nesting custom tags
I have a custom tags that calls other custom tags they are work individually, but I need some help getting them to work altogether. Ideally, the parent tagruns a query and loops over the other three child tags and fills in their attribute values with results from the query. The child tags run their update queries and return to the parent tags that then doe sthe final arithmetic and returns a value to the calling page. But, my child tags won't run. It says the attribute is undefined. What am I missing? My server is running CF 4.5, so CFCs and UDFs are not an option. Thanks!

Re: nesting custom tags
Actually, I think I want it to run both ways. I want the parent tag to set the child tags attributes and then for the child tag use those attribute sto create a new value and to send the new to the parent tag for updating and further calculating. Did I just ask for too much? If I read you correctly, you want the parent tag to update attributes sent to the child tag. You need to switch it around though. The parent can set data that the child tag can read using getBaseTagData(). [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: nesting custom tags
Oops. Okay, I should probably get the semantics right. (: Will the 'sorta' code I posted in rplky to the previous post work? I have a custom tags that calls other custom tags they are I'm not sure what exactly you mean by nested custom tags - it sounds like you're actually calling one custom tag from within another, but that's not what people generally mean by nested custom tags. For example, you might have something like this: cf_foo attribute=value cf_bar attribute=value cf_bar attribute=value /cf_foo In this nested custom tag example, the CF_BAR custom tag isn't being called by CF_FOO, but rather by the same page that calls CF_FOO. However, these custom tags can share variables in various ways - any attributes passed to either instance of CF_BAR can be associated with CF_FOO using CFASSOCIATE, and CF_BAR can read attribute values received by CF_FOO using GetBaseTagData(). In any case, you'll probably have to post the code for the custom tag calls, as well as for the custom tags themselves, to get a useful answer.

protecting non-cf files
I'd like to protect some streaming media files for a subscription based service that would be powered by CF. The server that ColdFusion runs on isn't powerful enough to run both the streaming server and the CF server, so the streaming software is on another server. How can I protect the media files with ColdFusion? I figured out that I can restrict access to the html/cfm pages that have links to the media files, but not the media files themselves.

corrupted server memory
Being new to CF, I launched an application that used session variables without single-threading or locking anything. I now know that not doing these things can corrupt server memory. I've since turned on single-threading until I get everything locked, but I was wondering if I had really messed up the server. Will restarting the server fix any memory corruptions (that dumps all the CFIDs and CFTOKENs right?)? I've noticed in the logs that the CF server keeps restarting (several times a day), is it because the server's memory is corrupted or maybe something else? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

IE 5 and session variables
Is there something weird about how IE 5 handles session variables/cookies? I created a password-protected site that uses session variables to keep track of what folks have access to after they login, but users with IE 5.0 keep having problems. The nice folks at Figleaf gave me a little app. to make sure that cookies were being set, so I know that these users have cookies turned on. After they login it they get the succesful login screen, but then trying to go to any other page they get the access denied page.

Re: cfloop and group
Bryan Love wrote: wow. First of all it looks like you've forgotten to use #innerloop# anywhere in your code. The query is hard-coded to use [1] and [2] from the second dimension of your array. Perhaps each item in the first dimension contains a sub-array of only two items (documentID and headingID). If this is the case then why are you looping over the second dimension? This would cause the exact same query to be run twice, outputting the same single record each time. If this is the case then just eliminate the inner CFLOOP and remove GROUP= from the CFOUTPUT. The innerloop was a leftover from the code in Chapter 9 of the Developing Web Applications with ColdFusion book. Where I hard coded the 1 and 2 had been where innerloop would've been. I knew that column 1 was headingids and column 2 was docids, but I needed to loop through all the pairs of ids to find and output the actual names of documents and headings. I took the innerloop and group out and got the same result was before. Secondly, putting a query inside a double nested loop is not a very good idea. CFOUTPUT was given a GROUP attribute to avoid this kind of situation; it's just a matter of learning to use it correctly. It looks like you are basically trying to print the collection of documents stored in the original array. The only reason the query is inside the loop is so I can refer to the elements inside the array in my query. I'm not trying to use cfloop to group it, just use it to retreive the ids for the array so the query can use them to get the names (and other associated information). I don't know how else to retreive the information in the array without looping. a query like this would be much more efficient: SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE document.documentid IN (...docID list...) AND headingid IN (...headingID list...) AND (join document and heading somehow here so ensure the proper records are related to each other) and document.nameno=articlenames.nameno and document.documentid=article.documentid order by headingname, articlename Then you can use the GROUP attribute in your CFOUTPUT to control the output FYI: GROUPs can be nested... cfoutput query=myQuery group=group1 cfoutput group=group2 cfoutput That last AND (join document and heading somehow here so ensure the proper records are related to each other) is the problem. I can't figure out how to do it without cfloop. The two columns of the array were originally 2 query-driven lists that I converted into an array. So I thought I'd use listgetat to synchronize the position in the lists, but that would require using a loop to go through the lists. Any ideas on how to sync the lists without looping? Thanks!

self-referring table?
Hi! I have an Access table that holds the hierarchy of headings (for a topical index) for a large law and policy journal, and I'm very, very confused about how to use it. The columns it has are parentheadingID, childHeadingID fields, and haschildren (which somehow relates to the number of levels). When the ParentID and Child ID are equal that's a top heading. Then you bounce down the rows to the final heading for that branch by matching the childheading id of the first row to the parentheading id of another row, then take that row's childheadingid to find the next parentheadingid...ad nauseum... until the last childheadingid doesn't appear as another parentheadingid. I'm sure this type of table or logic has a name and has been used before. What is it called? Are there some examples I can see to better understand how to use this in my CF code? Thanks!

We do however appologize for the downtime, but it is necessary for the system to be installed on that machine. After May 13th, 2001 you will no longer experience downtime.
