cfcontent before the output to set the right type for RSS? I've been playing with this for the last few hours. Version 1, which uses rss.cfc does this: cfcontent type=text/xml reset=true cfoutput#rssxml#/cfoutput This works fine in almost everything, except IE9 (for me). I see a blank page, although viewing the source looks correct. Client sees (also in IE9), run-on unformatted text. Really odd. Looking at the source, header looks like: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1 ? rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf=http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#; xmlns:dc=http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/; xmlns=http://purl.org/rss/1.0/; I've gone ahead and written a test page using cffeed (CF8 version). Same result - almost... Still can't see it in IE9, works everywhere else, but another bug has cropped up. In the TITLE there's a single quote/apostrophe issue - regardless of what I do, I end up with Tomapos;s Hardware. Nothing seems to fix that. However, in the description (body), it displays correctly as Tom's Harware. Go figure. If I check the actual string before it goes into the cffeed tag, it's showing a single quote Tom's Hardware. Even stripping that out and replacing it with #39; doesn't work. Still displays as apos; in the feed title. Code for cleaning this stuff for both description and title looks like: cfset request.titlenohtml = #rereplacenocase(pr.title,[^]*,,all)# / cfset request.titlemsclean=#ReplaceMicrosoftChars(request.titlenohtml)# / cfset request.titlemsclean = #replace(request.titlemsclean, nbsp;, , ALL)# cfset request.titlemsclean = #replace(request.titlemsclean, ndash;, -, ALL)# cfset request.titlemsclean = #replace(request.titlemsclean, amp;, , ALL)# cfset myStruct.item[currentRow].title = #xmlFormat(request.titlemsclean)# / Header for the feed, now using RSS 2.0 instead of 1.0, looks like: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? rss xmlns:rdf=http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#; xmlns:itunes=http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd; xmlns:dc=http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/; xmlns:taxo=http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/taxonomy/; version=2.0 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:352168 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: struct/array problem with empty cells
Weird - it only include the FIRST empty element Actually, if there are duplicate values for any of the fpcomm cells, it will only display the FIRST one. So, if fpcomm1 and fpcomm2 contains Bob has News, it's only going to include fpcomm1 in the array. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351661 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
