Re: emailing a cfchart?

[Raymond Camden]

CF10's charting support has both the "old" way and the new hot way, so
you can still do server side charting.

Re: CFScript Book

[Aaron Rouse]

The people I was referring to I am certain do not know how to write
anything or much of anything in JavaScript.  So it is not a matter of
CFScript confusing them into thinking it is JavaScript.

cfscript to many defeats the who point of why they chose cf in the first
place, because it was a html like easy to learn tag based language.
When you go down the route of doing all your code in script, using OOP
style coding, then surely you would just be better off writing directly in
JAVA ?

My main issue with cfscript is that it's easy to confuse at first glance
between that and javascript (for cases when you have JS mixed in with CF
code, as the legacy app I work on at work has).  So, it's not really
cfscript's fault as much as a personal bugaboo.

Re: JQuery .ajax() call posts back to invoking page only on Production

For these sorts of this, I usually will turn on the Developer Tools panel
in Chrome and watch the back/forth communication int he browser via the
"network" tab. you can then click on any request's headers, response, etc.

JQuery .ajax() call posts back to invoking page only on Production

[Brent Shaub]

Hello, thank you for any assistance with this puzzler.

On my local Windows Vista development machine, I'm using CF 9.  Here I have a 
JavaScript call JQuery's $.ajax() method to write some text to a database using 
a web service in a CFC.  On my machine, it works as expected: writes the 
values, screen stays put.

On production, a leased webserver with Hostek.com, something different happens. 
 The .ajax() call accesses the CFC which writes to the database, then after 
about five seconds, refreshes the screen with the data passed into the CFC as 
querystring parameters.  This page refresh is mucking up the purpose of using 
ajax.

I haven't a clue why this behavior is server-specific nor if the area of 
research is Cold Fusion or the CF Admin settings or something else related to 
JQuery.  I have debugging IPs turned off on both environments.  Why does an 
ajax post turn into a get and refresh the URL after it's successful on 
production and not development?

Thanks and hope it's an easy one
Brent

Re: Adding a border to text using CFImage

[Terry Troxel]

Leigh it went from better to worse.
I said it worked when I put the 3 files in a folder off wwwroot called
wordart in my laptop with CF 9.
It works perfectly.
I then uploaded it to my windows 2003 server with CF 9 into a sub folder
called wordart in my website.
It worked PERFECTLY ONCE. now if I go back there I get this error:

Variable ___IMPLICITARRYSTRUCTVAR0 is undefined.
Why does it run without errors on my local machine and not the server.
I googled the error and Ben Nadel has a post on it, but I can't decipher
the reason it's happening on one and not the other.

Re: (ot) SEO

[Steve 'Cutter' Blades]

The search engine must hit the page directly. So, if you want to index 
your listing of toyota trucks, the /trucks/toyota had better show your 
listing, not a button to get to the listing. A better option might be to 
go by make, then by bodystyle (/toyota/trucks or /toyota/suv). This 
allows you to list by make (/toyota), by bodystyle (/toyota/sedan), by 
model (/toyota/camry), by trimand so on and so forth. Consistency helps.

Re: CFScript Book

[Aaron Rouse]

I have worked with CF developers who "scoff at" any CFScript usage but for
reasons most would not assume.  They did it because they flat out did not
understand the syntax and I am not referring to some abundant overuse of
CFScript here.  It can sometimes be a balancing act of coding how you want
and/or think you should v. staying employed and making some adjustments so
others stay "happy".

RE: Editing the http info before it goes to the browser. [SOLVED]!

[DURETTE, STEVEN J]

Dave and everyone else, I actually solved this one!

I couldn't view the headers, but with a little bump from Ben Nadel's blog 

http://www.bennadel.com/blog/758-ColdFusion-GetPageContext-Massive-Exploration.htm

I was able to come up with this:  (I'm using Pragma as an example but can be 
used for any header created with CFHeader):



The first part of the setHeader is a string that has the header name, the 
second is a string with a value. By using blank ("") it actually removed the 
header from being passed.

I tested this with Firefox & firedebug. The header was actually gone. I was 
also able to do things like:

 
which sent Steve! Instead of the file date.

However, this didn't work exactly:
 it 
didn't work exactly as expected because the X-Powered-By was actually set by 
IIS. So instead of Steve I got X-Powered-By: Steve, ColdFusion8. Which when you 
look at how headers are supposed to work it did what it is supposed to.

Just have to remember that you can only "change" things that existed before and 
during the request, the webserver can still add stuff!

Steve

The url in the generated image tags is probably pointing to the wrong location. 
You can change the defaults for the various paths in the init() function: ie  
init( urlPath, artDir, fontDir)

Re: Adding a border to text using CFImage

[Leigh]

No worries. It was a fun question .. and I learned something new myself. While 
perusing the cfc source I figured out how to create the "outer" stroke effect :)


> So this cfc will not work using CF8 

I think it should work if you get rid of the CF9 specific syntax. But you would 
have to try it to be sure. 


Since CF8 does not allow the implicit syntax within function calls, just 
declare the options structure separately. 

    
     #wordart.getArt(text='Start',options=attr )#

RE: Adding a border to text using CFImage

[Terry Troxel]

LEIGH,
This is crazy again.
I uploaded the folder with the test.cfm and the cfc to a CF9 server and as I
said it worked.
I sent you my last reply stating that.
Went back and reran the file and I get red x's where the demo images were
but the plain text is there net to the red x.
I deleted the folder, reuploaded and red x's again.
I looked at the directory structure and it has created a tree of new folders
and the png images with superlong filenames are there.
I then hand typed the url to the images and they displayed perfectly. 
Terry

Editing the http info before it goes to the browser.

[DURETTE, STEVEN J]

Ok, I have a situation that I'm not sure how to handle.

I'm working on an application where I am not allowed to do anything to the 
settings created at an upper layer of the app. In those upper layers there is a 
CFHEADER tag that is causing problems for my part of the application. I need to 
remove it before it gets sent to the browser.

Does anyone know how to remove that before it gets sent? I've tried 
GetHttpRequestData() and GetPageContext() but neither of those show the header 
tags that I'm trying to remove.

Thanks,
Steve

(ot) SEO

[Dave Hatz]

Question about SEO page hits.  If we have a button on web page that displays 
search results, will the search results page count towards a Page Hit for SEO?

We have a page for example http://www.mycars.com/trucks/toyota and on this page 
we have a button to display search results for dealers that sell toyota trucks. 
 The results page will be something like 
http://www.mycars.com/trucks/toyota/results.cfm

Does the Search Engines register a page hit on our results page?

Yes, I thought I stated that somewhere in the original thread.
I tried it in CF9 and it works, thank you a bunch leigh for putting up with
my lack of knowledge.
So this cfc will not work using CF8 or could you show me a way to call it in
there?

I've never changed my coding style to make a non-CF developer happy, seems
a waste of time. If you prefer it, that's one thing, but you should never
measure your own self worth by comments made by someone ignorant of the
language.

Re: CFScript Book

[Aaron Rouse]

Agreed and someone could always write themselves some custom functions as
wrappers to CF tags for prior versions CF or perhaps even what is missing
in the current.  To a point at least.  I have been a CFScript Nazi for well
over a decade now but fully recognize a place for it and a place for when
to use the tags. I very rarely use it for outputting things and can't say I
really have had a need for much of the added tags-to-functions introduced
in CF9.  We though have many pre-CF9 servers so also does not make too much
sense for me to write anything specific to CF9.

Re: Arabic / Other languages POI Excel Writing

[Leigh]

Are you using POI directly or through some kind of wrapper (ie cfspreadsheet, 
poiUtility.cfc, etcetera..)?  

Can you post your code?

Terry - Works perfectly with CF9. Any chance you are using CF8? I do not think 
implicit structures were supported in function calls until CF9.

RE: emailing a cfchart?

[DURETTE, STEVEN J]

Actually in a way you can. Generate the charts as files, then use cfmailparam 
to include the files. 

Create a variable that holds the fileinformation:


Generate your chart as a variable and then save it:
...


The cfmailparam code looks like this:


Then in your html code for the email have:


It will include it inline.

RE: Adding a border to text using CFImage

[Terry Troxel]

Leigh,

Here is my test page using the Basic Example as you said:



Untitled



 
#wordart.getArt("CFWheels is the future and the future is written in
ColdFusion", 
{font="LinLibertine", fontstyle="bolditalic", fontSize=30})#

#wordart.getArt("The future is written in ColdFusion")# 



It is running in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\wordart\
The 2 files, test.cfm, wordart.cfc are in that folder with no subfolders.

Here is the error:
The CFML compiler was processing:

An expression beginning with wordart.getArt, on line 9, column 10.This
message is usually caused by a problem in the expressions structure.
The body of a cfoutput tag beginning on line 8, column 2.
 
  
The error occurred in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\1wordart\test.cfm: line 9
 
7 : 
8 :  
9 : #wordart.getArt("CFWheels is the future and the future is
written in ColdFusion", 
10 : {font="arial", fontstyle="bolditalic", fontSize=30})# 
11 : #wordart.getArt("The future is written in ColdFusion")#

Re: Adding a border to text using CFImage

[Leigh]

Terry,

The examples on the website say if you are using it with CFWheels you "just 
[call the] getArt() function since it is made available to your controllers and 
views.". Otherwise, you need to create an instance of the component first and 
call init(). Then use yourInstance.getArt() instead of just getArt(). Try the 
code in the "Basic Example" section. That should work for you.

Re: CFScript Book

[Scott Brady]

As of CF9, the vast majority of CF can be written in script, if you
desire.  Almost every tag has a cfscript equivalent (I believe there were a
few that didn't make the cut, but I can't recall which ones off-hand).  Of
course, some things are a bit more tedious doing them in script (such as
outputting content and running queries).
