RE: Slightly OT: CF in Europe
Well this is a completely subjective view but my perception is that CF is considered quite a hot technology here in the UK. I don't know, but I believe the relative strength of CF versus ASP is stronger in the US than in Europe because a lot of people in the US started building web apps before ASP came out or was usable. By the time the UK got started, ASP was a viable option, and no-one ever got fired for buying Microsoft products, as they used to say of IBM. Allaire's reputation for quality doesn't seem to be perfect, but then neither is Microsoft's. Maybe PHP is popular in Europe because it was invented here is largely developed here. But I think decent-sized organisations here tend to steer clear of open source - Apache being something of an exception. They don't trust it. They also like standards. I think that's CF's weakest point from a marketing point of view is that it's seen as a proprietary, closed solution. I believe CF's move to Java will be a big help in this respect. I worked for one company that moved from PHP to Java because they saw Java as a standard.

But Netscape is really peculiar with tables I know - if they aren't just right you will get an empty page as you are describing. Could be the missing body/body tagset. Just so you know - you don't put body tags around a frameset as they're, well, frames... The body tag goes within the noframes tag, but shouldn't ever go around a frameset Oh, and NS is very picky about start and end tags, so if you mis-spell an end tag then the page probably won't display (especially true if you don't close a /td, /tr or /table) Philip Arnold Director Certified ColdFusion Developer ASP Multimedia Limited T: +44 (0)20 8680 1133 "Websites for the real world" ** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

RE: deleting session variables
We do have one reason for not using session vars.
Clustering.
It takes out the need to worry about the variables being held in memory.

Subject: RE: deleting session variables
On first impression using client and session in the same app
could be viable if;
1. client requires accessing client storage while session
"stays within" the CFAS memory space.
2. if there are vars that need to persist after a session
and that are useful to have readily available for a next
session
3. assuming session is faster than client {1]
On second impression the question needs to be answered
whether once client are read if the values also reside
in the CAFS memory space - if so, for how long, and
how granular is the rentention - i.e. assuming storage is
in a db, does one read of any client's vars cause all
client's vars to persist in memory or is the clientmanagement
selective to retrieving just the particular client vars
relative to that client's current session/http request?
If every reference to a client var causes a db read or write,
then I would say that the only reason to mix client and session
is to initialize a client session with client vars, but run the
session with session vars.
I doubt that client vars are kept in memory for a defined timeout
period (or any other undocumented timeout period other than
possibly applicationtimeout) like session vars so each reference
to a client var will cause a db write or read. That has to mean
session vars, once set, are faster.
I can see an app organized so that upon logIn client vars
in storage are used to intialize the current session, then
these values are moved into a session layer for speed with
any subsequent client value assignments done only for the
purpose of preserving values that need to persist past the
end of the current session.
I would appreciate any clarification of any of this thinking.
(above is not meant to cover clustering issues and assumes
no design inhibitions due to ram constraints)
Client variables are kept in memory for the duration of the page request.
They're retrieved from the repository for every subsequent page request
(except when they're stored in cookies - there's no retrieval required then,
since the browser simply returns them to the server).
As for using Client variables for initialization of values, I'd argue that
you'd be better off retrieving values from a normalized database structure
(where they usually are anyway for most applications) to populate Session
variables.

The timing is certainly one contribution, but there are a lot more "cowboys" and "entpreneurs" in the USA who don't insist on buying only "safe" products. In Europe, the entire culture, across countries, is a bureaucratic, standardized, politicized mentality, seeking at all costs (extremely high, eg, the EC machinery of fraud and waster) to avoid the tiniest risk or non-compliance, and if the product is not 100% "safe" (ie, it's not an MS product for an MS strategic platform), the product, eg CF, is seen as too risky. Is this a conscious orientation? No of course not. It's like asking fish is they are conscious if water.

RE: Slightly OT: CF in Europe
I would agree with Paul here. Financially, CF is extremely lucrative in the UK with rates around 30% higher than ASP. The reasons are quite simply that ASP is more popular, but anybody that used to do VB now does ASP, so the market may be bigger, but so is the recruitment base. This has made ASP consultants cheaper to acquire. This is also a reason why people use ASP. Europe has been very MS orientated. If you are already developing using Visual Studio, you business might as well continue down that development path. What it doesn't recognise is that CF is inherently faster to develop for (so I have found) and provides a lot of functionality that you have to write/purchase yourself for ASP. Then again, try persuading business people to shell out for Spectra. Not easy...they cannot see the application development benefits. One thing though...there is a severe lack of GOOD CF developers in the UK. It's amazing the number of people that attempt to blag it. If I interview, I use a simple questionaire that I walk through with the potential...sometimes it really is quite embarrassing.

If I interview, I use a simple questionaire that I walk through with the potential...sometimes it really is quite embarrassing. I have to agree with this. There are lots and lots and lots of developers who try to blag it. I have come across many of them and worked for some. I have worked with developers who have come from HTML (and maybe a little Javascript), and think that doing the Allaire FastTrack to ColdFusion course (ie not the advanced course) means know ColdFusion back to front. WRONG!!! They also don't know anything about mailing lists and the community of developers which in the Unix/Linux (esp. OpenSource) world is understood and used to it's full potential. It really does amaze me sometimes how incredibly naive some people are! IMHO the most important thing is to know why you do something and what is happening in the background (something a *nix person would have a massive headstart on). An example would be the CFHTTP tag. Not understanding HTTP and it's little intricacies can catch out some normal programmers, but as CF is such an abstracted language (ie it simplifies everything) - sometimes to abstracted - some programmers can get caught out. Works well most of the time, but can be a right (insert favourite expletive here) to debug if you don't understand what's actually going on. Paul PS A potential developer questionnaire like that could well catch out a lot of people. PPS Most *nix people love to do everything from the ground up. I don't advocate this but I do think it is useful to be able to understand why things are done in certain ways. If it's already built, use that and modify it. Programmers who are keen to build programmes from the ground up all the time waste huge amounts of time (IMHO) however, it can be very useful in the long run.

Depends on the price point. If you're truly talking Peach Tree or Quickbooks, no. If price is not the main concern, you might check out Sage Software's Acuity.

RE: datasource question
The hostname is actually the datasource name. This is usually chosen by the hosting company so you will need to contact them and ask them what the datasource name is. You will also want to check and verify that you are using username and password. In any case when you've figured it out, your CFQUERY tag will look something like this: cfset Username="MyUsername" cfset Password="PaSsw0rD" cfset Datasource="MyDatasourceName" cfquery name="members" datasource"#Datasource#" username="#Username#" password="#Password#" /cfquery Some ColdFusion hosts will set it up in a manner that you will not need to provide the username/password in each of your CFQUERY tags. This is dependent on the ColdFusion host so you should check with them to see if this is the case. Benjamin S.

RE: Slightly OT: CF in Europe
And what makes Java less proprietary than C++? Last I heard, Sun pulled it from the standards committee. Suggesting that Java would be opened up, was one maneuver in Sun's marketing campaign to regain market share lost to Open Source alternatives to their products: http://www.wired.com/news/topstories/0,1287,19413,00.html In fact, if the language that your application server was written in had anything to do with the "openness" of the application server, being written in C++ would make ColdFusion far more open. But, of course, the language the server is written in has little to nothing to do with the openness of the server itself. Benjamin S. Rogers Web Developer, c4.net voice: (508) 240-0051 fax: (508) 240-0057 -Original Message- From: DeVoil, Nick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 08, 2001 4:59 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Slightly OT: CF in Europe Well this is a completely subjective view but my perception is that CF is considered quite a hot technology here in the UK. I don't know, but I believe the relative strength of CF versus ASP is stronger in the US than in Europe because a lot of people in the US started building web apps before ASP came out or was usable. By the time the UK got started, ASP was a viable option, and no-one ever got fired for buying Microsoft products, as they used to say of IBM. Allaire's reputation for quality doesn't seem to be perfect, but then neither is Microsoft's. Maybe PHP is popular in Europe because it was invented here is largely developed here. But I think decent-sized organisations here tend to steer clear of open source - Apache being something of an exception. They don't trust it. They also like standards. I think that's CF's weakest point from a marketing point of view is that it's seen as a proprietary, closed solution. I believe CF's move to Java will be a big help in this respect.

Re: Search Engines Dynamic Sites - Best Course

using foo/1/foo2/2 instead of foo=1foo2=2
Hey Guys: I am running IIS 5.0/4.0 web servers and I would like to use a backslash to seperate my var names/values.

RE: Using .xls datasource
Can someone point me in the right direction to find information on using an Excel file as a CF datasource? I've got a highly formatted Excel spreadsheet that my client would like to be able to add/update/delete lines through his browser. OK, a few of quick pointers; Table names are strange to call - [$tableName] (or maybe the other way round) Column names MUST be supplied Columns types are decided at the opening of the table - thus if Excel decides that it's a Text field, then all numeric types are ignored (and the other way round) Once ODBC gets hold of an Excel sheet, it won't let go - CF needs to be stopped and started to release the file I would suggest running it via an Access Link table, it means you can down/up load the file as you require Philip Arnold Director Certified ColdFusion Developer ASP Multimedia Limited T: +44 (0)20 8680 1133 "Websites for the real world" ** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

RE: remote server response
Jennifer, I'm finishing up a CFX tag that will do what you need. Right now what you can do is write a script that will parse through your templates extracting out http, ftp, or mailto: tags. You can dump these into a table then as a scheduled task you could cfx_http to the address to get the response code from the server, then not show the link if it returns anything other than 200 and send you an email to let you know.

I'm setting up some pages that are going to have links to external sites. I know how bad it looks to have broken links so I'd like to check the links on a schedule and remove any links that are broken. I'll still get some broken inks but it's better than using up my server resources checking links every time a page loads. At any rate, I'm not sure quite how to check the links in the way I'd like to. I'm considered trying CFHTTP method="get" ... throwonerror="yes" but I'm not sure that it will do what I want it to do. In some cases I want to make sure that the server is responding (because I don't have a specific file to point to) and in some cases I want to make sure there isn't a 404 error (because I do have a specific file to point to). This would probably work for a 404 error but frankly, I didn't understand the section of the CFML Language Reference that talked about whether a filename is required for CFHTTP. To be honest, I don't even want to get the file-- I just want to make sure it is available. I don't have access to these servers so I can't put a dummy file on the server to get to make sure the server is responding. Is there a better way to do this that I'm missing?

RE: remote server response
Hi Jeff, If this tag is going to be made available generally may I join the queue already forming. Kind regards Gordon At 11:03 08/01/01 -0500 Jeff Sarsoun said Jennifer, I'm finishing up a CFX tag that will do what you need. Right now what you can do is write a script that will parse through your templates extracting out http, ftp, or mailto: tags. You can dump these into a table then as a scheduled task you could cfx_http to the address to get the response code from the server, then not show the link if it returns anything other than 200 and send you an email to let you know. Jeff Sarsoun -Original Message- From: Jennifer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 05, 2001 3:09 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: remote server response I'm looking for ideas because I'm not sure how to go about this. I'm setting up some pages that are going to have links to external sites. I know how bad it looks to have broken links so I'd like to check the links on a schedule and remove any links that are broken. I'll still get some broken inks but it's better than using up my server resources checking links every time a page loads. At any rate, I'm not sure quite how to check the links in the way I'd like to. I'm considered trying CFHTTP method="get" ... throwonerror="yes" but I'm not sure that it will do what I want it to do. In some cases I want to make sure that the server is responding (because I don't have a specific file to point to) and in some cases I want to make sure there isn't a 404 error (because I do have a specific file to point to). This would probably work for a 404 error but frankly, I didn't understand the section of the CFML Language Reference that talked about whether a filename is required for CFHTTP. To be honest, I don't even want to get the file-- I just want to make sure it is available. I don't have access to these servers so I can't put a dummy file on the server to get to make sure the server is responding. Is there a better way to do this that I'm missing?

Re: aliasing using cfmail
Some mail servers are more strict than others. Some validate only the email addresses in the protocol and some actually parse the mail headers and check those for validity. However, bottom line, if you want to make sure that you are compliant 100% of the time your address needs to be the way I mentioned before (in both the protocol and headers). What I mean by the protocol is when you use the TO and FROM parameters of CFMail.

If you use IE, you can easily build an XML based tree control to contain your information... -Original Message- From: Joe Sheble aka Wizaerd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 08, 2001 12:41 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Hierarchial Display I am able to retrieve hierarchial data just fine using a nested custom tag, and this tag populates a query for me with the data. However, I'm having a real problem with trying to figure out how to display it. Here's an example of the data: 0325 - Thomas - Graf - 0645 - Robert - Nudo - 0325 1392 - Joseph - Sheble - 0325 0937 - Kimberly - Walters - 1392 0674 - Lisa - Perez - 0937 1450 - Jerome - Horowitz - 0325 And I'd like it displayed thus: 0325 - Thomas - Graf - - 0645 - Robert - Nudo - 0325 - 1392 - Joseph - Sheble - 0325 0937 - Kimberly - Walters - 1392 0674 - Lisa - Perez - 0937 - 1450 - Jerome - Horowitz - 0325 However, there's no limit to the hierachy depth... any ideas?

RE: Hierarchial Display
Cna you tell us what the name of the app is? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 08, 2001 12:07 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Hierarchial Display I recently ran across a sweat application that generated an org chart. What is so sweat is that the Hierarchial data is housed in a XML doc ... and then XSL parser recursively transforms the data with embedded VML to handle the graphical framework. And it executes at the client! The only files sent from the server are the XML document which references the XSL definition. Of course this is MSXML 2.0/IE 5 client based. I can't wait until the next time I need a tree structure GUI. ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Hierarchial Display
I'm pretty sure that the DC CFUG had a presentation on bitmasks and hierarchies, with some custom tags included. It should be available at www.figleaf.com and look under June 2000 CFUG.

Visual Source Safe

CFHEADER
It seems the following won't work, well in at least IE5.5. CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="attachment;filename=#attributes.fname#" CFCONTENT TYPE="application/pdf" FILE="#fnp#" It instead opens the page up for download instead of the file. So lets say I have peter.pdf as my attributes.fname and download.cfm is the page the above code is on. And lets say that it's called from index.cfm. Well index.htm appears in the download file box, not peter.pdf. It seems to work ok in Netscape, so I can't believe I'm the only one having this problem. I've seen similar looking code on the Allaire site, but it's still not working. Can anyone help with this? ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Hierarchial Display
Wat do you mean by a tree structure? At 05:51 PM 1/8/01 +, you wrote: Why not get the custom tag to populate a tree structure instead of a query? Then you can write another recursive custom tag to display the data much more easily. -Original Message- From: Joe Sheble aka Wizaerd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 08, 2001 5:41 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Hierarchial Display I am able to retrieve hierarchial data just fine using a nested custom tag, and this tag populates a query for me with the data.
