: Yes.  Look at how its done by Struts and the Apache Commons Validator  
: platform.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, in Struts you have to include the validation 
routine in the action page, which is not really what I was after.

re[2]: ValidateAt parameter is effectively only client side (was: "re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Password CFinput regular expression - throws alert/error after correction also")

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Sorry for the confusion. My point is that even though the server does perform 
validation, it does so only at the command of the client (hidden field). 
Effectively, it is therefore still client side validation. I believe it gives a 
false sense of security (to myself included) since it's so easily bypassed by 
anyone with some basic tools, so I'm glad Dean pointed it out. Because he wrote 
that he wasn't 100% sure, I decided to test it and share my code. I didn't mean 
to convey any sort of concern about the absence/presence of hidden form fields.

Do you think in theory CF could provide true server side validation without 
relying on hidden form fields? My guess would be "yes in a fairly reliable 
fashion", but I'm curious if anyone has an opinion on that...

Hope that makes sense.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] excel or csv to database table

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: My other thought would be
 ask if you think it would be ok to just use
 the:  files themselves as the database
 rather than import and use MS SQL. This way:
  the files could just be uploaded to
 the server and overwritten when they need:
  to be updated. There are basically
 5 files with some location data in it that:
  are used for a specialized dealer locator
 app. My thought was maybe I could:  just
 read the files into a select query and then
 loop the query to filter the:  records
 to be displayed. There will never be more
 than several hundred:  records in
 the excel files. However the site that will
 use it may have a fair:  amount
 of traffic so I didnt know if reading the
 files might become a:  problem.
 Perhaps I could read them into a cached query
 to solve that problem?:  
I have a similar situation where my
 excel file updates a few times per week and
 I need to read it just once and the format
 does not change: you can define an ODBC DSN
 to the file and read that from CF like any
 other true database. After the definition
 is done and is working (inspect the schema.ini
 file, it will make sense once you look at
 it), you could even just replace the excel
 file with a new version without doing anything
 else. 
Only drawback I can think of is that
 it's slightly more difficult to combine your
 excel data with any data housed on your db
 server if you don't truly insert it in a
 table.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] cfmail issue

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

At the risk of stating
 the obvious, here is what I would do:
1. Dump the values for
 your vars and hardcode them in a CFMAIL statement
 with a very basic subject and body2.
 If that looks good but still fails to send,
 another troubleshooting step is to use telnet
 from your CF server and send an email. http://www.wikihow.com/Send-Email-Using-Telnet 
 This should reveal quick enough whether the
 mail server is the piece that is tripping
 you up...

re: [ACFUG Discuss] CF 7 Pagination - Query rerun making pagination useless

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Re: Programming OMR (Optical mark recognition) codes in ColdFusion 7

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Are you asking about converting html to pdf or creating the actual OMR symbols? 
The former could be solved by using cfdocument. The latter, I'm afraid, you're 
on your own, depending on the OMR symbol that is required. A quick google 
turned up no standards but barcodes, which doesn't seem you're interested in.

If you can somehow produce the OMR graphic, you can use it within HTML and if 
it shows ok in the browser, the cfdocument tag should include it unchanged in 
the pdf. 

Depending on the complexity of the OMR symbol, JAI or a product like Alagad's 
Image component might work:
http://www.alagad.com/go/products-and-projects/image-component/create-and-draw-into-images

Obviously, if you only have a limited number of OMR symbols to deal with, just 
have a graphics person create them as a gif or whatever and insert them in your 
page.

Is that what you mean?

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Merchant Accounts

I just did something similar for a very very basic ordering system. I used a 
3rd party hosted shopping cart (Mal's e-commerce) which natively integrated 
with Authorize.net's gateway. No CC details are stored on the customer's server 
whatsoever. Setup was extremely easy, but the cart will never beat rolling your 
own. Pricing less than $100/yr for the cart. Not sure about the gateway. 
Contact me offlist if you need more info.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Non-CF Question

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: Yep. But now we don't know why. Oh, well...

Tom is talking about transferring a file over a network, you were talking about 
transferring it to an attached storage device. In Tom's case, the operating 
system's file system drivers take care of reading the file in the computer's 
memory, Windows reading it's NTFS, Mac reading it's HPFS+ (?). After that, the 
network stack takes care of transporting the file and this is where the two 
computers communicate (in TCP/IP probably). In your scenario you were trying to 
make the Mac write to an NTFS volume, which it can't do.
Hope that makes sense!

Nope. They're NTFS. Aside from the backup network drive, I have a Windows

Most of my development files are on that server, so I'm working with them 
in Eclipse constantly.

Glad you got your problem solved, though.

I'd try formatting the external disk using FAT32... most operating systems can

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] CFMail Delivery Confirmation

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: Oh! Atleast according to the documention
 in Adobe website, if you use the:  spoolEnable
 = false in CFMAIL or use the CF administrators
 Mail settings to:  disable spooling
 altogether, the page that sends out the email,
 should:  atleast try to send out
 the email immediately and, give you out an:
  application exception if there was
 a delivery or connection issues.
The only connection issue you're going
 to troubleshoot this way is between the CF
 server and your own SMTP server, as defined
 in the CF Administrator. The SMTP server
 receives the message from CF, spools it,
 and then tries to deliver it to the recipient's
 mailserver. This process may or may not fail.
 
The OP wrote: " Is there anyway to tell
 if the email was successfully delivered to
 the recipient?"
 
Yes, there is, but it's not easy doing
 it from ColdFusion. As outlined above, the
 CF server itself never connects to the recipients
 mailserver, so it cannot by itself determine
 whether the message was delivered or not.
 Only the sending SMTP server knows whether
 a message was successfully delivered or not.
 
Successful message delivery may not
 even be what you need: it doesn't tell you
 with absolute certainty that the mailbox
 (email address) is valid and it of course
 is no guarantee at all that the recipient
 actually got and read the message.
 
Hope that makes sense!
Mischa.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] cfchart

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

If you're on IIS, make sure to UNcheck
 "Verify that file exists": 
 
Go to IIS and open your site properties.
 Click on the "home directory" tab and then
 click on the configuration button.
 If you have a typical setup you should see
 the Jrun wildcard entry in the bottom
 list box. Select this entry and click on
 "edit". There is a checkbox that says "verify

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Switch to CF8

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I'd be curious how they explain the upload succeeding under FF.

Anyway, I remember having some issues with testing whether users are logged on, 
something in the syntax or behavior of that function changed, but I don't 
remember the specifics.

Good luck!

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] CF8 & PDFs

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

It is not necessary to use a true PDF
 form (with identified fields and values)
 to be able to extract text from it. I just
 printed a PO from our system using an open
 source PDF printer and then converted it
 back into Excel. There are some applications
 that use a bitmap format like tiff or jpg
 as an intermediary to produce a PDF. Documents
 from these systems could obviously not easily
 be converted back into text.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] passing a structure as wddx in url parameter. Any alternate method to avoid wddx?

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: I didnt know, you cannot send structure
 var in form post. So I guess I have to:
  use wddx.  
You can use wddx and plop it all in
 one field as a piece of text, or you can
 take apart your structure and send all your
 fields individually:
 




 
This will result in a neat structure
 (form) on the receiving end. Just think of
 it as your CF server acting as a browser:
 a struct (or object or query etc.) cannot
 exist in a browser, it only exists on the
 server and as such, CF cannot post that variable
 to another page.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] passing a structure as wddx in url parameter. Any alternate method to avoid wddx?

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I would only pass company_id
 and employee_no in the url and then run the
 query again to find the other info on your
 target system. I would agree that passing
 that amount of info through the url will
 not make you happy in the long run. If you
 can't run the query on the remote system,
 I would consider using a form post.

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss]
 passing a structure as wddx in url parameter.
 Any alternate method to avoid wddx?
  
Hi there,
 
I am using wddx to pass a structure
 as a url parameter. All I am doing is this
 shown below, based on condition that query
 returns only 1 recordset
 
 
           
 

 
Store this struct with wddx
action=""input="#st_Employee#"output="thisUser">
 
The reason I had to do this is because
 from /A/B/test.cfm, I have to relocate to
 /subApp/home.cfm and in /subApp/Application.cfm
 which gets called, i set client vars using
 the wddx url var like this
 
  action=""  input="#thisUser#"  output="st_Employee">
 
and finally use it to set client vars.
 
Is there a better/alternate way to achieve
 this? I heard wddx as url parameter could
 be messy in the long run. 
 
Please advise.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] sorting question

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

As a variation on Charlie's suggestion, I'd like to propose assigning points to 
individual students for having a certain value for a characteristic:

points = total population / group size

Assume 400 students: 200 Europeans, 100 Asians, 50 Africans, 50 Oceanians.

Europeans: 400/200: 2 points each.
Asians: 400/100: 4 points
etc.

Repeat this for every characteristic. In the end, every student will have 
accumulated points for uniqueness. You want to assign the high point students 
to their own group first because they are very valueable from a uniqueness 
standpoint.

So distribute the top 25 unique students over 25 groups first, then randomly 
distribute the next 25 students over the groups etc.

I realize that you are giving more total points to characteristics with more 
possible values but I think that still achieves the goal of making each group 
as diverse as possible. The benefit is that the above method is fairly easy to 
program and with two tables and a bit of sql and some CF loops the overall goal 
can be achieved.

I'm curious about how you end up doing it!
Good luck!
Mischa.

have to have access="remote".

But, this means anyone can access the methods. What I built is a

re: [ACFUG Discuss] CF 8 RDS help needed

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: Help!  I'm transferring this
 question thread from the Flex discussion
 group:  over here Trying to get
 CF8 RDS to let me in. 
CF8 setup on Windows is not smooth,
 RDS does not seem to be installed properly
 at all. Have you checked like Cameron suggested
 that ide.cfm exists? It didn't for me, and
 manually creating it solved the problem.

re[4]: [ACFUG Discuss] showing image from network share..how to?

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

:  browse. The browser window
 opened and i got page cannot be displayed
 screen :   : There is a
 problem with the page you are looking for,
 and it cannot be:  displayed.  :
  : Please try the following: * Contact
 the Web site administrator to inform them:

 :   
Either:
- allow Everyone to browse that share
- Run IIS under a domain account
 
or more exotic solutions like replicating
 your files to the webserver, setting up a
 webserver on the box that hosts the image
 files, using CFFILE to have the CF server
 read it etc.
 
BTW, I duplicated your starting situation
 (use IMG tag to pull in image file from
 share) and interestingly enough, that does
 not work with Firefox (2.0.0.14), but it
 does work with IE 6 (SP2). FF simply does
 not show the image, but it is available allright
 through Tools -> Page Info -> Media...

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] showing image from network share..how to?

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

If you don't make any changes, IIS will
 attempt to retrieve images from the share
 using it's default credentials ("Local System")
 and unless Everyone has read access (or better),
 that won't work. What has worked for me as
 far as troubleshooting in the past, is to
 try to browse that image straight from within
 IIS manager on that webserver. If there is
 a permission problem, it will show up right
 there and you have take CF and the browser
 out of the loop.

: Clearly, if I must specify the printer name, I'd have to have a way to get

I think for this scenario, cfprint is not the way to go. If you want the 
hardcopy to be produced at the user's default and local printer, let the user 
print it. For cfprint to work here, you'd have to communicate the user's 
default printer to the server, verify that the server can print there, make 
sure the server has drivers for it (!) and then create the print job. Unless 
you have a tightly controlled environment, too many things can go wrong.

re[6]: [ACFUG Discuss] Using components on different websites

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Thanks Justin, this worked! (as long as I gave the junction a different name 
than the original!)

so now I have:
\Site1\Components

\Site2\MyComponents   (which is a junction to \Site1\Components).

The application.cfc from site2 is now honored, whether you call the component 
via cfobject or an AJAX bind. Phew!

For more information on the utility to do this: 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/205524
Mischa.

: You could use an NTFS hardlink (junction) for this. I don't know the exact
: details, but it'd work.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] AJAX security (was: Using components on different websites)

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I guess the methods with access="remote"
 which are session unaware then call the facade
 CFC which has an access="public" to obtain
 permission to return the data? The session
 unaware method would still have to be supplied
 with some sort of id that makes the requesting
 user identifieable (client.secretid?). That
 sounds like quite a bit of work just to avoid
 reading a session var...?
Per http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/11/15/Flex-And-ColdFusion-Session-Variables
 
"If you create a public facing CFC
 that exposes methods that allow session data
 to be directly manipulated, well, you've
 now allowed public access to session data.
 Of course, callers will only have access
 to their own session data, but still, proceed
 with caution, and make sure you fully understand
 what you are doing."
 
In my example, I'm not even modifying
 my session vars in my cfc, but even if I
 was, what is the worst that could happen?
 (I know that's a loaded question ;-)
/m
 
 
: Typically for this sort of scenario
 I use a Session Facade.  This is simply
 a:  CFC that explicitly accesses
 the Session Scope, but does nothing else.

re[4]: [ACFUG Discuss] Using components on different websites

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Well, the fix didn't do it. I'm beginning to think bug.

Problem #1

Create this cfc and point a virtual directory to it. The website root for the 
site containing the virtual directory has a different application.cfm than the 
website that has this test component in it's physical structure.

 
   
 


If this component is called directly:
http://site2/Components/test.cfc?method=testfunction
it returns the applicationname for site1, however, when used like so:

 #createobject("Component", "site2.Components.Test").TestFunction()#

it returns site2.  In my opionion the bug is not so much an unexpected outcome, 
but more an inconsistent one.



Problem #2

A CFGrid tag on site2 with this bind attribute:
bind="cfc:site2.Components.Test.TestFunction({cfgridpage}...
generates this js in the rendered page:

ColdFusion.Bind.cfcBindHandler(... 
:_cf_grid_errorhandler,'cfc':'/site1/Components/test.cfc','cfcFunction':'TestFunction'
 ...

On both occasions it appears the cf server traverses the physical path and uses 
that to resolve application.cfm which is different behavior than any other 
processed file.


At this moment I see no workaround but forking my code :-(

Thanks Cody! I tried your suggestion, but the component is then executed 
without any application.cfc "context", so my session vars are still not 
available :-(


: I am not sure what the best practice is, but the following setup may solve
:  your issues:

: Components\MyComponent.cfm

: Site1\application.cfm  (-> this.name = "site1";)
: Site1\Components ... this is an IIS virtual directory that points to  >
:  Components
: Site1\UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite1.cfm
:  
: Site2\application.cfm   (-> this.name = "site2";)
: Site2\Components   ... this is an IIS virtual directory that points to  >
:  Components
: Site2\UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite2.cfm

: This way if there is no application.cfm in the Components directory then I
:  would think it would jump to Site1 or Site2 respectively.

Components\MyComponent.cfm

Site1\application.cfm  (-> this.name = "site1";)
Site1\Components ... this is an IIS virtual directory that points to  > 
Components
Site1\UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite1.cfm

Site2\application.cfm   (-> this.name = "site2";)
Site2\Components   ... this is an IIS virtual directory that points to  > 
Components
Site2\UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite2.cfm

This way if there is no application.cfm in the Components directory then I 
would think it would jump to Site1 or Site2 respectively.

Well, supposedly it was a known issue:
"70775  ColdFusion Ajax components cannot access CFCs in a virtual directory." 
per 
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403070&sliceId=1. 
Found while researching the url option.

If the hf does not work, I'll let you guys know. Thanks for your input!
Mischa.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Using components on different websites

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Thanks Cameron! Unfortunately, you cannot bind to a component using a mapping 
combined with the cfc format:

"Using bind expressions
To specify a bind expression, use one of the following formats:
* cfc:componentPath.functionName(parameters)
  Note: The component path cannot use a mapping. The componentPath value 
must be a dot-delimited path from the web root or the directory that contains 
the current page.
"
per the documentation :-(

However, now that I'm reading up on that... I might be able to bind to a url.

: Since you are on CF8, you might get an advantage from dynamically
: setting the mappings.  I usually drop common components into a
: location below the wwwroot and refer to them using a CF mapping.  The
: technique below also allows you to move code server to server without
: managing any mappings in the CF Admin or worrying that the directory
: structures are the same.

: One potential directory structure might look like this:

: mytestappl/site1/Application.cfc
: mytestappl/site1/UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite1.cfm
: mytestappl/site2/Application.cfc
: mytestappl/site2/UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite2.cfm
: mytestappl/components/mycomponent.cfc

: Ultimately, you can call your component using a CF mapping to
: mytestappl.components.mycomponent.

: You can then dynamically create a mapping in the Applicaiton.cfc like
: below...  Note that getRootDirectory() will find the main application
: root dir.

: 

: 
: // variables
: this.dsn= 'mytesterappl';

: // application settings
: this.name = 'mytesterappl';
: this.applicationtimeout= createTimeSpan(0,0,0,1);
: this.sessionManagement= true;
: this.sessionTimeout= createTimeSpan(0,0,1,0);

: // mappings
: this.mappings["/mytesterappl"]= getRootDirectory() & '\';
: 

: 
: 
: 
: var dir= getDirectoryFromPath(expandPath('.'));
: var pos= findNoCase('mytesterappl',dir);
: dir= mid(dir,1,pos+11);
: return dir;
: 
:

[ACFUG Discuss] Using components on different websites

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

All,
I'm running into an issue with CF8 and how components are bound to form 
controls. Proper execution of one of my components depends on a value in the 
session scope.

Site1\application.cfm  (-> this.name = "site1";)
Site1\Components\MyComponent.cfm
Site1\UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite1.cfm

Site2\application.cfm   (-> this.name = "site2";)
Site2\Components   ... this is an IIS virtual directory that points to  
Site1\Components
Site2\UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite2.cfm

The purpose of the above setup is to share a set of common cfc's between the 
two sites. If an object is instantiated through CreateObject via the 
UseComponentToShowSiteNameOnSite2.cfm template, the virtual directory is 
honored and the application.cfm from site2 is used. 

However, if I use CFGRID with a 
bind="cfc:Site2.Components.MyComponent.TestFunction...   I can see that the 
application.cfm from Site1 is used.

This breaks my application because the required session variables are not 
available for the user in Site1.

Is there a better way to share common cfc's and have different 
application.cfc's apply depending on how they are called?

(The above is a simplification, let me know if you need code).
Thanks!
Mischa.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] CF7 and CF8 on the same box

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

FWIW, I've had severe trouble getting
 CF8 installed over an existing and working
 CF7 install. The only way I could kind of
 get things working is to install it and specify
 to use the built in webserver, and then reconfigure
 to use an external webserver. RDS would never
 work, I tried 6 times on three different
 machines, in the end manually creating missing
 files did the trick. What a pain.

 Andy, Changing the CFIDE location is dicey.
 It can be done, but its like:  surgery
 in a lot of ways :   :
 First, the location of the CFIDE is specified
 in the /lib/neo-runtime.xml file:  (as
 a mapping entry for /CFIDE). I think that
 if you change the location,:  youll
 need to change the value there. If I recall
 correctly, if you dont get:  that
 value right in the XML file (if you modify
 it), the Admin may not start,:  and
 various CFCs within that directory may not
 run.  Beware. The location:  entered
 there is also displayed (but not editable)
 in the CF Admin, under:  Server
 Settings>Mappings. :   :
 Also, if you actually rename the directory,
 be aware that youll also need to:  change
 the entry in the CF Admin (Server Settings>Settings>
 Default ScriptSrc:  Directory).
 It will also break any pre-built links/shortcuts
 that were:  implementedwhen the
 CF server was installed (but theyre editable).
 :   : Finally, just be
 aware that there are some built-in things
 that also rely on:  /CFIDE as the
 directory, such as the xml entries in web.xml,
 which describe:  how other tools
 (like the RDS features in CF Studio/HS+,
 DW, and the Eclipse:  extensions
 for CF8) all come back to the server. :
   : Like I said, changing the
 CFIDE location is dicey. Someone may well
 have put:  out a useful doc explaining
 what it takes, but Im not aware of it. :

Interesting news. Sounds
 like a double edged sword to me: it takes
 care of the "but CF is expensive" argument
 but it may also cannibalize sales from Adobe.
 Good for developers I guess...

re[4]: [ACFUG Discuss] MagickTag from Alagad

Interesting! From what
 I can read, it seems indeed that ImageMagick
 (and Alagad Image Component) can take a bunch
 of plotpoints and project it on an image.
 A total hack would be to run the applet on
 the server, produce a pdf and use cfprint
 to convert the pdf to a jpg.
Sounds like a fun
 project though...

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Ajax.submitForm Conundrum

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Glad that worked! I'm not sure about the exact answer to your questions but I 
can only theorize that:

1. You're not supposed to call the defined callback function yourself... the 
YUI/ExtJS code will do that for you. I'm guessing that is because you will not 
be exactly sure when the server is done processing, so you won't know when it 
is safe to call the function.
2. AjaxOnLoad is really meant to kick off a javascript function. Which is 
client side. Which an action page doesn't really have anything to do with. 

I think by putting ajax like functionality on your action page, you're making 
it too hard for yourself ;-)
/m


: Many thanks. I tried your suggestion (i.e., I passed the string: action + '~'
:  + 145' as a single parm to the callback function and broke it apart inside
:  that function), and it worked beautifully! That is, both the database update
:  and the duties specified in the callback function were executed correctly.

: However, before trying that I tried something else (since I was a little leery
:  of what asynchronous might mean in this case), and I'm curious to know why
:  that method did not succeed. Namely, I took the callback parm out of the
:  submitForm statement, and in its stead, I added the following line to the
:  bottom of the target form, saveGenInfo.cfm: , settling for a single parm for
:  now (value = either 'insert' or 'delete'), just to see if an alert statement
:  inside GenInfoCallback (misnamed now of course) would show that it got
:  called, and received the parm. But no luck. The update to SQL Server
:  succeeded but GenInfoCallback was never called.

: Why not? And in general, when would it be appropriate to use the callback
:  method vs. the ajaxOnLoad method?

: Thanks in advance,
: Peyton

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Ajax.submitForm Conundrum

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

AFAIK the action page you submit to in this case must return only a string and 
the callback function can only handle that one string. You can delimit the 
string and parse it though.

>From the docs:
callbackhandler   
The JavaScript function to handle a normal response. The function must take a 
single argument, that contains the response body. This method is used only if 
the form submission is asynchronous.


Hope that helps!

SUBJECT:   [ACFUG Discuss] Ajax.submitForm Conundrum

Hello all. Does anyone have a suggestion to make regarding the following 
quandary I find myself in?

I'm trying to submit a form from inside a javascript function thus:

function SubmitFmGenInfo145(action){
//form validation code (omitted here), then:
ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm('fmGenInfo', 'saveGenInfo.cfm?mode=' +

}

When I do so, the callback function, shown below, executes correctly. It shows 
by the alert statements that it received the parameters, and by the state of 
the screen that it executed the populateGenInfo.cfm call (I haven't tested it 
for inserting yet). However, the form does not get submitted, and Firebug 
complains with the following error message: 'uncaught exception: 
ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm: Form not found, form id: fmGenInfo'. 

function GenInfoCallback(mode,typegroup){
alert(mode); alert(typegroup);
ColdFusion.navigate('populateGenInfo.cfm','getGenInfo');

[ACFUG Discuss] CFGRID in CF8

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I'm getting my feet wet with the new CF8
 features and I would like to combine some
 techniques that I have seen mentioned separately,
 but not together.
I want to present a list of historic orders
 to my customers; Order number, date, status,
 etc. A cfgrid is ideal because with a couple
 of lines of code they have a sortable, pageable
 table. One sales order has zero, one or more
 invoices. Either a link from the invoice
 record to a cfwindow that presents the invoice
 will work, or (even better) an inline selectbox.
According to http://blog.cutterscrossing.com/index.cfm/2007/11/30/CF8-Ajax-Grid-Renderers-and-Events the
 way to do this, is to traverse the table
 after it is rendered and populate the cells
 with this link or code. My problem is that
 I can't figure out how to execute the JS
 function for every new page of table data.
Any insight or ideas to do this better
 are welcome!
Thx,
Mischa.

re[6]: [ACFUG Discuss] CF and Vista

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

If your lease with Dell is anything
 like my lease with CDW, they don't really
 care what you lease; they just see a purchase
 amount and calculate your payment, that's
 it. I was even able to roll a one year software
 maintenance renewal fee into a three year
 lease :-)
Good luck and happy new year!
Mischa.
 
: I'm pretty sure the version I have
 is the full retail  version because
 I:  leased the software from Dell.
 However, I'm not sure if Dell  actually:
  cancels licenses after a lease ends
 or how that works. I'm sure I'll  find:
  out soon so I'll share ... :   :

"   PO# 72049"
"   6311 COURT ST."
"PO's 72993, 73252,73211"

What I'd like to find in a string:
- does the string contain a number larger than 72000 and smaller or equal to
99?
   - if yes, does the string contain the letters "po"
   - if yes, return the string from "po" until the end
   - if no, return the string

Background: sometimes our customers put our Purchase Order number(s) (which
range between 72000 and 99) in the address fields of a UPS label and
it's hard to find when the bill comes, so any parsing I can do here, will
help our AP folks a lot.

Thanks!

[ACFUG Discuss] Finding numbers in strings

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I thought I once saw a function in CF that would find a numeric part anywhere 
in a string, but I can't find it anymore (or was I dreaming?)

Anyway, here are some sample strings I need to parse:

"ATTN: JOE SMITH PO# 72274"
"3150 holcomb bridge road"
"   PO# 72049"
"   6311 COURT ST."
"PO's 72993, 73252,73211"

What I'd like to find in a string:
- does the string contain a number larger than 72000 and smaller or equal to 
99?
- if yes, does the string contain the letters "po"
- if yes, return the string from "po" until the end
- if no, return the string

Background: sometimes our customers put our Purchase Order number(s) (which 
range between 72000 and 99) in the address fields of a UPS label and it's

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] CFChart doesn't display Flash movie or PNG

I assume you unchecked
 "Verify that file exists" in IIS for that
 site?

 Edit).

 is that Staging has an SSL.  I have
 chosen to cache:  the charts in

re[4]: [ACFUG Discuss] strange issue with cfcontent

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: My main concern with a new approach like this is I would assume the use of
: cffile to make the copy. If CF can't serve a 5 to 10mb file correctly then
: it might have a hard time making a copy of the file. I would assume that
: making a copy of the file would use less resources though than serving it
: for download? Any thought on that before I start off on a new path would be
: cool.

I would think it would be extremely unlikely for an operation like that to fail 
under load... it would simply be delayed. (If this would fail, it would mean 
your server becomes utterly unreliable under load, for all kinds of operations, 
not just copy a file). Also, Java seems to perform a CRC check during copy, 
which will throw a trappable error if it failed.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] strange issue with cfcontent

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I know I'm a bit late to this, but I was thinking this direction as well: copy 
the file to a downloadable version with a guid in the name in an accessible 
directory, so others can't guess it and then use OnSessionEnd to clean it up. 
Added benefit is that CF is out of the picture and the webserver will take care 
of transferring the file...
/m

: Also could it be that cfcontent is not such a good approach for doing what I
: described. Basically keeping the files out of the webroot for security. Is
: there another better approach. Maybe create a process that temporarily
: creates a folder and copy of the file for a normal direct link to download
: and then wipe it off after a time. That was just a quick thought.

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] speeding up cfexecute

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Can you somehow cache the output? Is there an anti-virus product installed that 
scans the executable upon loading? 

If this is a windows box, a rude estimate of "OS level" execution time, write a 
batch file something like:

ver|time
yourprogram
ver|time

the time command will give you the current time up to 1/100th of a second.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Installing CF MX 6.1 on W2K3

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I've had a similar
 issue with UPS software that claimed it wouldn't
 run on '03 where in fact it ran fine. Here
 is one suggestion: if possible, extract the
 updater to a folder (or copy the contents
 of the CD to a folder) and right click on
 the installer, then Properties. Look for
 the Compatibility tab and choose a supported
 operating system. When running the installer,
 it will "think" it's running on the OS you
 picked.
 
Of course it may
 be that the CFMX 6(.1) installer is a bit
 overzealous and won't accept a platform it
 doesn't recognize, OR it may be right
 and Win 2003 is truly not supported. Anyway,
 I would not recommend this for production
 systems.
Mischa.

re[4]: [ACFUG Discuss] Crystal free license error

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: Sure, but only if you stop using red
 text. -)** Sorry about that. Whoever
 developed our email client (GoldMine) thought
 it would be a great idea to pick a random
 text color for every reply. (It's not).:
 The basic idea is that any requests to go
 to Crystal are placed into a FIFO:  queue
 (first in, first out). 

Ahhh, ok, I think I understand. You're
 right, it doesn't seem that complex, but
 definitely a couple of hours to get right.
 
Thanks much!
Mischa.

SUBJECT:   [ACFUG Discuss] Bad CFQuery Results

Has anyone else ever run into a situation where  does not
return the same records as a direct query on the database?

I have a rather large query joining 5 tables and 2 derived tables. The
'where' clause is cluttered with dynamically loaded conditions. There
are some  tags that keep me from easily inserting the
query as a single string. The 'order by' clause is handled by a custom
tag.

The point is this: under certain circumstances the query does not
respond properly, but I am sure that the query should be making it to
the  tag properly. If the query is run directly against the
database it works fine, and if it is run with certain options it works
fine, but other options make it return a result set that is too small.
It doesn't through an error, though, so If not for careful testing it
wouldn't have even been noticed.

I am using ColdFusion 7 and SQL Server.

Sorry for not posting any code, but I'm thinking you have either run
into this before or you haven't. I can't find anything online, perhaps
because the issue is difficult to describe.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] problem with session variables (i think) - DISREGARD I SOLVED IT

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

: 2. On my local server these are
 the same because I don't  have SSL set
 up.:  That's why it works fine there.
 
I had the same issue and I "resolved
 it" by exporting my certificate from production
 onto my test server. The browser will throw
 and error message saying that the certificate
 doesn't match the site when you request a
 page over https, but SSL itself works fine
 for testing.
 
There used to be a free IBM app, I believe
 Keyman that you could use to generate your
 own certificates but I've never been able
 to get that to work again.

[ACFUG Discuss] Injection attack?

../ContactForm.cfm?TopicId=3&Message=Question%2525252525252520about%2525252525252520item%2525252525252520Checkmate%2525252525252520-%2525252525252520Parts&MessageType=1
 

from an IP in Germany. This is about a product that is only useful for an 
American customer and this user has javascript turned off; fishy. Does anyone 
know:
- what this person is trying to do besides submitting rubbish
- how to check for this? (I'm filtering for and disallowing HTML, but this 
clearly passes that)

thx!

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] writing a Content Mngmt system in CF..FAQ or Howto?

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

 
Ajas, to answer your
 question about the files being created: I
 don't think any content management system
 would dynamically create code and then execute
 it, just to display a piece of content. I'd
 say that would be a very expensive operation
 and not very scalable. The CM's I have seen
 usually have some sort of template with a
 stylesheet that defines colors etc. The actual
 content (with a minimum of markup) is stored
 in a table and retrieved when a user requests
 a certain page: /show.cfm?template=ProductPage&ContentID=25.
The only possible application
 I can think of for page generation, is to
 generate true static html files on a regular
 basis to offload your database.
 
Hope that makes
 sense?
Mischa.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] cfform bug stuck on variable.

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Unless I'm missing
 something, even if your code works, the select
 box will never display more than one different
 vendor name...?
 
First you find all
 products for a certain vendor name, then
 you build a select list based on that vendor
 name.
 
I know I am not
 answering your question, but I think you
 should work that out first? (Unless that
 is how you want it to work).
 
Mischa.

 around "contains"

 sense.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] CF application using verity

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Yes, what you're suggesting
 is a good idea, however, I would go a bit
 further and place both Reason_Text and State
 in that first custom field by simply delimiting
 the data. Change the search page so that
 if the user chooses a state other than all,
 the following would be added to your Verity
 query:
 
custom1 CONTAINS
 [state]
 
(Depending on the
 value of Reason_Text, you may get too many
 hits and you can resolve that by including
 the delimiter char in the search (you may
 have to escape it) or query of query or something).

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Image from DB

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I beg to differ. Text
 may need to be searched and edited, images
 cannot (easily) be searched or edited when
 placed in a db. Also, almost all my images
 happen to be larger than 8k, the limit for
 what fits in a record for SQL server, so
 they are placed in a different area, slowing
 retrieval down. I realize that's just my
 personal situation.
/m
 
 
: Sure  it's data
 management.  You could keep text data
 on the file system too:  but  you
 typically don't--unless maybe it's a lot
 of text, right?  Images are:  no
  different--if they're not that big,
 why complicate matters by storing:  them
 on  the file system?  You're already
 having to do a DB lookup to know:  what
 to  retrieve--that's the crucial difference
 between "page furniture" and:  data.
   But whatever. :   :

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I'm doing this because
 I'm forced by a legacy application to do
 so, but it is a terrible strain on my CF
 and my db server. Most databases simply are
 not designed to efficiently handle these
 long records. Apart from that, editing an
 image becomes a nightmare. Security can be
 handled even if your images are stored as
 a file in the file system. In my opinion,
 the performance issues you may encounter
 marginalize the benefit of storing in a db.
 Just my $0.02.
Mischa.

I know this has
 come up previously, but I don’t know
 what to search for.
I need to generate
 an image that has that skewed text on it,
 so that spammers can’t read it, to
 validate the form submission is a human.
1) What do you
 CALL that thing?
2) Do you know
 if there is a tag or function out there somewhere
 (hopefully free) that auto generates it?
Thanks

Sure, scanning is cheap, but the headaches come with the questionnaire:

you're not compliant and really only a handful of the questions deal with data

If CC data travels through your system, you need to be CISP compliant:

"The PCI DDS requires that all merchants perform external network scanning to 
achieve compliance. Acquirers may require submission of scan reports and/or 
questionnaires by level 4 merchants."

Glad you figured it out :-)



#set ($tmpVend_number = ${token.getcnnSG().queryValue("SELECT Vend_number FROM

Now, CF code is not always pretty, but that line is ghastly IMHO. (Well, maybe

re: [ACFUG Discuss] First try at a real CF edit

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Just a hunch, try to add (), like so:

$orderitem.getPartNumber()

/m


> 
I am sorry if this question seems so incredibly simple but I am lost as to what 
to do. 
 
I need to make an edit to a CF file. 
 
It has listed in some cells that create an email that is an order sheet for us 
from an AbleCommerce cart. 
 
[code] 
   
   $orderItem.getSKU() 
   $orderItem.getName()$orderItem.getLineMessage() 
 
$LocaleUtils.formatCurrency($store,$orderItem.getUnitPrice(),"",true) 
  
   $orderItem.getQuantity() 
[/code] 
 
The question is: 
 
That I need the equivalent of a  
$orderitem.getPartNumber  
For the first row to replace the  
   
 
However when I revise that line of code to: 
$orderitem.getPartNumber  
I get: 
   $orderitem.getPartNumber? inside the cell output. 
 
What is happening? 
Why is it happening? 
How do I fix it? 
 
This app is CF on top of a Java app. 
I wonder if the $orderitem.getPartNumber is a Java command and I should be 
doing this some other way? 
 
Any and all help would be appreciated.

re[3]: [ACFUG Discuss] cfhttp retrieving a file

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

 I was just trying to take advantage of the vast ammount memory
on this box and avoiding the overhead of IO.

<$0.02>  I would argue that if a user is going to wait 30 seconds or more to 
download an mp3, it's not going to matter whether you spend two seconds to 
store the file on disk first. However, with a user having the ability to open 
up multiple windows and multiple users being able to hit your server, I would 
be concerned about every page request taking up 5MB (or whatever the mp3 file 
size is) of RAM. Not even considering the fact that it will be child's play to 
cache the request if it's a file, and much harder/expensive to do when you keep 
it in memory.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Best Image upload tag (manipulate, etc.)?

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

> Wondering about your mileage...

For image resizing, I've been using Alagad Image component with good success 
and performance.
http://www.alagad.com/index.cfm/name-aiccompress

/m


What is the best, most flexible image upload tag you have used? Free is not a 
requirement in this case. But solid, no known bugs and fast execution are a 
must.
Would also like:
image resize, take a 1 MB photo someone uploads and make it smaller without 
changing the size (H or W). 
file type restriction (easy, I know)
multiple files uploaded at once


Important - tag needs to work in either Cold Fusion or Blue Dragon and have 
been tested in Firefox and Safari (at least), in addition to IE.

Need to know what is the best (and/or easiest) way run code on the client
machine - we need to gather information from the registry, find things like
the machine name (http header vars are not reliable) and determine if
processes are running and then pass that info into a page.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] using a variable to build a variable name

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

So you need to process one or more formfields but you don't know the names at 
the time of processing? I had a similar requirement and here is how I solved it:




   for(FormField in arguments.FormVars)   // this will loop through all 
available form variables
   {
Quantity = structfind(arguments.FormVars, FormField);  // set the variable 
"quantity" to the value of the form variable
if(left(FormField, 2) EQ "c_" and right(FormField, 14) NEQ "_cfforminteger" 
and len(Quantity))   // check if this is one of the form vars I actually want 
to process. The formvars with names that end in _cfforminteger are created by 
CFFORM and can be ignored
{
 ConfigID = mid(FormField, 3, len(FormField));  // where I use "ItemID", 
you would use "InvoiceID"
... do something else...

}
   }  
   

The "trick" really is to prefix the fields you know you'll be interested in 
with something unique, like I did with "c_". Later, you can simply test for 
this.
Hope this makes sense.
Mischa.

BTW, I like CFScript, since it's a function, but you can write this is straight 
CF as well.





> Hey folks,

I was wondering if anyone had a solution to an issue I'm having that is 
resulting in some hair loss on my part by means of my hands.

I have a form that has repetitive fields that is built by using a loop.  

I append the form field name with a variable to distinguish between the 
different form fields: . 
 This works fine for creating unique names for my form fields but it creates a 
problem when it's time to write to the db. 

I can't recreate the variable names in my SQL statement for the insert or 
update:

UPDATE tablename
 SET InvAmt = ??"InvAmt#InvoiceQuery.InvId#"??
 WHERE ID=#ID#

Obviously that won't work.

Any ideas on how I can create the variable name for my SQL statement or any 
other solutions to my problem?

Thanks,
Jeff

re: [ACFUG Discuss] New user & question

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

Hi Max, welcome to the group!

I did something like that many moons ago. It used SQL Server 2000 Desktop 
Edition on the client, which used SQL native replication to a server. Lots of 
headaches IIRC especially for schema changes. If you want to go this route, 
start small, maybe two or three clients and use it for a while. Also, I would 
suggest to use a database's native replication techniques and not reinvent the 
wheel.
Hope that helps.
/m



> All,

Just joined the user group today. I have been a CF developer since 2000.

I need to find out if anyone had built or knows how to build an online/offline 
application. Something like a thin client that the user installs. When working 
offline the data is saved locally and then synced when the user is online 
again. 

Thanks! -Max

Is the column set to allow nulls? If not, that's your issue.

Yes, it is set to accept nulls.  The issue is the form passes a "" and when it 
tries to update a smalldate and a money field in the table it throws and error. 
 I put the SQL statement generated in the CF error into Enterprise Manager and 
dissected it field by field. The error that I get from Enterprise Manager  is

re[4]: [ACFUG Discuss] Spawning threads in Coldfusion: making my webapp run faster

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

What is happening as I thought it out, is that CF gets a request to execute 
something like GetPriceFromAmazon.cfm, GetPriceFromHalf.cfm, GetPriceFromBN.cfm 
all at the same time. This is the same as 3 users hitting your site at the same 
time and I believe CF can execute those requests at the same time as well (as 
defined by the parameter  Maximum number of simultaneous requests in cfadmin). 
If you execute these requests within one page, yes it will be synchronously and 
the time it will take is simply adding the individual page's times. In my 
scenario (if it works at all, it is just a thought so far), the total execution 
time will be slightly longer or equal to the single slowest page.

/m


> Isn't the nature of CF synchronous (when it comes to page requests)?
So regardless of the order in which you execute these things each one
will be executed one at a time on the java stack (FILO - first in last
out) think stacking plates on one of those buffet lines - that's the
way the java stack behaves

It may have the appearance of multi threaded but, I doubt it will
speed anything up in reality. It may look faster but, you still have
to wait for all those things to finish before you can do anything with
them. So multithreaded its not if that is the case.

Ive done only a few multithreaded apps (and they were not complex mind
you) in java and I'm not sure how CF behaves but when you do this you
may create more of a problem for yourself because you are increasing
the number of requests per user per page (if multiple users hit this
app).

Just some things to think about.

Here is the link to the java tutorial on threads... might be a little
more helpful than the javadoc link above:

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Tagging example in CF

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I've done this. When the user types in a non existing url, two things can 
happen on IIS:
- standard IIS 404 page is loaded
- CF default error template is loaded (in case user tries to access a file with 
an extension that is mapped to CF and I believe IIS is set to not check for the 
existence of that file).

One of the CGI variables (although different ones between standard 404 and CF 
error page, if memory serves me well) tells you which url the user tried to 
access, parse out the relevant bit, feed it into your search engine (or 
whatever logic you want to apply to it) and then display a message, or redirect.

Hope this makes sense.
Mischa.


> Good question. But for example:


www.somepage.com/computer - would display content in site regarding computers
www.somepage.com/johndoe - would display content in site regarding candidate 
john doe.

Just wondering if anyone is familiar and has done anything in CF. Is it a url 
variable sent a query? Or, a static page/directory with index page (contrary to 
what I stated above), where the search is cached and content pre-formatted. 


Is any of this making sense?


Here is an example:
http://www.newsvine.com/


Then, type "apple" or "hp" after .com/ and the content reflects that topic.

re: [ACFUG Discuss] converting wav files

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

You can use LAME from a CFEXECUTE...


http://lame.sourceforge.net/USAGE



> Hey all, I have a cfc (that is really just a wrapper for java) and it
is pulling some data down and writing out a wav file. I'd like to
either have coldfusion or java convert that file to an mp3 (or
anything else that can be natively played by flash).

Anyone know of a solution for this (I've searched the web a bit and
haven't come up with much).

Thanks

re[2]: [ACFUG Discuss] Spawning threads in Coldfusion: making my webapp run faster

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

I can't speak to the difference between regular frames and iframes, but you got 
the idea I had. I'm assuming the cfhttp part of CF will attempt to load all 
those (i)frames at the same time and open up multiple connections. I also 
assume that much of the wait you're experiencing is due to the remote server 
processing your request and not your server working hard. 
Let us know if it worked!
/m

Intriguing idea... :-)

So let's talk about this one... I can create one cfm template that has
multiple iframes in it... each iframe would would essentially be a
"thread" I want to spawn, right?

Furthermore, each iframe would just be another cfm template, but it
has code to go do work (in my case, go find the price of a book), and
then save the information to a database.

When the page is done loading, all the information will be saved to
the database AND, supposedly, this would all run faster because each
iframe would be doing its work at the same time as the other iframes.

Is the logic correct here?  Would the iframes really be doing their
work at the same time?  (Or should I use traditional frames?)

Thoughts?

Thanks!

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Spawning threads in Coldfusion: making my webapp run faster

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

As a low-tech solution, could you write a cfm page with frames that calls other 
cfm pages in those frames and then cfhttp the "top" page?
/m


> Hello All,

I spent some time and programmed a book aggregator ( pricemybook.com
).  Unfortunately, it runs extremely slow.

It is running slow because of the way I coded it:

I have a _udf.cfm template that contains all my functions.  For each
external website that I obtain a price from, I have a function that
goes out, gets the price (either via web services or cfhttp requests),
and then stores that price in a database.

The problem is that my code calls each of those functions one at a
time, not in parallel.  I would LOVE to call all the functions at the
same time and get back all the book prices at once, but I don't know
how to do that.

So, the question:  How can I call all my cffunctions in parallel?  Do
I have to create some threads and have each thread run one of the
functions?  Would this be easier to do if my code was CFC based
instead of function based?

Thanks!

re: [ACFUG Discuss] Establishing an email server

[Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10]

> We depend on an email server that is not under our control.  More often
than we would like, the email server is down, effecting several of our
applications that depend on email to complete a user request.  The
project officer has asked if we can establish our own email server.
** I'm with John, install an SMTP server on the CF server. Depends on your OS 
as to how/what to install.

On a related matter, the ColdFusion administrator allows us to specify
backup email servers, which I have done.  However, this feature doesn't
work, and the email administrator said it probably won't work for
reasons that I can't recall.  Anyone have experience successfully
failing over to a backup mail server?
** If the failing email server successfully accepts mail from CF but never 
sends, then CF will have no way of knowing to use the backup server.
