Well how do the stats packages come up with the 10 most common search keywords used to find your pages then? There must be some variable passed that appears in the logs somewhere. No? If that goes in the logs somewhere, it can be used, I'd have thought. But certainly I'd be very cautious

This CFDJ article is a good'un. I read it, and it took me 10 minutes to get my first RSS feed on a site. Looking rough, but the only work left to do is CSS and making the feed look pretty. Nice one. I've avoided RSS up to now, thinking it's going ot take more time to learn than I have

Isaac, Thanks for posting this about the onTap framework, something I overlooked before, and it's very interesting. I downloaded and installed it on my dev server, and when I look at my server variables, I see that onTap has set up a whole lot of variables at server level. In principle, I

My site is forgetting the session variables between pages, and I'm not sure why. It retains the login info when I use the CFID/CFTOKEN in the URL, but if not, the new page comes up and I'm logged out again. (sigh!) So far, I've explored the possibility that I've got the cfapplication tag wrong

AH! I think we've found the problem. I checked with the sysadmin and he had session vars turned off in the CFMX administration console. That would kind of put the kybosh on any session-based authentication wouldn't it. Now I'll have another go at it and see where we go from here. Thanks for

Logging users in with CFC

I'm learning about CFCs, and becoming more and more a devotee every day. I see lots of benefits with becoming adept at using them, but something has drawn my attention I've not seen an example of using a CFC to log users in and handle their authorization etc. I know the code isn't much

RE: Logging users in with CFC

2003-08-26 Thread Mike Kear
Tony, to be honest, I'm not sure. It's just that I haven't seen any examples of CFCs being used for that functionality, so I wondered why. It seems that one of the ways to collect all the functionality related to users is to have a users.cfc where you'd have a method called login, one called
