Yikes, including Application.cfm in both onRequest() and
onApplicationStart() is very unlikely to work the way you expect...

Where are your  settings in the
pseudo-constructor? You *must* have those in order to give your
application a name etc.  does not work inside
Application.cfc because the values need to be set before any methods
are called.



Read the migration docs in the manual - they go into great detail
about how to convert from Application.cfm to Application.cfc.

No, if you want page-local variables to be accessible in the requested
page, you *must* use onRequest().

If you do not use onRequest(), variables set in onRequestStart() are
accessible in onRequestEnd() but not in the main page you requested.

As soon as you use onRequest(), all three methods share the same
variables scope and onRequest() s the requested page.

However, you cannot use onRequest() in an Application.cfc that
controls CFCs that are accessed as Web Services, via Flash Remoting or
as Event Gateways. Read the documentation for more details on that.

Don't ever let it be said that we don't listen to the voices of our
clients. :-) We've implemented a fix for this security issue that
spans all of our Linux servers running ColdFusion. Here's a synopsis
from one of the techs involved in implementing the change:

"We actually run two J2EE environments - JRun and Resin. While JRun
does handle the Java processing for ColdFusion, Resin handles the
requests for JSP pages and servlets.

Java implements a security policy system that can prevent access. We
have implemented security managemetn in the Resin server to prevent JSP
pages from being able to read arbitrary files on the server. We have
restricted code from each customer's home directory to:

1) a lengthy list of files and directories that Java and Resin require
internally
2) log files for the site and for Resin
3) that customer's home directory."

So, security in a shared hosting environment isn't exactly a myth, it
just takes a little more work and flexibility. If anyone needs a more
technical explanation of what we did, please let me know via email
and/or a post here and I'd be happy to assist.

RE: CF vs LAMP

2005-06-02 Thread dave
all the major ones are perfectly capable products, there is no doubt. 

 The thing about php is like you said earlier, their strong point is also what 
hurts them. They have all these plug and play modules and anyone can just plug 
them in and go and they think they are now "programmers" but I'll betcha a good 
chunk of them could write a db call and recordset return if you asked them too. 
Sure the plugins are nice (i used phpbb all the time) but what happens when 
something breaks? can they dig in and fix it? no, probably not. Like right now 
I am doing that with cartweaver, which seamed fairly good until you want to 
customize it (Or clean up the code) while its a plugin at least I can go in and 
fix it while most of these ppl can't.

 I think the problem is that people make their decisions based upon the 
starting price, whereas it should be the ending price.

 I think the argument he should take is exactly that, show them the final price 
and since they are talking perl also show them a average maintenance price, 
they are just getting stuck up on the initial price and that's were most ppl 
give up.

Well, like MySQL, PHP is actually overseen by ZEND, a company created by 2
of the Senior Developers. They choose to help support it and provide extra
utilities to make their money.

I can agree with you that the community has bloated PHP, and even agree that
its a faster development tool. But aside from that, its pretty well neck in

 I guess Simon  is trying to say that if I buy a car and everytime it
breaks down they will send someone to fix it (even from germany) and he
thinks thats a BAD thing? I guess it would be better to take it down to
jimmy joes house and confer with the locals about what to do with it, maybe
google the problem a bit, maybe find a half-assed answer and then try it and
if it gets messed up to bad cause there is really noone to back it up.
Sounds good to me, guess i'm gunna ditch cfm and go with that cause gee it
sure sounds swell wally.

 But his comparison has a point. I know when I have problems with my MM
stuff that I can call my rep and he'll come over and find me a solution
thats actually backed by the company. And who is php backed by again?? oh
yeah "we the people", which sounds nice but "we the people" also are the
ones who send us viruses as well, do you know them? do you trust them? are
they required to tell you the correct thing to do if you have a problem? or
could they be telling something that will corrupt everything you have
already done?

 If you like php thats great but like i said in last post, if you put up cfm
in a fair fight with equal quality coders in php, asp, .net, jsp, perl,
whatever, cfm still gets it done faster and in the end cheaper. And if you
need additional power then you can run java in it and you have all you need,
if you need more power in php whatcha gunna do?

Well how many people on the list here even know anyone that's made changes
to the PHP code (and I mean the core PHP code, the code that makes PHP
tick)?  It might make you feel better that you could change the code if you
wanted to, but how many actually do it?  

I mean theoretically, you could decompile the CF class files, and make
changes to it and compile it back (you'd need a pretty good decompiler
though).  And theoretically you could send those changes to Macromedia for
them to incorporate the bug fixes into their next patch.  Personally, I
think it's easier to decompile ColdFusion and make changes to the java code,
then to try to fix up PHP's C code (assuming PHP is written in C).

fyi~ for those who don't know Jamie is from Hostmysite.com, smarterlinux.com.

 while it was a issue at least it has been resolved and the "other" unnamed

they claimed they were secure and it wouldn't happen there we tried it and it 
did.

 So anyways, thanks Jamie :)

RE: CF vs LAMP

2005-06-02 Thread Russ
This was actually my original question... CF vs LAMP where the P stands for
Perl.  Can somebody provide some examples, please, of CF being better then
Perl for web development.  I mean we can conceivably run our code in Linux,
definitely on Apache, and possibly on MySQL... the only difference becomes
CF vs Perl...

As opposed to the Perl of the day where you needed to be touch the ether
to understand...

In general, bad planning (or no planning at all) can bring about some
truly aweful work, regardless of what technologies you use.

Well, you gotta figure that there are people who *prefer* that approach.  If

you want to keep the hood of your car welded shut, that's fine with me, and 
have fun with your 'Vette.  I'm personally not going to give you grief about

it, because you're probably quite a capable driver.

There are those of us, though, who aren't too sure about the mechanics.
Seems 
like every time we call them out to fix the car, they end up breaking 
something else, then putting in a whole bunch of stuff that I don't want or 
need and that just hinders what I want to do.  Automatic transmission may be

nice, but I know I can maximize my standard transmission to get better 
performance from the car, and I resent the fact that I can't even *get* 
manual transmission.  There's also the fact that I don't really want my car 
reporting back to the manufacturer, making sure I'm driving it properly.

And when I open the hood of my car, I can see exactly what's going on, where

all the parts are, what they're doing to each other, and so on.  If I don't 
want that fancy flywheel that does nothing but sit there looking pretty, I 
can take it out.  If I'm having a problem with a specific component, I can 
open the hood and fix it myself; or I can Google the problem, or contact 
other experts who have better insight into the problem than I do, and I can 
do it for free.  (To be fair, though, you can do the same with your 
sealed-hood 'Vette, so comparing how the two different approaches set up and

maintain support systems and knowledge bases is probably irrelevant.  I 
*could* pay lots more money for a dedicated help system for my 'Vette, but 
why bother when the help I can get for free is just as good?)

And, of course, there are the issues of security.  The 'Vette may have a 
sealed hood, a nice support system, may go fast and have great performance, 
but it does me no good if the lock is broken.  I could keep putting new 
keyholes in the same lock, but I'd prefer the option of opening the lock 
mechanism and fixing it directly.

So I think it's all a matter of philosophy, worldview, and personal 
preference.  You like your shiny 'Vette which you pay good money to
maintain, 
and I prefer my old Dodge which is cheaper and older but seems to perform 
just as well and which I built myself and maintain myself.

Where it breaks down -- and where I personally take offense -- is the point 
where I'm no longer given the choice.  Just as I resent the fact that I 
cannot buy a car with manual transmission, I seriously resent the 
manufacturers who tell me that a sealed hood is my only option.  I don't 
resent those who tell me that a sealed hood is the *better* option (because
I 
tell them that an open hood is the better option), but if I don't even have
a 
choice to invest in a cheaper option that I can maintain myself, then I'm 
going to get mad.

I'll stop this rant short, though, before I get into issues of politics and 
economy.  ;-)

So you moved .jsp processing from JRun to Resin, and then secured 
Resin using Policy Files. Are you still using the Sandboxes 
functionality native to CF to secure CF or are you using Policy 
Files there too?

If you are running an IMAP server like Exchange and CF can talk to that

upload an e-mail to a specific folder in a specific account on the Exchange

that way.

Re: Shared CF Host security

2005-06-02 Thread Jamie Price
Don't ever let it be said that we don't listen to the voices of our clients.  
:-)  We've implemented a fix for this security issue that spans all of our 
Linux servers running ColdFusion.  Here's a synopsis from one of the techs 
involved in implementing the change:

"We actually run two J2EE environments - JRun and Resin.  While JRun does 
handle the Java processing for ColdFusion, Resin handles the requests for JSP 
pages and servlets.

Java implements a security policy system that can prevent access.  We have 
implemented security managemetn in the Resin server to prevent JSP pages from 
being able to read arbitrary files on the server.  We have restricted code from 
each customer's home directory to:

1) a lengthy list of files and directories that Java and Resin require 
internally
2) log files for the site and for Resin
3) that customer's home directory."

So, security in a shared hosting environment isn't exactly a myth, it just 
takes a little more work and flexibility.  If anyone needs a more technical 
explanation of what we did, please let me know via email and/or a post here and 
I'd be happy to assist.

I think part of the mentality is that managers want to "fix" the email

paste it into an AOL email, I then paste it from the company-standard
Outlook into TinyMCE and send it via CFMAIL, and they wonder why it
doesn't look exactly the way they sent it.

As opposed to the Perl of the day where you needed to be touch the ether
to understand...

In general, bad planning (or no planning at all) can bring about some
truly aweful work, regardless of what technologies you use.

RE: Send email in Outlook

2005-06-02 Thread Dawson, Michael
Why does everyone think that email is "the" place to work?  Is there
some sort of workflow that will originate in Outlook or is it just
because people are scared of a browser?

If this content gets into Outlook, but is never forwarded to anyone,
then there is little point in doing it.

Other than that, probably the quickest way is to use CFMAIL.

I just got an interesting request...

Instead of the Email/E-Newsletter management system that I was planning
to build for a client, they've now asked:

(When opening a dynamic CF page with client verification info on it..)

"Can we just click a button to get all the information into Outlook so
we can do whatever we want to it from there?"

Short of some serious programming involving gawd knows what
DOM/tweaks/VB something - I don't think there is really a way to do
that, right?

Hell, just open the CF page, copy and paste?

Sorry to bother you.  I was hoping to expand on Dave's metaphor to explain why 
I have a different viewpoint than he does.  It certainly wasn't my intention

On the whole, though, this is probably a thread that's better off being

Well, you gotta figure that there are people who *prefer* that approach.  If
you want to keep the hood of your car welded shut, that's fine with me, and
have fun with your 'Vette.  I'm personally not going to give you grief about
it, because you're probably quite a capable driver.

There are those of us, though, who aren't too sure about the mechanics.
Seems
like every time we call them out to fix the car, they end up breaking
something else, then putting in a whole bunch of stuff that I don't want or
need and that just hinders what I want to do.  Automatic transmission may be
nice, but I know I can maximize my standard transmission to get better
performance from the car, and I resent the fact that I can't even *get*
manual transmission.  There's also the fact that I don't really want my car
reporting back to the manufacturer, making sure I'm driving it properly.

And when I open the hood of my car, I can see exactly what's going on, where
all the parts are, what they're doing to each other, and so on.  If I don't
want that fancy flywheel that does nothing but sit there looking pretty, I
can take it out.  If I'm having a problem with a specific component, I can
open the hood and fix it myself; or I can Google the problem, or contact
other experts who have better insight into the problem than I do, and I can
do it for free.  (To be fair, though, you can do the same with your
sealed-hood 'Vette, so comparing how the two different approaches set up and
maintain support systems and knowledge bases is probably irrelevant.  I
*could* pay lots more money for a dedicated help system for my 'Vette, but
why bother when the help I can get for free is just as good?)

And, of course, there are the issues of security.  The 'Vette may have a
sealed hood, a nice support system, may go fast and have great performance,
but it does me no good if the lock is broken.  I could keep putting new
keyholes in the same lock, but I'd prefer the option of opening the lock
mechanism and fixing it directly.

So I think it's all a matter of philosophy, worldview, and personal
preference.  You like your shiny 'Vette which you pay good money to
maintain,
and I prefer my old Dodge which is cheaper and older but seems to perform
just as well and which I built myself and maintain myself.

Where it breaks down -- and where I personally take offense -- is the point
where I'm no longer given the choice.  Just as I resent the fact that I
cannot buy a car with manual transmission, I seriously resent the
manufacturers who tell me that a sealed hood is my only option.  I don't
resent those who tell me that a sealed hood is the *better* option (because
I
tell them that an open hood is the better option), but if I don't even have
a
choice to invest in a cheaper option that I can maintain myself, then I'm
going to get mad.

I'll stop this rant short, though, before I get into issues of politics and
economy.  ;-)

>> if you need more power in php whatcha gunna do?
I've literally yet to find anything I couldn't do with stock PHP. If I did,
theres always this... a lovely little API that they embrace you to use when
everything goes south. http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/zend.php

>>And who is php backed by again?? oh yeah "we the people"
Well, like MySQL, PHP is actually overseen by ZEND, a company created by 2
of the Senior Developers. They choose to help support it and provide extra
utilities to make their money.

I can agree with you that the community has bloated PHP, and even agree that
its a faster development tool. But aside from that, its pretty well neck in
neck... and thats good for both languages. Competition breeds innovation.

I'm not so sure that the logic follows.

If you've purchased a new car, it comes with a warranty. 
Solid companies tend to honor their warranties. 
Solid companies would probably try to limit their liability with such a
warranty by delivering a product that mitigated need to honor the warranty
as much as possible by being well built. This will limit their loss
(reduction of profit) from taking care of said issues.

Not only that, they'll take care of it because they are legally obligated
to. The cost not to honor that obligation is probably a bit higher than the
cost to do so.

And aside from all that, for me personally and I suspect a great deal many
others, there's about next to nothing that I can do under the hood of a new
BMW anyway without making matters worse, should it need some attention.

I think this thread is definitely going OT though!

BMW is a solid company.
A solid company will take care of any issues that arise from my product.
Therefore, I will blindly believe in anything that BMW says.
Therefore, if my car breaks down, I will wait for BMW engineers to fly from
Germany in order to fix my car.
Therefore, I'm willing to pay huge amounts of money even if I can fix a very
simple problem.
Therefore, since I will blindly believe in anything that BMW says, I will
believe that it is not BMW's fault if the car breaks down because of faulty
manufacturing.
Therefore, even if there's conclusive evidence of BMW's negligence, I will

RE: CF vs LAMP

2005-06-02 Thread Kevin Aebig
As first a PHP developer to a now CF developer, I partly agree.

PHP's biggest strength is also it's biggest weakness. It grew so fast that
everyone who jumped on board learned how to do alot of things the *wrong*
way. There are too many php resources online and most teach how to do the
quick fix instead of how to properly build applications with PHP.

The other issue is with quick fix, plug and pray apps like PHPBB and
PHPNuke. They have every kid with a 'puter thinking that they know PHP and
it drowns the good developers out of the mix.

Without question, PHP is great in it's own rights, but out of the 100 or so
"PHP developers" I know, I'd only hire 4 of them.

Sincerely,

Kevin

well Micha maybe in your "only enterprise" world you live in what you say
maybe true.
 But once you come outta la-la land it isn't.

 You say more ppl use CFM because it's easy? I completely disagree with
this, I'd say that more people use PHP because it's "free".
 "free" beats out easy any day! In your lil enterprise world I am sure there
are good php coders but I'd say a HUGE and I mean HUGE chuck of the PHP
crowd is pretty clueless to any kind or sort of programming and has 0
programming background. Probably 80% of the don't even have a clue to what
OOP even is or use it.

 One thing I can say about cfm users is that if you see a site in cfm it
usually isn't to bad, I seriously can't say that about php. Here in the
"real world" every dick & harry that thinks they are gunna make a web site
and has no web background at all, chooses php. Most have no concept of
anything other than to use zend tools and dreamweaver, they don't even know
what a doc title is or what compliance is or any kind of presentation
standard. Seems to me at least most cfm'rs have a bit more knowledge and
background.

 Here's an example, completely typical of my competition.
 www.gonzogear1.com

 To me that's your typical LAMP project, granted I don't do enterprise stuff
but this is a majority of what's out there and this is an average example of
what I personally go up against. SO you tell me that the person who did this
has a a background in anything besides bad taste or that they use OOP and
this isn't a BAD example, it's average.
 Just look at the source code, my god, hell only 79 html errors on home page
alone.

 " Most people starting with PHP have at least some theoretical
 and experience about programming."
 Hogwash!!! Most ppl starting with PHP have little or no
background in programming whatsoever, i'd even say most of them don't even
know it's a server-side language!

 To me it still comes down to this, if you take 2 equal programmers who will
deliver the same quality site then you are on equal grounds to start.
 Then it comes down to cost. Say I charge $100 hour (about average here)
that would mean if I could finish a project 12 hours faster than the guy
using lamp then it would be equal again and if say the project takes the
lamp guy 120 hours to finish and me (cause i am a slacker) 80 hours (because
fact is that less code takes less time which we all agree that cfm is about
2x as fast to program in than php), which is the better deal?

 The LAMP one just cost $12000
 the cfm one (including buying a server license) just cost $9200

 The client just save $2800, it ain't rocket science.

 If you can't sell your sell or what you do, then I would suggest you hire
someone to do it for you. There really isn't any reason why you can't sell a
cfm site as easily as anything else because there is a small price tag on it
isn't a good enough excuse.

very strongly. Then I had them go up to white board and write on

done in less than half the time with smaller readable code."

I have a page that has a DIV tag for CSS usage and a TABLE tag right
after it 
to display text on a page.

The DIV tag has the following style properties:
padding-left: 40px;
padding-top: 35px;
padding-right: 40px;
padding-bottom: 25px;

Basically just to pad it from all sides

Then the TABLE tag has the following properties:

My goal was to pad the table from all side but make the table dynamic
using the WIDTH of
100% attribute.

What is occurring is if the table has rows of data to display, that it
would
stretch the table past the screen resolutions and give no scroll bar at
the bottom.

This is happening in IE with a screen resolution of 1024x800 and even
1152 x 864.

It looks great FireFox...

Send email in Outlook

2005-06-02 Thread Les Mizzell
I just got an interesting request...

Instead of the Email/E-Newsletter management system that I was planning 
to build for a client, they've now asked:

(When opening a dynamic CF page with client verification info on it..)

"Can we just click a button to get all the information into Outlook so 
we can do whatever we want to it from there?"

Short of some serious programming involving gawd knows what 
DOM/tweaks/VB something - I don't think there is really a way to do 
that, right?

Hell, just open the CF page, copy and paste?

Re: ColdFusion Forum software

2005-06-02 Thread Rick Root
Tony,

I had implemented BBML and emoticons in CFMBB (www.cfmbb.org), and had 
intended to implement private messaging too.   However, I've since 
halted development on cfmbb because I worked too hard to seperate 
language and locale from the code itself, and therefore the code is the 
ugliest code I've ever written.  Plus I simply don't have time to do the 
work on it, and I was more interested in writing a blog software 
(blogcfm) which was much easier =)

CF / CSS / IE

2005-06-02 Thread Adkins, Randy
I have a page that has a DIV tag for CSS usage and a TABLE tag right
after it 
to display text on a page.
 
The DIV tag has the following style properties:
padding-left:  40px;
padding-top:  35px;
padding-right:  40px;
padding-bottom:  25px;
 
Basically just to pad it from all sides
 
Then the TABLE tag has the following properties:

 
My goal was to pad the table from all side but make the table dynamic
using the WIDTH of
100% attribute.
 
What is occurring is if the table has rows of data to display, that it
would
stretch the table past the screen resolutions and give no scroll bar at
the bottom.
 
This is happening in IE with a screen resolution of 1024x800 and even
1152 x 864.
 
It looks great FireFox...
 
Thanks!

This is exactly what I said, how am I incorrect?
I said "You need at least a table with one column for item and one for its 
parent."
This is ONE table with TWO columns, the minimum it takes, with this you can 
describe a tree
with unlimited branches to an unlimited number of levels.

No, don't use OnRequest - that will replace the page that was actually
requested. You could use OnRequestStart, or just put them in the
"pseudo-constructor" area I think.

I haven't tried the way you did it yet Kerry.  I did get it to work however.

Claude, you're incorrect on the database structure of a tree.  You can put
it all in one table and recursively get the entire tree.  How else could you
support unlimited parent child relationships?  I have trees that go 20 deep.
I'm definitely not going to have a table for each child.

Thanks for the help.

Sounds like an adjaceny list model.

Does the list contain the whole tree or does a list only contain a path from
one node to another while other lists contain other paths?

First, what's wrong with setting local variables in Application.cfm?

Second, you can just set them in Application.cfc the same way. Just don't
put them in a function, and they'll work just like in Application.cfm.

Does anyone know of an issue when using CFScript and if a function
exceeds the
RequestTimeOut variable set in the Administrator or as part of the URL,
the server
never seems to release it.
 
I do not want to revert back to regular CF tags cause cfscript is a

enhancement for us.

RE: CF vs LAMP

2005-06-02 Thread Kevin Aebig
I definately hear what you're getting at...

I personally prefer to use shell script in scenario's like that. On the
other hand, I do think the best place for perl these days lives in Linux
administration software. Its robust enough to hand alot of delicate parsing
and can easily take a big workload.

For web use though... its a total abomination.

For CGI scripting, Perl has its uses (though I personally haven't used it
for
that purpose in years).  For server-side scripting, though -- like when you
need to go through all 4,000 files in all 600 subdirectories from your
webroot with a specific naming convention and replace the form action tag
with with a new string, the contents of which depend on the name of the
directory just above the current subdirectory if that directory name
contains
a capital letter or a number -- why there ain't nothin' better than Perl.
Pound out a four line script, chmod to executable, execute it with perl -w
script_name.pl, and you're in business.  Assuming you know what the heck
you're doing with those regular expressions.

And yes, that is something I really have faced.  Several times.

Oh, God.  The horror!  The horror!  My eyes are melting!  Aii!!

Re: SMTP Error

2005-06-02 Thread Russell Patterson
Since the servers are behind the firewall, are you using NAT?  If you are 
using private IP addresses, then instead of pointing to the Public IP 
address of the Exchange server, point to the private internal IP address.

Well then, there's certainly something blocking SMTP traffic entirely. I
don't know what to tell you beyond that, as you have said you can
successfully ping the mail server from the web server, so not all traffic is
being blocked. Can you connect to other mail servers via SMTP from your web
server?

help finding thread .net vs cf

2005-06-02 Thread Joshua OConnor-Rose
Not too long ago there was a discussion on this page
that  compares dot net to cf.

I'm trying to help a friend out and I thought there
was a good objective discussion regarding this page.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnaspp/html/coldfusiontoaspnet.asp?frame=true

Does anybody have a link to the thread that I can
point him to for a more objective view.

Thanks in advance

For CGI scripting, Perl has its uses (though I personally haven't used it for 
that purpose in years).  For server-side scripting, though -- like when you 
need to go through all 4,000 files in all 600 subdirectories from your 
webroot with a specific naming convention and replace the form action tag 
with with a new string, the contents of which depend on the name of the 
directory just above the current subdirectory if that directory name contains 
a capital letter or a number -- why there ain't nothin' better than Perl.  
Pound out a four line script, chmod to executable, execute it with perl -w 
script_name.pl, and you're in business.  Assuming you know what the heck 
you're doing with those regular expressions.

And yes, that is something I really have faced.  Several times.

The two cf servers are behind the firewall and so is the exchange
server. The two cf servers are in a different domain, but one server
works and the other doesn't. Make sense?

What was the exact error message you got when you attempted to send via
telnet from the web server? Or were you simply unable to connect at all?
If the latter is the case, then you may have some port blocking or
firewall in between the web server and the mail server.

What was the exact error message you got when you attempted to send via
telnet from the web server? Or were you simply unable to connect at all? If
the latter is the case, then you may have some port blocking or firewall in
between the web server and the mail server.

RE: Install Problems - CF 7 & XP Pro / IIS

2005-06-02 Thread Brad Roberts
I've got two desktops that I can't install it on.  I keep getting "port
51011" is blocked.  I've made exceptions in Win Firewall for every port CF
uses (as listed on Macromedia's website).  I've even disabled the firewall.

This stinks, because it installed fine on our production server, but I can't
get it to work on our dev boxes.

> It wasn't a reason, but a possible rationalisation.

If this is the case, I really don't understand why you bothered. The
inference I drew from your previous posts was that you thought MySQL's
approach to NULL values was just as good as anyone else's, because there are
all sorts of inherent problems with NULL values anyway. I can offer all
sorts of rationalizations about why IE doesn't support CSS as well as I
think it should, but I'm not going to say that it doesn't make any
difference anyway in the same breath.

Yes, it's pretty straightforward, whether the K2 collections are local or
remote. One minor difference is that within K2, database and filesystem
indexes are stored in separate collections, so if you had both within a
single VDK collection, you would now need two K2 collections.

If you plan to run K2 on a separate machine, you might find this useful:

Nofi, but this thread is going off topic because some people are too
blind seeing there is more on the market than CF :) If you don't like
PHP, that's all right, everybody has its own personal affection with a
language, but stating in someway that the developers using PHP are
amateurs is just not true.

In general, I found the average quality of products developed with PHP
much higher than those made with CF. The learning curve of CF due to its
tag based syntax is much lower, and so people with less programming
experience or less know-how about how to approach certain constructions
are starting quickly writing their code in CF. That is the power behind
CF, but it has its side effects regarding quality. The PHP learning
curve is much higher nor is it very attractive to the beginning
developer. Most people starting with PHP have at least some theoretical
and experience about programming.

Ofcourse there are many good CF developers, but there are also a lot of
unexperienced developers, just because they can get started quickly with
programming. How many developers really use cfqueryparam for instance? I
think there are a lot just output the values without review.

This is true code running in production I had to review once (because
there was an error somewhere)

Install Problems - CF 7 & XP Pro / IIS

2005-06-02 Thread Brad Roberts
I never could get the Web Server Configuration Tool to work (after
unblocking ports, etc.), so (per Macromedia) I followed the instructions to
configure it manually (http://www.macromedia.com/go/tn_19575).

Now, IIS is very slow when browsing directories, and CF pages are never
displayed.  As soon as I remove the JRun Connector Filter from the ISAPI
filters, IIS runs normally.

Is there a simple way to install CF 7 on Win XP Pro with IIS?  I've been
frustrated over this for a month!

Thanks,

Brad Roberts

If that code is a condemnation of CF, its a fairly weak one. I've seen crap 
code in CF, JS, Java, ASP,PHP, you name it. I've also seen some very elegant 
code in each of those languages. The point is that how much does the code in 
question cost? For most sites, if the PHP site takes twice or three times as 
long as the same site being done in CF, then whatever you have in the free 
software, you've more than spent on programmers wages. So which site is cheaper 
again?

CFMAIL - HTML and plain text

2005-06-02 Thread Bryan Stevenson
Hey All,

It's been a while since I had to send anything more than plain text with CFMAIL

I tried reading an HTML mail I generated with my mail client set to read as 
plain text only.  For the most part the plain text view of the mail looked fine 
with one exception.  Where lines wrapped, the first line was indented and the 
following lines were not (all the way to left side of window).

Is there any way to control how the plain text will get viewed?  Can I get rid 
of the indent OR the lines wrapping all the way to the left?

TIA

RE: CFMX Clustering / J2EE Session Sharing (configured, but with unexpected side effects)

2005-06-02 Thread jacksonj
Thanks (once again) Dave.

Our Apache admin is out for the day, so I'm trying to interpret your 
instructions myself (but am having a tough time following them). 

-The way I've dealt with this in the past is to set up each CFMX instance
-with its own web server (either the JRun web server or a specific IIS or
-Apache virtual host)

My CFMX sites are all hosted on a single CFMX instance (per machine), but each 
site has its own virtual host entry (e.g., "ENTRY 2," below).

-then added each instance to the cluster,

Since I've got one CFMX instance per machine, my cluster(s) consist(s) of one 
local CFMX instance and one remote CFMX instance. (So, I think I've completed 
this step.)

-then configured the cluster to talk to a specific IIS or Apache virtual host.

This is the part that I'm unsure how to accomplish. Would you mind helping me 
through this part? I've included some snippets from my httpd.conf.

Thanks,
Jamie

Re: get parent items from list?

2005-06-02 Thread Claude Schneegans
 >>What I'm getting is a list of items in their tree hierarchy.

This is just not possible with only a list.
If you just have a list, in which every item is the next item parent, 
then your tree has only one branch.
You need at least a table with one column for item and one for its parent.

Does the list contain the whole tree or does a list only contain a path from
