Calendar where events span more than one day...
I am working on a calendar implentation for a client who wants to be able to show events that span more than one day, but show them on a traditional month-grid calendar. I have had good luck in another project adapting Ben Forta's CF_Calendar from the Advanced CF Development book, including making it a bit more Netscape friendly, as well as passing database/popup window calls through the associated tags,etc. but that seems to take me only down to the one-day level. Can anyone point to something helpful, some hint about how to go about this or even an available application or tag? Netscape friendly would be best, of course. My first thoughts are that this would be accomplished by somehow manipulating table definitions, with some cells spanning rows, etc., and also that the database for the calendar would use start and end dates, but that's as far as I have gotten up to this point. Much thanks in advance for any help, insights, or useful directions for what to explore. Regards, James Edmunds __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Odd can't log in behavior
I have a login page- first it checks the user/password. If there is no match it sends the user back to the login page with a message... If there is a match it checks what group the user is in and what quarter they should have access to. (Current quarter or past quarters). It is only on occassion that a user needs access to a past quarter so by default they are set to current quarter. If a user is in current quarter all is fine. I'm having a situation where when a user is given access to a past quarter they can't log in at all- they get kicked back to the login page with a message! But the oddest part is that it works fine from any of my test machines (I have 3 that I use)- I can log in as this user and see her info. However, she can't and we know it isn't a matter of mistyping the password. I set her back to current quarter access- still no luck she can't get in. We finally changed her password and she finally got back in. Here's my cfif statement to set the path...I don't know if that's the problem or where else to look!

Re: CFFTP Problem
1_Is that a valid file name??? CFSET remotefile1 = foo.mdb 2_Is that TRANSFERMODE=AUTO or TRANSFERMODE=AUTODETECT ?? I'm posting the completely help from Coldfusion studio down here to see if it can help.See and compare againsts the tested samples. Regards Mario. CFFTP CFFTP allows users to implement File Transfer Protocol operations. Note The CFFTP tag is for moving files between a ColdFusion server and an FTP server. CFFTP cannot move files between a ColdFusion server and a browser (client). Use CFFILE ACTION=UPLOAD to transfer files from the client to a ColdFusion server; use CFCONTENT to transfer files from a ColdFusion server to the browser. Note also that ColdFusion Server Basic security settings may prevent CFFTP from executing. These settings are managed using the ColdFusion Administrator Basic Security page. If you write ColdFusion applications designed to run on a server that is used by multiple customers, you need to consider the security of the files that the customer can move. Please refer to Administering ColdFusion Server for more information about securing ColdFusion tags. CFFTP topics: Establishing a Connection with CFFTP File and Directory Operations with CFFTP Accessing the Columns in a Query Object CFFTP.ReturnValue Variable Connection Caching Establishing a Connection with CFFTP Use the CONNECTION attribute of the CFFTP tag to establish a connection with an FTP server. If you use connection caching to an already active FTP connection, you don't need to respecify the connection attributes: USERNAME PASSWORD SERVER Note Changes to a cached connection, such as changing RETRYCOUNT or TIMEOUT values, may require reestablishing the connection. Syntax CFFTP ACTION=action USERNAME=name PASSWORD=password SERVER=server TIMEOUT=timeout in seconds PORT=port CONNECTION=name PROXYSERVER=proxyserver RETRYCOUNT=number STOPONERROR=Yes/No PASSIVE=Yes/No ACTION Required. Determines the FTP operation to perform. To create an FTP connection, use Open. To terminate an FTP connection, use Close. See Connection Caching for more information. USERNAME Required for Open. User name to pass in the FTP operation. PASSWORD Required for Open. Password to log in the user. SERVER Required for Open. The FTP server to connect to, as in ftp.myserver.com TIMEOUT Optional. Value in seconds for the timeout of all operations, including individual data request operations. Defaults to 30 seconds. PORT Optional. The remote port to connect to. Defaults to 21 for FTP. CONNECTION Optional. The name of the FTP connection. Used to cache a new FTP connection or to reuse an existing connection. If the USERNAME, PASSWORD, and SERVER attributes are specified, a new connection is created if no connection exists for the specified user. All calls to CFFTP with the same connection name will reuse the same FTP connection information. PROXYSERVER Optional. A string that contains the name of the proxy server (or servers) to use if proxy access was specified. RETRYCOUNT Optional. Number of retries until failure is reported. Default is one (1). STOPONERROR Optional. Yes or No. When Yes, halts all processing and displays an appropriate error. Default is Yes. When No, three variables are populated: CFFTP.Succeeded - Yes or No. CFFTP.ErrorCode - Error number (See following Note for critical information.) CFFTP.ErrorText - Message text explaining error type Note Use CFFTP.ErrorCode for conditional operations. Do not use CFFTP.ErrorText for this purpose. PASSIVE Optional. Yes or No. Defaults to No. Indicates whether to enable passive mode. Example CFFTP!--- This view-only example shows the use of CFFTP --- HTML HEAD TITLECFFTP Example/TITLE /HEAD BODY H3CFFTP Example/H3 PCFFTP allows users to implement File Transfer Protocol operations. By default, CFFTP caches an open connection to an FTP server.

RE: CF Web Hosting
I have clients running on advances.net, media3.net and cfdynamics.com. My experience with advances.net is that they do not have enough experience hosting ColdFusion applications to keep the servers running at optimum speeds at all times. They are good people but I wouldn't recommend them. I also have a client at media3.net. They have improved greatly in the past year in their performance but they still have issues. I had to diagnose an issue for them about a year ago in which i couldn't do an alias on a joined column in a query and it was because they were not on the latest version of MDAC. Needless to say I wasn't happy. Lastly, I have clients at cfDynamics.com. They have the fastest performing servers and appear to be the only host with actual ColdFusion 5 Certified developers.

Multiple CFMail Problem
Hey All, Here's my situation. I have an application that generates 3 total emails. User clicks submit, it generates one email, then they're taken to another page on which they can submit additional info. If they do this, two more emails are created, one to the person who is gathering the info, and another back to the user thanking them for sending additional info. My problem is, the middle email doesn't always get sent. I click the first submit button, I always get the email, I do the additional info, hit submit, and I always get the thanks for the more info message, but I only get the additional info message if I then hit the back button, and re-click submit! It seems like the time between messages is to short, and I'm getting these additional info messages in my undelivrable folder. How long do I need to wait between messages, and what's the best way to accomplish the waiting? two separate templates? Help!

RE: Creating Virtual Directories using CF
Has anyone ever tried to connect to IIS using CFObject in order to create a low-pooled virtual directory? When you mention low-pooled, that implies that you're really creating a virtual application rather than a regular virtual directory. Typically, when you create a virtual directory, you can have it use the same application as the site in which it's created. In any case, you can certainly create virtual directories from CF, although I wouldn't use CFOBJECT to do all the work. You might take a look at some of the sample admin scripts that come with IIS (by default, they're in c:\inetpub\adminscripts). There's one called mkwebdir.vbs, and you could call that directly from CFEXECUTE, or rewrite it so that it's a COM object itself - a Windows Script Component. Finally, you might take a look at the IHTK components available here: http://www.intrafoundation.com/ I don't think they give you control over creating virtual applications, just virtual directories, but maybe you don't need a virtual application in any case.

RE: Calendar where events span more than one day...
Don't know about Forta's version but I do know that Jeffry Houser's will do multiple days. That would be Chapter 15 in Instant Cold Fusion 5, Osborne. andy -Original Message- From: JamesEdmunds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 08, 2002 9:29 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Calendar where events span more than one day... I am working on a calendar implentation for a client who wants to be able to show events that span more than one day, but show them on a traditional month-grid calendar. I have had good luck in another project adapting Ben Forta's CF_Calendar from the Advanced CF Development book, including making it a bit more Netscape friendly, as well as passing database/popup window calls through the associated tags,etc. but that seems to take me only down to the one-day level. Can anyone point to something helpful, some hint about how to go about this or even an available application or tag? Netscape friendly would be best, of course. My first thoughts are that this would be accomplished by somehow manipulating table definitions, with some cells spanning rows, etc., and also that the database for the calendar would use start and end dates, but that's as far as I have gotten up to this point. Much thanks in advance for any help, insights, or useful directions for what to explore. Regards, James Edmunds __ Your ad could be here.

RE: SQL server and regular expressions
does anyone know if sql server supports regular expressions? I have some text that gets entered into a database that i would like to parse inside a stored procedure instead of doing it in CF. please give some examples if you can. You can use string patterns within a LIKE or PATINDEX text search. These string patterns are essentially regular expressions, although they're not really called that within SQL. For example, you could search for foo or boo: WHERE field LIKE '[bf]oo' or you could search for anything like _oo other than foo or boo: WHERE field LIKE '[^bf]oo' Beyond that, I think you'd probably have to write an extended stored procedure in C++, but I could be wrong on that.

RE: Multiple CFMail Problem
We experienced this problem with all versions of 4.5. Allaire never did 'fix' the error. They claimed it was fixed in 4.5.1, however it still existed, just wasn't as persistent as earlier versions. Our own diagnosis determined that the cause of the error was the cfmail.dll(I forget the actual name of the DLL) was trying to write two files at the same time. Or perhaps more correctly, it would attempt to write the second file before the first was closed. We would typically end up with 0k files in the undeliverable section. Anyway, adding some pause between the cfmails may solve your problem provided the site isn't terribly active and there aren't too many simultaneous requests to these cfmail calls. We found the size of the emails also greatly affected how often this error would occur. For example, if you have a page that sends 4 different emails to 4 different contacts at one company and each email contains a 10k attachment, you can start to duplicate this bug with some regularity. Now imagine that page being hit every 5 seconds... Now, the speed of your server and file system are also going to affect how often this happens. So, adding pauses and using smaller emails MAY solve your problem depends on how active your site is. Ultimately, our solution was to switch to an alternate means of generating email. We switched to an ASP product that is actually multi-threaded unlike Allaire/Macromedias solution. For years, I have been suggesting that CF Enterprise be bundled with a robust multi-threaded smtp spooler that should be directly tied to the application engine. Enterprise sites that deal with high mail loads would benefit from this. Also, it would add more product disparity between pro and ent, something I personally feel is lacking. I have not tested these same errors (bugs?) in CF 5. Perhaps it has been corrected, but honestly, if past performance of eliminating mail bugs between revisions is any indication, I would suspect they only added new and more exciting problems ;) Trey Rouse Internet Project Coordinator Web Services - Rice University MS 119 - 713.348.4799 PS - I love CFM, I just loath CFMAIL. -Original Message- From: Willy Ray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 08, 2002 10:43 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Multiple CFMail Problem Hey All, Here's my situation.

My problem is, the middle email doesn't always get sent. I click the first submit button, I always get the email, I do the additional info, hit submit, and I always get the thanks for the more info message, but I only get the additional info message if I then hit the back button, and re-click submit!

RE: Multiple CFMail Problem
ODS' iMS Mail server has a bundled CFX_iMSMail tag which is a vast improvement over CFMail. I haven't encountered the types of problems you're describing at all, and I've been using iMS for about two years now. Howie Hamlin (from ODS) can probably speak more on this, but check out iMS at http://www.coolfusion.com.

RE: Multiple CFMail Problem
Hi, Thanks for shedding some light on this subject. Just for the record it is not fixed in CF5 as we experience this same behavior you described and have solved it somewhat by adding in a delay.
