Using CFX_Excel
Good Morning, Are there any known issues surrounding the use of the CFX_Excel tags? I'm using it for several applications now, and I was wondering if there are any issues to be aware of - like, how many concurrent calls to Excel can it handle? The reason I've asked is that two days in a row, Excel on our server caused a "kernel32.dll" error and locked the server. Now, assuming that nothing is hosed up in Windows NT (we all know that never happens) and the Excel install is A-OK (which it seems to have been to the point the problems started) - what are the possibilities? I'm wondering if too much traffic on the tag/application combo might be the culprit? Also, can you do a CFLOCK to avoid this problem? Any thoughts? Thanks, Dave = "Technology" is stuff that was invented after you were born.

CFMAIL issues?
I saw some discussion about CFMAIL only being able to handle 40 email addresses at a crack. I'm looking for more insight into this issue. I have an application where instructors can email messages to their entire class list. Now, I do this by querying the database and getting the emails from the list. I send them one at a time, vs putting all in the "TO:" box. Where is the limit in CFMAIL? Is it an issue of only looping through 40 addresses before dying? Or is it a limit of 40 addresses in the "TO:" box. The reason I ask is that some of the lists have up to 300 names. What can someone tell me about this?

You cannot assign a name to a submit-img button. But something you can do, it's verify if isdefined("X") and isdefined("Y") .. x and y return the position on the img that the user clicked.

Re: Security holes revisited -- reward offered
Just for clarification This person would break into a local ISP, post the general information about the hole, smtp port open, etc, etc, go to the next local ISP and do the same thing, all on the same place. He wouldn't remove the information unless it was fixed AND he was informed/happened across it or he was paid to fix it.

Captupturing Form Elements
Hello all. I have a work page that may recieve form submission from several different pages. These pages may have different numbers of form elements and the forms elements have different names. Is there some generic code that I can right that will take any form submissions and pass them on to the page it is forwarding too, regardless of names. This is something I could do with ASP by iterating through the forms numerically without specifying names, but I dont know how to do that in CF.

Rather annoying CFObject problem
Hi everyone, I'm having some problems getting cfobject to connect to some COM objects with which I am working. In fact the only COM object I am able to connect to and create at the moment is the Allaire.DocEx1.1 class. What I really want to connect to is a custom COM class called AS_IH010 but keep getting "Class not registered" error message. But, after checking with OLE viewer I have verified that the class is indeed registered. Also, if it weren't registered then the Other software which uses this class wouldn't be working either.

That's essentially > what I'd do if I tried typing http://yoursite.com/ in by browser. > Two, what if I fingered your box when I found we were[n't] > running a webserver. If one or two ports are legit, why not > three, four, ... or 65k? The difference is one of degree, not of kind, and one of perceived intent. If you connect to one port, using an HTTP client, you're trying to retrieve HTML documents from a web server. If you do a port scan, what's your intent? You're obviously not interested in using a specific service, are you? The problem is determining intent and malice, but in the "real world" we solve that problem all the time. We determine intent based on the observed behavior of the potential bad actor. Why should it be any different for things we do with computers? If I see someone walking through the neighborhood rattling all the doorknobs, shouldn't I assume the worst? > Slippery slope, yes. But you could make the argument that > it's unethical to try to connect to a machine on port 80 if > it hasn't been "advertized" as a web server. It certainly may be unethical. Again, it goes back to intent. If I use ONE SINGLE PORT with the intent of penetrating the system, that's unethical - unless it's my own system. However, no one will be able to tell that I've got bad intentions if I connect to just one port. > I guess the best real-world analogy is walking through an office and > turning door knobs to see which are or aren't locked.

You can't look in a > hamper just by trying the doorknob, and seeing what happens. Again, if I see someone walking through the office, trying all the doorknobs, I'm going to assume bad intent, all other things being equal. And, why do you say that real-world analogies are flawed? I happen to live in the real world, and the ideas that we live by all come from the real world. We've got nothing but real-world analogies to go by, in determining right and wrong in the computer world. Why should property rights disappear when it comes to computers? It's very important that we use real-world analogies; it's also important that we find the closest analogy. That's how we determine whether an act is right or wrong. People in our profession need to spend a little more time doing this, or the legislators will do it themselves, and their analogies might not be any good. > Oh, and about the locksmith scenerio, let's rephrase it so he > doesn't enter and leave a note. He picks the lock, opens the > door (maybe not even), closes it, locks it, leaves, and calls > later to leave voicemail. Well, then, I guess that's OK. However, if he was doing this at night, and I assumed the worst, and when he pushed the door open I let him have both barrels, that would be OK too. Or, let's suppose I was out, and I came back and saw him busy at work picking the lock. Should I wait for him to finish, and write his note? Picking a lock to show its weaknesses, or compromising a site to show its weaknesses, is wrong, unless it's your lock or your site. It's as simple as that. Now, you'd certainly want to differentiate between compromising and scanning; if the locksmith looked at the lock, and said, "Oh, that's one of those cheap Taiwanese locks - I could pick that in 30 seconds" that would be a scan. If he takes his credit card and slips it into the door jamb to open the door, he's compromised your security. Even if his intent was good, how would I know at the time he did it? We generally judge perceived intent at the time of the act - if the police saw him, and he said, "I'm sorry, officer, but I just wanted to demonstrate the weakness of this lock" I don't think they'd buy it. > In my original post, I neglected the "post publicly" clause. > I agree that it's wrong to do that.

The person who you informed also judged your intent to be good, and he thanked you. If you'd used that as a marketing lead, both he and I would likely question your intent.

Using CFX_Excel
Anybody got a clue on this??? 8-) + Original Message Sent 7:47am ET + Good Morning, Are there any known issues surrounding the use of the CFX_Excel tags? I'm using it for several applications now, and I was wondering if there are any issues to be aware of - like, how many concurrent calls to Excel can it handle? The reason I've asked is that two days in a row, Excel on our server caused a "kernel32.dll" error and locked the server. Now, assuming that nothing is hosed up in Windows NT (we all know that never happens) and the Excel install is A-OK (which it seems to have been to the point the problems started) - what are the possibilities? I'm wondering if too much traffic on the tag/application combo might be the culprit? Also, can you do a CFLOCK to avoid this problem? Any thoughts?

Since I can't determine what's inside your head, I'd judge your intent based on my observation of your behavior. I'm more likely to see a port scan, and I'm more likely to suspect malice, than if you used an HTTP client to connect to an HTTP service, etc. Deep down in your black little heart, though, you could certainly be one of the most malicious, yet supremely patient, criminal minds, and I just wouldn't know it.

CFX_ONCR_Cybercash error questions ...
Hi all I've been asked to determine why a site using the CFX_ONCR_Cybercash tag occaisionally has an error. The symptom: the card is charged, but the software (the product) is not delivered. Instead, the customer gets an error. I have hardcopies of the errors. All they say is 'error occured in CFX_ONCR_Cybercash. Unexpected error while processing an element with a general identifier of (CFX_ONCR_Cybercash3). The client says this occurs once in maybe 20 transactions. A fellow developer theorized that it was a network problem ... that the connection between the site and Cybercash's server was unexpectedly lost. He suggested I have a screen come up asking people to re-submit. Wheras the card was charged, I'm looking for other ideas.

If you connect to one port, using an HTTP client, you're trying to retrieve HTML documents from a web server. If you do a port scan, what's your intent? You're obviously not interested in using a specific service, are you? The problem is determining intent and malice, but in the "real world" we solve that problem all the time. We determine intent based on the observed behavior of the potential bad actor. Why should it be any different for things we do with computers?

But you could make the argument that > it's unethical to try to connect to a machine on port 80 if > it hasn't been "advertized" as a web server. It certainly may be unethical. Again, it goes back to intent. If I use ONE SINGLE PORT with the intent of penetrating the system, that's unethical - unless it's my own system. However, no one will be able to tell that I've got bad intentions if I connect to just one port. > I guess the best real-world analogy is walking through an office and > turning door knobs to see which are or aren't locked.

You can't look in a > hamper just by trying the doorknob, and seeing what happens. Again, if I see someone walking through the office, trying all the doorknobs, I'm going to assume bad intent, all other things being equal. And, why do you say that real-world analogies are flawed? I happen to live in the real world, and the ideas that we live by all come from the real world. We've got nothing but real-world analogies to go by, in determining right and wrong in the computer world. Why should property rights disappear when it comes to computers? It's very important that we use real-world analogies; it's also important that we find the closest analogy. That's how we determine whether an act is right or wrong. People in our profession need to spend a little more time doing this, or the legislators will do it themselves, and their analogies might not be any good. > Oh, and about the locksmith scenerio, let's rephrase it so he > doesn't enter and leave a note.

However, if he was doing this at night, and I assumed the worst, and when he pushed the door open I let him have both barrels, that would be OK too. Or, let's suppose I was out, and I came back and saw him busy at work picking the lock. Should I wait for him to finish, and write his note? Picking a lock to show its weaknesses, or compromising a site to show its weaknesses, is wrong, unless it's your lock or your site. It's as simple as that. Now, you'd certainly want to differentiate between compromising and scanning; if the locksmith looked at the lock, and said, "Oh, that's one of those cheap Taiwanese locks - I could pick that in 30 seconds" that would be a scan. If he takes his credit card and slips it into the door jamb to open the door, he's compromised your security. Even if his intent was good, how would I know at the time he did it? We generally judge perceived intent at the time of the act - if the police saw him, and he said, "I'm sorry, officer, but I just wanted to demonstrate the weakness of this lock" I don't think they'd buy it. > In my original post, I neglected the "post publicly" clause. > I agree that it's wrong to do that.

If you're unable to connect to any classes, other than an Allaire class, perhaps when you installed an Allaire product it damaged COM information in some way. I can't imagine how that would happen, but here are some things you can try. 1. Try calling the custom object from ASP. 2. Unregister & reregister the problem component, then try again with CFOBJECT. 3. Download and register a freeware/shareware ASP component of your choice.

RE: Captupturing Form Elements
Well, if I understand it correctly... CF 4.5 stores the FORM elements as a structure. Since you are able to convert structures and other complex data into WDDX packets as they do in Spectra, you should be able to do this. Now, I think it was not until 4.5 that Allaire coverted the FORM,URL and etc. to structures. So, I think you might be out of luck with it in CF 4.0. There is a petty good article in CF Developer's Journal Volume 2: Issue 2 about this topic. The article title is "Improving Web Page Usability with Wizards" by Daniel Jean. It might help you out.

Re: Captupturing Form Elements
WDDX wont parse and evaluate the form field elements, but it seems it would make a for an easy way to pass the elements on to the next template, as the poster's message indicated that the next cfm/page wouldnt be processing them. Also it seems it would depend on what ver of CFAS the poster is using to determine the best solution, AND what needs to be done with the form elements and there values - ultimately. but if... CFAS 4.5, and the next template just needs to pass on the form elements to a following template - wddx seems it might be a good tool. then make a hidden form field name in the next template where the value is "yourvarnamehere" and pass it along...

Re: Captupturing Form Elements
if you're using 4.5, form variables are automatically in a structure (named FORM) that always exists - it's just empty if there is no form submission. what i would suggest is on your action page, just do a StructKeyList(FORM) which will give you a list of all the keys (the formfield names). from that you will be able to get the form values. this is the same idea as brian set out below, but it works with a structure instead of a list which i would think would work more quickly. -emily Brian Peddle wrote: > > You can loop over all the fieldnames submitted: > > > > Put whatever processing on the fieldnames you need here > > > -- Original Message -- > From: "Lee Moore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2000 09:36:42 -0400 > > >Hello all. > I have a work page that may recieve form submission from several different > pages.

(OT) SQL Server 7 data input/retrieval question
Hello, Forgive the off topic post, just not sure where else to get the best answer. I have an application where I use a list box from which multiple selections can be made. When a selection is made and the form is submitted, that selections ID is sent to the appropriate table column. If two selections are made, both ID's are sent to the column, etc. My problem is that I can't query the data for display the way I want to because the query can't distinguish that there are 2 ID's in the column. Instead it seems to think there is just one. So if... Netscape has an ID of "1" and Internet Explorer has an ID of "2" and both are selected and input into the table column.. the data in the column looks like "12". But "12" isn't a valid ID so my query returns nothing. What would I need to do to correct this?

I need to set it to something that is at least a version 4 browser, for example: "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT; DigExt)" because right now my request is being rejected by the asp page I am trying to send info to because it thinks it is talking to an old browser.

Hey! My heart's good as gold, it's that damn voice in my head. It tells me to do things, aggh! More seriously though, I understand and agree with much of what you are saying. As part of my job I perform local security scans and audits as well as serve on a security response team.

Since I can't determine what's inside your head, I'd judge your intent based on my observation of your behavior. I'm more likely to see a port scan, and I'm more likely to suspect malice, than if you used an HTTP client to connect to an HTTP service, etc. Deep down in your black little heart, though, you could certainly be one of the most malicious, yet supremely patient, criminal minds, and I just wouldn't know it. That's a problem we can't solve. We have to judge intent by observed behavior. We've already discussed ethics. It may be legal or illegal, depending on your arrangement with your host. If that arrangement doesn't cover port scans, be prepared to explain yourself (and if you can, do it in advance). The network admins are in the best position to do this; they're the ones with the tools to notice scans across multiple addresses, and they can monitor all the network traffic through one or two points through which it will all cross. As for NT server admins, guilty as charged. Many NT sysadmins don't know very much, but that's the appeal of NT - you don't have to know very much, and I think that's a good thing, generally.

If you're using CF 4.5.x, you can set the USERAGENT attribute in the CFHTTP tag.

You could store the IDs as a list in your field, instead of putting them together as it appears you're doing now. Then, you could use the data as a list with the SQL IN operator: SELECT stuff FROM table WHERE ID IN (ListOfBrowserIDs) Or, you could normalize your tables, so that you don't store multiple occurrences of data within a single field. You'd need a table to link information to your browser list, so you might have one table, let's say "User", another called "Browser", and a third to link users with browsers.

RE: Programatically setting search path for custom tags
OK - (seriously) can I get a show of hands (via email) of thos developers who think the ability to specify the path to a custom tag would be a good feature - specifically NOT using cf module...and here's why. I like the ability to call a custom tag inside a site, while having that sites/apps structure NOT rely on any specific hosting provider. So if I create and or use custom tags and keep them in a central place for use througout the site I need to use cfmodule and provide attributes. My problem with this solution comes in the form of writing VTML dialog boxes for easy implementation. The minute you call the tag in cfmodule and then you want to go back and edit it (using the VTML dialog box, or tag insight you wrote) you can't because the tag now is a cfmodule tag and thus uses teh cfmodule VTML file.. Does anyone else see this as a problem??? Thanks James -Original Message- From: Deanna L.

RE: Security holes revisited
I've heard views as extreme as hack'em back. If you feel that malicious intent exists, possibly evidenced by repeated or escalating probes, I would track down the source of the probes and contact the respective ISP(s). This can be VERY difficult. If action isn't taken by the ISP(s) try the legal route. If that doesn't work, start blocking traffic at the router or firewall. If the situation doesn't allow you to be patient then skip straight to the blocking solution. Unfortunately, this may also block legitimate traffic. To be honest though, most ISP's will not take action if all you can show is that a user performed a port scan but, no further action. Simple port scans are not prosecutable, and shouldn't be in my opinion. It can be argued as an enumeration of services, whatever, but, presently the law on such issues is still very flimsy and dangerous. I say dangerous because the rules are still being ironed out and the people who yell the loudest, and get the most attention from politicians, are big businesses which don't really give a damn about personal freedoms on the Net, only making a profit. As we saw after the recent batch of DoS attacks, reactionary measures by uneducated people prevail. This is VERY dangerous. To further explain my "I don't think port scans should be prosecutable" remark ... I feel this way because to make such action illegal would provide a precedent for more extreme measures which are very undesirable. To use the previously popular analogy, you don't want someone walking down your hallway rattling every doorknob in an attempt to break in but, I'd guess you'd be even more pissed if every time you walked down any hallway some goon in a dark suite and sunglasses hassled you about your intent.

Re: Using CFX_Excel

I've been using the tag but the volume is low, and thus have never seen it. I guess the safest way around this would be to use an exclusive lock, server wide on this tag.

RE: Combining Cf and ASP in the same Template
Steve - I believe your wrong on this issue asn only ONE application server mapping can be made to a file extension - you CAN NOT make a mapping that follows a path... When you set up CF or ASP you create amapping on the webserver that points to a .dll so the resolution process looks like this: An HTTP call to the web server. the webserver 'sees' the file extension .cfm. the webserver knows to pass that page request to the cf .dll The CF handles the request and feeds back the page to the web server to give back to the requesting browser. There is no was to have CF give back the page to the web server and then have the web server hand the page to the ASP engine to parse. before it goes back to the browser.. You can emulate this process by making an http call (Via CFHTTP) to an asp page. this way you have cf doing all the cfprocessing - it makes a seperate http call to the web server for the results of an ASP page. then returns the HTML to the web browser. But this is a psuedo solution - it gives the apperance of two application server pages being resolved on one template. But in relaity, remember the return for the HTTP call is plain text after the ASP engine did it's work. This works for the most part.

What I am trying to do is the following: - In access I have an autonumber column that would get updated here automatically. - Here I would go through and selected max(id) as lastrecordadded Now I could use this record to write to some other tables and keep a relationship. But with SQL, it seems that there is no autonumber so when I do my first insert, I have a field with type "uniqueid" and when I write to that table I pass NewId(). Now how do I retrieve that information? Max() does not want to work in my sql routine. I'm really stuck, and this should seem pretty easy to someone who knows SQL.

Re: Solaris vs. NT
> Does anyone have a performance comparison of Cold Fusion running on Solaris > versus Winnt? I've been doing load testing for the last two weeks. And yesterday we decided to exchange our Ultra 10's for NT solutions. Our application causes cfserver to hit 100% CPU usage extremely fast, and can barely handle 2 simultaneous users on our Solaris boxes. Granted, an Ultra10S isn't Sun's power server. But at the same time the kind of processing power you can buy on a Wintel platform for the same money is drastic. So we went with a Quad PIII-600/512Meg Ram. Cold Fusion is also just plain faster on NT, as it was originally designed for it. There's no doubt that NT is the way to go on 4.0. We testeed 4.5 for Solaris, it holds up better under high load, but was still choking eventually. Mind you, this case is for our application where ** EVERYTHING ** is database driven, lay out of the pages, drop down options in forms, graphics being used, etc... We developed a portal basically, and all the CF functions we call take their toll on the CPU. We don't have the budget to powerup our Sparcs, so we had to settle for a trade (with our IT dept).

MAX should work fine in your SQL statement, but there are more efficient ways to do this than using MAX and CFTRANSACTION. You might instead write an SQL stored procedure that returns the identity column value for the inserted record, or a trigger that does the same thing.

If the prototype give results, then ask them to buy you a Solaris license. Wietse Venema has some tools for pumping tons of mail into postfix. It is a very hot MTA. You could have roomful of PIII's running postfix in parallel, giving you great redundancy, and just have CF/ASPQmail spread the output over the MTA outgoing farm.

Re: Is HomeSite Soon To Be History?
The fact is that as technology progresses, some things that it was important to do by hand become less so. Using SQL Server is a good example of this. A good admin needs to know more than the new wizards in SQL server 7, but that doesn't mean that the wizards are all bad, are necessarily inferior, or even that there is a compelling reason to know how to do by hand what some of the wizards do. If they do the job properly, that's what matters. You simply bypass those that don't. And THAT is the key! Similarly with visual editors. I still use Studio for the most part, but I sometimes use Dreamweaver. There are many operations that are just much faster with a visual editor and if you know what you are doing, then you don't have to worry about bad code because you won't be making it (unlike Frontpage where you can't stop it). Take tables: it is much faster to move columns around and generally manipulate tables in DW than in Studio, so I often pop in there to do it. I have no idea what a previous poster was talking about: DW never inserts lots of empty rows or anything else. Fireworks creates shim rows when it outputs HTML tables to split graphics, but I've never had DW do that. On the other hand, outside of particular things that I find quicker to pop into DW to do, I still code by hand using Studio or TextPad. Knee-jerk ignorance of the tools will no more benefit a developer than knee-jerk acceptance. They have to be evaluated and used properly if they are used at all. But I guarantee that there are many operations which, by dropping into a good visual editor, I will complete faster and with equal quality, than anyone using a text-based editor-- and no one on the receiving end will ever know which is which. As long as that is the case, it's a good thing. c -- Chris Lott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Technical Manager p907.474.5122 | f907.474.5402 | PGP Key ID: 0x8687E87E -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Re: HTML question about spacer GIF's
I've found that your pathing can make all the difference. IE ignores when it can't actually find the image, Netscape outlines the missing image in the size given in the attributes.
