Sounds great! Dale. Just a bit earlier for me.

I've been working with Luis developing CodexWiki, and I have to say, it's a very nice framework.

It's about how so many people (not just Microsoft but they're the most prominent offender in my view) think that merely using the name of something is enough. How many times have we all seen someone announce proudly that 'version 3.2 of WIdgetSoft is now released!! and wondered, what the hell is WIdgetSoft? I have a machine that's groaning under the weight of around 100 processes. It's working ok, but if i installed everything that people wanted me to install, then I'd end up with a bazillion conflicts and a whole lot of precious RAM used up for things i don't need. As it is, i havent got a clue what some of those 100 processes are. I just know that if i close some of them, things break. So I leave them running, and trust my anti-virus to make sure they're all ok. So my policy is 'just because someone says i need to install this, is not good enough reason. I need to decide for myself whether i need to install it. I remember back to the days when i had Real Audio installed, and it kept taking charge of things and changing my settings, installing spyware and other things. it was a thoroughly unpleasant piece of software to have on my machine. And I had two calls this week from clients asking me what this Silverlight thing is, and should they install it. I was hoping to be able to call them back and say something like yes it's ok to install. have a look at http://url here and you can see for yourself what it does. But there's no such page. The one that I eventually found after 5 clicks to get there by the most direct route, says things like : Custom branded experiences using 2D vector graphics, animation, styling, and skinning.I think i know what that means but it's totally meaningless to my client who's a furniture manufacturer. And the other client who makes and imports high-performance car parts, doesnt understand the difference between Vista and XP. Is confused about the difference between RAM and hard drive storage.I wouldnt even try to explain it to him. It's a pity that Microsoft didnt think any of those uses might want to know what it is. Some more examples of this lack of explanation:When Windows Update says i need to update my machine, i just get a message saying you have some updates but no easy way to find out what those updates are, and decide whether I need them.or XPPro Service Pack 3 - says there are some feature enhancements included, but no way to find out what those enhahcements are. (I have discovered after installing SP3 that my Remote Desktop no longer works, so presumably the SP3 changed something there without my knowledge or approval. I now have to spend time tracking it down and changing whatever it is back again). A few years ago, I found myself on someone's mailing list and was bombarded with stuff about an international SOA conference that was coming up.

I have an app that gets included on three seperate pages withing the same domain (pages A, B, C all use app X). On each page where it gets used, I use a cookie to store user preferences. The preferences need to be unique to where the app gets used, so I dynamicly create the cookie name depending on which page it gets loaded from (page As cookie is called cookie A, page Bs cookie is called cookie B, etc) The following code seems to work for naming and setting the cookies... cfset cname=appname_ pagename cfcookie expires=never name=#cname# value=#fvalue# My trouble starts when I'm trying to read the value of the cookie on the next visit. cfset cookieVal = #COOKIE.cname# This isn't working since it's loking for a cookie with the liiteral name of cname instead of the value of cname.

[cfaussie] Re: variable name confusion
The variable you are using cfset cname=appname_ pagename when looking a the cookie dump: cfdump var=#COOKIE# is producing a cookie named appname_pagename If thats what you intended then you could read the cookie like this cfset cookieVal = COOKIE.appname_pagename or cfset cookieVal = COOKIE[appname_pagename] But I am going to assume you intended to use dynamic variables here. cfset cname=appname_ pagename cfcookie expires=never name=#cname# value=TEST you can get the cookie value like this if the pagename is dynamic. cfset cookieVal = COOKIE[appname_#pagename#] or like this if both are dynamic eg: cfset cname = appname _ pagename cfcookie expires=never name=#cname# value=TEST cfset cookieVal = COOKIE[#appname#_#pagename#] I hope that helps.

[cfaussie] Re: variable name confusion
Well you need to know what cname literal was and access it that way. So if cname = dale COOKIE.dale Or COOKIE['dale'] Or Cookie[cname] If you don't know or have the literal value of cname you have no hope of finding it surely.

[cfaussie] Re: frustrated CF newbie
For what it's worth, I seem to have resolved this issue by optimising some of the sql queries. I still can't claim to understand exactly what the problem was, but by using *a lot* of cfdump statments, I found that a particular query occasionaly ran *way* slow (we are using MySQL 4.1). Adding an index, and optimising some queries to use joins instead of sub-queries seems to have made the problem go away. At least I can say it doesn't seem to have been my coldfusion code that was at fault. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

@Kevin: I will agree even after the length of time I have been developing, changes to the syntax make me a n00b at times. @nedlud: Unless you read the Coldfusions Manuals (if either you have purchased / or read online), these sort of enhancements become unknown unless someone else points it out to you. I know that I have purchased the manuals, just because of all the new Ajax UI and enhancements. But there is so much more to Coldfusion 8 that even I will lay claim to not knowing as yet.

What version of Coldfusion are you using? If you are using pre Coldfusion 8, then might I suggest these 2 products Fusion-Reactor Fusion-Debug. If you are using Coldfusion 8, then might I suggest using the Monitor and Line Debugger. These 2 options can be invaluable towards debugging and optimising your code.
