Slightly OT: Cookie blocking at corporate firewall level -what gives?
My colleagues and I are currently faced with the question: "If the app uses cookies, what happens if the user is behind a corporate firewall that blocks cookies?". We know about using URL variables as an alternative, but the question we'd really like answered is "To what extent, generally speaking, do sysadmin's chose to block cookies at the firewall level?" I'd be real grateful if anyone could point me in the direction of any useful stat's or URLs.

Re: CF and Interland Price Increase
I've only dealt with Interland once (and I had a problem with a server...), but perhaps the reason they are increasing prices is that they have grown so rapidly and at such a fast rate, that they no longer can deal with the $50 a month sites anymore profitably. They are probably doing the right thing if this is the case. As anyone who works at an isp knows, just a couple of support calls from some 90 year old grandma who's grandson bought a computer for, will eat profits and stifle productivity.

Remember that for some of us, tripling of any cost is an outrage, but for many of their customers, $150 a month or even $1500 a month is chickenfeed and at those site owners, noone will give a damn. Frankly, I hope Interland continue to think like that - it's all the more business for the rest of us. I think Interland will profit greatly from this move.

" I doubt seriously if they get too many ColdFusion support calls from 90 year old grandmas. ISPs that supply dialup services are the one's that get those calls. I think one of the reasons they made so much money is BECAUSE they don't spend money on support personnel. I've never hosted with them, but I did some work for someone that had a site hosted with them. At the time they had a "Control Panel" for setting up ODBC which was nothing more than a mail form where you said what your domain was, what the database name was, and what you wanted to name the datasource. It took me 3 days of phone calls and e-mails to "support" to get ODBC set up for that simple Access database. They kept giving me stuff like "It'll take effect when the server reboots and we only do that once a day". I'm like, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? This was over a year ago. I don't know if they've since hired people that understand the concept of all this stuff, but at the time they certainly hadn't. The 2 to 3 hours, over 3 days, that they spent answering e-mails and phone calls from me wouldn't have happened if they would have simply took the 30 seconds or so it takes to set up the datasource and just done it. By my estimations, the whole process on their end took about 300 times longer than it should have in actual man hours, and 8,000 times longer than it should have in real time.

You should have the lastest version of the AS400 OS to run DB2 connect properly and the AS400 OS has to be confirgured to get DB2 Connect working properly. The lastest version of Client Access works good and IBM has cleaned the ODBC drivers over the years...so i guess its the best choice.

yes, but in a relatively limited sense.

Advanced Security
I have a Security context with all Domain Users allowed the access the application. No problem there. NOW, I want to limit a part of the application to just a certain subset of domain users setup in a User Group. Those users would have access to the main part of the application, but also need access to the HR functions. Do I need to set up another security context and Authorize them against that context also (in other words, 2 CFAuthenticate statements)? Or how would I do that? How do I know that they are part of that User Group when they log in? Thanks for the help, Vance Duke ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: OT: Dreamweaver UltraDev 4
I wanted to thank everybody for their feedback so far. I should have mentioned that I use Studio all the time and will continue to use it. My goal is to decrease development time and since Spectra wont be available to me inthe immediate future I thought I would tak e a look at UltraDev 4. I have downloaded the trial version and will install shortly. Michael Kear wrote: Um.. Erica, you havent' used the design function in Studio have you? It does things to your code that make Frontpage look almost user friendly. Allaire have recognised this themselves, which is why they put the button in the preferences to turn this function off and remove the tab. If you haven't done so already, I suggest you get rid of the design function before you're tempted to try it. Murphy's law says that when you do try it out, it'll be on a file that's important and your backup is corrupted. I reckon Allaire should have either removed the functionality or fixed it.

I teach ColdFusion to students at a local college and I get them after the ASP instructor had them, after they were exposed to Visual Interdev.and I got nothing but complaints on how hard it was to use. ColdFusion Studio on the other hand, was picked up in a day or two. They even began preferring it over Dreamweaver and UltraDev. UlteDev is ok, but you still have the same old Dreamweaver interface. Reminds me a lot of SaphireWeb actually with it's connections. We do have a client that insists on using UltraDev, and it is getting them up and running rather quickly, but they keep coming to us with code problems that can only be fixed via the HTML source window. Of course, there are some diehards out here that hate all the extraneous code it generates. I guess we have to deal with it all anyway, seeing's how the two company's merged.

It looks like UltraDev is CF's answer to MS Visual Interdev. It sets up simple database functions (insert, delete, edit, move to first, last, next, prev). Does not, on its own, handle relationships between tables(like the query window in CF) fields. You must do it either in CF or in UD interface window. All background code is visible, simple to follow and annotated. When possible, it uses CFSCRIPT. Has the same type interface as DreamWeaver. Would have to get used to the language and easily relate to the "user friendly" window interface screens (how come I know in my head and hands what to do but can not understand what information these interfaces want for their text fields???) Supposedly UD will import CF apps easily as well as custom tags, etc. Macromedia exhange has extensions - basically code contributed by programmers - to expand UD's versatility. It is not the answer to robust development,but it looks like it can help minimize building simple administrative screens. That's all I know for now.

RE: Dates in OLEDB
Is it true that if you have an ole access ds setup, you can connect to any mdb file on the system? Also, is it possible to do things such as setup default field values etc which arent possible through JET on odbc through OLE??? Actually, as long as the login for CF has the rights, you can connect to any mdb on a system via ODBC - you just have to know where it is and the table names I'll dig up the code if you want/need it, it'll just take some time... I'm honestly not sure about the OLEDB controls vs ODBC JET as I haven't used Access as a driver for over a year...

I would then assume there wouldn't be any problems working with the information in this type of database but I would like someone to confirm that for me.

Hi, I have a client that has a limited budget and can't afford for us to build them an e-commerce store from scratch, so I wanted to find out if anyone knew a good software that had admin reports, allowed for design, product and layout setup customization, and allowed repeat customers to have an account setup that they could view what they bought in the past, saved all of their account information, including their credit cards (like Amazon). I used Miva Merchant once, and it was awful. -ashley ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: search a text file
I've got a bit of a task where I need to poll a text file for several lines of text which is buried deep within the file. These lines change each day, but the text surrounding them do not. Is it possible to extract these lines of information based on the text surrounding them? You need a bit RegEx to do this As my brain is trying to climb out of my ear (too many days of too many hours) I can't think of it at the moment (how bad is that?) But I'm sure someone else will post it...

RE: cffile and mapped or UNC drives
ah for sure it is a monday, i goofed on typing in the unc path, my actual code does not have the drive letter in it g but basically it sounds like y'all are saying it is a perms problem? That's probably the problem. By default, CF runs as LocalSystem, which is a security context analogous to a local administrator with no network rights. You can run CF as a different user (one with fewer local rights but network access) to address this.

the easiest way I have found to see if the drive can be accessed is to go to the actual web server (either console or PCAnywhere type connection) and hit run, and type in the unc drive path.

Re: OT: cffile and mapped or UNC drives
The user that CF is running as must have access to the unc path. By default CF uses the localsystem account that wont have access to those shares. A common problem when your webserver doesn't have your actual web content on it. Actually causes the CF installer to bomb with a disk space error.

RE: Any recommendations on an E-commerce software?
They must not like other people very much. We tried to use Ablecommerce a little over a year ago and the tech support was terrible. They did nothing but try and point fingers at anything but their product for the problems we were experiencing. The problems turned out to be the installation was not installing correctly from the media they provided us when we purschased it. The problem happened on multiple servers and had it ever been tried on out production server we would have experience a bit of downtime due to the installation hosing Netscape Enterprise on all of the test machines.

Mass Newsletter Distribution
Ideas, suggestions, experiences welcomed... My company has accumulated a sizable email list and has been using mass email distribution companies to send newsletters to these addresses. Due to escalating cost, my managers want to know what hardware/bandwidth would be required to send these newsletters using an in house solution. They would be one email per week to a list that exceeds 900,000 recipients. The list is growing at a rate of approximately 3-7%. Although we don't expect this growth to last forever, we do foresee that the list will reach the million mark very soon. The hardware, software and bandwidth recommendations would have to allow for this type of growth. The solution would also have to have the same types of features that these mass emailers have such as email client sniffers, link tracking, traffic reporting, forwarding reporting, etc. I am certain that one could write a CF mass emailer, but i really don't think CF would be the best suited tool for this type of job.

Re: Can CF work with a FileMakerPro database?
Why not just use the FileMaker Web Server. It seems counter-productive to try to use CF. I believe that Lasso is the FileMaker language for the web (don't hold me to that)? FileMaker, depending who you talk to, is not a relational database, it's a flat-file structure, similar to Approach.

RE: CFHTTP
Further to my existing query is cfhttp restricted to coldfusion templates or can it it be compatible with any executable awaiting the parameters within cfhhtp, to quote the help docs "Post passes data to a specified ColdFusion page or to some executable that interprets the variables being sent and returns data." You can use CFHTTP against any URL that will respond to the GET or POST request you send it. It doesn't matter what server-side language is used to generate that response. CFHTTP is used by CF as an HTTP client, and from the remote server's perspective, it's like any other HTTP client.

In NT, for example, when you log into the console, you'd have to log in with the same user credentials used by your web server for this to be true.

RE: connecting to remote SQL server via TCP-IP
You will need to ensure that you have enabled the TCP/IP network protocol on the server: the default is Named Pipes. You can determine what protocol you are using and add protocols by running the SQL Server Setup utility. Benjamin S.

It sounds like your site is hosted on a server running ColdFusion 4.5.x.

RE: Displaying message during loading..?
i'm wondering how i can create a message on a page that's displayed during the page is loaded. So when a query returns many results the users gets this message saying the data is on it's way and hiding this message when the query results have been loaded and displayed. Here's a cheater way to do it... Go to a page that says "Hang on, fetching data" That page has a meta-refresh that goes to the actual page that does the query. So your "wait" page will show until the query page shows up. Or, you could pop open a little "Pleas wait" window using javascript and then put the window close() routine at the end of the page that displays the results of the query. Or, wait for an upcoming version of CF that will supposedly allow you to send stuff down the pipe before the page is completely done.

RE: Displaying message during loading..?
I would use JavaScript for this... basically popup a small window with the message you want and then continue to the page that does the processing, then in the new page's BODY ONLOAD handling, call a function to close that window here's what I'm thinking SCRIPT function callLoadMsg() { indow.open('loadMsg.cfm','loadMsgWindow','width=400,height=200,toolbar=0,loc ation=0,directories=0,status=0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,menubar=0'); location = 'dowhatever.cfm'; } /SCRIPT A HREF="javascript:callLoadMsg();"THIS WILL TAKE SOME TIME, MAYBE/A then the page that takes awhile to load: BODY ONLOAD="javascript:loadMsgWindow.close()" I did this on-the-fly without testing, but the idea and the logic is there or wait for CF5 Terry Bader IT/Web Specialist EDO Corp - Combat Systems (757) 424-1004 ext 361 - Work [EMAIL PROTECTED] (757)581-5981 - Mobile [EMAIL PROTECTED] icq: 5202487 aim: lv2bounce http://www.cs.odu.edu/~bader -Original Message- From: Patric Stumpe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, March 12, 2001 2:42 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Displaying message during loading..?
