Studio 4.5.2 wierdness
Hi all, I've got Studio 4.5.2 on Win2k SP1. Every now and then (but with increasing frequency) Studio will refuse to save a local file. You try to close it, it says Do you want to save as normal but when you click yes, the file is not saved and the document is not closed. If I copy the text of the file to the clipboard, restart Studio and then paste it over the top, it saves fine. It seems to happen randomly, on two separate machines with the same software specs (but different hardware). Has anyone else had this problem?

RE: Brainbench certification
I agree with this - the ACP is supposed to be easier than the MCP tests by all accounts. you only need 60% to get ACP but 80% for MCP. Bear mind that being ACP doesn't necressarily mean that you are a top CF programmer - just shows you know a thing or two about it. You can exam cram and pass easilly. I know a guy who had very little IT knowledge at all, paid a load of money to do 6 weeks worth of courses, and then after 6 weeks took some exams (6 in total) and became MCSE!Now I don't care what anyone says but I'd rather employ a guy with a couple of years experience and no certification than someone else just because thay were MCSE. -Original Message- From: Daniel Kemp [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 30 May 2001 12:08 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Brainbench certification While there's some respect going round :) I'm from the UK and have both the BrainBench and Allaire certification, IMHO the Allaire/Macromedia test was harder than the BrainBench, although the BrainBench was far better in structure question clarity.

Re: Silly Validation Question...
Make your submit button call a javascript function that: 1) checks the
value of the select box and 2) submits if not NULL, otherwise, displays an
error message.
Something like this:
function CheckForNull( )
{
if (document.FormName.selectBox.value == )
alert (Please select a state)
else
document.FormName.submit()
}
Then your button:
input type=button value=Submit onClick=CheckForNull()
(I haven't tested the syntax of the code, remember JS is case sensitive)

Hey,
Does anyone have a good script or method of making a select box contain a

I am working on a state drop-down in which the first selection is Pick

What I want to happen is for a javascript screen to pop up (or something
like that--you know the usual CFFORM javascript validation) if a user
tries
to submit the form without choosing a state that has a value. I have
seenm
this used many times and even with CFSELECT form fields, but I am having
the
worst time trying to implement this.
I want to populate the CFSELECT with a query from a State_Table but do not
want to store a state with a value of as not to populate a state field
with NULL answer.
Is there an OnError or someother Javanscript function that could make sure
that a value other than was chosen and that the error message could be
configurable. I know that this is so CF 101, but I have never had to do
this and am pulling my hair out in anger.
Thanks a ton,

RE: CFFLUSH QUESTION
CFFLUSH doesn't know the difference between TABLE tags or any other HTML tag. It just flushes out content. It's really up to the browser, so you will have to test to find out. One thing I've found is that IE will refuse to render until it gets X amount of data. So, if you don't have a lot of output before your CFFLUSH, you won't see anything. I got around this by using RepeatString( ,X) where X is some number. === Raymond Camden, Principal Spectra Compliance Engineer for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ UIN : 3679482 My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. - Yoda -Original Message- From: Pooh Bear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2001 5:39 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFFLUSH QUESTION how does CFFLUSH handle tables? i mean, let's say my page is a whole table, and there is some things inside the table that should display a few seconds after another after processing is done (which CFFLUSH is for). however, would CFFLUSH be useless in this case since the browser waits for all of the Table code to be dowloaded, thus, you'll see everything at the same time anyways? hehehehehhe ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

I looked into using CFHTTP, but couldn't get that to work -- probably because of the media type. I'm not actually wanting to download, just see if the stream exists. If there an easy way to do this?

Re: CF_GOINGNUTS [[SOLVED!!!]
SOLVED THE ISSUE!!! coding problem :)) Apparently I didn't change the URL everytime I got a bad response from the server (or incorrect mime type) so CFhttp gave the RIGHT answer - but it looped everytime on the last wrong URL without changing it. that's way the answer was the same till the loop ended. I took the cfset url= outside of the IF condiftion, and now it's working!!

Brandon, Check out qForms: http://www.pengoworks.com/qForms/ It has all sorts of really easy to use validation methods. For example, to make sure they select a state, you could just do: obj.fieldName.validateState(); or to simply check that the value was not blank: obj.fieldName.validateNotEmpty(); or you could expand the above and provide a custom error message: obj.fieldName.validateNotEmpty(You must select a state from the drop down list.); That's it!

Regarding: Is it allaire's responsibility to make sure *you're* up to speed? In a nutshell -- Yes -- not from a technical knowledge point of view of knowing how to use their product, but defintely from a product availability and the business reasons why, I as a customer/developer/client should buy their upgrade -- unless, of course, Macromedia is not interested in increasing the number of upgrades they sell. They haven't said anything directly to me or my clients as registered users about upgrading and the business reasons why? My client's as a registered user don't even know it exists and won't unless I tell them). What is Macromedia's viewpoint on the business reasons (not techie reasons) that a firm should upgrade to 5.0 -- can anyone point to a source on their web site that addresses this issue (here I go hunting instead of them providing). Note: As a comparision, I got an annoucement from Adobe about their new Actobat 5.0 product which I promptly went out and bought, because they also gave me a few business reasons why to upgrade.

Re: How do I parse strings?
If you consider the variable as a list delimited with spaces you can process
it.
Here is code that I use:
cfscript

die before I wake the Lord I pray my soul to take;
maxl=100;
ar=listtoarray(st, );
outar=arraynew(1);
outst=;
for(i=1;i LE arraylen(ar);i= i +1){
if(len(outst)+len(ar[i]) GT maxl){
temp=arrayappend(outar,outst);
outst=;
}
outst=ltrim(outst ar[i]);
}
if(len(outst)){

RE: How do I parse strings?
hi Bill,
This should do what you want more or less, it uses CF Script, Except this
will also check for the Existing CRLF characters and bearck naturally. It
will search backwards for the last space before a word rather than search
forward.
Amend Linelength to match requirements. The Output is in TmpActual which is
an Array.
iLine is the Line count Amend it from 2 to 1,
Theres also probably a better way to do this, but it works,
cfscript
iLine=2;
LineLength=64
TmpActual=Arraynew(1);
MsgOperator=Replace(Form.Message,Chr(10),},ALL);
MsgOperator=Replace(MsgOperator,Chr(13),},ALL);
while (len(MsgOperator) gt 0){
TmpNote=;
if (len(MsgOperator) gt LineLength)
TmpNote=Mid(MsgOperator,1,LineLength);
else
TmpNote=Mid(MsgOperator,1,len(MsgOperator));
pos=Find(}},TmpNote,1)-1;
if (pos lte 0){
pos=Len(TmpNote);
if (pos eq LineLength){
for (pos;pos gt 0 and Mid(TmpNote,pos,1) neq
;pos=pos-1);
if (pos eq 0)
pos=Len(TmpNote);
}
}
Miss_Line=FALSE;
if (Find(}},TmpNote,1) eq 1){
pos=2;
Miss_Line=TRUE;
}
if (not Miss_Line){
TmpActual[iline]=
Ljustify(Mid(TmpNote,1,pos),LineLength);
iLine=iLine+1;
}
if (Find(}},TmpNote,1) gte 0)
pos=pos+2;
else
pos=pos+1;
MsgOperator=Mid(MsgOperator,pos-1,len(MsgOperator));
}

RE: Brainbench certification
My take on all of this certification business is this: Fine if you are an ACP, better if you are and MCSE because many companies that use MS solutions like to require it of their consultants. As far as CF certification goes, I am not certified yet, but I know too many people who are certified and still ask the same old questions that could be looked up in a heart-beat. Code samples and links to previous work are by far the best things to judge a person's experience and competence by. Also, requiring ungodly amounts of skills and skillsets is ridiculous. How many companies list: ColdFusion, JavaScript, DHTML, C++, Java, Perl, PHP, ASP, SQL Server, Oracle, etc, the list goes on and on. I'd worry about someone who comes to interview with me and says they know all of those things really well. I truly think there are only a handful of people who don't eat or sleep that are experts in all of those things. I would like someone with a more narrow skillset, say CF, JavaScript and SQL Server, maybe DHTML, and to know those skills INSIDE-OUT. That to me would show that they are focused on mastering languages and applications. There is nothing wrong with posting desired or skills that would be a plus or some knowledge a plus areas, but I just don't think it's realistic to required every single scripting language and database server. -Andy -Original Message- From: Andy Ewings [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2001 9:21 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Brainbench certification Yeh I know that theyu don't have any involvement in certs - just the guy advised us to wait as if he knew something or had heard from someone at Macromedia along the grapevine.

Easy way to Compare large text
Howdy, Ok, I need some suggestions on an easy way to compare large text fields from a DB table. I was thinking about using the CF function Evaluate and sending the user a message saying that yes these strings are similar or no they are not. Well, that is the simple way to do things.

Re: Writing Custom Functions
Michael,
Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but I have to ask - does this mean that one
can, with CF5, set the code of a UDF into a variable, and then execute that
UDF just by calling that variable in function syntax, and it automatically
gets evaluated and run?
Is that all the function keyword does - is create a variable for the function?
Does this mean that we could theoretically use any variable as a function?
Or am I missing something?

The normal operation is to have your UDF either on the same page as you need
them or in a CFINCLUDE. If your especially evil then you can load them into

RE: RealAudio and ColdFusion
Still stumped on this. I tried using the 'FileExists()' method, but it didn't detect the RealAudio stream. Then I got onto the server console to verify that the .rm file was actually there -- and it wasn't! but we were indeed putting out a RealAudio stream. How is it possible for a RealAudio stream to be playing, and yet that .rm file doesn't exist anywhere on the file system of the server? The web server (IIS/CF) and RealServer are on the same machine, but the RealPublisher is on a remote machine. When the stream is started by the RealPublisher, we have to specify the domain (where the web server/RealServer is located), the RealAudio port (7070), and the stream filename (as well as username/password to gain access to that server/port). Yet when I check that server, the stream file is nowhere to be found. Am I out of my tree, or what??

No-Content Error?
I'm using a file with a switch/case statement and only two 'pages' within it. Outside the IF statements that define each page, are lots of html stuff, and some text. So even if a query returned zero records (for no display), the page should come up fine without data. First Problem: The form comes up fine. When I press submit and it sends to the second page, which is a template that runs a query and outputs it, it seems to wait a long time in the browser, then I get the error message PAGE HAS NO CONTENT. Since I added CF error handling, now I just get my system error page. This was working, I've been making mods in the query and in the (grouped) output trying to get it right. I thought this version would work, but now this weird no-content problem. The query is too long to expect people to easily troubleshoot in an email, but I don't see how that could cause it. I'm wondering if anybody else has come across a similar error and knows the probable cause?
