Using JCaptcha and FreeTTS to embed captcha and audio for the visually impaired
Hi everybody, I am hoping someone could provide me with some help in implementing this on my application. I am running ColdFusion 7 on a Windows Server. I have been asked to display a image and audio captcha in my form. I've visited both the JCpatcha )http://jcaptcha.sourceforge.net/) and FreeTTS (http://freetts.sourceforge.net/docs/index.php) websites. I have not been able to find any help online on how to set up the jar files in coldfusion. My Java knowledge is very very basic. Would anyone be kind enough to show me or at least point me to the right direction?

RE: Newbie tripping over SQL Single Quotes
Always wrap your query parameters in cfqueryparam tags as another poster already showed. To elaborate a little bit on that, using cfqueryparam will avoid the exact problem you are having with the single quote, but more importantly, not using cfqueryparam opens you up to all kinds of sql injections attacks that can cause big problems for you. The use of preserveSingleQuotes makes the problem even worse. You can see a good demonstration on how sql injection works and how to prevent it here: http://www.meetup.com/coldfusionmeetup/messages/boards/thread/3147031 - look for the Hack-Proofing Your ColdFusion Powered Sites presentation.

I have been asked to display a image and audio captcha in my form. I've visited both the JCpatcha and FreeTTS websites. I would recommend that you avoid implementing CAPTCHAs at all. That's probably not the answer you're looking for, but they're terrible solutions from an accessibility perspective. Instead, you might look at something like CFFormProtect (http://cfformprotect.riaforge.org/), which lets you block spammers just as effectively without the accessibility problems of CAPTCHAs. Your client may have specifically requested a CAPTCHA, but ideally the developer should recommend alternative solutions when those solutions are clearly superior.

Re: Comprehensive article on how CFID and CFTOKEN work?
I'm building a cart-like application where I intend to store the (usually anonymous) user's intra-session web site state in a database table. Using cfid and cftoken are the obvious choice to use to ID a given user's state (I do realize that it would be system-unique and wouldn't follow the user across computers, which is fine) when stored in the database, but I feel like my understanding of how (and when) CFID's and CFTOKEN's are created is incomplete. Is there a comprehensive guide to the how's and why's of cfid and cftoken available online? Thanks, Pete Pete, I'll take a crack at this based on all that I recall and about 14 years of experience with ColdFusion. =) CFID and CFTOKEN are set as persistent cookies by ColdFusion. This means that, assuming the end user has cookies enabled, the cookies are set and will retain the originally set value until they are specifically cleared by the end user. So, if a user visits your site for the very first time, ColdFusion will assign a new set of CFID and CFTOKEN values via a pair of cookies. CFID is assigned sort of like an identity or autonumber, while CFTOKEN may be set in two different ways. By default, CFTOKEN will be set as an 8-digit random number. However, there's an option in the ColdFusion Administrator under the Settings menu to assign CFTOKEN as a UUID instead of a random number. And if you're dealing with a cluster of servers that might have unique host names but the same domain name, there's a boolean argument for the cfapplication tag called setdomaincookies (default: false) which will set the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies as domain-level cookies so that any hostname on that domain can read/write/share them. Back many years ago, it used to be that there was a section in the registry where the seed value for CFID was stored and could be altered or reset. These days, I'm not sure off the top of my head if that still exists.

RE: Active Directory - Getting a users Accountname
Also, watch out for possible legal values that users pass in. They can enter: username domain\username domain/username usern...@domain.com You will need to strip off anything that is not the username before you use it in your CFLDAP filter, if you are filtering on sAMAccountName. If they type usern...@domain.com, you can filter on userPrincipalName. However, I usually just strip everything except the username.

I would recommend that you avoid implementing CAPTCHAs at all. That's probably not the answer you're looking for, but they're terrible solutions from an accessibility perspective. Instead, you might look at something like CFFormProtect (http://cfformprotect.riaforge.org/), which lets you block spammers just as effectively without the accessibility problems of CAPTCHAs.

Re: Is it possible to reference a cfc method using ajax?
That depends on the function's attributes. The returnFormat argument will automatically serialize the ColdFusion datatype into a JSON object. I suggest that anyone using it should play with the returns a bit to see what comes back for the different CF datatypes. Most things are fairly standard, with the exception of Adobe's implementation of returning a query. Adobe's implementation provides for a much smaller data return, but it isn't in the standard format used by most other app servers, so it requires a small bit of client-side parsing to get the intended result. Nothing painful, just important to know the difference.

Re: ColdFusion 8.0.1 Kills our Apache
Sounds like an Apache connector issue. You'll want to double check that your version of Solaris and Apache are supported by the CF Installer. If you've got your heart set on your current config, you may end up needing to compile the connector by hand for your particular system. Adobe was cool enough to think of situations like this before-hand and does offer compilable source code for their adapter just for situations like this. Props to Adobe for being forward-thinking in that regard. Very few companies would do that.

Re: ColdFusion 8.0.1 Kills our Apache
It's a bit out-dated, but here's the info: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_18572#Apache ---excerpt--- Where is the Apache connector source located and how can I compile my own Apache EAPI connector? For ColdFusion MX Updater Release 3 or higher, the code and compile instructions are included incf_root/runtime/lib/wsconfig.jar in the /connectors/src/ApacheModule.zip file. See ApacheBuildInstructions.txt in the ApacheModule.zip. ---excerpt--- I am not certain if this still applies to CF8, but it may be something similar. Regarding your version of Apache and Solaris, I wouldn't think that such a minor version number change could cause such an obvious problem, but I wouldn't rule it out. Also, as Dave suggested, check for errors both from the console and in the apache logs.

Re: Spry Auto Suggest values selection - HELP!
any suggestions, anyone? I have a Spry Auto suggest widget where I select a list of names from a cfc object which generates an XML data set. What I need to do is to add those selections to a list below the widget input box, so as I search in the auto suggest list and select a name John Doe, for example, I need to be able to add John Doe to the list below, as I continue selecting more names, until I got everyone. I would also need to be able to delete names from my list of selections and add new ones. Does Spry do that or perhaps Scriptaculous? How can I easily do that? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Re: Invalid method Code length
You'll have to break your method up in to smaller methods. CFSWITCH used to have this same problem, but Adobe (or maybe Macromedia) changed the compiler to work around it. CFC's also are exempt, but function bodies apparently aren't. Make sure you submit a bug to Adobe on it as well: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform On a related note, if you have a 2200-line method, chances are good it's time for some refactoring. There aren't hard boundaries on reasonable method length, but I rarely leave methods longer than a screen unrefactored. cheers, barneyb On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 12:34 PM, Jon F j...@thefid.com wrote: I get an error in CF while trying to create an object for a CFC.

Re: Invalid method Code length
A Google search indicates there is a Java limitation of 64k, but that answer doesn't satisfy me. I'm not sure what you mean by it not satisfying you. You can't create a function larger than that. There is no workaround, other than writing two or more smaller functions. Each function is compiled into a single class, which is why a single CFC could exceed the limit, as long as no individual function within that CFC exceeds the limit. But it is definitely a hard limit, and you can't do anything about that other than refactor your code.

Re: Invalid method Code length
Yes, I think it's a bug. Just because Java has a hard limit doesn't mean that CFML should. CFML is NOT Java. An analogous bug was fixed in CFSWITCH's compilation (the _factorN classes), and I don't see a fundamental difference here. Obviously the underlying Java is different, but from the CFML side it's the same. They're both JVM limitations affecting your CFML's structure. To put that another way, I've never seen any documented limits imposed on my CFML code's size, and Macromedia/Adobe have addressed issues that created undocumented limits. As to where the max-size line should be drawn, it's fairly irrelevant, but it's totally unreasonable to let the JVM's trickle up to CFML. All the more because there's no way to know what your CFML compiles down to in bytecode, so there's no way to predict where the JVM's hard limits will actually be in terms of your CFML. If there were a reliable way to do that, then inheriting the JVM's limitations implicitly would be somewhat reasonable, even if it'd be rather cumbersome. With Java, you can predict the line because the Java-bytecode transformation is documented, but with CF it's a black box. For OBD, and soon Railo, it isn't a black box so they have a bit of an argument in their favor. cheers, barneyb On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 1:19 PM, Dave Watts dwa...@figleaf.com wrote: Make sure you submit a bug to Adobe on it as well: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform Do you really consider that a bug?

Re: Newbie tripping over SQL Single Quotes
Something else that should be pointed out about the example... UPDATE Members SET PW = cfqueryparam value=#Encrypt(form.PW,EncryptKey)# / WHERE Member_ID = cfqueryparam value=#form.Member_ID# cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer / Simple one first - there's no cfsqltype attribute on the first cfqp. Although it defaults to varchar, this is one of the times when being explicit is a good idea. But, more importantly that than: even with cfqueryparam, the code may be insecure. Why? Well, cfqueryparam will ensure that form.member_id is an Integer, but it wont check it is the correct id. If this is a user-level password changing screen, and you're passing member_id from the form, you're allowing any user to change the password of any other user - simply by editing the form html (which is trivial in any modern browser) to specify a different value. If this is an admin screen, it's not an issue, since an admin might be allowed to edit anyone's password anyway, but if it's not then you should instead be storing the current user's id in the session scope, and using that, rather than passing it around with the form. ~| 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:317812 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Obviously the underlying Java is different, but from the CFML side it's the same. They're both JVM limitations affecting your CFML's structure. To put that another way, I've never seen any documented limits imposed on my CFML code's size, and Macromedia/Adobe have addressed issues that created undocumented limits.

Re: Is it possible to reference a cfc method using ajax?
Yeah, I have to look at the two formats again (I think the attribute is queryFormat), but I personally like the default format over the standard format. It has a much smaller footprint, with a lot smaller bit set going over the wire. If I remember correctly though, even the alternate format doesn't conform to what most consider the 'standard' format.

With cookies on, you can script a whole login sequence and use that as your load test. With cookies off, you can stress your server with 50,000 live sessions in the blinking of an eye. 2. The test scripts can read parameters out of a comma-delimited file. If you point the above-mentioned login sequence at a file containing a bunch of user accounts, you can get the worst of both worlds and have 50,000 live *authenticated* sessions. Kind of fun.

[FWD: RE: Invalid method Code length]
I don't really know much about how the aforementioned black box works,
but I wonder if it would be possible for CF to somehow break up your
code and split it into multiple classes behind the scenes.
I don't know if I am in the bug camp on this one, but isn't CF's job
to keep us from having to know about/deal with the Java stuff that
happens behind the scenes?
Even though I don't condone giant files of doom in your code, it seems
CF has failed to abstract us from what is happening by not finding a way
to gracefully work around the JVM's quirks.
But then again, I generally expect too much from CF. :) I seem to
remember a thread where Dave W and I argued about whether it was fair
that very deep recursion would throw a Java stack over flow error.

RE: Is it possible to use a CF variable in jQuery?
To me, that's kind of like asking Is it a good idea to use a database in my application? If you need something to happen on the server, then use CF. If you need processing to happen on the client, use JavaScript. If you want the JavaScript to be dependent on the outcome of CF code, then you dynamically produce the necessary JS in your CF or write JavaScript capable of executing appropriately based on the return of an Ajax call. It's not really that one is better, it's that they both have their place. ~Brad Original Message Subject: Re: Is it possible to use a CF variable in jQuery?

need some database advice
Hey Everyone, I have a project and I'm trying to figure out the best way to go about it. What I want to do is keep track of what songs a user has listened to and what songs they haven't. The first thing that comes to mind is a table with song IDs and a table with user IDs and a join table between the two that keeps track of what song a user has listened to. With 50,000 songs, that could be a lot of records in the join table. Is there a more efficient way to tackle this kind of problem? I don't think I'll have that many users, but even if I had ten users, that table could be pretty big. I'm trying to think if there are any tricks such as whether to store if a user has listened to a track or store if they haven't. I plan to have a button called mark all as listened, which could empty the join table of any records pertaining to that user if I was storing the tracks they didn't listen to. So the join table would initially start out very large for a user and then drop down... that's just one thought I had. If anyone has any tricks, I'd appreciate your advise!

Re: need some database advice
Databases are good at storing data. With proper indexing, a few million rows is nothing. I'd store tracks listened to.

I plan to have a button called mark all as listened, which could empty the join table of any records pertaining to that user if I was storing the tracks they didn't listen to. So the join table would initially start out very large for a user and then drop down... that's just one thought I had. If anyone has any tricks, I'd appreciate your advise!
