Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Paul Hastings
 What's the best way to be changing the colours of the blocks, given
 that they're not rectangular and all different sizes?

i'd suggest a simple GIS. it also allows users to interactively query a
parcel, spatially search for parcels, etc. it can be as complicated or as
simple as you need.

 How would you do it in flash without using remoting?

well i'd be concerned at the effort getting the map into flash. especially
if you want background features (streams, etc.).

RE: escaping character

2004-09-06 Thread Pascal Peters
Your problem is with how cf treats lists. The delimiter can't be present
in a value, or it will be treated as separate elements. You will need to
use a proper csv parser that allows a text qualifier (). Have you
considered CFHTTP to read the csv into a query object? In a recent
tread, someone suggested a Java csv parser, but I don't remember which
one.

I don't see a multilanguage setting anywhere in the CF Admin panel. We

text qualifier

2004-09-06 Thread Brant Winter
Ok - I've Googled me a text qualifier definition, so I have that under
control. Has anyone had experience with Flash Remoting ? Is it possible to
start to learn the basics via web tutorials ??? Any book suggestions ? I am
writing a small app to handle a group of doctors having to write scripts
that they owe our pharmacys'. The reason for the app is that they can owe up
to 200 scripts at any one time, and they just refuse to write them. I can
get a list of the scripts via a CSV file, and my intention is to allow the
pharmacy to upload the CSV file via a web/flash interface, write all
delimited data to a db table, and allow the doctors to log in to a secure
page and grab a list of their current outstanding scripts, tick them off and
generate say a 200 page pdf print job via cfxpdf. I am just wondering is it
would be beneficial to learn some flash remoting to write this app.

RDS Server has stopped working...

2004-09-06 Thread Andrew Dixon
Hi Everyone.

Bit of a strange on this morning. Our RDS server on our local
development server appears to have stopped working, but it only appear
to be via Homesite+ or CFStudio. If we try to access datasources via
Homesite+ or CFStudio we get the following error message:

An error occurred accessing RDS server: Error -1 occured. The
operation timed out.

However, I go to Windows Explorer and select Macromedia FTP  RDS
and then double click the development server entry it works fine and
displays a directory listing of the server. So I guess the RDS server
is working ok.

Any ideas what the problem is?

RE: escaping character

2004-09-06 Thread Pascal Peters
The cffile just reads the file, it doesn't parse anything.
A text qualifier is a character you place around text in a csv (usually
). When you have a comma in the text (surrounded by quotes), it means
it is just a comma, not a delimiter.

A,B,C,D == 4 elements ABCD
A,B,C,D == 3 elements AB,CD

A query object in cf is what you would get as a result from a cfquery.

Pascal made a minor typo. 
A query object in cf is what you would get as a result from a cfquery.
 should read
 A query object in cf is what you would get as a result from a cfhttp.

CFFILE will read your file into a variable in one big block. 
If you use CFHTTP to read your file in, it is possible to put your CSV 
data straight into a cfquery object.You can then loop through your 
query object and insert the data into the database.You should find 
this easier than trying to parse your CSV file manually.

Have a read up on CFHTTP and you should see what Pascal is trying to say 
to you.

Yes, it would read the data as if it came from a database table using
cfquery.

cfhttp url="" name=qData columns=columns
here if first line not column names textqualifier= delimiter=,
resolveurl=no timeout=20 charset=charset of the page/cfhttp
cfdump var=#qData#

Replace the values with your own and test to see the result. The csv
file must be accessible from the web (using a fully qualified url).

Re: escaping character

2004-09-06 Thread Michael Traher
A simple solution would be to see if your data supplier can use a
different delimiter.

Instead of a comma, if they can use a '|' (pipe symbol found to left
of 'Z' on keyboard) or a ~ (tilda) character then these tend not to
crop up in 'ordinary text'.

You could 'parse' the data yourself.That is look for the text
qualified  using the find function, mark this character position as
the start of a text field and look for the closing , mark this as the
end, now for the characters within this region strip out any delimiter
characters.Repeat for rest of string.

You need single quotes around your text and dates must in an appropriate

You should look into using CFQueryParam and possibly CreateODBCDateTime

If you choose to go the way of the single quotes, you should only 
add them around text fields, not around numbers and dates.
However, it is *highly* recommended to use cfqueryparam.

With regards to this thread, 
I am about to embark on doing alittle functionality to a site where
people will be able to upload CSV files. There will be different CSV
types for different data and I wondered if
a) there are some good CSV functions out there for parsing into db or
query (different delimiters, text qualifiers etc)
b) if anyone has done a template to check a CSV against? What I mean
is this CSV should have x number of columns and they are x, y, z
etc

Mark,

Don't quote me on this, you'll have to double check, but in reference to 
item 'a' of your list I think I remember seeing a UDF function library 
at cflib.org for handling CSV files. If that wasn't it then I may have 
seen a CFC somewhere (cfczone.org maybe). There are resources out there...

Strange WS Behavior

2004-09-06 Thread Cutter (CF related)
Since yesterday I've noticed that I can't connect to any WebServices 
through Flash or ColdFusion (this is from both my dev server in-house, 
as well as my production server at my ISP). And some of the WebServices 
I am trying to connect to are not of my design but from the world at 
large (i.e.: a service I found at xmethods for pulling the current 
temperature). I'm not positive, but looking at some of the error codes 
from the CF side it almost looks like the soap definitions reference 
(which we have no way of controlling that I know of) has been moved on 
the apache.org site. Does anyone else see this behavior or could 
possibly test?

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Claude Schneegans
Hi,

I have a custom tag (CFX_MapData) on the back burner that would do exactly this.
It sets colors according to values from a databse on a gif file reprensing any map
with a maximum of 250 areas.
This tag is sort of a cousin of CFX_Mapclick tha you can see at the address below.

If you are interested, let me set up a demo.

Re: Free for non-commercial usage? Donationware?

2004-09-06 Thread Jake .
How would you enforce commercial users to actual pay for it? I know
most companies are honest and would pay, but there are still many that
would just go, well we have download it might as well us it.

This is why I'm asking the question. I think that there is enough honesty that this would work out, but I'm interested in other people's experience with this concept. Is there really as much honesty as I'd like to believe there is out there?

I'm actually thinking about this idea because I realized that since this is a side project, I'm as interested in the Amazon wishlist donations as I am in cash.

Personally if I was going in this direction I would probably make two
versions, a lite version and a pro version. Simply write you
application as the pro version and then extract some the feature to
create the lite version. Then you get the best of both world.
Non-commercial and commercial people can use the lite version but if
they want/need the extra functionality in the pro version then they
have to pay. You would still get the feedback and hopefully earn some
money from sales of the pro version.

But that's not really what I'm trying to do. My hope is that:

a) I get a pretty cool software out to the world and the non-commercial users have a viable product that is very cool to use.

b) By seeing how cool this product is, they either donate as a thank you for the non-commercial or pay for the commercial version (presumably for work related projects).

The point isas much to me to make a few extra bucks (and get a few things off my wishlist) as it is to create a product that becomes a de facto piece of code.

Any other ideas/experiences?

CFMail Forwarding

2004-09-06 Thread Mark Leder
I have a CFMail routine on a website which I host in which the mail server
is at a separate location (the client's).

When I want to have an email sent from, say
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (as in an autoresponder form), do I set
the CFMail Server attribute to their mail server, such as
mail.myclientswebsite.com?

On the remote mail server, do they need to open a relay based on the IP
address of the website, which I host?

Re: Free for non-commercial usage? Donationware?

2004-09-06 Thread Matt Robertson
Donationware doesn't really work to any meaningful degree even if you
have *really* large numbers.The sad fact is that far, far too many
people in our line of work expect software they download for free is
free for all uses.

There are many individuals who will be the exception to this rule, but
expect it to be a rule nonetheless.

You won't need to dig far to discover this I'm afraid.The original
developer of ASSP -- arguably the best server-side anti-spam product
out there -- bailed when he couldn't get any monetary support, needed
some and his appeals to the community fell on deaf ears.And that
product saved its users -- many of them corporate -- zillions. 
FCKEditor was the 7th-most-active project at SourceForge a few days
ago, and is used by boatloads of CF and other developers.Their donor
list is... 2 developers long, and neither contributed over $20.

The 'lite' and 'pro' ideas are the only things I have seen work well. 
I've only done them myself on two different items, and both have given
satisfactory results.One has given VERY satisfactory results and
only sells for US$10.Thats almost so cheap it seems not worth the
trouble.But the thing is, its a lot easier to pry $10 out of a tight
fist than it is to pry $100.And the number of $10 bills you'll get
will **more** than make up for the few big scores you'll make with
$100.

Give away your 'lite' but don't cripple it.Make it a great product
in its own right.Put in a 'non-commercial only' stipulation to cover
that base and give yourself a small bump from an honest few... but
expect it to be only a very, very few.Then bump up the functionality
to a small but undeniably useful degree for your 'pro'.Go for
legions of users who appreciate the free product and -- once hooked --
will want the added features that you are asking only a small sum for.

So, I listed the protocols --  I don't know which one(s) to check for.

What I am trying to do is write a script that automates CF startup, and 
sleeps (or loops) until CF is up and the port is accepting http 
requests.

I have modified an example I found to do this by invoking a Perl script 
that, in turn, interacts with telnet( apparently shell scripts have 
difficulty interacting ).

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet;
$telnet = new Net::Telnet ( Timeout=30, Port=8081, Errmode='die');
$telnet-open('localhost');
$telnet-waitfor('/220/');
$telnet-print('hello just-testing.org');
($output)=$telnet-waitfor('/250/');
$telnet-print('quit');

I'd rather not use an additional Perl script if possible)

I can brute force a delay using a long sleep, but this is not very 
elegent

Maybe the expect command will allow me to script telnet interaction.

If you could point me in the right direction, I will appreciate it.

TIA

cfx_getimage on CFMX / blob images with ASP

2004-09-06 Thread Ryan Roskilly
I can use the cfx_getimage tag just fine on CF 5.0. But no luck with it on CFMX. Anyone using this tag? 

As a backup plan I'm using ASP to retrieve and send to the browser but I cannot seem to get it to write the file to disk. Anybody with ASP experience that could help me out?

FILE: show.asp

img src="">

FILE: getimage.asp

%@ LANGUAGE=VBSCRIPT %
%
' Clear out the existing HTTP header information
Response.Expires = 0
Response.Buffer = TRUE
Response.Clear

' Change the HTTP header to reflect that an image is being passed.
Response.ContentType = image/jpg

Set cn = Server.CreateObject(ADODB.Connection)
' The following open line assumes you have set up a System DataSource
' by the name of myDSN.
'Remember to change the following connection string parameters to reflect the correct values
'for your SQL server.

cn.Open DSN=idx_ds1;UID=isfdvee;PWD=sdfsfved;DATABASE=MLSNHSQL

RE: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Dave Watts
 You can use Remoting in CF 5.0 - but you'd have to buy it.

I'm not even sure you can use it at all. If you don't have CFMX or JRun, you
can buy either Flash Remoting for Java or for .NET, but you wouldn't be able
to write CFCs to interact with it.

CMFX 6.1 Installation Problems

2004-09-06 Thread Michael T. Tangorre
Ok. I have enver had installation issues with CF before that I could not
figure out in a minute or two, but this one has me stumped.

I had CFMX 6.1 installed and Blackstone Alpah. Both worked fine together as
long as only one service was on at once... no big deal. I install the CFMX
6.1 updater and then neither work. So looking around I see that IIS keeps
stopping the default website, odd.

I mess around with it for a few minutes and notice that the local directory
showing up in IIS for CFIDE is appearing as D:\\CFIDE (yes the double slash
is there). Weird. Now I change it to D:\CFIDE and restart the website, and
low and behold IIS stops the site again.

In the event viewer I see a bunch of errors relating to:

Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error calling routine
IEventSystem::Query.hr = 0x80040155.

Application image dump failed.
Server Application ID: {02D4B3F1-FD88-11D1-960D-00805FC79235}
Server Application Instance ID:
{EAA87F12-702C-4440-BA77-06AF6CA5F78A}
Server Application Name: System Application
Error Code = 0x80004005 : Unspecified error
COM+ Services Internals Information:
File: d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\shared\util\svcerr.cpp, Line: 1259
Comsvcs.dll file version: ENU 2001.12.4414.258 shp

I then uninstalled CFMX 6.1 and Blackstone Alpha and just reinstalled CFMX
6.1 and the same thing happens. The CFIDE is mapped to D:\\CFIDE and IIS
keeps stopping the site and the above errors keep appearing in the event
viewer.

Anyone have any suggestions?

OS: Windows XP Pro (SP2)
CFMX 6.1 Developer Install (server installation)
Blackstone Alpha

Thanks,

Mike

RE: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Jim Davis
Oops - thought I lost that mail.

Anyway the second possibility with DHTML, if the areas are large, but
slightly irregular, would be to set a grid of squares (or rectangles) under
your display (using absolute positioning in a relatively positioned box) -
as large as you could make them but small enough so that only one set of
polygons is under each area.You can then use the transparency idea from
the first item but instead of setting a single background color you'd set
all of the background colors for that item's portion of the grid.

When I did this the determination of the grid was very simplistic: I did it
by eye then created a new property for each grid span which indicated what
area it was under.Then I just looped through the span collection looking
first of the existence of that property then for a match before changing
color.

It works, but depending on how irregular the objects are you can be dealing
with very small grid cells. and Flash would probably be much, much easy in
the long run.

You can use Remoting in CF 5.0 - but you'd have to buy it.There are also
several other methods to transfer information to Flash - you can use
loadvars, pass in information as URL variables or as attributes in the
Flash call in your HTML.

Depending how irregular the patterns are you might be able to get away with
DHTML.I've done this two ways in the past:

1) Instead of changing the color of the whole shape just pick a highlight
color (in this it might be the roads or the homes for example, not the whole
block).You can then make that part of the image transparent and let a
settable background color show through.This is nice if the shapes are
regular enough to allow for things not to overlap much.

Subject: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

I have a prospective client - a real estate developer who has a
subdivision we're proposing a site for. He wants a map of his
subdivision and wants to have the colours of the various blocks change
depending on their sale status showing in a query when the page is
called. (i.e. sold, available,on holding deposit etc).

What's the best way to be changing the colours of the blocks, given
that they're not rectangular and all different sizes?

Before you yell FLASH REMOTING!it's CF5.0 only, not CFMX so flash
remoting isn't an option.

IS DHTML a way to go here, with layers changing colour based on the
value of the 'status' field?or perhaps CSS?

RE: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Jim Davis
Depending on the quality of the original map (digital would be much better
than a scan) you should be able to use the trace applications that come with
most vector drawing tools to get the map into Flash.

I'm a huge fan of CorelDraw which comes with CorelTrace - it'll do the job
nicely given decent input.

i'd suggest a simple GIS. it also allows users to interactively query a
parcel, spatially search for parcels, etc. it can be as complicated or as
simple as you need.

 How would you do it in flash without using remoting?

well i'd be concerned at the effort getting the map into flash. especially
if you want background features (streams, etc.).

cfloop / cfquery and displaying results

2004-09-06 Thread Wurst, Keith D.
hi everyone. i have a question concerning cfloop, cfquery and how to display information most effectively on a page. here is the situation. i have two queries. the first query gets all my main topics. the second query gets all my sub topics. my where clause in my second query uses an IN statement and utilizes the valuelist of the results of the first query. in the past what i have done is just performed the first query, and then placed the second query within a cfloop of the results of the first one to display all the sub topics. this time around i want to build a result set on the fly without having to put the second query within my cfloop tag. any suggestions are greatly appreciated. thanks so much.

Re: Free for non-commercial usage? Donationware?

2004-09-06 Thread Matt Robertson
No offense taken, guys.

I think the only diff between what Andrew and I originally recommend
is that I suggested making the 'lite' non-commercial only.I figure
this may be a spur to some corporate types to pay up.I have no idea
if that has added any sales its a fairly new idea for me.

One thing about this lite vs. pro stuff:You'll add quite a bit to
your dev time doing it.Depending on the complexity of the app it can
be quite a pain to do updates, as what you wind up doing after the
first hackfest is developing so much new code you have to start from
scratch to come up with another lite version.Code reuse and some
sort of framework (insert your favorite fw name here) helps a lot to
minimize that.

p.s. if you are in the U.S. and working take a break!Its a holiday
already.I'm heading out for a trail ride in a bit.As soon as I
finish this one last code bit...

Re: cfloop / cfquery and displaying results

Hi.

You could keep to pretty much the same, but instead of doing a
database query inside the loop speed it up by doing a query of query.
Outside the loop you will need an extra query to get all the data for
the sub-query to use as the query you are going to query, but this
will increase the execution time vastly and will mean only a small
amount of coding changes.

Subject: cfloop / cfquery and displaying results
To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

hi everyone. i have a question concerning cfloop, cfquery and how to
display information most effectively on a page. here is the situation.
i have two queries. the first query gets all my main topics. the
second query gets all my sub topics. my where clause in my second
query uses an IN statement and utilizes the valuelist of the results
of the first query. in the past what i have done is just performed the
first query, and then placed the second query within a cfloop of the
results of the first one to display all the sub topics. this time
around i want to build a result set on the fly without having to put
the second query within my cfloop tag. any suggestions are greatly
appreciated. thanks so much.

RE: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

 I assumed that you could use Remoting for ASP and interact 
 with it using the COM interface.

I don't think there is a Flash Remoting for ASP, just for .NET and Java.

RE: CMFX 6.1 Installation Problems

2004-09-06 Thread Dave Watts
 I then uninstalled CFMX 6.1 and Blackstone Alpha and just 
 reinstalled CFMX
 6.1 and the same thing happens. The CFIDE is mapped to 
 D:\\CFIDE and IIS keeps stopping the site and the above 
 errors keep appearing in the event viewer.
 
 Anyone have any suggestions?

I haven't run into this problem myself, but I recommend that you delete the
IIS virtual server, create a new one, then run the web server configuration
utility to connect CFMX to that server.

interesting...not sure why that would be.

I run a farm of linux servers and the following worked fine for me on my

netstat -alpn | grep (my port here)

so your main goal is just to see if the service is running?

why not just run the cfstat utility?or are really trying to get the

you can also check the jrun.xml file to see what port it is setup to run 
on here:

Re: SOT: Nix shell script to test if CF is running on port xxxx

2004-09-06 Thread Dick Applebaum
Josh

Thanks for your help

Based on what you posted, I did some experimenting and found something 
that appears to work --the first 2 tests were run after the server 
(9090 in this case) was started, but had not yet become ready.The 3rd 
test shows the server is ready.

So it, appears that I have something that I can test for in a loop.

Is there a best practices wway to test for something like this -- say 
with a sleep for a few seconds, and a max number of iterations so it 
doesn't loop for ever?

Dick

CF5.0 - sending many emails

2004-09-06 Thread Mike Kear
I seem to recall that in CF5.0 there was a problem that occasionally
the server would send an email dozens, even hundreds of times to the
same person if there was a hiccup between CFMAIL and the OS mail
server.Does anyone remember this?

We have this problem and need to find a solution.The client's
saying we'll need to buy another mail server, but I think i recall
that was one of the fixes that was incorporated in the 5.1update. 
Does anyone else remember?

And is the CF5.1update still available?

I'm sorry I dont remember myself.It's all so long ago. ah ... how
time passes!

Hey Mike,

Here's the page with all the updaters for CF.

http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#up
dater

I don't see a CF5 updater (or 5.1 anywhere -- didn't remember there
being a 5.1 release / update) but there's a link to the hotfix /
security update page which does have a list of all the hotfixes for
CF5.

http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn17883.htm#
50

Unfortunately the cfmail issue you mentioned in particular doesn't
ring any bells for me and I don't see anything comparable after a
cursory glance at the hotfix list for CF5.

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Claude Schneegans
Ok, you can see a preview of the tag here:
http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/mapdata/mapdataDoc.cfm

It should be available at tagStore in a couple of days, when the docs is completed.

In your case, you would just need a table for all your blocs,
each bloc should use a specific color in the palette and have the color index in a column,
finally, each bloc could have all possible values in a status column, ie:
1 = sold,
2 = available
3 = on holding deposit, etc...

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Mike Kear
Claude, this looks great.I think it'll do the job well.Our static
map is at http://www.tallwoods.com.au/r_stages/r_stage6plan.html and
as you can see it's got less than 100 lots to sell, so therere would
be room for allocating that many colours to the tag.I guess one of
the problems with this approach is if you have too many colours taken
up for the tag to modify, you dont have anything left to draw the
non-dynamic parts with.But in this case it looks like the approach
will work.

And it will get us around a problem the client dropped on us last
night - it's a retirement village, and a lot of his prospective buyers
have netscape4 browsers.So things like using CSS2 or flash arent
goin to work.any browser should be able to display a gif though,
and all the processing is done on the server.I like it.

Please let me know when it's on the tag gallery.

To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You were right, none of those PC from internal network can access the
website with domain.
 but if you are right about the another DNS server for internal
requests, how it was working fine before. I never added the domains in
the host file before. and as soon as website is up, it was opening
from all the pcs on network, and there was no DNS that time either.

 thanks

Can you use the domain names on other PCs on the network and see the
 sites properly?
 
 Here, we're behind a firewall using NAT... port forwarding...
 
 Presently, I cannot use domain nameswith other PCs on the network.
 If I do, I just get the firewall box. But the external world has
 access without trouble. (I'm waiting for this to be fixed) I was told
 we needed another DNS server to serve internal requests. As I am not
 the network admin, I have not resolved this problem.
 
 So, on the webserver here, I cannot access the site by domain name,
 even if I'm on the server (the actual box the request comes to)
 because of the NAT box.
 
 Just thought I would throw that out there...

  Can this machine 'ping' it's own real world address (as both an IP and a

Re: Free for non-commercial usage? Donationware?

2004-09-06 Thread Jake .
No offense taken, guys.

I think the only diff between what Andrew and I originally recommend
is that I suggested making the 'lite' non-commercial only.I figure
this may be a spur to some corporate types to pay up.I have no idea
if that has added any sales its a fairly new idea for me.

One thing about this lite vs. pro stuff:You'll add quite a bit to
your dev time doing it.Depending on the complexity of the app it can
be quite a pain to do updates, as what you wind up doing after the
first hackfest is developing so much new code you have to start from
scratch to come up with another lite version.Code reuse and some
sort of framework (insert your favorite fw name here) helps a lot to
minimize that.

p.s. if you are in the U.S. and working take a break!Its a holiday
already.I'm heading out for a trail ride in a bit.As soon as I
finish this one last code bit...

Thanks Matt, great thoughts. 

I'm not crazy about the idea of a lite version simply because I'm not into keeping up two versions (Remember, I'm doing this for fun :)), but it's still a great idea.

I'm disappointed to hear that donationware doesn't work... I had hoped we as a community would be more respectful than that!

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

Correction -- if I click on the Map icon I get the map (e.g. Maqp of 
France)-- just no detail images

 Ok, you can see a preview of the tag here:

It should be available at tagStore in a couple of days, when the docs 
 is completed.

In your case, you would just need a table for all your blocs,
each bloc should use a specific color in the palette and have the 
 color index in a column,
finally, each bloc could have all possible values in a status column, 
 ie:
1 = sold,
2 = available
3 = on holding deposit, etc...

Use a STEP of 1

Hey Claude

Since you are building this tag as we speak -- I always thought the 
nest looking maps were the ones that had the edges (5-6 pixels) a 
slightly darker shade of the same color -- gives a 3-D effect!

cfquery error on new database

2004-09-06 Thread joe velez
ok .. strange scenario. i have a script that is creating a mysql database on the fly. no login/password is required. 

i create the tables.

i create a dsn on the fly as well.

once the db is created i try to run a quick query on it but receive an error like:

General error: Unknown database 'MYDATABASENAME' 

but, if i run the script w/o the query at the end, and create a link to another page that runs the same query i omitted it works fine.

is there a time limit on how long i need to wait between creating a datbase and accessing it? i even tried to run a loop 1 through 1 between the steps, but no luck.

any suggestions?

thanks

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Paul Hastings
 Depending on the quality of the original map (digital would be much better
 than a scan) you should be able to use the trace applications that come
with
 most vector drawing tools to get the map into Flash.

well as you can see from the map in question most spatial data start life
on paper. these have to be scanned  vectorized--depending on the complexity
 quality of the source document can be like a trip thru hell's slums.
think of something like a contour map (representing lines of elevation) in
nepal.

i've seen plenty of skanky flash maps, especially those representing
spatial data with shared topology like polygons representing political
boundaries (one boundary is shared among two polygons) where the polygons
float around leaving ugly gaps when you symbolize them or dead areas that
can't be identified/selected (the most frequently used GIS function is what
the heck is that identification, point  click on a spatial feature to find
out what it is). i know it can be done well (i've some nice flash-based GIS
apps, the ones that are produced by the oz antarctica folks like
http://aadc-maps.aad.gov.au/atlas/ are sweet) but the effort to get
something complex right isn't trivial. and the map in question is fairly
complex. there's the lots, lot IDs, setbacks, roads, vegetation, etc.
besides the bits of the golf course. and while that map might show lots'
status, it's almost impossible to know the lot ids from that map. if i was
a nosy so-and-so i'd like a lot near the entrance so i can watch comings 
goings, which exact lot is that? if i was a bit paranoid of terrible
golfers, i might be worried about getting beaned by stray golfballs or
having one come thru my living room window. which lots are in beaning
distance of the fairway?

 I'm a huge fan of CorelDraw which comes with CorelTrace - it'll do the job
 nicely given decent input.

when we did this for a living, i swore by r2v http://www.ablesw.com/

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Claude Schneegans
Claude, this looks great.I think it'll do the job well.Our static
map is at http://www.tallwoods.com.au/r_stages/r_stage6plan.html and
as you can see it's got less than 100 lots to sell, so therere would
be room for allocating that many colours to the tag.

Yes, I look at your image, and there will be some work to do on it, but not that much,
The way to do it would be to lower the number of colors to about 50 or 60, which is quite
enough to get the bacgrounds, the trees, etc.
Then you should define about 60 new coulours in the palette, and paint each area with one of them.
and save the file in gif format.
A couple of hours of work.

it's a retirement village,
and a lot of his prospective buyers
have netscape4 browsers.So things like using CSS2 or flash arent
goin to work.any browser should be able to display a gif though,
and all the processing is done on the server.I like it.

I just checked it under Netscape 4, and the image does not show, but is is certainly
a minor problem, probably the same kind of problem Dick has on his Mac.

Please let me know when it's on the tag gallery.

Ok, but don't expect it to be free, although really not expensive.

I get no images on any Mac browser

I don't get them under any version of Netscape either, it must be a problem with MIME types or so.
The image is sent using a
CFCONTENT TYPE=image/gif tag,
but it probabily needs some more stuff added in the header, I'll check this tomorrow.

RE: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Jim Davis
You don't have to tell me how much of a pain the ass maps can be.;^)

The New Year's Eve site I do (www.firstnight.org
http://www.firstnight.org/ ) needs a fairly complex map of Boston with
locations and special markers which of course change every year.I've been
doing the site going on nine years and the map is always one of the most
challenging aspects.

If you do what to vectorize it then I would first try to eliminate as much
detail as you can from the map.For the conversion process you don't need
any of the text, doted lines or cars for example.You might then posterize
the image to cut down on the number of colors (it'll make for a cleaner
trace).

This looks like a surveyors map - you might want to see if you can get a
hold of the pure lot map without the trees - that would make things much
simpler.

In fact if you might see if there's a digital original.It doesn't look to
me like this was hand-drawn - many of the features are exact clones of each
other.(Of course I still want to date Jessica Rabbit so my grasp of what's
real and what's generated is tenuous at best).At the very least see if you
can snag a higher resolution version to do the trace.

After the trace most programs offer a node reduction tool (hopefully
automated) that will simplify the vector at the cost of some detail.

Once you've got the trace you could just use the lot shapes as an overlay
using the real map as the base layer.If you did go with Flash you could
make some very nice transparency effects using them.

It's tedious as hell, but do the kind of thing you're talking about you're
going to have get into this map pretty deeply anyway and a lot of this stuff
just needs to be done by hand.

Re: Displaying a dynamic map - how?

2004-09-06 Thread Mike Kear
Thanks for your advice Jim.I never cease to be amazed at the amount
of knowledge on this list.Collectively, I think CF-Talk comprises
all there is to know about ColdFusion and its applicatoins.

Anyway, Jim, I spoke to the client today again and he has a vector
version of the map graphic.It's either a Illustrator file or a 
Freehand file,either way I can import it into Freehand and then work
on it from there.I think image files can go directly into
Flash2004Pro from Freehand.Or if not, saving it to EPSformat will
allow it to be imported into almost anything.But having a vectorised
drawing will most definitely cut down the amount of work i have to do,
and if i'm careful it'll make sure i dont have to verify the accuracy
of every detail, because it's the client's work not mine.

Cheers
