ER-Diagram Tools

2001-04-19 Thread Chris Sham

Does anyone have pros/cons of ER Studio or other ER-Diagram/Database Management tools. 
 Of the little bit of ER Studio (and components: Rapid SQL, DB-Artisan, etc..) the 
tools looked impressive.  I am looking for reasons why I need it.  Any testimonials or 
lack there of for such tools would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Push alert page to browser?

2001-01-31 Thread Chris Sham

Have you considered using a hidden frame.  This hidden frame could
automatically reload every so often check for time frame of session
variable.  If it is about to expire then the hidden frame could redirect the
main frame to an alert page (or popup a new window or create a js alert
window).

Re: Weird Problem

2001-01-30 Thread Chris Sham

Note what you are doing.  In essence you are saying 'INPUT TYPE="TEXT"
VALUE="this is a "quoted title" to view">  See the error.  If you use
HTMLEditFormat you will be fine.  For example, 'INPUT TYPE="TEXT"
VALUE="#HTMLEditFormat(myVar)#">

Re: how to make bar, line chart in coldfusion

2001-01-25 Thread Chris Sham

Just a couple ideas:
Use tables with cells with bgcolor set.  Based on your data use colspan
and rowspan to make bars of different heights.  You will have to calculate
total number of cells so you can create correct numbers of cells based on
your spans.

Use an image (small solid color square) and use ColdFusion to set the
height and/or width of the image to create a bar chart.  Also, using tables
you can create x/y axis with values.

Re: Web Based SQL Manager

2001-01-12 Thread Chris Sham

I'm game, but what's the catch.  No preview?  No website we can go to and
see a preview and download it?  I could use a free web based sql manager.
Where are the details?
