RE: 'ing FORM Field Names Problem
Change it to: NAME = #Evaluate("tempvar")# and it should work. You don't really need to set the temp variable. Remember, there is no variable named "form.tempcomment". You are already past the rebuilding of the form name, which was done with: At that point, tempvar = the value of #form.full_name_x#, where x is the current loop index. You could even shorten the code by using something like: NAME = EVALUATE('full_name_'& PersonsAttending) This will print the value you want. You would need to assign a variable in order to really use that value. INSERT INTO MyTable (full_name) VALUES ('#myName#') Good luck!

Problem Handling Sessions
Hi Folks, I have two questions about sessions. 1) I have an application that opens a pop-up javascript window with a form. This on the javascript window submits itself back to the template that opened it. It seemed to be working fine, but suddenly I am loosing my session when the form is submitted. (Its changing to a new CFID and CFTOKEN). The question is what could be causing me to loose the session in this way and how do I fix this? Do I have to start passing URLTOKEN around? 2) What methods can I use to prolong the length of a session? I can't change the timeout value because I am using an ISP.

Re: login verification problem
Try this. Query for the information WHERE (LoginName='#LoginName#' AND Password='#Password#') as you did below. You are attempting to gain access into a restricted area. You could also run a query for Loginname WHERE (LoginName='#LoginName#' AND Password='#Password#') and run the second query in the cfif statement. I don't see that it would be much more secure and it would be faster.

Re: login verification problem
For starters, this statement evaluates to true, even if you put total junk in the text fields: "" so as far as the template is concerned, the person logged in. So, it displays the info, just minus the actual details because the query will fail, because the junk in the text fields doesn't match anything in the database. Instead, how about something like this? SELECT LoginName, Password, Name, Birthday, Age, PictureName, StreetAddress, etc, etc, etc, ... FROM Grad94 WHERE LoginName='#Form.LoginName#' AND Password='#Form.Password#' Yay! You are logged in. Oops! Login failed. Make sure to scope all of your variables too. I.E. If you have a variable that was creadted through a form submission, stick 'Form' in front of it, etc. Todd - Original Message - From: "Mark Smeets" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 31, 2000 10:36 PM Subject: login verification problem > Hi, > > Here's my problem, I've got a login page, in which when you login, you are > presented with your specific details that you filled out etc... > > Now, the problem is, if I just put in whatever text for the login and the > password (obviously not stored in the database under that persons entry) > instead of getting an error, I get the output page but just no details.

CF Apostrophe Bug
Bonnie wrote: > >you need to escape the apostrophes with > > > >then insert the new field into the query string. I've been fighting this >problem for 6 months and this is the solution that seems to work best. >Preservesinglequotes doesn't work in this instance. > >Hope this solves your problem > >Bonnie >AGS Bonnie, This depends on your database. This technique doesn't work with SQL server 7. My suggestion is to use a stored procedure with cfstoredproc. It takes care of the problem. There is a definate bug in the way that CF handles apostrophes. For example, in VBScript, if you want to insert data into SQL 7 that has an apostrophe in it, you simply change the variable to: varName = Replace(varname, "'", "''") The first apostrophe escapes the second one and it is entered correctly into the database. Try it in CF and it blows up. varUnSafeAtAnySpeed=#varUnSafeAtAnySpeed# INSERT INTO TEST (Name, Id) VALUES ('#varUnSafeAtAnySpeed#', 123) Ok...so let's try another tact. We'll look to see if there is an apostrophe, then insert one after it. INSERT INTO TEST (Name, Id) VALUES ('#varSQLSafeName#', 123) This doesn't blow it up, but it prints out wrong. Ok, let's hard code it into the query and see what happens. INSERT INTO TEST (Name, Id) VALUES ('O''Reilly Hard-Code', 123) SELECT * FROM TEST Id WHERE Id = 123 ORDER BY CreateDate This finally enters the correct data into the database and it displays correctly. But is it a bug in CF? Cut and paste the following into a new template and test it out for yourself: Use this form to demonstrate the bug with the apostrophe's in CF I found it while building a custom tag that makes insert queries. I made a similar function in ASP this weekend and copied it to CF. That's why I identified the bug. Thank Microshaft. 1) Start by building the two strings that you need for an update statement 2) Grab the values from the form and get the form elements 3) Set the update statement 4) Update sting: #attributes.update_string# #attributes.note# 5) Normally what we would do is to loop through the elements and add them to a list. However, since I first wrote this in ASP I didn't have that luxury. I did it the ASP way. 6) You figger out how long the string is, then cut off the last comma. 7) Length of the trimmed string: #iValuesFormSQLLength# 8) String before cutting off the last comma: #BeforeMidValuesFormSQL# 9) String after cutting off the last comma: #ValuesFormSQL# Insert - With space Insert - No Space Brian W.

login verification problem
Hi, Here's my problem, I've got a login page, in which when you login, you are presented with your specific details that you filled out etc... Now, the problem is, if I just put in whatever text for the login and the password (obviously not stored in the database under that persons entry) instead of getting an error, I get the output page but just no details. Not something I want to have happen. Here's what I have for code; I need a way to check and see if the form entry is being checked against the database entry. You are attempting to gain access into a restricted area. You are attempting to gain access into a restricted area. SELECT LoginName, Password, Name, Birthday, Age, PictureName, StreetAddress, City, Country, Phone, Email, WebSite, Question2, Question3, Question4, Question7, Question8, Question9, Question10, Question11, Question12, Question13, Question14, Question15, Question16, Question17, GeneralComments, EmailList, ICQ FROM Grad94 WHERE (LoginName='#LoginName#' AND Password='#Password#') and of course, the HTML goes below here for the output etc...and its closed off with the tag (not put in, just to save space), so the process works however it'll process anything for a login but just won't output anything when the login and password is wrong.

Authenticating on Active Directory
First off, congrats to Michael Smith and everyone at CFUN-2K for a great conference! Secondly, has anyone found a way to authenticate passwords off of Windows 2000's Active Directory? We were able to set it up through advanced security on one of our servers, but not the other. Are there other methods? Or is there a big secret to setting it up through advanced security that we don't know about? :) Thanks!

Re: cflock - BAH! and CF 4.51 question
In his case he felt that he was unable to turn off the "enforce strict attribute validation" setting, which is the server setting that handles exactly these circumstances. With this setting turned on, you will get errors in 4.x. With this setting turned off, the default, you will not get errors in 4.x. However, you will have issues in 4.5.1 if you don't have locks built in.

Oracle and the & sign
Hi All, 1) Can anyone using Oracle tell me how to get around referencing the & symbol in oracle? I have an SQL script that is designed for users to run in either Query Analyzer (SQL server) using ISQL (Sybase) like below: INSERT INTO documents (doc_id, doc_text) VALUES (1, "© Ektron 1999 & 2000, etc...") Apparently whereever there is an &(ampersand) oracle expects a value and prompts please enter value. 2) Does the Oracle ODBC driver prevent this from happening? The strings I am dealing with contain formatted HTML and there will be a lot of & symbols.

Re: Quirky Date Bug: MM/YY
What CF is doing is interpretting 08/03 as August 3rd of the current year. It automatically assumes that a date that looks like month/day is in the current year. When you enter something like 08/32, it gets "smart" and says that if it can't interpret it as month/day, then maybe it's supposed to be month/year. I believe it actually would interpret 08/32 as Aug 1st, 1932. I never try to interpret credit card expirations as dates, per se. I usually use two fields on a form and then store it as a simple string.

This is probably a common question. I wanted to know this once and this is where I got my answer. I've heard that varchar is better because the field lengths varies to the size of the contents. With char there is a set length and all extra space is taken up with spaces. That means that with varchar you won't have to be so fond of the Trim function and your db will probably end up smaller. You can still put a max length on the field, but the minimum length does not equal the max length. -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ 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.
Quirky Date Bug: MM/YY
Sorry if this is a repost, but I looked in the archives for references to this bug and couldn't find any. We have customers who are inputing their Credit Card information into a form field. For reasons that are beyond my control, we can't give them a drop down to select their month and year of expiration. So invariably people input their data in the traditional credit card date format of 08/02, or MM/YY. the problem is that Cold Fusion refuses to recognize this format, instead when I try and format the data, CF interprets the /01 as the day, not they year. So I get passed a form field with a string in it that is something like 08/02 I have tried LSParseDateTime , CreateODBCDate, and everything else I can think of. No matter what I do, if the form field contains data in the form of 08/02, CF screws up and interprets the date as 08/00. The wierd quirk is that if the year is over 31, it works, but if it's under 32, it reads it as 2000. Also, it doesn't matter if I change up the dateformat to MM/DD/ or anything else. It still misinterprets the YY part. I would appreciate any insight into this wierd bug. I know I can just write a little parser to fix the problem, but I just can't believe that CF can't handle such a common credit card convention. ---Hondo--- -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ 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.
Verity search with periods
I am trying to do a verity search on a collection I have created from various fields in a database. The search seems to work fine unless someone searches for something with a period in it and then only if the period is in the middle of the search string. An example would be 'The Talented Mr. Ripley'. If someone searches for 'Talented Mr.' then it works fine and the proper item comes back. It is when someone searches for 'Mr. Ripley' that the search comes back with no records found. Is the period some kind of wild card or it something else like that going on here?

RE: 'ing FORM Field Names Problem
One of the guys here came up with a hack to do this. Wrap an Evaluate around the expression, and that seemed to work for us in a similar situation. We'll not sure if this is clean ColdFusion or not, but it seems to get the job done. Here is a sample: Now tempcomment contains the value that full_name_3 from the previous page did.

RE: what is better varchar or char
>I was told that char is better than varchar. Is this right? >I am going to have fields that are set to be either 25 50 100 or 150 >characters long. Is there a reason any of these fields should be char or >varchar? I have always used varchar but I would like to know what is best. As in most things, "Better" is a relative judgment. The primary difference is that CHAR fields are right padded with spaces which can make them difficult to work with if your data is not all of the same size (say an SKU that is always a certain number of characters in length). VARCHAR fields store variable length character data without padding the data with white space. In my experience, the data stored in VARCHAR fields is easier to work with because I find I'm using the TRIM() function often with CHAR fields to eliminate the excess spaces. One other key difference in terms of functionality is that the CHAR data type does not allow null values. If you create a field in a table as CHAR with nulls allowed, SQL Server will just create that field as VARCHAR and you'll never know the difference except if you expect the data to be padded. Since the CHAR data type has less overhead associated with it, it is slightly faster than the VARCHAR data type. However, this is very minimal performance gain, one that is completely negated if you find yourself using the TRIM() function on the ColdFusion side. >Feel free to respond directly to me since it is OT ;-) Actually, I think this is pretty right on. :) Benjamin S.

'ing FORM Field Names Problem
I've got a form that is dynamically created based on how many people are being registered for an event. For example, if a person wants to register 4 people, I use to create a form with fields for the entry of 4 peoples' names. I.e.: Person 1: Next Person: The effect of this is that the name of the form fields changes during each step of the loop, such as: full_name_1 (where the index of "PersonsAttending" is 1) full_name_2 (where the index of "PersonsAttending" is 2) full_name_3 (where the index of "PersonsAttending" is 3) and so on. This works fine. But I'm having trouble in the template that receives the information. I want to the registration info out. I can get the first person's info fine, but for the fields where the field name has been incremented during looping, I can't figure out how to capture the fields. The looks something like this: Registration Received for: #FORM.Full_Name# Other People Registered: #FORM.Full_Name#_#PersonsAttending# ^^^ I've put "up carets" (^) under the spot where I'm having trouble. What I need to do is concatenate "_#PersonsAttending#" to #FORM.Full_Name#, but it has to be inside the # signs. I can't figure out how to do it. I've tried several variations and also tried using . Nothing seems to work. How do I get it so that the field from which the information is drawn gets incremented up with each loop? In the case where 4 people are registered, I need to get it so that the portion winds up with loops for: #FORM.Full_Name_1# #FORM.Full_Name_2# #FORM.Full_Name_3# I can't figure out how to get the FORM field's name changed using the .

RE: Insert date and time into database
the syntax is UPDATE hitclear SET cleardate = '#now()#' WHERE table_id = 'reeldemand' you have the set and where clauses reversed.

Re: Insert date and time into database
that is because you should put the WHERE clause at the end.

So, if you want to have a date 2 weeks in advance; DateAdd("d",14,Now()) And 2 weeks back; DateAdd("d",-14,Now()) If you're saying "Similar to the dateAdd function in CF", where else would you want to handle the dates?

Hi people, I'm trying to solve this problem of generating a random password can anyone asisst? It goes like this... a user enters a unique Login ID which is checked against a Dbase. (select loginID, id2,index >From table 1 Where loginID = form.loginID Next, If loginID doesn't exist; Then carry out instructions to generate new Id2 = / composed of: random 3 characters = the digits 001 at the end. Insert this new Id2 along with the form.LoginID into the table to create new record. ELSE if LoginID exists: (or a number of reocords exists which belong to user with form.loginid: use the value of the last Id2 inserted in the table or the record with an Id2 value with the highest digit value i.e. if 2 records were inserted into the table xxx001, and xxx002, the latter id2 value of xxx002 will be used to generate the new Id2 value: so that it should be an increment of 1 or new Id2 value = xxx003 .

RE: can this be done ? Part 2
Hi Gregg, > > > Paul or whoever can answer me, having a hard time understanding some of > this logic. The next botton and previous buttons do not work, and seem to > be switched. Any ideas what I am doing wrong ? Here is the code, thanks. > I had a look at the code you gave... It looked a little over complex, so I stripped a load of the code out and wound up with this: SELECT id, state, statename, company FROM HBMF Order by statename #statename# #company# One of the reasons your previous code may not have been working was because of the use of the start variable. By not specifying the scope of the variable and using to check the existance of the variable, you were probably winding up with a start variable in the 'variables' scope and one in the 'form' scope and looking at the 'variables' scope version rather than the one passed from the form. So what I've done is made sure that the start variable is properly referenced, by using form.start in the cfparam and for any other references. Hope this is a little clearer.

There is a 4k SQL limit that may be your problem, but there are ways to get around it. Also make sure that you aren't using IE for Mac.

RE: Time add
DateAdd works with any Date/Time object. To use DateAdd with time, just use the appropriate time specifier where you're used to using the date specifier. For example, DateAdd("H", 1, Now()). Jesse D.

RE: CV/Resume Project Descriptions
Hello Jamie. While I am not involved in HR, I have hired (and yes, fired) many people over the years. On a resume, you really don't want to "describe" your work, just your knowledge and accomplishments (which, when you are in school, may be just beginning). Use the resume to entice the prospective employer to contact you. You only have a few minutes to catch their attention. Pretty soon there is no way in heck you could list all your work, except as an addendum available on request. Make it functional, like: It should be bulleted if you are young, paragraphs as you get more accomplished. Ex. (beginning version) * Designed, managed and completed several campus-wide, dynamic, web-based applications (list available on request). * Familiar with Transact-SQL and PL/SQL on Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle. (this could go in a 'Skills' section at the end too) * Worked with departments to implement campus-wide support systems on the web. These are dynamic. Etc, etc. (this is the more accomplished version) Responsible for development and oversight of a 25 person engineering and development time covering a range of disciplines including yada, yada. As you get older (or rather grow in knowledge and accomplishments, you may be a 75 year old undergrad for all I know ;)) your resume will change. Keep it short, no more than one page. Focus a little on your schooling for now. That has consumed most of your time to date. Tell how you worked your way through school by doing this development. Ex: * 40% of tuition earned doing dynamic web development. Try not to use the word "I". Almost think in the 3rd person. Instead of: I have done this or that. Go with Have done this or that. Just some thoughts.

Tricky Password Question!
Hi people, I'm trying to solve this problem of generating a random password can anyone asisst? It goes like this... a user enters a unique Login ID which is checked against a Dbase. (select loginID, id2,index >From table 1 Where loginID = form.loginID Next, If loginID doesn't exist; Then carry out instructions to generate new Id2 = / composed of: random 3 characters = the digits 001 at the end. Insert this new Id2 along with the form.LoginID into the table to create new record. ELSE if LoginID exists: (or a number of reocords exists which belong to user with form.loginid: use the value of the last Id2 inserted in the table or the record with an Id2 value with the highest digit value i.e. if 2 records were inserted into the table xxx001, and xxx002, the latter id2 value of xxx002 will be used to generate the new Id2 value: so that it should be an increment of 1 or new Id2 value = xxx003 . Hence the new reocord will have the field values of: LoginID = Form.loginid, id2 = xxx003 Any suggestion. I'll post any which I can come up with also. Thanks. M. --- FREE!

Depending on the software and settings, you might be able to use a rollback function. Some databases can be commanded to rollback to a certain date, from what I understand. Check your documentation for rollback functions. The problem is that if you rollback you lose all changes since the time you rollback to. You may have to do some backups of current data to keep more recent changes. -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ 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.

Access to SQL
Hello fellow CF'ers We have upsized several of our Access databases to SQL 7 and they work great. While we are building the forms to update the database directly does anybody see any problems with running our updates from the Access to the SQL via standard SQL statements. For the time that's what we have been doing, but I was looking for some insight if there are any problems with this method. Right now we just upload the Access database to our Shared hosting space, then execute a template against it which pulls the data out and inserts, updates, or deletes it from our SQL space. Are there any hidden traps I should be worried about by doing this way not using the SQL scripts. Thanks.

You can give the datepart function negative numbers, so that it will subtract a period of time from your start date.

RE: Date subtraction
You can use negative values with the dateAdd() function to get dates from the past. Just specify dateAdd("d", -14, baseDate). -Kev > -Original Message- > From: Kevin Schmidt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, July 31, 2000 12:13 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Date subtraction > > > This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > > --=_NextPart_000_1637_01BFFAE0.554B4DC0 > Content-Type: text/plain; > charset="iso-8859-1" > Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable > > Is there a way to substract days from a date value similar to the = > dateAdd function in CF.

Re: Date subtraction
Use the DateAdd function as usual, just use a negative number (-1, -2) in the "add" place, that should do it :-) Gregory Harris Los Angeles ITA Dept.

RE: Date subtraction
How about adding a negative number of days? ;) Paul > -Original Message- > From: Kevin Schmidt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 31 July 2000 17:13 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Date subtraction > > > This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > > --=_NextPart_000_1637_01BFFAE0.554B4DC0 > Content-Type: text/plain; > charset="iso-8859-1" > Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable > > Is there a way to substract days from a date value similar to the = > dateAdd function in CF.
