[cfaussie] Re: javascript question :: select default value
If you didn't want to use an onload method of persisting this
information, you could merely store the last selectedIndex against the
DOM element itself.. It just depends on how the initial default value
is being set (via DOM or part of the static HTML). That way, you can
just set the selectedIndex to the lastSelectedIndex stored on the
DOM element if the user selects 'cancel'.

I have gone with this for now
onchange=if (this.options[this.selectedIndex].value == 0 ) if (

where RS_ID is what is being used to select the correct option in the first
place.
But it means if the select another option, then the first option (value ==
0), and cancel it will go to the original value (as it load time) and not
the previous value they selected. But I think I can live with that.

[cfaussie] Re: Simplified Chinese encoding
Ryan,I've only ever used UTF-8 in the past, as I found working with any other encoding (either getting data into or out of the database) to be pretty unreliable. SQL Server for instance isn't too good at storing double-byte characters, but works with Unicode fine. The other issue is forcing ColdFusion not to encode everything as Unicode by default. You need to do this BEFORE the browser sees it (so in this case, the META tag won't help you). Haikal's suggestion will probably do the trick (not that I have tried it before).

Why not just use MXNA's idea -- have two ColdFusion fees. There is a regular, static ColdFusion feed, and theres a we think these are ColdFusion posts ColdFusion feed (Robin's idea). That way you can allow people to choose.

(I for one find the leave it be approach to be suffice for my RSS digestion) - Yet - others want a more focused approach, like Dale - If i ask for Coldfusion, serve it too me. Now Robin has indicated that there is a multitude of ways in which we could technically make all this happen, latest being the Bayesian algorithms - which does sound quite interesting. So here's the thing... Geoff makes a change as per Robins posts, what happens? - I dare say, he could quite easily alienate a large portion of the F-Goog population in one hit. He could ignore it? but now that Dale's come out and stated that he finds it off-topic too much ( my blog is guilty at times ) others may flock to his banner and agree - more negatives. So Geoff will now need to choose the lesser of both evils? or he could simply steal a page or two out of Digg.com. Why not simply allow folks to click on a feature under each thread in the free-for-all category that allows the community, the very people who focus their attention on F-Goog to promote certain feeds into certain categories of global choice. This will allow the wider population of F-Goog to determine what is context and what is noise. Sometimes, the power of the end-user is enough.

To this end I wrote a CF script this evening that visited the 468 feeds aggregated by the Goog and built a distinct list of dc:subject tag values on the feed items (see my blog comment for the list). I figure that if we can map the various subjects used on these blogs for CF, Flash, Flex etc (there typically seem to be about 4-8 variations for each product) to products we should be able to visit the original articles, and assign each to the correct sample (CF, Flash, Trash etc) based on the subjects allocated by the author at post time. With this data (basically a word frequency table) we should be able to look at any article or web page and with some modest number crunching get a pretty good indication of how relevant it would be to a particular product.

Here's the current top 9 Coldfusion Blend Entries First thing to say is generally I agree. I'm not a great fan of off topic posts myself but they clearly don't annoy me as much as they annoy some.

They feel it humanises the community and so on. 2) its not computationally trivial to work out what is a good and not so good post 3) not everyone has a category that is relevant -- if i only take CF posts from a blogger do I miss the posts they might have on JS, Flash, Flex, SQL etc? Many bloggers have many technical interests. CF itself has many satellite subjects that should be of interest to CF developers. I have plans for the next generation Goog to provide some degree of social interaction to widen the scope for users to be editors and hone the relevance of posts. I also have a variety of ideas on how to do this computationally. There are some 500 hand picked blogs on Fullasagoog. And a waiting list of about half that. I review each blog before adding it.

Andrew, Can you send some code snippets up to the list? I am not sure why you are having troubles here? Using CFJSON you should be able to serialise the cf array into JSON array notation, and then simply run eval(jsonstring) to get the array back as a js object.

[cfaussie] Re: Ajax and CF
Just a little more to add to the pot.. If you return a string, inside
an XML packet, or otherwise, that looks like this:
[{foo:woo},{foo:bah}]
and then run eval() on it in JavaScript, you will get an array
(length=2), where each element is a struct (object) with a key of
foo.
This may also help, where I am literally using CFJSON.

[cfaussie] Re: [OT] javascript checked attribute
You can't add the checked attribute after the input has been created,
it must be part of the createElement method.
Try this:
var checked = ;
if ( parentListItem.className == inherit ) {
checked = checked;
}
var newCheckbox = document.createElement( input type=checkbox
name=itemToDeploy + checked + );
newCheckbox.value = fileArray[ i ][ 1 ];

alert( newCheckbox.checked );
Everything shows up as expected, except that the check box is not checked,

Does anyone have any idea what could cause this?

[cfaussie] Re: calling COM on a remote server.
Further to this, the COM object itself must be registered to accept
remote calls, via DCOM I think.

[ABN AMRO Morgans run 6 load balanced machines (but through a hardware load

With regard to the original question of running COM (in any shape or form)
on CF7 (or even CF6 for that matter).. we have found that since the move
to Java (in the first instance in CF6) that not all COM continues to work -
basically (I have been told) because of the CORBA-COM bridging.
So - I guess this might have something to do with why it works even less
reliably in CF7.
What is the purpose of the COM object that makes it so server intensive?
Have you considered an alternative approach to achieve the same result?
Possibly using some of the new Asynchronous mechanisms in CF7?

[cfaussie] Re: Where have all the CF developers gone?
Agreed. One of the problems with CFSCRIPT is that it is not ECMAScript compliant. When switching between JavaScript and CFSCRIPT, it can often get confusing - especially when you are dealing with conditions. I imagine this will be the same case with developers who shift between AS3 and CFSCRIPT. One of the Adobe engineers at WebDU hinted that operators were being looked at in the new version of ColdFusion, so perhaps we are edging closer.

We aren't asking for something new to be added - we are just asking for something that already (almost) exists to be made standard.

Actually, the context of 'this' when passed to the doMakeAction method will be the DOM element. Either way, the code given will work.On 2/21/06, Gary Menzel
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
One tiny change still required...
The this passed over in the last line of the function should be myListItem. Passing over this will pass the TabbedInterface object (but it is the LI that is required).
e.g.
myListItem. () { thisInstance.doMakeActive(myListItem ); }
Explaining. you need the thisInstance as a var so that it will be available when the inline function (above) is called. You need the myListItem as a var for the same reason. The anonymous function created by the function() call requires those to variables to be in scope (varing them will do this) when the function is actually called. Because the function is declared inline inside another function/method then anything that is declared VAR there will be visible when the function is actually triggered by the onclick call.

Your problem is that you need to reference the function in the onclick as part of the INSTANCE of the object. Otherwise, the onclick event is firing a call to a global method.
E.g.TabbedInterface.prototype.doMakeActive = function(obj){}TabbedInterface.prototype.doAddTab = function(){var thisInstance = this; var myListItem = document.createElement
( li );var myLink = document.createElement( a );var myIFrame = document.createElement( iframe );
myLink. false;; myLink.innerHTML = linkText;myLink.href = ""
myListItem. () { thisInstance.doMakeActive( this ); }}Darryl
