Re: FireFox getElementById issue?
MemberName should have ID and NAME
If it works in IE, that means that MemberName only has NAME since IE
resolves the getElementById function to both the ID and NAME of the object
in this code example, both selects will work in IE but only the second
one will work in FF
select name=MemberName onchange=alertList();
option value=/value
option value=/value
option value=/value
/select
select name=MemberName2 id=MemberName2 onchange=alertList2();
option value=/value
option value=/value
option value=/value
/select
script
function alertList(){
var list = document.getElementById(MemberName);
alert(list.options.length);
}
function alertList2(){
var list = document.getElementById(MemberName2);
alert(list.options.length);
}
/script

Strange rounding issue displaying numbers
Hi all, I have a weird issue with some number formatting, or more specifically I think it is a rounding issue. I have a cfc result that is being used in a query of queries, and the results are being output into a table of numeric values, like an invoice. On my local development environment the figures are displaying correctly using this code: #decimalformat(variables.qPayments.refundamt * variables.mult)# #NumberFormat(variables.qPayments.refundamt, __.__)# #LSNumberFormat(variables.qPayments.refundamt * variables.mult, __.__)# So a value of 24.95 will actually display as 24.95. As soon as I move the code to our testing server it rounds the numbers out! so the value becomes 24.00. Both servers are running cf8. Anyone got any ideas?

The RegEx pattern is what's insisting on content there. Add a ? at the end
of it to allow 0 or 1 of the pattern, and that should then allow the field to
be blank.

Mark, I checked with AuthNet and you're right, they are not requiring a client cert. So it looks like this will be a bit less of a concern, assuming that CFHTTP is using the same protocol as the underlying web server (most of which are going to be at least v3.0). It may however still be a problem on some older CF versions, I would expect CF5 might have problems with it. In corresponding with AuthNet, they did say that they will try to roll out the requirement on the test server first so we can check our sites and make sure they are still working, but I don't have a date from them yet on when they expect to be able to do that. --- Mary Jo Sminkey CFWebstore, ColdFusion-based Ecommerce http://www.cfwebstore.com ~| 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:319524 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
AW: Query Caching Limit?
Robert, did you have any performance issues before? BTW: 100 queries is a very low number. I have seen servers that use the highest amount possible which was and it still wasn't enough... Anyway. Just imagine a query consisting out of 2 rows with let's say 25 columns each containing around 25 bytes - makes 2*25*25 = 1250 bytes or approx 1KB (plus some metadata so around 1.5KB). So with 100 queries you will have around 100KB to 150KB which is nothing at all!!! So you can really increase this number to a higher amount without any issue. If you are querying caching let's say 100 records the same structure you would be reserving around 10 MB which still is nothing. Just really calculate it a little yourself and then increase the number until it suits you. Now for your newly popped up issue you should definitely check the basic configuration.

Re: Binary output in CFContent ?
Ok, I think what I hear is this: If a user actually clicks on a link to the word document, then you're calling it read. So that's easy. On your DocDisplay.cfm (which I'm assuming is the file with the cfcontent) put in a SQL insert there to mark the document as read, then use your cfcontent to send the file. Then, on your page with the listing of the document, query the database to see if there's an entry for that user. Is that right? If it still doesn't make sense, let me know and I'll throw together some sample code. Thanks for the ideas. All I am after is when a user who will be authenticated by CF with the GAL I.E. cfset user = listLast(cgi.REMOTE_USER,\) If they have not read a document, on the docdisplay,.cfm page it will display next to the document listing 'not read', if they have opened the word doc and read it (could this be done by embedding a link to a cfm page in the word doc which would pass the users details to the database, and would set the status to 'viewed') i.e. ID, Name, LoginID, Document, Status, Date Then on the docdisplay.cfm page, next to the document it will display 'viewed' for that user.? Does this make sense, and is this the best way of implementing this? The problem I am having is in the link from the word doc to the cfm page to set the status and time etc, how could I do this? i.e. what parameters would I need to pass from the link in the word doc to the cfm page? Hope this makes sense? Hmmm Well, this is telling the browser to actually download the document. My only thought would be to do an inline word document with a frameset and have a frame at the top with your checkbox. I'm not exactly sure that's what you're looking for or even the most portable solution, but it might work.

Re: Question about next/prev browsing
Our data is constantly changing so caching really wasn't an option and we saw no need to retrieve 10k records from the db but only show the user 25 or 50 or 100 of them at a time. So in Oracle you can set a start/limit in the query like so: (Might be a syntax error in there as I haven't had any coffee yet :-) ) Select * From ( Select rownum rnum, p.* From ( SELECT count(1) Over() totalCount, a.columns, b.columns FROM table a, table b WHERE a.id = b.id ORDER BY a.name ) p Where rownum = #Abs((start + Limit) - 1)# ) Where rnum = #start# The paging is simple enough to implement and even easier using EXT. Obviously if you're not using Oracle this won't work but I'm sure the other db's have a similar way to accomplish this.

RE: CFHTTP and SSL v3
Mary Jo, Hmmm... You know the more I think of it the more I believe you should only be concerned about CF 5. SSL 3.0 came out in 1996 and I think it's the version that supports chaining certificates. I have certainly dealt with cert chain issues in both CF 6 and CF 7 - so I'm of a mind to believe those must be SSL 3.0 compliant. Also, I think that 3.0 can respond to 2.0 requests... It's really about dictating the encryption standard that's used. But perhaps Dave or someone can shed a bit more light on it. -Mark Mark A.

Someone on the Railo list did a little test that showed that CF7, CF8 and Railo all did a connection using a v3 SSL cipher so we're fairly sure that those servers at least will be okay. --- Mary Jo Sminkey CFWebstore, ColdFusion-based Ecommerce http://www.cfwebstore.com ~| 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:319532 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
Re: CFHTTP and SSL v3
That would have been my assumption as well, the support from AuthNet seemed to think otherwise, but I certainly don't trust their knowledge of CF and its inner workings. Which still brings me back to trying to determine exactly *which* versions of CF do support SSL v3.0 by default. Like you, I'm hoping they get the test server ready sooner rather than later so we can run some tests with different versions and see what works and what doesn't and go from there. I think this is less a CF issue and more a JVM issue. It looks to me like 1.4.2 supports SSL3/TLS1, so you should be ok with any version of CF 6.x+ running on that.

Re: Googlebot got me good last night...
Yeah, I hate to say it but Your problem is that you are relying on Javascript as your security. Anybody an tell their browser to ignore your security, thus they will not get redirected to the login page. You need to either use cflocation to redirect them to your login page or a cfinclude of the login page followed by cfabort. Ideally, this login check code is in your application.cfm or Application.cfc. These changes will prevent this kind on unwanted access as they will occur on the server side processing rather than on the client side processing. =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~| 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:319539 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

RE: Googlebot got me good last night...
Turn off Javascript in your browser and then try to use your admin pages. It looks like your security 'requires' javascript to be turned on. Spiders tend to ignore javascript entirely. I would change the javascript 'self.location' to a 'cflocation' tag. This will force the browser to the login page.

Re: Googlebot got me good last night...
I don't believe the googlebot can be stopped by Javascript, and nevertheless it's probably never a really good idea to prevent access to admin pages with JS only as disabling Javascript is relatively easy. Using cflocation would probably take care of it, though, and effectively redirects the user (or bot) to the appropriate page.

cfinclude template issues
First, I have no clue about CF. We had a developer make a site in CF and now he is gone. I'm simply trying to add a new page to the existing site and it does not work. Here is the response that I get: Could not find the included template /products/bf.cfm. Note: If you wish to use an absolute template path (for example, template=/mypath/index.cfm) with CFINCLUDE, you must create a mapping for the path using the ColdFusion Administrator. Or, you can use per-application settings to specify mappings specific to this application by specifying a mappings struct to THIS.mappings in Application.cfc. Using relative paths (for example, template=index.cfm or template=../index.cfm) does not require the creation of any special mappings. It is therefore recommended that you use relative paths with CFINCLUDE whenever possible. The error occurred in D:\inetpub\wwwroot\server.com\products\index.cfm: line 101 101 :td colspan=3 rowspan=6 valign=top bgcolor=#5E5E5Ecfinclude template=#GetPageContent.PageInclude#/td If I look at the template #GetPageContent.PageInclude# it goes to this: cfquery name=GetPageContent datasource=web SELECT * FROM dbo.ProductPages WHERE PageID = '#URL.p#' /cfquery which is at the top of the index.cfm file. All other pages that were made this way work, except any new ones I create. I have to be missing something that is not making this work..

Re: Googlebot got me good last night...
Just another note on this. I've heard of people setting up proxies that ignored all redirect headers sent back to them. This means that if you use cflocation to locate to your login page, you should also ensure that the requested page does not show up should the cflocation fail. ie. cflocation url=/login /cfabort / CFLOCATION aborts the processing of the current page. Any output generated before the CFLOCATION may be shown if the user agent doesn't follow the redirection.

Re: cfinclude template issues
You need to add the filename of the page you're adding to the PageInclude column of the database table (dbo.ProductPages), and a then pass the pageID code of the new item to index.cfm (index.cfm?p=[PageID]). On second glance, it looks like you may have already done this part--your message says it cannot find /products/bf.cfm. Maybe the file you created needs to be in a different location in the file system? You'll also probably want to wash the URL param p before passing it into your database, using cfqueryparam, otherwise you subject yourself to SQL injection attacks. cfquery name=GetPageContent datasource=web SELECT * FROM dbo.ProductPages WHERE PageID = cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer value=#url.p# /cfquery On Thu, Feb 19, 2009 at 3:22 PM, Scott Weber swe...@thanksal.com wrote: First, I have no clue about CF.

Re: cfinclude template issues
CF uses / to indicate a mapping (an alias to a specific location). by default, the / alone is a mapping to the web root. in the CF Admin, you can set up additional mappings, such that /products could point to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\foo\bar\products since you're using /products/bf.cfm, unless there is a mapping set up for /products, that would look in your web root for a folder called 'products' and a file inside called 'bf.cfm'. if you're using a mapping (either in the Admin or, if you're on CF 8 it could be in the Application.cfc), you'd need to see what the mapping for '/products' points to (and then look in that location for 'bf.cfm').

RE: cfinclude template issues
Hi Scott After your /cfquery, add this to see exactly what the query is returning: cfdump var=#GetPageContent# cfabort The first line will dump the query (or any variable, which is very handy), and cfabort will end the page (before the error hits). If the dump doesn't show a column called PageInclude, or if that value doesn't look like a decent template name, then this query (or something) is the problem. (Remove the debugging code when you're done.) If the query looks right then add a simple cfinclude template=... and hard-code the query's value as the template. Follow this by cfabort and your page should do the cfinclude and then stop; if you get an error then the template you are trying to include is either missing or not reachable from your page. (You can put this tag near the top of the page... All you want to verify is that cfinclude works or doesn't. Remove the cfinclude after the test.) Post your results.

ColdFuison Course display
I have a code that i wrote looking for the specific courses and check for the completion. Now the requirenment has changed. 4. Date Rule: This will have a number of possibilities. 0: Ignore start and end dates. Display this course for all EDITs 1: This course will be displayed to an edit if the EDIT date is after the Start date. 2: This course will be displayed to an edit if the EDIT date is before the End date. 3: This course will be displayed to an edit if the EDIT date is between the Start date and the End date. 5. Equivalent Course: Chosen from a dropdown list of all Sunrise courses. If the main course has been completed display that one. If the main course has not been completed but the Equivalent one has, then display the equivalent one. If neither have been done then display main course but without a completion date. The EDIT may put in a completion if course rules allow this. Note the date rules still apply. The Equivalent course is to be a list of courses. This will allow a course to be equivalent to 2 or 3 courses. If displaying the Equivalents display all the courses in the list. 6. Online: Yes or no. Display only this is automated by the system and cannot be set by the Administrator. If the course is an online course the EDIT will not be able to input a completion date. This completion date will then be automated. The Equivalent stored in the list.

Best practice - registration activation by email
Just wondering how others are dealing with public member signups that require an email activation? What I'm doing on a new site that I recently set up is sending out the activation as soon as someone registers. If a user tries to login with an account still in the unactivated state, they're shown an appropriate error message and given the option of having another activation email sent to them. I expire the unactivated accounts after 48 hours, deleting them completely from the books. This should allow someone to re-register using the same email address, in case their activation email was lost, overlooked, or caught by a spam filter. Other approaches? ~| 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:319561 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

RE: Googlebot got me good last night...Application.cfm question
I think it is probably a moot point, but it probably bears repeating. If you can run a link checker on your 'password protected' site, and that link checker can cause 'damage' to anything. Then you are not properly protecting your area. I have not yet come across a link checker that can submit a form, so the link checker should never have the authorization to run those pages in the protected area. An easy way to check this, without endangering your database, is to call a properly 'protected' page in your area directly from a browser that has it's javascript turned off and has had all of its cookies/session cookies, flushed. If the page runs as normal, then you have done something wrong. The good news is that we are here to help out.

I have an issue
Have a form and have the three raio buttons and I grouped it. Need to select
one option and depending on the option need to fill texboxes. I am able to
select the radio button and produce the error message.
I am trying to disable and enable textboxes and validate them depends on radio
button selection. I am able to disable and enable texboxes but unable to
validate boxes.
If I select Option1 It will disable text boxes
If I select option2 or option3 --- enable extboxes and validate boxes
textbox1 --- should validate the length=12, should be numeric, should not be
empty
textbox2 --- should validate the length=10, should be numeric, should not be
empty
Thanks,

RE: HTTP_USER_AGENT question
Yeah, as a general rule-- never base security off anything in the cgi scope. Anything that comes in the request header can be spoofed. ~Brad Original Message Subject: Re: HTTP_USER_AGENT question From: James Holmes james.hol...@gmail.com Date: Thu, February 19, 2009 11:47 pm To: cf-talk cf-talk@houseoffusion.com It's trivial to fake this header and many bad bots (i.e. the ones that ignore robots.txt) will pretend to be IE or another browser. ~| 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:319589 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
Re: HTTP_USER_AGENT question
I use this in my application.cfc right at top. It notes the more common bots
(google) and assigns them a timeout of 2 seconds. You can use the same logic
for whatever you want.
IF
(REFindNoCase('Slurp|Google|BecomeBot|msnbot|ZyBorg|RufusBot|EMonitor|java',
cgi.http_user_agent))
This.sessionTimeout=createtimespan(0,0,0,2);

In working out my Googlebot problem, I came across an idea of using
HTTP_USER_AGENT to identify a bot, and then exclude it from an area or
whatever (redirect it to www.disney.com or something... that's a joke)
... assuming it gets in despite the robots.txt file.
So, this looks like a good starting point to modify from:
http://www.bennadel.com/blog/1083-ColdFusion-Session-Management-And-Spiders-Bots.htm
I see how to deal with bots you can identify. Can anybody think of a way
or have an example of how to figure out that it's a unidentifiable bot
(rather than a real user with a browser) and redirect/whatever?
Just asking
