Script Protect Question
I've recently moved to a new host who has global script protect turned on in CFAdmin. All in all it's not a bad thing, but I have some e-commerce pages where the gateway processes on another server then responds by sending back some form variables which contain data like the approval code, confirmation number, etc. Script protect is blocking the form variables and I'm recording blanks for these transactions. I don't really want to turn off script protect globally, but I do want to shut of the forms protect on selected pages. How can I list the pages and/or form variables I want to allow as an exception? I looked at the CF documentation and did not find it to be that clear.

You could probably do this by adding conditional logic in Application.cfc that turns the feature off for a specific list of pages. Otherwise, you could put the problematic pages in a separate directory and give them their own Application.cfc.

You are also getting exclamation points, colons, and periods.

Re: Script Protect Question
if you were not using scriptProtect before anyway, is there a specific reason you want it now enabled? relying on ScriptProtect is likely to just lull you into a false sense of security, although it is better than nothing. FuseGuard is not a major revamping, it is actually quite easy to insert into your site. Web Application Firewall require no revamping of any sites at all as you install it at web server and can apply it to all sites in one swoop. there is also this: http://portcullis.riaforge.org/ On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 4:43 PM, Robert Harrison rob...@austin-williams.com wrote: Understood, unfortunately I'm not in a position to revamp all the 21 sites we just moved right now and change the structure.

Group, I have written a rather simple report to indicate pages on the site that have not been updated within a specific time span. I am outputting this report to a CSV file. The entire process works, but when I click the link to the generated report, only the first two lines are displayed in Excel. If I go to the file location and open the file directly, it opens normally and displays all the information contained. Has anyone seen this before?

RE: Odd CSV Results
Good. Glad it's solved. I've done a lot of CSV files and they do seem to work well once you get the syntax correct.

RE: stripping characters for meta description
For meta tags I just use a simple replace list to strip the quotes. I use the list so I can replace the standard quotes and those left and right smart quotes from word. I'm assuming you're doing this because your meta description is getting truncated when it hits the first in-line quote. The HTML thinks that's the end of the string, yes?

RE: HMail server
The heartbleed bug allowed anyone to ask my mail server to give them the last few hundred bytes of data that passed through the server including user names and passwords used to authenticate. No guessing needed. Pretty serious bug. It doesn't only affect Hmail.. it also affects many non windows web servers. It is a bug in Open SSL which Hmail uses At 08:24 PM 5/12/2014, you wrote: I would suspect that they guessed or hacked your account password to authenticate unless you are only relying on SSL to allow relaying. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358647 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Loading message for excel pages
All - I have a following link a href=javascript:callExcel()Generate excel/a the function callExcel() just uses document.form.action='excel.cfm?requesttimeout=1500'; When the 'Generate excel' link is clicked, the user stays on current page, and the excel file is generated. The user never sees the actual 'excel.cfm' which has 'Please wait...' message as we are writing lot of data to excel. I tried to overcome this by going to an intermediate screen which has 'Please wait' message, and then redirecting to excel.cfm page, but once the excel is written, I can still see 'Please wait...' message. What is the best way to handle this? Thanks. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358648 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Loading message for excel pages
The best suggestion would be use ajax. But the quickest method would be to target the link to an Iframe and have the activity happen there and display a please wait javascript message.
