CFPDF image extraction problem

2012-11-19 Thread Don L

Hi,

I'm using CF10 for Windows to extract png images from a PDF doc.
Here's the code:
cfpdf action=extractimage format=png overwrite=true
source=C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot\dev\myPDF.pdf
destination=#ExpandPath('/images')# /

fyi,
C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot\dev\images folder exists.

Err msg:
 An error occurred during EXTRACTIMAGE operation in the cfpdf tag.
Error: com.adobe.internal.pdftoolkit.core.exceptions.PDFFilterFormatException: 
DCT Error: -100 

What could be wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Trimming extra white area for a CF generated PDF doc

2012-09-21 Thread Don L

Hi,

For CF9 or Railo 3.x, the following code generates extra white space like half 
a page at both the top and the bottom for a generated PDF doc when dynamic 
content exceeds one page, I wonder if we have a way to trim all these necessary 
white spaces.  It would be extremely desirable to have the ability to set 
dynamic height for the PDF doc.

cfdocument filename=myDoc.pdf format=pdf orientation=landscape 
fontEmbed=yes overwrite=yes
cfprocessingdirective suppressWhiteSpace = true
html dynamic content here...
/cfprocessingdirective
/cfdocument

Thanks in advance.

what if you enable the whitespace removal in the admin ?

On Fri, Sep 21, 2012 at 6:29 PM, D



Interesting thought, still not to avail.  And I should add, in most cases, the 
generated PDF is ok, many times it would be just one page, and when we have 
more than 5 line items the PDF also looks ok, natural flow to next page.  It's 
just the 3 or 4 line items that makes the PDF doc centered and having the extra 
top and bottom blanks.
Thanks tho.

Ahe, what if I cheat, if it's 3 or 4 lines items I'll create some extra rows 
like 2 then the server would treat it just as 5 or 6 line items. Hmm, let me 
check, hang on.

Coldfusion 8 (Standard)

2011-11-20 Thread Don L

Hi,

I bought a standard version of Adobe Coldfusion 8 for $1,299 about three years 
ago. Initially intended to use it for a hosted app but change plan, so, never 
use it. If I don't transfer its ownership the money would be wasted.  If you 
really need cf9, you can still buy this version and then upgrade to cf9, of 
course, I'll transfer the ownership to you at a good price.  If interested, 
please drop me a line at do...@yahoo.com

Thanks.

RegExp Question

2009-11-02 Thread Don L

I'm trying to break a large chunk of text, so, a user can click on MORE to to 
read the rest of it.
Using  the following technique has some success, however, it does not seem to 
be good enough.

-- cut off point, 500 characters
cfset brkR = MID(myTxt,500,5)
cfset brk = Find( , brkR)

cfoutput
#Left(myTxt,500+brk)#
then, upon clicking the MORE link, it display the rest as follows:
-- the main body of the txt
#Mid(myTxt,501+brk,Len(myTxt))#

/cfoutput

Attempt to use
cfset brk = REFind([\s], brkR)
does not help or I didn't do it right.

It sort of works, but an issue is, it now shows , nbsp; etc. special 
characters in the breaking area.  Question, what is a better way to do this?  
If we stick with this method, how to use RegExp to remove the special 
characters in the output.

Thanks.

Great.  Thanks Charlie.  One thing, I don't get it about RegExp in this case

[:space:] ?

Re: (ot) Detect OS and CPU Architecture

2009-09-26 Thread Don L

Barney, thank you for your input.

I ran CGI.HTTP_USER_AGENT (cf) for it.
Here's what I got.

With Firefox 3.5 I get:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 
Firefox/3.5.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) 

With IE7 I get:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; 
Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30618) 

hmm, I can't seem to see anything that could be translated into cpu arch.  What 
else could we try?




Well, windows only runs on Intel, and it states 32/64 bit in the user  
agent.  Linux usually has an architecture in the user agent.  OSX is a  
wildcard, but universal binaries make it no big deal if it's PPC or  
Intel.

But to answer your question, JS is unable to determine it, and more to  
the point, unable to do anything architecture-specific anyway.

cheers,

Re: (ot) Detect OS and CPU Architecture

2009-09-26 Thread Don L

You are a disgusting and despicable being and your rigidness is beyond words.

The question was to detect a user's OS and its CPU architecture not the 
server's.  Do you know how my app is run???  Got it now?  f off!  Told you a 
100 times! f off! I'll hunt you down one day, you fker!

 Common sense would dictate that you just maybe want to get this info 
 from a system that actually runs in the os and not a client-side 
 solution.
 
 Ok so what runs on pretty much every OS and integrates with 
 coldfusion?
 
 Well hopefully even you can figure it out but here is the variables 
 you'd used:
 
 os.nameThe name of OS name
 os.archThe OS architecture
 os.version The version of OS

(ot) Detect OS and CPU Architecture

2009-09-25 Thread Don L

Hi,

Preferably do it with javascript.
Did a bit of digging myself, neither navigator.userAgent nor 
navigator.appVersion command would suffice for the CPU part.  Hmm, is 
javascript simply unable to or I simply don't know better?

As always many thanks.

Search emails dynamically from a cf8 app

2009-09-13 Thread Don L

I'm thinking about providing an ability to search all emails for a user (from 
his/her pop3 server) while performing a search for some texts from the current 
app/ current database.

Yes, understand the cfpop tag would allow one to connect to a pop3 server and 
retrieve emails dynamically.  But say, an average user's inbox would have ~800 
emails.  I'm not sure how efficient this approach of pulling out ~800 or more 
emails and then run a query against it.  Am thinking loud here, how about Event 
Gateway (have never used it though)?  Wouldn't it be a more direct hence more 
efficient approach?
app - connector -- event gateway setup and process (search against the 
entire inbox for the user for a keyword/phrase) -- pass results back to app ?
is it something like that?

Thanks for your time.

...

 No, an event gateway wouldn't be any more direct. It would, in fact,
 be less direct - instead of CF talking to the mail server, something
 else would have to talk to the mail server.
 
 I don't think that searching POP mailboxes from CF is an especially
 good idea. If possible, I would fetch mail from the mailboxes
 periodically, and index that using Verity (or Solr or whatever). Or
 better yet, ditch the POP mailboxes entirely and switch to Google
 Apps, which is in my opinion better in almost all respects to hosting
 your own mailserver or using an ISPs server or whatever. Of course,
 being a Google Apps reseller/implementer/trainer I may be slightly
 biased. Google mail is easily searched, as you can imagine, and I
 think it would be pretty easy to get CF to provide an interface for
 that search if you want it.

Thank you for your thoughts, Dave.  I wouldn't have control of user's mail 
service, be it pop3 server for client (Outlook) or else.

Re: url-write and global error handling

2009-09-05 Thread Don L

I've REPEATEDLY asked this scumbag, to f off! Were the being born of a human 
mother it would know what to do.  List manager and everyone else, my apologies 
for the fact that this note has to be public.  The scumbag's intention is 
obviously evil, that is, to try to make me look bad by twisting facts and what 
not.

 He did ask this on the railo list, and then got his ass handed to him 
 again
 
 Einstein's ? isn't about url rewriting at all which I told him before 
 but since we all know how well he listens, I guess when you get 
 stomped on so many times this happens.
 
 His ? is how to change/hide the railo admin url location so the public 
 can't get to it. The only part of this that's url re-wrting is that's 
 what people suggest to do to hide the admin. 
 
 If I was him I would probably want to hide the admin as well since his 
 password is probably either duck duck or goose.
 
 1) disable url-write across board for Resin web server
 Why on frickin gods green earth would this be a good idea?
 Again what you are asking for REQUIRES URL RE-WRITING you twit
 
 2) global error handling
 Well it works for the rest of us, maybe you just don't know wtf you 
 are doing.

url-write and global error handling

2009-09-04 Thread Don L

A couple of things that I'd like to do with local deployment of my web app 
using an open source cfml engine.  FYI, I ran some quick search, unsatisfactory.

1) disable url-write across board for Resin web server
Know exactly how, not looking for something/block on a similar web server

The following code seems to touch on security, a quesion is when then how 
exactly to use this guy to disable admin access other than 127.0.0.1 across 
board?
And a related question, why this option?  vs at web root level, set something 
like if !(#CGI.script# contain 127.0.0.1) cfabort ?  for an application file 
(cfc or cfm)
// pls ignore my spelling and exact syntax 

resin:Allow url-pattern=/admin/*
  xmlns:resin=urn:java:com.caucho.resin
   resin:IfCron
 enable-at* 8 * * *
 disable-at* 16 * * *
   /resin:IfCron
 /resin:Allow


2) global error handling
in the Adobe coldfusion world, a global error handling template,
called at application level would capture any/all errors if they occur.  adobe 
cf handles three types (request, exception and ? forgot one)
However, it has not been my experience with open source cfml engine, that is, 
identical error handling mechanism(only one type, exception if memory serves), 
the app would randomly or sometimes complained
about bla bla file not found despite correct configuration of everything I 
think, directory mapping, customtags mapping etc. this sort of problem is real 
bad for new users, I'm sorry if I'm wrong, loose code, yes, but I would think 
only spotty not across board, and an app shouldn't pay such penality.

Thanks for your time.

Re: Cookie and Browser

2009-09-03 Thread Don L

Just to make your head spin-- there is one annoying little caveat to
this.  Cookies sent to a Flash request in IE will be sent by Flash in FF
because the Flash VM shares the same memory space for cookies between
browsers.  This doesn't bode very well if you need to have a Flash
object make a request to a page secured by a login using cookies for
authentication in any browser other than IE.

There's a full js API to the YouTube player. Ideally, you'd hook into that,
listen for a FinishedPlaying event and then do as you wish.

It's a kludge, but if you know how long the video is, then remove the
controls and have it start as the page opens. Use a meta redirect to
redirect the page after so many seconds.

sorry not an option, the control has to be there, for one thing, for the 
existing users...

detecting the end of a youtube video playing. I'd suggest you'd spend more
time figuring out a hack than you would picking up the API.

Yes, Dominic, you're exactly right, I don't want to nor can afford much time 
for it.  yes time.

Re: (ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube

2009-09-01 Thread Don L

 I certainly wouldn't worry about redirecting them at the end of the 
 video.. I have seen the said video and you are better off figuring out 
 how to capture a browser close during the first 10 seconds if you plan 
 on getting any of those people. 

Yes, you're right, the quality of the video has to be up and up then we can 
talk about the next thing/url, hopefully a bunch of intelligent people would 
help me to figure that out...

 +1 @Dominic
 
 I gotta believe that working with a published and documented API is, 
 by definition, the LEAST messy option out there.  If YouTube gives you 
 exactly what you need to get to where you want to be with a few lines 
 of JS, I would recommend doing that! 

The word,mess is loose on my end, key is to get thing done without having to 
spend too much time unless I want to that API programmer type but no.

Re: ajax cfc not working for Access DB -- odd stuff

2009-08-20 Thread Don L

If the cfc is being hit, and with the right data, you can absolutely rule
out the cfajaxproxy tag. Can we clarify that the data being returned from
the method is the problem? Try posting a form directly to the cfc method,
e.g.

form method=post action=pathtocfc.cfc?method=fubar!--- I think that's
right, have never done it ---
!--- your fields, etc ---
/form

From there, debugging should be more straight forward.

Dominic

Forgot, I could simply use 
pathtocfc.cfc?method=fubarparam1=727param2='blablaText'
from URL to test it and did, it only returned these structures but action 
outcome.  But I've spent over 1.4 hours on it, there's another option, opted 
out... thanks though.

ajax cfc not working for Access DB -- odd stuff

2009-08-19 Thread Don L

I've moved on to an open source cfml engine, don't know what caused the 
following odd behavior, that is, my cfajaxproxy tag no longer works for an 
inline data editing function (meaning, it does not do database update for a set 
of data) while the same code works for ms sql server 2005 express (db syntax 
are exactly same for such a simple query) and since I'm using sync mode I 
can't use the setCallbackHandler method to do debugging.  Thought, could use 
more heads here... 

caller line
cfajaxproxy cfc=myCFC4inlineEdit jsclassname=UpdateObj2 /

cfc code and js code below,

cfcomponent output=false
cfset THIS.dsn=myDS

cffunction name=doUpdate access=remote

   cfset someid = arguments.#i#

cfif not isdefined(arguments.userID)
   cfset arguments.someID = 'dummyID728932'

/cffunction
/cfcomponent


// much credit goes to Sam Farmer for getting me started on this (JSON) approach
function callUpdateJS2(frm,row) {
rowUpdate(frm,row);
}

function handleResult(r) {
 console.log(r);
}

function rowUpdate(frm,row){
// var d = new DraftObj();
var d = new UpdateObj2();
d.setSyncMode(true);
d.setForm(frm);
d.setHTTPMethod('POST'); 
  // d.doUpdate();

// expect  d.doUpdate() to return failed or success string
// BUT it doesn't!
 
// update {notes} field; 05/28/2008
document.getElementById(row).innerHTML = d.doUpdate();
}


Forgive me about the formatting and typo if any.

Re: ajax cfc not working for Access DB -- odd stuff

2009-08-19 Thread Don L

 I've moved on to an open source cfml engine
Don't ever do that.

But seriously. First step of debugging ajax: install Firebug for Firefox if
you haven't already. Next, enable all the firebug console options for your
page and while viewing the console tab you should see your http post request
made by your proxy js object (when you fire that event). You will then be
able to examine the the data sent to your cfc and also the response.

If there is no http request sent then the problem may well be with the
cfajaxproxy code - if a request *is* sent, then we can safely move on from
the client side code.

With any luck, examining the http response will tell you exactly what's
going wrong and will be a cf / railo error page.

HTH

Dominic

Sorry, Dominic, I wasn't clear about the browser, the inline editing feature is 
IE specific, that is, Firefox has a hell time with it, hence, it's IE only, 
yes, I like Firefox's firebug and find it very helpful but not for this case.  
I have firebug lite set up for the IE7, but it didn't show http call etc. from 
cfajaxproxy as in FF/FB... more thoughts? thanks.

Very ODD.

The line of cfreturn #result# in the cfc should have been 
cfreturn true since we don't need data back from the cfc.

and was previously cfreturn true.  I've enabled the feature in FF.

case A, cfreturn true
ajax http post succeeds, RESPONSE: the {data} instead of TRUE ?

case B, in the cfc, cfset result=fielda, #fa#; fieldb, #fb#; memofield,#mf#
cfreturn #result#
(just for the heck of it),
ajax http post succeeds, RESPONSE: just the #mf# instead of fielda, #fa#; 
fieldb, #fb#; memofield,#mf# ?


FYI, the computer is totally offline and wireless device driver was turned off 
as well.

Re: (ot) How to call a .cfm page from a MS SQL Server trigger or stored procedure

2009-08-15 Thread Don L

Sound like what needs to be done can't be done or very inconvenient to be done 
at db end hence you need to run some cfm page from db end.

Not sure if it's efficient, doable though.  call sp_shellcmd, (look it up for 
sp for shell command), have some utility like wget, then, wget http://yourURL; 
something.

 I've done a ton of Googling, (is that a word??) and so far I can't 
 find 
 the answer, so I figured I'd ask here.
 
 I've got a trigger that runs when certain tables are updated, which 
 updates some other tables, but I'd like it to call a .cfm page (either 
 
 on the database box or a different box) that does some other tasks.
 Is this possible?
 
 Specifics:
 DB Server: MS SQL Server 2005
 OS: Windows 2003
 
 Thanks!

Re: (ot) sql server 2005 express sp3 installation onto vista os

2009-08-12 Thread Don L

 Actually, I run SQL 2005 Express on my Vista box at home for dev work, 
 and it's actually been fine.  SQL Express has its own problems (what 
 do you mean I can't move data with it??), but that's not a Vista issue. 
Could you look up Windows Installer version from registry on your Vista box for 
me?
Probably here are places to start,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components

Also, what edition of your Vista os?

Thanks.

Looks like it's still Vista SP1, Home Premium Edition.

No clue what version of the Installer is in place.  There are no entries 
in those keys that are specific to the installer itself, at least not on 
my OS.

Good to know, thanks.  Those two registry branches are pretty standard for XP 
probably Vista is a quite different beast, could you run a key word search 
for Windows Installer at the computer level across all registries with 
regedit for me?  Would greatly appreciate it.

Re: (ot) sql server 2005 express sp3 installation onto vista os

2009-08-12 Thread Don L

FYI,
a) Project deadline is days away.  One should probably not to change horse 
while crossing a river (of course another could argue should you really need 
to cross the river?)
b) The randomly reported error may not accurately reflect sql server 2005 
express sp3 installation success or failure with Vista.  Too bad MS is not very 
accurate on this, only a small number of users has this (installation) 
problem, also, in rare situation it would crash a user's computer, shameful.
c) I have another option.
d) Converting the app from cf8 to railo has already caused me quite a bit of 
pain
not because railo has some real issue but because of misunderstanding or 
difference in expectation.  Would like to avoid this especially now.
e) I leave the option open to move away from MS DBMS but right now timing is 
way too bad.  But if MS is on my back then hell I would be forced to take 
action.  Then who the heck am I?  Kidding myself!
f) Intend to publish the db schema (or most of them) in case other cfers would 
like to extend the app.  But definitely not now.

Out of curiosity, after all  the problems you have had with MSSQL Express
and all the alternatives that have been offered. Are you going to continue
to use MSSQL Express? Or will you try using one of the alternatives?
Best Regards.

Could use some inputs

2009-08-05 Thread Don L

Here's a situation I hope you could provide some thoughtful input.  I've 
converted a cf8-based app into an open source one.  Initially it seemed all's 
well but lately, right when I'm ready to deploy it (not to be hosted like many 
do), some core functionality like automatically data saving, normal data saving 
are no longer reliable, let me explain.  I have a form for data entry with 
multiple fields.  Function 1: auto save the data elements at an interval, 
thanks again Sam.  This feature does not seem to be consistently reliably on 
the new platform but this function is less critical.  Function 2: manually save 
the form, this one now is a MAJOR PROBLEM! the form data is saved/updated all 
right, BUT it deleted 2 or 3 most recent rows of the data table (all with data 
of required columns)!  The query does not delete anything.  Would other scripts 
delete them?  No, here's why.  Here's the basic structure of this table:
id -- title -- content
27 -- 'agri' -- 'one phase of humanity'
28 -- 'indu' -- 'mass production'
-- newest entry
29 -- 'new here' -- 'bla bla'
-- where id is of identity (1,1) not null
Upon clicking on save, rows of id(27 and 28) would be mysteriously gone.  I've 
checked the table does not have any triggers whatsoever, and the machine is 
totally offline.

On some other instances, the newest value and id would replace the second 
newest one,
like upon SAVE, the above would read
27 -- 'agri' -- 'one phase of humanity'
-- newest entry
28 -- 'new here' -- 'bla bla'

Also, please note there's only ONE user.

If it's coding problem, somewhere there's some code like
DELETE from theTABLE where Len(title)  0
or something like that
but there's absolutely not code across board like that, 
absolutely not.  So, how did they disappear?

FYI, I've also provided the open source company a copy of compiled code set (to 
them it's no different from source code) upon their request in hope of 
obtaining an flexible installer of their engine, which didn't happen.  Also, I 
don't mind paying 400 or 500 bucks for service of making my app deployable but 
unlike the online web apps I don't need a full year service... but please do 
not read too much into this...
I'm just laying out facts.

Also, I've been using the app for over a year without any of the above 
mentioned problem.  Now, it's extremely unlikely for cf coding issue regarding 
to this problem, so, who has the motivation and capability to cause this 
problem?
I'm at wits end if any...

Re: Could use some inputs

Don,

You are giving us the wrong information here.  What you should post is the
code in question and a description of the former environment (cf8 + what?
MSSQL?) and the new environment.

-mark


Mark, the converted app uses a cfml engine, sql2005express and Ext (2) for UI, 
I've tested the converted app in late July, all working, so, recent hiccups 
struck me as very odd. The query in question did not use cfqueryParam... 
across board for all sql statements, once took the extra care and another minor 
thing, it functions as expected, in this sense, the hiccup isn't really a bad 
thing.

CF app control

2009-07-21 Thread Don L

Hi,

For a cf8 or equivalent app, what options do we have for its control in Windows 
environment?  Here control is meant to be more like setting app trial 
expiration control, continued use control etc.  A cf8 trial edition would 
revert to developer edition in 30 days, probably the mechanism for that is via 
registry.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.  Also, I'm not a traditional programming 
language guy, so, java or c type is out of my league but would be ok with DOS 
and the like.
Cookie is not really secure and is easily deleted by accident or other events. 
Your thoughts?

Thanks.

 Something simple like a CFREGIETRY key that stores first start time, 
 and a 
 check that that is not too long ago you mean ?
 
 At the end of the day the only thing that will really work is 'phoning 
 home' 
 to your own servers to see if it's allowed to start up. And you can 
 imagine 
 the failure modes of that, and how happy it will leave your customers.

Re: SSOT: open source software

2009-07-20 Thread Don L

To me some service contract like delivery of a fix of 8 days is too long.
Probably I'll talk to the OSS's owner to negotiate a deal something later

You know what, I strongly believe, any OSS documentation at a reasonable price, 
say, $200 or even a bit higher, would sell like hot cake, because everyone 
using/developing it would need it.  But this option does not seem to be there 
already.  And I don't think charging too much at initial/beta stage of a 
product would help it much...

Also, I don't want to name names in case the note is misconstrued and that 
would not do them a service.

Re: Help on ColdExt

2009-07-20 Thread Don L

I may not be the best person to offer you advice on this.  But it's been my 
experience to go directly with Ext itself.  Some caveat though.  In the Ext 
world, CSS is critical for many of its classes including Window.

It's my understanding, in essence, Ext 2 would use the three parts of:
a) CSS
b) its js code/class and its methods for control etc.
c) to affect which part of DOM (HTML element)

 Guys...
 Can any one guide me where I can get help on ColdExt
 Actually I want to put some text (not form control) inside my 
 FormPanel ... like instructions about filling the form... but I m not 
 able to find a way...
 can anyone guide me on this one?

Arsalan

SSOT: open source software

2009-07-19 Thread Don L

Particularly related to ColdFusion.  I understand open source software is not 
free software.  So, to get everything working one has to pay something if 
he/she does not have the time or expertise to dig everything... and that seems 
fair, but if someone is asking about thousand or thousands of dollars upfront, 
I don't think that's a productive way of moving forward...  Also, you may hear 
something like this, this key person is on vacation and will be back in like 
two weeks or you need patience, in the business world, every day counts (you 
snooze you lose).  This ranting is for the benefit of whose who are considering 
switch from Adobe ColdFusion to other options.  I'm not suggesting not to make 
the switch but think twice or better talk to the key person of the product you 
intend to switch to and possibly strike a deal or at least obtain his/her 
support first otherwise your conversion/switch would be at the mercy of others.

Cutter, I wish it's that simple.  A cfwindow is unusually involved, I've tried 
to re-engineer it within Ext environment, yes, legal not stealing Adobe 
stuff, with limited success.  Thought it might be more productive, just to pay 
someone who's way ahead of me in this respect.

 Create a cfwindow, view the source code, nail down the path to Adobe's

Re: railo and Ext

2009-07-08 Thread Don L

I was actually kidding. But as for me, no, I use Adobe ColdFusion
exclusively. 

I actually had a bunch of apps that made extensive use of Ext,
well, I had some trouble getting complete data for auto suggest back from Ext 
2.x with railo and I think the issue does not seem to be on railo end, someone 
at the Ext
forum suggested a tiny bug and he/she seemed more interested in hiring it as a 
consultant but I'd prefer to get this little thing done and move on.  I 
consider the business case is pretty basic, may I enlist some help just for 
this?  

No, I'm considering jQuery at this point for I'm getting to know Ext a little 
bit and its window class for cutomization is mostly working for me already.

Thanks.

but have recently migrated them all to jQuery which I now also use
exclusively.

Re: railo and Ext

2009-07-08 Thread Don L

well well, I love coldfusion, all versions from the very first one Allare days 
on... it's that just I don't have the luxury to bundle cf8 with my little app, 
hence, going other route... it's kind of like a way out of no way or tough way 
... btw, it's only a few hiccups left now ... thanks for the heads-up though.

You know we've updated all the CF9 controls to Ext 3.0+ which integrates
really well with jQuery. Since we have a commercial agreement with Ext, you
can use the Ext libraries anyway you like without having to purchase
anything else. CFBuilder will have code insight for Ext, JQuery and other
JavaScript frameworks too.

(ot) quick Ext question

Sorry for the ot but this is a quick one.

How to use the bodyStyle attribute for Window object?

// Ext 2

var ewin = new Ext.Window ({
  // x:200,
  // y:200,
  width:350,
  height:350,
  border:true,
  resizable:true, 
  // try 1
  // bodyStyle: [{background-color:white; color:black; padding-left:10px}]

  // try 2
  // bodyStyle: [{background-color:'white', color:'black', padding-left:10px}]

  });

// results
neither try 1 nor try 2 worked in IE7 nor Firefox 3.0.11 on XP SP3.

How to?

Also, when I include the x and y attributes, the window failed to be opened, 
weird.

Thanks.

You're right.
items: [{bodyStyle: background-color:white; color:black; padding-left:10px}]
works.  But the window's border did not show up though the attribute is 
specified.

Yeah, I'll try the ext forum.

Many thanks.

Not sure, the ExtJs forums are probably your best bet on this. Try:

bodyStyle:'background-color:white;color:black;padding-left:10px;'

2009-06-25 Thread Don L

http://www.lalabird.com/?fa=JSMX.downloads

scroll down the page to you see JSMXsuggest Example 

I really like JSMX very easy to use

Andrew.

I tried it.  IE7 did not returned suggested data, Firefox 3.011 did not 
generate error, the error console says, results undefined with the 
JSMXsuggest.js. 
 
additional info:
a) the two js files are correctly placed and referenced;
b) the cfc file was changed to reflect my test case with one cffunction of type 
remote, a normal query instead of QoQ, and is located in the same directory as 
the caller cfm file and I also placed it as the root level just in case...;
c) i left the JSMXsuggest.js intact since I'm using the same name for the cfc 
file
that is,
var URL = 'JSMXsuggest.cfc?method=';
remains the same
d) i tested the query by itself, ok
e) i even use static ds
f) for the returned data at the function, I've alternatively tried both of the 
following 
cfoutput[#result#]/cfoutput 
XOR 
cfwddx action=cfml2js input=#listToArray(result,'%')# toplevelvariable=r


I'm puzzled, looks like I didn't do c) right.

Thanks.

Re: autosuggest - other than cf8 solution

2009-06-25 Thread Don L

This made me to think of examing a bunch of the returned data sets, and there 
we go, some row has some single quotes.  Resolved.  Thank you very much.  And 
it could also mean why it didn't work for me with Peter's option with clear 
instruction but the two js files are too big.

Sounds like maybe your JSON is not valid.  You can check it at
http://www.jsonlint.com.  If it checks out as valid, then start to look
elsewhere.

Re: Open source ColdFusion again

2009-06-25 Thread Don L

I heard you, Ray, if anyone can afford cf8 for his/her work like distributing 
his/here ware or is lucky enough to have a fat gig with the gov or something 
like that, by all means, they don't have to go the open source cfml engine and 
ajax route and then have to pull their hair out at some point to dive into the 
on-and-off js world like me.  To be honest, I truly like cf8's ajax tags and 
functions, and I would say tags like the famed cfajaxproxy is awesome but in 
the mean time, don't mean to be rude, some of them is indeed bloated and you've 
offered rationale for that.  Imho, Adobe Coldfusion8 has its market and so 
would the other guys too.

Best to everyone.

Just to chime in here in regards to the 'slow'/'bloatedness' of CF8's
AJAX stuff...

a) Don't forget that JS is still very hard for a lot of people. The
built in Ajax-based UI tags are simple as heck to use. For a lot of
people these tools are the _only_ way they are going to do even
remotely Ajax-y.

b) Don't forget that Ajax support in CF isn't just about UI. Native
JSON support, returnFormat, are killer improvements. I bring this up
because a lot of people will just poopoo CF8 Ajax in general without
making the distinction.

ColdExt question

2009-06-24 Thread Don L

ok, I've installed ColdExt yesterday after installing railo 3.1x.  Initially 
ColdExt's window tag seemed to work but then, it cracked through a hole

traditional coldfusion talk.

Re: ColdExt question

2009-06-24 Thread Don L

I have seen this issue with FarCry on Railo.  They have the method
name the same an an inbuilt railo method ( dump, query )

As Railo looks like its has its own trueFalseFormat function I would
try just delete that method out of _functions.cfm and see how well the
inbuilt Railo method works.

ColdExt: window again

2009-06-24 Thread Don L

I'm wondering if the ext window has an attribute to allow vertical scroll.  By 
default cf8's cfwindow is intelligent enough to automatically make vertical 
scroll bar available where the window is filled but I didn't find the same 
ability with the ext window.  It's nice though it also has an attribut of 
closable. 

Thanks.

 The Ext window does (autoScroll: true), but I'm not sure whether

Re: Open source ColdFusion again

2009-06-23 Thread Don L

To whet your appetite, here is some custom js using jquery that will take
any link with a class of modal-flyout and open a modal flyout with either
the contents of the remote href (ajax) or the div that it points to:

script type=text/javascript
 $('.modal-flyout').boxy();
/script

A markup example:

a href=http://myserver.com/flyoutpage/; title=Title for the modal box
class=modal-flyoutSome link/a


Example two:

a href=#someDiv title=Title for the modal box class=modal-flyoutSome
link/a
div id=someDiv
 Content in here appears in flyout.
/div

For me, this makes cfwindow utterly redundant.

Dominic

Cool.  very clear, calling a class and one of its methods, and interestingly, 
here, a method can be a plug-in.  Also, I'll think about systematic approach 
vs. piece meal.  Bring it on, people!

Re: Open source ColdFusion again

2009-06-23 Thread Don L

 I don't understand what the question here is.
 
 As Barney suggests, openBD with GPL covers copyleft, Railo with LGPL 
 covers bundling.
 There's no need or benefit to a full permissive BSD/MIT licensed 
 engine.
 
 Don, if you want CFML-based AJAX functionality, and your engine of 
 choice doesn't currently support it, then help them to develop it!
 (Or just learn jQuery and stop worrying about the rest.) 

Peter, thank you for your valuable thought.  I seem to see a clearer picture, 
and will need to bug people like you onto this path... Don

first of all, I hope it's ok to post general cfml engine related question.

just downloaded the railo 3.1 executable but have no idea how to get started, 
its own doc points to its wiki site, which does not seem to have a 'right' doc 
for getting started with it, but some of you here would know how railo 3.1 
works, hence, this question here.
 
installation process says successful installation.  check windows (XP SP3) 
services and found railo 3.1 server is also up and running.  however,  tests:
a) http://localhost:8080/index.cfm (the file comes with the package)
b) http://localhost:8080/test.cfm (file I created and placed in the 
\webapps\ROOT directory
b) http://localhost:8080/test.htm (similar to b)
 
All gets Page cannot be displayed error, browser = IE6.
 
Do I have to do some config before using railo? 
 
tia.

railto getting started 2 (Windows OS)

For clarity and the benefit of future railo users, I'm going to start a new 
thread here.  For future railo server (not express) users, the port is 8600.

The second batch of railto server 3.1x questions:
data source configuration
server configuration
installation options

a) the config file seems to indicate that one can't make rail server as an 
automatical started NT service, if it's true it's inconvenient to check | start 
the service every time when my app relying on railto runs.  on resource 
utility, understood but inconveniece.

b) how to set up data source, e.g. sql server 2005 express?
the resin.conf file seems to have entry with reference to mysql database 
driver, 
how do we go about it exactly for various db platforms?

c) railto server installation options.  I'm under the impression, it can 
installed silently as well, yes?

Thank you.

After digging a bit more, I'm now becoming concerned about its way of using a

not seem to be there (maybe I'm wrong), here's part of its documentation.
Using the Database
Connection con = _ds.getConnection();
try (...) finally 
(con.close();)

I'm not looking into getting into that world.  People?  Thanks.

Browse to

And you get the CFadmin your used to where you cna setup Datasources and

 There's some info on the Railo blog here:
 http://www.railo.ch/blog/index.
 cfm/2006/12/19/New-features-introduced-with-Railo
 
 And a few examples have been posted on the Google mailing list - try 
 searching there for cfadmin or similar. 

Thanks, Peter.  This is a not a high priority item, but I wanted to know if 
it's doable, good to know yes.  Wow, Justin did good work with the ColdExt as 
well, easily configured, I'm checking it out further...

Some quick questions on Rail, what's its equivalent for cfajaxlink and 
cfajaxproxy respectively?  Better, is there any railto cfml engine / language 
reference doc like the one for cf8 or bd?  That's going to be very helpful.

Many thanks.

Don

oh, forget about the question about railto doc, I've found it.  But the railo 
wiki stated that it supports cfajaxproxy, however, my version of railto 
3.1.0.015 complained: tag AjaxProxy is not supported, how come?  I thought 
this is the latest version.  I've tried both cfc=myCFC.cfc and 
cfc=components.myCFC.cfc.  Also, the err msg does not seem to suggest a use 
error but rather the package's supported capability.  Thanks.  Don

OS = Windows OS.

ok, we're getting to the nitty, gritty part of railo v3.1x.
its wiki doc states its support of CFINPUT 's autosuggest attribute, however, 
it fails me.  Thanks.

Don
P.S. Sorry for asking so many railo questions in such a short time span.

Re: railto getting started 2 (Windows OS)

  the railo wiki stated that it supports cfajaxproxy, however, my 
  version of railto 3.1.0.015 complained: tag AjaxProxy is not 
  supported, how come?
 
 The cfajaxproxy tag is not yet implemented. 
 Andrea Campolonghi and others are working on it, and if you join the 
 Google group you'll see the discussions about it there, along with 
 some information about how you can help test what they've got so far.
 
 The problem with the wiki is that there is actually a cfajaxproxy 
 placeholder tag (which gives the not supported message), and because 
 the wiki is auto-generated, it is currently incorrectly marking it as 
 implemented due to the presence of the placeholder tag.
 
 The wiki generator will be fixed, and also the plan is to go over all 
 the documentation with a fine comb and make sure contradictions like 
 these do not exist - again, details are on the Google group for this, 
 for anyone who would like to help. 

Thanks, Peter, who's the google group's moderater and his/her email address?

Which one of these freebie cfml has basic cf engine + native ajax support 
like cfajaxproxy for instance.  Or, put it this way, I think the need for a 
freebie cfml engine + cool latest ajax functions are of substantial value, 
but probably the way it is now, is freebie cfml engines like BD, may not have 
native ajax functions like what cf8 has.  Rolling up one's sleeve is one 
option, need for it may be many, mostly probably small-medium sized companies 
(SMEs), how about this?  What if a bunch of people/SMEs chip in to pay some top 
notch jquery programmer with heavy cf to develop some sort of plug-in, that the 
'investors' could have for free and sell it to anyone who needs it for a very 
reasonable fee?  Am thinking loud here...

@ Barney Boisvert, it's just the semantics.

There is nothing making me feel all warm and fuzzy about this tag to begin
with.

cfajaxproxy
http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=Tags_a-b_3.html

Still requires a load of work unless

cfajaxproxy cfc=components.emp jsclassname=emp

is actually witting all of that header code for you.

ok.  so, probably you were referring to the BD's new tag of cfajaxproxy 
(probably it's been there for a while, I don't know), just took a look at the 
release notes etc. looking very promising to my need, and thanks for the 
syntax, good to know.  With cf8, we need to use cfajaximport, I don't see this 
tag in fBD, also, cfwindow, cfdiv, bla bla, sorry I'm greedy... and jetty is 
cool too.  Thanks.

Don,

Just use straight Ext Js on one of these engines, rather than relying on 
the cfform tags. Or, try ColdExt.

Thank you, Cutter, of Railo 3.0.1 or OpenBD 1.1, for my need of basic cfml + 
quite heavy ajax functions rolled out by cf8, which one would you recommend to 
try first?
BD seems to be around for longer time, also, easier for code change (currently 
it's cf8 app).   Don

Re: Open source ColdFusion again

2009-06-22 Thread Don L

Dominic,

I've read your posts and am very impressed and yes, technically the current 
architecture of the various open source cfml engines are probably most 
desirable - I'm not exactly in a position to draw a conclusion but just a sort 
of guess, here what I was talking off my head was, from business perspective I 
want to get this thing done or converted quickly.  One option is, hop around 
for a very desirable technical solution or get it done quickly still as a good 
solution but more focus on the feature and/or design, and besides, I don't have 
the luxury as some big company.
btw, I need to distribute my app and run locally.

 I disagree and don't believe that the open source cfml languages need
 to offer wrappers for javascript libraries. Trying to keep up, and
 offer wrappers for these libraries only limits the programmer - the
 scattered js offerings of CF8 compared to the scope and depth of
 what's on offer from the js community is a testament to that.
 
 I feel that os frameworks wrapping other os frameworks is counter
 intuitive. Side by side they are free to grow and to do their job
 brilliantly.

I feel the need to add an additional bit.  I bought a cf8 standard myself a 
while ago. No one is arguing nor expecting a substantial free software, what I 
threw out was about affordability, and especially for the SMEs, and some of 
them may need to bundle their app for distritution, and I'm not talking about 
Air.
