Re: Is this a job for Verity?

[Kay Smoljak]

Thanks for all your suggestions.

I will look into the Verity links - thanks Joseph - but I may end up taking
Dick's suggestion and put the content into the db. It is created and edited
by the client in a custom-written Windows program, but now that I think
about it there's no reason why I can't read in the file when the program
uploads it and store the text in the db instead of just the filename. So
simple and it was right in front of my nose the whole time!

Would it not be easier, to hold the images in a seperate directory. Then
using the cfdirectory to build an array of images for your use. I
did something similar for a slide show on another project many years ago

That's awesome Ray. I had tried the DATEADD, since I felt it was more
elegant, but I used the PARSEDATE and just added or removed the TIMESPAN. 

I have included your code, but the only caveat I have is I still need to
have the dates formatted in "YY-MM-DD" since that is how I have named the
images and that is how they are called.

00-10-18Oct. 18, 2000
00-10-19Oct. 19, 2000
00-10-20Oct. 20, 2000
00-10-21Oct. 21, 2000
etc.

The DATEADD you wrote works great and I was able to streamline my code, but
the error still shows up for any dates above Jan. 1, 2001.

Jan 2 and Jan 3 give me odd output. It almost seems as if the DATEFORMAT on
the NEXTTOON and LASTTOON is being ignored. But the code seems to work for
all other dates.

Your problem is in the format of your date. You are using DD-MM-YY which,
when processed by the ParseDateTime() function views the date a MM-DD-YY.
You also should use DateAdd() rather than adding a number, such as a
TimeSpan to a date. I changed the date format in the code and simplified the
code. It now produces the correct date.

RE: format question ... an REReplace solution

[Brendan Avery]

The ParagraphFormat() function is pretty weak, since it doesn't generally 
put the  tags in the appropriate places (i.e. at the beginning of 
paragraphs...)

I suggest the following solution using regular expressions:

 ","ALL")#>

Although, to kill the header/trailing carriage-returns/spaces I would 
suggest trimming it like so:

 ","ALL")#>

Re: E-mail spooler not working

I looked in there and it doesn't show any activity whatsoever. I do have

I'm not sure that I understand the question but I may have an answer 
anyway. Would an offline browsing software program be able to do it? There 
are programs available that create offline browsing versions of sites. The 
one I've used doesn't handle forms (understandably) but if you can pass 
everything in a URL you might be able to pull this off with an offline 
browser. Assuming I understand what you want to do. I've made 
offline-browsable catalog with this kind of software before and it handles 
URL variables very nicely.

CF vs. Lotus Domino App Server

[Chasmo]

Hi All;

I recently built a prototype B2B project-management app for a 
client in CF. He's now in his first round of funding and is getting all 
kinds of "suggestions," the most prominent being that the actual 
release be built with Domino App Server. 

Does anyone have any knowledge of how the two app servers 
compare, or possibly a good Web link on Domino's tech stuff? I 
checked with the standard Lotus sites, but only get the standard 
industry speak ("robust, extendable platform," "leverage your 
business" blah blah).

Many thanks,

Chasmo

I'm not saying that anything is wrong with the developer or whatnot either. 
I'm just saying that if you sell something you need to back it up and my 
first impression was that it wasn't backed up. Documentation is really hard 
for programmers to write-- that's why there are people whose only job is to 
write documentation. But if people can't even get your product set up, you 
need to help them. That's what I'm saying. Clearly there is another level 
of tech support necessary for this product since it allows you to make 
modifications and stuff but that doesn't seem to be what you need.

http://www.iautomated.com/store/default.cfm?iid=13 at the bottom there is a 
"Technical Support Info." button. Unfortunately it is a form input and 
submits to the next page so it's a issue to link to the next page.

Have you looked at the FAQ?

Yes, but there are other solutions to that problem, like creating better 
documentation or making the install process easier.

It seems not. I just looked around in their support department and I didn't 
see anything there that would let you do it. There is another form but it 
apparently doesn't submit to a person who can help you. Try sending an 
email to the info address listed at the bottom of the site: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

But here is the text of the page I was talking about:

CF_HTMLAREA_ONE WYSIWYG html form tag,
   single domain version

   Technical Support Info.

   Support is a crucial element of any 
software product.
   Internet Automated recognizes this, and 
we will always
   strive to provide the most timely and 
accurate support
   possible.  Preference is given to users 
who have purchased
   technical support, but we will also 
answer owners of our
   software who have not purchased support, 
as time permits.

   Email support of this software extends 
to the developer
   only.  Base support includes only errors 
involved in
   deploying our software product in a 
local application.

   Responses to technical support requests 
are normally
   made within 1 business day, allowing for 
time zone
   differences (based upon North American 
Pacific Coast
   time).

   Base support does not include the following:

  1.questions regarding the software 
code or modification
thereof
  2.errors involved in deploying our 
software product in a
distributed application
  3.under no circumstance is support 
extended to the users
of software developed using our 
products.  The
developer is responsible for all 
end-user support, and
in no case will Internet Automated 
Inc. or its supporting
agents respond to technical support 
requests beyond

RE: Calling another page

[Dylan Bromby]

you can see hidden fields in the source as well as the NAME values for all
field elements. you could still do a POST or GET passing in FORM values.

i'm curious, can someone post the limitations of using HTTP_REFERER? i don't
just mean a casual "not all browsers support it". i'd like to see if
someone's got this documented. once you take multple versions of Netscape
and IE into account, is there any ONE browser that holds greater than 1%
market share? or 2%? for me, my clients' web stats show that over 99% of
their sites are accessed my Netscape or IE.

  Why not just enclose the whole page in an if statement?  Make sure you
name
your submit button something unique.

 
   Your code here

You got to this page in error.


  You could do this with any field on the form, it doesn't have to be the
submit
button.  Perhaps a hidden field, entitled 'FormName' with the value A?

   If anyone wants to jump in with a way to check the name of the form on
the
submitting page, now would be the time.  I've seen it accessed (via
javascript)
on the current page, but never on the page it submits to.

Re: Calling another page

[Jeffry Houser]

  Why not just enclose the whole page in an if statement?  Make sure you name
your submit button something unique.

 
   Your code here

You got to this page in error.


  You could do this with any field on the form, it doesn't have to be the submit
button.  Perhaps a hidden field, entitled 'FormName' with the value A?

   If anyone wants to jump in with a way to check the name of the form on the
submitting page, now would be the time.  I've seen it accessed (via javascript)
on the current page, but never on the page it submits to.

RE: format question

But doesn't that one pick up blank lines and insert  tags where it finds 
blank lines? This example doesn't have a blank line between the text, only 
a single carriage return.

RE: Anybody using interested in helping?

[Paul Sinclair]

Jennifer,

I am not suggesting by anything that I said that there is anything wrong
with the product or its developer and I certainly don't want anyone to infer
that from my message. I'm just hoping someone can help me out getting things
set up properly. I suspect that there is something easy that I am
overlooking - at least I hope that is the case.

> At any rate, go back to the

Not sure where you are looking. There is indeed a tech support form at
http://www.iautomated.com/support/forms/support.cfm . But you have to enter
your product license or support subscription key. If you did not purchase a
support subscription with your product, you have to purchase a separate
support subscription. Entering a product license key that was purchased
without the support option just returns the same form saying "support
subscription not found" (or something of that nature).

I know from experience that providing free support with even the simplest of
apps can just absolutely chew up a developers' time (and therefore profit).
So I am not arguing with the right of the developer to charge for support.

Thanks very much for your note! Maybe there is another support form on the
site that I have overlooked that does allow me to get a few simple questions
answered?

Best regards,
Paul Sinclair

RE: Email links lost

[Jennifer]

Wh boy. This is definitely entertaining if nothing else. ;)

My email client interpreted this message as HTML. So just to be happy, I'll 
be replacing some brackets with their special character equivalent. Just to 
make sure you can see it.

So for each email you should have something like (except that you'd have < 
instead of < and you'd have > instead of >):

 
 
 some html message here
 
 


Subsequent messages in the same file should look the same. Don't worry that 
you have multiple body tags in the file-- ColdFusion server will take all 
that out and only the HTML and BODY tags outside CFMAIL will be sent to the 
browser.

  I'm sort of jumping into the middle of a conversation here, so excuse me if this
is off topic.

  There are many times when a page should not be generated from a database.
The most common example I can give our the 'legal' section of a site.  Once the
lawyer is done with those documents, they'll be changed rarely, if at all.  Why does
this group of pages need to be dynamically generated out of the database if it
never changes?  What benefit does the database offer it?  I believe the answer is no
benefit.

   It can benefit from being dynamic (not database driven).  By using includes
as the 'navigation bar' and header/footer you don't have to manually change the
page each time you add a new navigation item or modify the graphic layout.

First this made me really irritated. It seems fraudulent that a company 
would provide poor documentation for a purchased product and charge you 
extra for tech support if you couldn't get it set up unless you knew about 
the bad documentation ahead of time-- especially since buying tech support 
at this point is more expensive that the actual software. This totally rubs 
me the wrong way and frankly, it seems deliberate to me (although I realize 
that I'm paranoid about these things).

However, upon viewing their website I have discovered that they actually do 
provide free tech support for people who have not purchased the support 
plan. You aren't guaranteed an answer and people who have purchased support 
do get priority, but your problem is probably normal.

However, I really wish they weren't passing the navigation through form 
variables in forms that have the same target so I could easily send you a 
link to the page that contains this info. At any rate, go back to the 
product page on their site and hit the "Technical Support Info." button 
near the bottom.

You mean, make sure no one happens to wander over to page B by typing in the

Hello,

I noticed that VirtualScape is now under the umbrella of HostCentric. Both
sites offer same rates, but HostCentric's site is more informative. Are
there any reasons to choose HostCentric over VirtualScape (of which all
heard good things). This is for a dedicated server in NYC.

Thanks

Hey
Folks,

Is this the Dreaded DLLHost Issue?...


We are having the same problem,  first we thought is was code or a bad DLL,
then we thought it was the MDAC(Lots of problems if you have a bad data
driver). Now after reading this thread,  we have downloaded the SP2 again
and will reinstall.

We are running a Dual Pentium3 Server Gig o Ram  CF 4.5.1 SP2  IIS  nothing
else!

Should Fly,  but chokes instead.

Any thoughts on the MDAC

Just as a little bit of "Further Information", I've been watching the CPU
usage this afternoon (via Task Manager) and about 90-95% of the time
(including "busy periods") it stays below 50% utilisation, it's just at
certain points it hit 100% for a couple of seconds and then (usually) drops
back down again, it's just it occasionally it hits 100% and stays there
permanently...

The other servers seem to "never" go over the 50% mark...

Re: Server at 100% problem

[Angel Stewart]

I've had this problem myself.
The only solution I found was to start and stop the CF service.
This problem occurred using MS Access databases at the datasources.

I never found the true cause, or the solution to the problem, but I believe
limiting the amount of concurrent users helped. I haven't had the problem
since, but I also made code changes to sort out another issue around the
same time...so I can't say in particular which change/changes removed the
problem.

The changes were varied, from moving from a CFTABLE output, to a CFGRID, to
introducing CFLOCK statements for certain requests, to adding and removing a
field from the underlying tables

Right, but apparently it needs  tags and  tags 
between the CFMail tags. If the content isn't in  tags, the 
email client won't necessarily recognize it as an HTML document and 
therefore won't interpret it as such. That could cause your problem. If the 
non-working Outlook clients have different settings that could cause a 
problem then too.

I've made HTML messages with CFMail and had them work in Netscape. I know 
it can be done. It seems that your message is being interpreted by the 
client as plain text, which it will do automatically if it doesn't know 
better. If the code is indented (as one would expect of HTML or other code) 
this indentation will show up in a plain text email.

Anybody using interested in helping?

[Paul Sinclair]

I purchased the single domain version of htmlarea_one from
www.iautomated.com and am having problems getting it configured and working
in forms. I made the mistake of not purchasing the support option
(additional $50.00) since I figured this was an easy piece to configure. I
am getting all sorts of errors and rather than spend $100 now (price of
support doubles if not purchased with the product) I thought I would first
check to see if anyone here on the list has used this and ran into the same
problems I am having.

I am not running down the product - I'm sure once it is configured it will
perform as advertised. But the configuration/setup instructions could use
some tweaking.

If anyone is using this tag successfully, I'd love to run a few of my issues
by you. Send mail offlist unless deemed to be suitable for list discussion.

Regards,
Paul Sinclair

Re: Email links lost

[Cami Lawson]

Actually it is just a composed email within the CF file in a CFEMAIL with
type=HTML.  Like I said, it works great most of the time, but there are
those times that it just looks ugly.  I have since stripped the HTML tags
out and most the email software interprets the http://www.something.com as a
link without the tags.  For pretty purposes I may leave it like that and
those who don't get the link will have to cut and paste until I figure out
how to make everyone happy.

Re: Email links lost

[Jennifer]

Is the message itself a full HTML document? I just checked some HTML email 
that works in both Netscape and Eudora and it contains full HTML headers, 
body tags and all that stuff. The viewable content is all inside a table 
and it could be that the table is indented, but I can't tell since 
everything would be indented.

I've done both on the same web site:

Supplier & Product Listings:


No cfml or html in the db, all formatting and markup provided bt the 
CF program which retrieves and presents the data,

News and Article listings:
-

Storing markup (html) in the db as part of the content offers the 
most flexibility especially if you have tables, lists images.

Here, you might use a combination approach:

   intermixed markup and data for most of the text

   placeholders in the text for images (where the images URLs and and
   characteristics are in he db.

   The program substitutes the URL & size oarams for the placeholders

You might take the same approach for other db fields (Title, Author, etc.)

OT: SQL Help

[Todd Ashworth]

Sorry about posting this to the wrong list, but I'm having trouble getting
mail through to the SQL list.

I am running a query to see if there is an entry in the database for an
event that matches certain date criteria.  One of the criteria is that one
of the dates that the event is scheduled on does not fall within a certain
list of dates that are stored in the "exception_dates" table.

All of the query works except for:  AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM
exception_dates ed
WHERE
ed.exception_dates = '#year#-#month#-#week_day# 00:00:00'))

The way it should work is only return a record if there is no instance of
the current year-month-day matching anything in the exception_dates table.

Here is the whole query:

SELECT 1 FROM dummy WHERE EXISTS
  (SELECT 1 FROM teacher_schedule ts
   WHERE ts.contact_id = #Request.TempContactID#
   AND '#year#-#month#-#week_day#' BETWEEN ts.start_date AND
ts.end_date

ts.end_time_2)

'#DayOfWeekAsString(week_day)#'
  AND NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1

WHERE
ed.exception_dates = '#year#-#month#-#week_day# 00:00:00'))

Re: Deserialize array from wddx packet

Hi Laura,
I played around with your code and made a few changes , the following code
works for me:

In the form page:




   
   








In the action page:












#ArrayLen(month)#




#month[x]#



The changes I made is:
1. put a  around the hidden field.
2. moth is a one diamension array so should be referenced like month[x] not
month[ ][ ].
3. Remove the htmlformat() function in the hidden field's value. If you put
it back I got an error just like you got "unknown element encountered".

Hope this helps

Happy New Year everyone!

I have a page where I need to pass 12 arrays (one for each month of the
year) to another page.  I have never used arrays with wddx before so I'm
testing using just one array, for simplicity.  The serialization piece is
working.  The problem is with the deserialization.  This error message

This continues since there are 36 elements to the array, but I think you
get
the idea.

working
on this for a while and I'm getting a headache!  What a way to start the

year.  Thanks in advance.

Not according to the documentation.  "Y" in DateFormat() gives 
"year as last two digits with no leading zero for years less 
than 10", so it should be 1 all this year.

I think what you want is DatePart("y", Now()).

RE: Julian Date

[Adrian Cesana]

Yep your sure correct about that, I looked up the formatting info in Bens
CF4.0 Book Page 879, says it should be "Day Of Year" I guess thats incorrect
or was changed in 4.01.  Now looking in the CFML refrence I see "Y" is a
single digit for year, which makes more sense.  I guess I need
"DayOfYear(date)" function.

Thanks.

Re: Email links lost

[Billy Cravens]

That's why I avoid HTML formatted email.  There's really no standardized
way of handling HTML email.  Not to mention that some strange ppl in
this world (including myself) like to turn HTML off.  First of all, I'd
recommend giving the user the choice of plain text or HTML. 
Additionally, I'd research the primary email clients (including web
based): Outlook, Netscape, Outlook Express, Eudora, Hotmail, Yahoo!,
etc. and find out how they handle things.  Give the user a drop down to
select their client from, and conditionally output your mail per their
client.  Of course, you'll need to have a default way of displaying.

You would not gain many of the advantages of dynamic content if the

The site performed better as a whole because of CF's caching of queries...

Because of a high incidence of the same query being issued by many 
visitors, visitors after the first performed better.

As the site traffic increased, the site tended to perform better 
(greater probability of a query being in the cache)

Re: Email links lost

[Cami Lawson]

All the tag information appears to be correct.  Myself and some others are
using MS Outlook Express 5 and the links appear ok, others are using the
same thing and they see the html code.  Still yet others using prodigy and
netscape get the words indented and the html tags visible.  I have tried
leaving the HTML type and removing the href and just putting
http://www.something.com and it works on some and won't on others.  Right
now I'm working on the majority rule but some higher ups want their cake and
eat it too.

CFAPPLICATION confusion

[Peter Benoit]

Doing my first login application using CFAPPLICATION, and it seems to work
fine except for one thing... the user closes the browser and the application
doesn't end.  If the user logs out or times out the application will end,
but not if they close the browser window.  What can I do about this?

thanks,
pete

RE: Adding and removing dates. Y21K compliant?

[Barry Smith]

That's awesome Ray. I had tried the DATEADD, since I felt it was more
elegant, but I used the PARSEDATE and just added or removed the TIMESPAN. 

I have included your code, but the only caveat I have is I still need to
have the dates formatted in "YY-MM-DD" since that is how I have named the
images and that is how they are called.

00-10-18Oct. 18, 2000
00-10-19Oct. 19, 2000
00-10-20Oct. 20, 2000
00-10-21Oct. 21, 2000
etc.

The DATEADD you wrote works great and I was able to streamline my code, but
the error still shows up for any dates above Jan. 1, 2001.

Jan 2 and Jan 3 give me odd output. It almost seems as if the DATEFORMAT on
the NEXTTOON and LASTTOON is being ignored. But the code seems to work for
all other dates.

Your problem is in the format of your date. You are using DD-MM-YY which,
when processed by the ParseDateTime() function views the date a MM-DD-YY.
You also should use DateAdd() rather than adding a number, such as a
TimeSpan to a date. I changed the date format in the code and simplified the
code. It now produces the correct date.

I hope this doesn't sound patronizing, but you did put the link in proper 
HTML link tags, right? Some HTML-enabled email clients (like Eudora) 
recognize URLs and treat them as links, even if they don't have link tags. 
If you do have the links between  tags send us some 
information about how different email clients handle the issue.

RE: load-balancing (using radware solutions and cold-fusion)

[Kurt Ward]

We use a different load balancing system, but this could still be an
idea to consider:

We have 3 Apache/CF servers that share a common file server for the website
content/templates. This would eliminate the need for the replication between
web servers (which I would not do in CF either) although you would probably
want a failover file server with replicated data.  It also makes it easier
if you need to add another web server to the farm.

Subject: load-balancing (using radware solutions and cold-fusion)


Hi,

I'm trying to set up a load-balancing solution based on Radware Web Server
Director and Radware Fireproof with Cold-Fusion.
I need to identify what I have to replicate (files, directories of my
application ) on every servers when an update is done by the application on
one server.
My biggest problem is that I have to do in CF an application that
synchonizes the content (files, directories) of each servers.
If a server is down and the synchronization cannot be done, I had to log it
and do it later.

Did anyone already do this ? Cause I'm not sure it's reliable or even
feasible in cold fusion.

Thanks

RE: Custom Tag for creating Forms...

[Peter Theobald]

So the real trick is making it extensible so you can use it to lay out a "basic 
default" form, but override certain things to customize it.

The design I had worked out didn't assume you only had one field per row. It let you 
put as many fields as you liked in a row. It would add up the number of fields on each 
row, multiply them all for a "common" denominator, and use that as the number of 
columns in a table. Each table cell would use rowspan to use up the appropriate space. 
Everything would come out neat and lined up...

I hadn't gotten to field validation yet when I put it aside...

Email links lost

[Cami Lawson]

I am sending out emails for different things and all have web links in them.  I was 
just wondering if anyone has had problems with emails sent from CF not properly 
identifying web address links when received by the recipient.  Is there something to 
handle the different types of email readers or is it just take a shot at the most used 
and pray for the best with the rest.

I'm using type=HTML  and some of the emails show all the html tags, some have the text 
but the url is not a link, while others are just fine.

TIA,

cami
