Parsing text containing CF tags

2001-02-23 Thread girmawi negese

I would appreciate your help on the following
question.
Is there a way to parse text containing CF tags
without
the tag being interpreted by the server?
What I am trying to do is generate a query dynamically
by writting it to a text file. Then read the query
from the text to a variable to include it in to a cfm
template to do the database query. 
While at it, you can give me a suggestion if there is
any other better way of doing the dynamic query
generation instead of witting it first to a text file.

Re: Null Values

2000-11-09 Thread girmawi negese

There is no IsNull function in Coldfusion. However,It
helps to know that NULL is neither numeric nor
anything. Try the IsNumeric function. It might do the
job for you.

"cfhttp connection failure" error

2000-10-06 Thread girmawi negese

Selam,

I can't figure out why the cfhttp tag keeps giving me
the "connection failure" error. I am trying to
download a file from another site. It worked for me
briefly once. I even tried higher requesttimeout?? to
no avail. What's strange is small part of the file is
downloaded before the connection failure. Nothing
changed on the server. If you guys don't have the
solution I am going to resort to a perl cgi call to do
the job.

Thank you,

RE: Help! Cold Fusion error and Oracle!

2000-10-03 Thread girmawi negese

I recommend you capitalize all the column names in
oracle. The error could be because of the mixed case
in"newsID". Either put the newsID column in single
quotes or make it uniform.
