Re: Application.cfm inheritence

2000-11-25 Thread Jeffry Houser


  Functional solution  I would prefer to see the settings 
separated out as their own includes, instead of just including 
the parent.  It would give you more control.

 Just cfinclude the parent application.cfm into the child one.
 
 cfinclude template = "../Application.cfm"

  Hello,
 
 
  Will a "child" application.cfm inherit variables, settings, etc from the
  parent application.cfm?
 
  For example:
 
 
  +Root Dir
  |application.cfm
  +---Some Subdir
  |   applicaiton.cfm(2)
 
 
  will application.cfm(2) be able to get the settings from application.cfm?

Structures: Where is data kept

2000-11-25 Thread Paul Sinclair

Once a structure has been created and populated, where is the data kept? I
can't find it in the registry anywhere but it persists across server reboots
so it is obviously somewhere in the machine. If I need to get at it to move
it to a different server, where do I go to get it?

Saved Searches Cron Job E-mail Results

2000-11-25 Thread webmaster


I am creating a site that allows real estate buyers to search
our database of homes for sale.

I would like to have the search parameters saved and then have
the search continue to run again at a later date automatically
and if there are new results, e-mail a hyperlink to the new results
to the person that initially did the search .

We have limited search parameters (area  price), so this shouldn't
be that intricate I would imagine.

Do any of you know of any way I can accomplish this with CF?
 I have done this with PERL, but it was like a TON of code.

RE: CFINCLUDE woes

2000-11-25 Thread aidan . whitehall

 Still new to CF so forgive me if this question seems sort of 
 retarded... I am trying to use CFINCLUDE in my site to include my left 
[ snip]
 Is CFINCLUDE meant to be used this way or do I have to replicate the
 includes directory inside every sub directory of my site?


Skimmed your post, but hope this helps.

In the "Application.cfm" file, I create two application (or request)
variables like this:

CFPARAM NAME="application.WebserverMapping" DEFAULT="/"
CFPARAM NAME="application.ColdFusionMapping" DEFAULT="/thisapp/"

Then in the CF Administrator, add a ColdFusion mapping for just that one
site of "/thisapp/" to whatever the root directory of that website is
(obviously if you don't have access to the Administrator or can't ask for
this, this one's a no go).

Whenever you write a link to an other page on your site, do it like this:

A HREF="#application.WebserverMapping#login/index.cfm"Login!/A

and submit FORMs like this

FORM ACTION="#application.WebserverMapping#somedir/subdir/mailform.cfm"
METHOD="post"

and if you want to reference a CFINCLUDE or CFMODULE, you can do this:

CFINCLUDE
TEMPLATE="#application.ColdFusionMapping#includes/GetCountries.cfm"


Works like a charm.

You can even move an entire application into the subdirectory of another...
all you need to do is alter the two application or request variables, update
CF Admin and you're good to go.

I don't think I've built a site that uses relative (../) style references in
ages since I was shown this method. All of them take the root directory of
the site as the starting point.


One slight drawback... this method isn't quite so good if you the type who
changes directory names every five minutes.

Mind you, searching and replacing on
#application.WeberserverMapping#somedir/ within a project isn't really that
difficult.


BTW, when you develop you're site on a local box, you have to change
127.0.0.1 in your webserver (PWS, Apache or whatever) to point to the root
directory of the site you are working on and change it every time you switch
projects.

RE: Order of variable scope checking

2000-11-25 Thread aidan . whitehall

 This is the order in which CF evaluates variables if they 
 aren't scoped.
 
 1.  Local vars created using CFSET and CFQUERY
 2.  CGI vars
 3.  File vars
 4.  URL vars
 5.  Form
 6.  Cookies
 7.  Client

I thought the query scope was a scope in it's own right. Are they really
just local variables with a different prefix (ie the name of your query)?

Inserting HTML Anchor into Oracle

2000-11-25 Thread Joseph J. Sanger, M.D.

I am trying to insert a record with the following text into Oracle:

CFSET MyLink='A HREF="TheLink"SomeText/A'

with the following CF statement:

INSERT INTO MyTable (Link) VALUES (#MyLink#);

The code executes without an error message, but no insertion occurs. 
With debugging turned on, I can see the insert statement ... it looks 
fine, and if I copy and paste it directly into SQL*Plus, it actually 
DOES the insert without a burp.

So there is something that CF doesn't like about the #MyLink# 
contents ... I suspect it is related to the double quotes or the  
or  characters.  Can anyone help?  Thanks ... I have been stuck on 
this for hours

RE: Structures: Where is data kept

2000-11-25 Thread James McCullough

Strucures are stored in memory so it seems odd that they persist over a
reboot unless you check for their existence and create them if they don't
exist. Otherwise you need to run a script to load them upon reboot.

However client variables(CFID and CFTOKEN) are stored in a structure and the
default storage area is the system registry. You may choose to store them in
a database by changing the settings in the CF admiin. Therefore client
variables are persistent over a reboot.

Session variables are stored in memory in a structure but are destroyed upon
reboot or upon the user closing the browser.

All of the objects in a structure cannot be stored in a database as is.
(Neither can an array) You may use WDDX to serialize them into a packet and
store that in a database field because the result is a string. You may do
the same with an array. To rebuild the structure, pull the packet out of the
database and then serialize it into the structure. This is a good way to
build a clusterable application that uses client variables or other
structures for setting user preferences.

HTH

They don't. If you want to persist session data beyond the length of an
individual session, you'll have to write code to store the data in a
database, and retrieve it when the user returns.

RE: Dynamic Graphing - Spider Graphs

2000-11-25 Thread Dave Watts

 Does anyone know of an application that dynamically creates 
 Spider Graphs / Rader Graphs like the one in the attached file.
 
 Appreciate any help as i have hunted high and low on the 
 NETno joy every other type but not Spider/ Radar.

I seem to recall ChartFX doing these types of graphs. It's a COM object, but
it works fine from CF:

Cheers Dave,

Thats a great little tool.
It does exactly what we want and it also does surface charts as well.

Its great when you come across a bonus like that.

Has anyone else used ChartFX?

Re: Structures: Where is data kept

2000-11-25 Thread Bill Davidson

I'm not a CF-internals expert, but is it possible the CFID and CFTOKEN are
being kept in some way and therefore the session variables are persisting in
this case?  Either the cookies are not expiring themselves, or perhaps they
are being passed in the URL from a cached request in the history of the
browser?

Just a thought (or two..)

 You know they don't and I know they don't, but earlier in
 this thread the gentleman said they where making it across
 "reboots".  The only thing that would explain that is if the
 data was being held in a cookie.  Now I guess the question
 is which machine is he talking about the reboot on.  If it's
 the Client machine, then it makes perfect sense as the
 cookies are like David Watts pointed out the CFID and
 CFTOKEN which act as pointers to the session stored in the
 memory on the server.  However if he was talking about the
 server being rebooted then there is something else that is
 not being brought into this thread.  That is all I was
 meaning.

Re: Form Help

2000-11-25 Thread Justin Scott

  How about just cfif Attributes.Json IS "on"/cfif (the "IS" test
isn't
 a
  case-sensitive test).
  :-)

 I read a while back that compareNoCase is a faster way of comparing
strings
 than using IS...

Correct.  Since CompareNoCase() is a boolean expression, it supposedly
executes faster than a string expression like IS.  From what I understand,
this is true for all boolean vs. string comparisons.  I do use
CompareNoCase() over IS myself, but I have found that it's not the most
"user-friendly" code and tends to confuse the heck out of the newer codings
because you have to use a NOT modifier in order to test for a true boolean
condition.  So...

CFIF NOT CompareNoCase(Attributes.Json, "on")

...may be faster, but...

CFIF Attributes.Json IS "on"

...is the more intuative approach and doesn't confuse the heck out of people
(also takes less time to type).  It all depends on how your application
needs to work I guess.  If you have a lot of load, or you're looping over
thousands of lines (see below) and need to cram every last millisecond of
performance out of CF, the CompareNoCase() may be better, but if you need
the app done yesterday, and there's the possibility of a newer coder working
on it in the future, it may be worth the slight performance drop to use the
IS comparison.

Just as a reference, I tested the two methods on my Compaq 1850r server,
which has a single PII-400 processor.

The first code sample..

CFSET Variables.DS = "this"
CFLOOP FROM="1" TO="5000" INDEX="key"
 CFIF Variables.DS IS "this" /CFIF
/CFLOOP

..took an average of 1265 milliseconds to complete according to the
debugging info.  The second sample..

CFSET Variables.DS = "this"
CFLOOP FROM="1" TO="5000" INDEX="key"
 CFIF NOT CompareNoCase(Variables.DS, "this") /CFIF
/CFLOOP

..averaged 453 milliseconds.  So, it would appear that using the boolean
operator really IS faster, and that whatever it is that the previous poster
mentioned was correct.

PS: Sorry about the crosspost on CF-Talk.  It was a good thread on the
fusebox list and I thought it would benefit the "rookie" developers on the
list since they probably never thought about this kind of stuff.  I know I
never did until about 8 months ago g.

Just not sure about the syntax to use to compare according to the url.
Tried cfif URL is "xyz"xyz/cfif  But did not work.  I thought it would

RE: Dave Watts please read - Re: BLOCKFACTOR and MAXROWS

2000-11-25 Thread Raymond K. Camden

Here's a follow up question. Imagine a situation where you pass a list of
IDs to a query. You know that the query will only return, at most, the same
# of rows as IDs. Taking the same kind of query, where the amount of bytes
returned per row divided into the buffers size would tell us to use 100 for
blockfactor, would you still use 100 if the # of IDs was  100?

  How large are buffers set to?  I often use
  BLOCKFACTOR=100 in a query where I:
 
  SELECT ID FROM foo WHERE bar
 
  Is this setting a large buffer?

 The size of the buffer will depend on the maximum size of a returned row.
 Given that you're using a field called "ID", which is probably an integer,
 your maximum row size will be 4 bytes. One hundred rows of 4
 bytes each will
 take 400 bytes, which will be a small fraction of the maximum
 buffer size of
 32,768 bytes.
