CF can generate any kind of ASCII text you need, whether it's HTML for standard browsers, WML for WAP devices, or RTF for MS Word. cHTML is just another kind of text, so you shouldn't have any problems generating valid cHTML from CF. By the way, there's a list dedicated to wireless CF development. You can sign up at http://www.bromby.com/.

Replace List Help - SORRY
Sorry about that last message - kids playing with the keyboard.
Can someone tell me why this doesn't work?
#ReplaceList(ParagraphFormat(message), ":-), :'(", ", ")#
It works for the first replacement, but not for subsequent replacements in
the list. Also - I have the text and the images to replace the texts in a
DB table. I'd like to be able to build this ReplaceList function
dynamically. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Re: Bizarre disappearing page - help!!!
Too illustrate my point I took Davids original code and used the Order Details table from the Northwinds database that comes with SQL Server. I looped over Davids code and my code below 5 times. Davids code came back with times of 2464,2483,2494. The code below came in with times of 2223,2243,2163. These results were taken after a few run throughs so that caching and any pcode optimization had already taken place. Not to mention the code below is much easier to read.

Re: Bizarre disappearing page - help!!!
I've seen it tons of times, CF pukes and outputs nothing. No error message, but I've never seen anything else cause cf to output nothing so at least it's possible to figure out what is causing it... Perhaps using blockfactor might help? Then again no one wants to look at 1300+ records. You could put 2 cfquerys on the page and have the first one get only 1000 records and have the second one get 1000-2000 and so on...very kludgy though. Also is the second slowest tag in cf.

Re: OT: The squeeze ... XML
Client-side XML processing has been available since IE 4 and with IE 5 came great improvements. You can create the MS XML Parser/DOM client-side and perform data transformations, searching etc. What I want to do is compress the XML as it travels from the server to the browser and then have it expanded. I think IIS has the capability to send compressed HTML ... via an ISAPI extention? I'm wondering if there is a XML compression vehicle?

Re: Not letting me update
Off the top of my head... Is 'sold' a numerical field or a text? Is ID a numerical field or a text field? You are referencing them both as text fields. Off the top of my head, I'd say remove the quotes from both of them, like this: UPDATE guns setsold =1 WHERE (id =#id#) Although it is not necessary from a theoretically standpoint, in practice most primary keys are numerical fields.

RE: Making Rows change color
setup to classes in your style sheet with whatever colors you want...
TD {
}
..even {
color : Black;
}
..odd {
color : White;
}
and then when you output do something like:
CLASS="even"
CLASS="odd">
#nothing_id#
now, i did this free hand and did not test it, but i hope the logic is
there, just check and see if the currentrow is even or not. and depending
on what it is, everyother row will use the same class style...
hope this helps and sorry if this doesnt work out of the box

Re: Bizarre disappearing page - help!!!
Shouldn't be a problem - I'm using IE5 on NT with 128Mb. I wish I had some sort of decent packet sniffer - I'm not sure if the HTTP session is being aborted, or what... I have something similar, but for various reasons it doesn't work with host headers.

RE: Bizarre disappearing page - help!!!
good point, i hadnt even thought of client restrictions... just to add to Dick's reply, we had a customer that wanted a quick fix to update some records all at once (temporarily, until they decided what they really wanted and what they wanted to pay), but because they used IE 4, the browser just began to crash with all the data being displayed in one page... and that was only 800+ records at the time... so now rethinking about it, have you tried different browsers? i have not had a problem with IE 5 on the same large web pages... and i have a bit more memory then the average user...

Re: Bizarre disappearing page - help!!!
We aren't using Macs. You can tell something's aborting almost immediately, as there is no significant delay, as one would expect it would take to receive such a large page. We might end up doing the next n thing - it just barely seems worth it as it is not a commonly used feature, and they have a fast connection.

I don't think you're going to like my answer all that much, but that's never stopped me before. There haven't been any conclusive rigorous tests about automatic read locking versus programmatic locking. Some people here have done some informal tests which indicate no significant difference, but to the best of my knowledge, none of those tests have involved significant numbers of concurrent users. Also, to the best of my knowledge, no one outside of Allaire knows exactly how the automatic read locking works. It could be less than optimal, but it could be just right for all I know. You'd need to know the internals of the CF server engine to answer this question. However, in the situation you're in, you don't have much choice - automatic read locking is far better than the alternative, which is just to let the unlocked code run as-is. > Would this be better or worse then "Single-Threading" sessions? My guess here is, it depends. Using single-threaded session obviates the need for any CFLOCK tags around any session variables. On the other hand, it does this by allowing only one request for a given user to execute at a time. This might be problematic with framesets or multiple windows. Given a choice, I'd go with the automatic read locking, probably.

RE: Database Indexing & Primary Keys
> Does the foreign key in a table need to be indexed when that > field is already indexed as a primary key? If I understand your question correctly, yes, you'll generally want your foreign keys to be indexed. Any fields commonly used for filters or joins should be indexed, if those fields will benefit from an index. > Also, if you have a linking table with 2 foreign keys should > those 2 keys be combined to form a primary key for the linking > table? Every table should have a primary key, and within a linking or intersection table, the natural primary key consists of the two foreign keys. However, in some cases, you may want to use a surrogate primary key instead; for example, if you want to track historical information about previous intersections, you could do this by using a surrogate key, and a field to track the persistence of the intersection. Here's an illustration: Item_Category intersection table: Item_ID Category_ID Item_Category intersection table, modified for historical data: Item_Category_ID <- surrogate primary key Item_ID Category_ID Date_Created Date_Removed With the second table, to find current intersections, you'd look for entries in the intersection table with a NULL Date_Removed value. There are other ways of dealing with historical data as well.

Re: FW: Native Oracle Driver
I don't know if this is exactly your problem, but the string formatting of dates is controlled by the "locale" of the oracle server. It could be set for a locale that just returns this. What we generally do for Oracle dates using native drivers is to turn the dates into a string when we select them: SELECT TO_CHAR(YourDateField, "MM/DD/ HH24:MI:SS") AS YourDateField, This way, we can format the dates exactly how we expect them to be.

The biggest problem with doing this is (as I originally stated) that you're reliant on the speed of the OS to write the file before the webserver says "The file is located here" With NT, it doesn't always become a visible file immediately, which means that when the browser requests the file that the webserver says is in a particular position, then it'll say "It's not there, broken graphic" There is a pseudo way around this, which is to change the image in JavaScript... you could display a "blank" graphic (a transparent GIF will do the trick, and it'll only be 43 bytes), and then via the onLoad event, get JavaScript to replace the graphics with the "generated" ones It's still not good, but it should work 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.

My point was about the degree to which you could guarantee that info being correct. Any information provided by the browser can be tampered with. For example, if your app is looking at HTTP_HOST or SERVER_NAME to see whether the user can access an administrative interface, I can write a script which says it's looking for "localhost" or whatever your app is using. If that's not a concern to you, then don't worry about it. As an alternative, what I generally recommend for machine-specific application settings is that you store them on the machine itself, and have your application read those values from wherever you've stored them. You could store them in a text file, or within the registry, for example. If you store them in a file, make sure that file doesn't get overwritten when you move a new build of your application from development to production.

RE: Displaying the IP of a server
How reliable would this scenario be, then: One application with one application.cfm. Three locations for the application: local development machine, public production server, private production server. Only some resources are available on each platform, need a way to determine which platform app is running on to disable attempting to access unavailable resources. For example: Production machine - all resources available - NT authentication, access to resources off the box. Private machine - NT authentication available, no access to resources off the box. Local machine - W98, PWS - no NT authentication available How to identify which location the app is running on within the same application.cfm and conditionally process accordingly?

These are only as reliable as the information they're fed by the browser. For example, if I wanted, from my browser, to put a specific value in those variables, I can do that. I need only edit my hosts file to give whatever name I want to the appropriate IP address. The only way to know that the name used by the browser is the appropriate name is if you're using name-based virtual servers, which will only accept requests that provide the appropriate name. Also, in a clustered environment, these variables may provide the external name used to reach the cluster, rather than a name corresponding to a specific server.

RE: Books on CF,
Well, the book is having pages laid out right now, it'll go to print in a couple of weeks ... so it is about a month out (until it is in your hands). But, here's some info ... * It's a smallish book, similar form factor to my little SQL book, but about double as thick (400-500 pages). Designed to be easy to carry around. * It's written to be very readable, and as a reference. Is made up of about 40 chapters (each of only 8-12 pages or so) that are very highly focused. (One on lists, one on arrays, one on locking, one on stored procedures, etc). Designed to be able to read up on specific topics quickly and easily without too many dependencies on prior content. (But is also cross referenced extensively). * It is NOT a tutorial, it is a review and reference book. The latter is key, this book was written to be a desktop reference even after the exam. * Content is very code centric, very real-world, and has tips and notes on almost every page. * Sample tests are included at the end of each chapter. (Answers in an appendix too). * And, as a special bonus, the book will include a coupon for money off the test! (I can't tell you the exact amount, but ... you'll get back over half of the cost of the book). And that's all I am saying. :-) Oh, ok, one last thing ... book was co-authored by Emily Kim, Geoff Bowers, Matt Bole, and Matt Reider (all well known CF instructors, and some of whom contributed test content). --- Ben PS I'll post more details when it is about to ship. -Original Message- From: Daryl Fullerton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, February 11, 2001 9:56 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Books on CF, Ben, Any hints on whats in the Certified ColdFusion Developer Study Guide chapters etc, format, layout.
