No, it's just 3000 records, all displayed in table format, by date. The page

Ian,

Yes, it is a good idea to separate one big table into multiple tables so the
browser can render each table individually.  Netscape will not render a
table unless it has all the information for that table.

What is taking so long for the page to load?  Maybe the problem is somewhere
other than the HTML?

Hi all,

I'm trying to use CFFLUSH for a long, slow loading page. Problem is, both IE
5 and NS 6 seem to ignore the FLUSH command.

Do some browsers require the whole table be completed before delivery?

RE: CF and Windows 2000 Website

2002-05-13 Thread Matt Robertson

Start / Settings / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Internet
Services Manager

Right click on the computer in the let pane.  Choose New and then Web
Site from the popup window.  The website creation wizard comes up.  The
prompts are:

Description.  I usually put the domain name here.

IP and port settings.  Pick the IP that this site will answer to.  Leave
everything else alone.

Path.  Sounds like this should be c:\inetpub\wwwroot\abc for your
example.

Click Next and finish.

Now right-click on the web site you just created (it just appeared in
the left pane of IIS Mgr underneath the default web site).

Choose Properties from the menu and click the Home Directory tab.  Set
Application Protection to Low (IIS Process). Click OK.

Those are the very basic steps.  You should definitely look into how to
set the server up as securely as possible before diving in.

Subject: CF and Windows 2000 Website


Hi everyone.
I am trying to do the following (never done it before):

On one of our test servers we have Windows 2000 Server running IIS 5 and
CF 5. The default website is setup and I need to create a new one. Well
the cfdocs and cfide folders are inside the wwwroot folder which is the
path to the default website. How do I create a new site that will work..
Right now I have a folder inside the wwwroot folder (default website)
that is called ABC and want to be able to execute Cf templates inside
it but right now I get a 404 error displayed by CF server.  Any ideas?
Do I need to remove the ABC folder and redefine thesite? Any
suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

RE: CFFLUSH and tables

2002-05-13 Thread Reuben Poon

Ian,

That is a large page size to download.  I guess I meant there are several
potential areas for a bottleneck:

Server problems:
Database interaction (lots of joins??)
Lots of Cold Fusion processing required

Bandwidth problems:
Slow connection from client to server?  Problem download large amounts of
data?

Client problems:
HTML table not rendering piece by piece

If the problem is with the client, just splice your table into several
smaller tables and they should render when they receive data.

Opera and cgi.HTTP_REFERER

2002-05-13 Thread Michael Kear

I have a page which allows access only if a user is coming from a specific page, and I 
use http_referer to grant or deny access.  But I don't think Opera gives this 
variable.  can anyone else verify that?   And how do you get around it? 

The situation is people buy access to an article or series of articles
through an online shop, and I am reasoning that if they have got as far as page 
101625, they must have paid or been given appropriate access. (that means I can leave 
it to the guy who looks after page 101625 to make sure he restricts access 
appropriately.  The code I'm using is as follows:   

cfif isdefined(HTTP_REFERER) AND
(

! if he's coming from the article page -
(#HTTP_REFERER# contains #articleID#)
OR
! or he is coming back from the results page for another go round
---
(#HTTP_REFERER# contains #calcfilename#)
)



! if that's the case do nothing, i.e. let him in 
 cfelse


!--- Otherwise send him to the head page of the article, where
the user will be bounced if not logged in ---

cflocation
url=http://www.mydomain.com/goArticle.asp?ID=#articleID#p=01;
cfabort
/cfif


Can anyone see the flaw in this snippet that lets it work for IE and NN
but not for Opera?

RE: CFObject - creating an instance on the workstation

2002-05-13 Thread Kevan . Windle

You need the application you are going to use. Has to be installed under the
same account as the one running CF, and you should set the service to allow
interaction with the desktop (double click on the service in services
manager). Biggest problem you have to be aware of is the automated
application throwing up dialogs on the server, and your app just hanging.
You need to handle all possible instances in code.
You can set these on your application object:

xlApp.AlertBeforeOverwriting = False
xlApp.AskToUpdateLinks = False
xlApp.DisplayAlerts = False
xlApp.FeatureInstall = msoFeatureInstallNone

But I'm not sure whether they are 100%.
You also have to beware of sharing conflicts if multiple users are accessing
the same file.

How do i pass FORM variables from one action page to another one ?

2002-05-13 Thread JAIME HOI

Hi
  Let's sayi have Page A , action page is Page B. From page B after some
checking i will call page C. But how can Page C get the form variables from
Page A? Does anyone knows how i can have a quick access of all the form
variables and pass it to Page C. For eg, if it is URL variables, i can use
CGI.Query_String to pass them to Page C. But for FORM variables, how do i
access it? As an alternative, i was thinking of using WDDX . Construct one
CFML2WDDX and have it as one of the hidden variable in Page A. Then simply
access that single hidden variable and pass to Page C as URL variable.
Anyone sees any problem with this? I'm quite confused, i am looking for a
quick method to handle the passing of data. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

doesn't affect how it works in the browser:

Re: list delimiters

2002-05-13 Thread Kay Smoljak

OK... So I have each record (line) of the CSV in a separate list. I now
need to loop over each record (list) and pull the individual fields out.
In order to change the commas to pipes, I'd have to know which ones to
change and which ones not to, no?

The only way I can think of involves lots of regexes, which
unfortunately I'm not good at. I was thinking I could go through the
list and find a single double-quote. Then keep looking until I find
another single double-quote (there are double quotes within the string,
but they are escaped ie 'she said hello to him'). Then change all
the commas within that field to pipes, loop over and pull them into a
structure, then change all the pipes back to commas. Whew. I have no
idea where to start.

Bud, I think that having a list qualifier parameter would be much much
simpler!

Kay.

P.S. In case I'm not being clear here, a single record looks like this:

11,Apollo 13,Drama,It had been less than a year since man first walked
on the moon, but as far as the American Public was concerned, Apollo 13

I don't know how Opera behaves, offhand, but would like to point out a
couple of things anyway. First, you don't have to check for the existence of
CGI variables, as long as you use the CGI scope prefix. CF will always
create such variables if they don't exist. So, for example, this code would
work:

cfif CGI.FOO_BAR is not baz

even though there's no variable called CGI.FOO_BAR.

Second, and more important, you can't rely on CGI.HTTP_REFERER for any
serious security anyway, since it's sent by the browser, and can easily be
set to whatever value the end user wants it to be (typically, they'd set it
to the value that you're expecting, I suppose).

Theres a custom tag called CFX_CSVToQuery... cant remember off hand

This handles commas in the fields (assuming they are within quotations i

  http://www.somesite.com/index/19/
  that is a true 'search engine safe' url, otherwise known as a
  'directory-style-querystring'
 
 But that would require passing any file - at least any file without
 extention to the CF engine.  Bit of a problem no ?
 

not a huge problem, really.
how important are search engine rankings to your site?
pretty important, i.ve found.

  change all the commas within that field to pipes, loop over and pull

The simplest way is to loop through form.fieldnames.

cfloop index=send list = #form.fieldnames#
input type=hidden name=#send# value=#evaluate(send)#
/cfloop

You'll obviously have to pass them through a form again with a 
Continue or Next Page button or whatnot.

Also, if you're passing a field to tell the page what to process, ie; 
doing all the processing on the same page.

cfif form.action is this
Do this
cfelseif form.action is that
Do that
/cfif

then you'll want to not pass the original action, or you'll be 
passing a comma delimited list with the original action and the new 
action. So do it like this:

cfloop index=send list = #form.fieldnames#
cfif send is not action
input type=hidden name=#send# value=#evaluate(send)#
/cfif
/cfloop
input type=hidden name=action value=New Action

RE: How do I pass FORM variables from one action page to another one ?

2002-05-13 Thread Timothy Heald

Look for the custom tag embed form fields.  One suggestion though.  You need
to doctor the tag to replace any ' or  that are in the fields with quote;
and such so you don't break it on the next page.  Page b will do a form
submit (can be handled in javascript with an onload function) that will just
pass all the hidden fields to page c for processing or whatever.

RE: How do i pass FORM variables from one action page to another one ?

2002-05-13 Thread Timothy Heald

I guess I could have explained that better. CF_EMBEDFORMFIELDS will write
all existing form variables to hidden fields.  You need to write something
to submit the form.  It uses form.fieldnames, and evaluate() to generate the
new form.  Again if you need any more help with this just let me know.

Re: Find match in string

2002-05-13 Thread phumes1

Hi,

The code below checks for the filenames and extensions:

cfif (ListFindNoCase(dat,listLast(#Session.stDirFileName[i]#, .)) OR
   
ListFindNoCase(job,listLast(#Session.stDirFileName[i]#, 
.)) OR
   
ListFindNoCase(inc,listLast(#Session.stDirFileName[i]#, 
.)) OR
   
ListFindNoCase(log,listLast(#Session.stDirFileName[i]#, 
.)))
/cfif

Some of the file have a ~ at the end. For example, test.dat~

How can I easily check the above variable for the ~. Note that the file 
extension could be more than three characters to the right of the .

 The simplest way is to loop through form.fieldnames.

 cfloop index=send list = #form.fieldnames#
 input type=hidden name=#send# value=#evaluate(send)#

RE: Geographical redundancy?

2002-05-13 Thread Rick Walters

BoardWatch Magazine publishes a summary of country-wide backbone
providers once or twice a year.  If you look specifically for this
publication you can get a good overview of which networks connect to
which cities and NAPs (MAE-East is a NAP).  

Personally, I don't think you're really looking for a solution like
this in the end. You might want to consider pooling data locally at your
collection centers and, as someone already mentioned, replicate this
data to a central source.  Then, if you choose to use a web interface
for collection and display of this data, you can have multiple
webservers, each local to the pooled data, and a master server residing
over the central data.  With this model, the central repository's
reports could conceivably be impaired by net traffic, but the local
centers, where the data is entered, will remain up to date and
functioning regardless of disasters in other locations or loss of
connectivity.

Exodus is now owned by Cable  Wireless. C  W also bought Digital
Island, so they have some great technology for distribute web sites.
Global Crossing is another Enron, so you best stay away. AboveNet,
which
was always owned by Metromedia Fiber Network (MFN); has been sucked
back
into the parent company. MFN has had and continues to have one of the
best IP networks in the world. Their claim to fame is also that they
run
the MAEs. UUnet has a great network, but they are part of WorldCom,
which is having serious trouble theses days. Savvis has some really
nice
offerings and has weathered the downturn thanks to their monopoly on
finical services networks that their parent company Bridge gave them.
Level3 Communications also has some good stuff these days.

There are plenty of other ISPs and hosting providers, but they really
can't compete with the above list.

 You'll need to rely on one of the larger ISP/hosting providers for
this,
 it
 won't be cheap. Exodus (are they still around?), is an example of a
well
 known provider that can accommodate you. Their NOC's (network
operation
 center) are notoriously renowned as being the biggest and the
baddest
 (including guards armed with AR15's back in the dot com hay days).
 You'll
 also want to do a little research on your hosting provider's
providers
-
 they should have redundant uplinks to at least two of the larger
pipes
 (abovenet, UUNet, gblX, etc). They should provide you with evidence
of
 their
 uptime (MRTG charting) - as you see downtimes for one routing
interface,
 there should be significant jumps for the others to show that
they're
in
 fact picking up the slack. This is what I believe the CCIE
certifications
 were meant to teach people - becoming conversant with the various
 protocols
 (OSPF, RIP, HSRP, insert TLA here) and how to configure them to make
the
 Beast happy.
 
 As for keeping your application/database transactions synchronized,
that
 could fill a book in it's own right. You're better off dumping the
 responsibility onto somebody that's done it before.
 
 When everything is set up, you'll want to document and test a
disaster
 recovery plan.

Hi Douglas,

Thanks for the help. I reinstalled Office...no luck.

Make sure the you have a Class Path setup for the package you are trying to
use in ColdFusion Administrator (located under Java).

cfscript
mailerObj = CreateObject(Java,mailer.mainMailer);
/cfscript

If the class constructor takes arguments, simple call the init() function
and pass the args in the appropriate order.

cfscript
mailerObj = CreateObject(Java,mailer.mainMailer);
mailerObj.init(arg1,arg2,#arg3#,...);

Joining Verity Search Results and Query

2002-05-13 Thread Smith, Daron [PA]

I'm attempting to join a verity search result and a query into one query,
for some reason when I dump the joined query to cfdump I get wrong
information in the columns.  For example I get score for the identifier from
my database query and for lastedit date I get title.  Individually both
queries have the proper data in the proper places.  Has anyone experienced
this before?  Is this an SQL problem or a CF one?  I've tried both Join and
Where neither seem to work properly.

 My queries are as follows:
!--- Initial Verity Search --

cfsearch name = results

!---Query for extended record info---

cfquery name=articles datasource=memberdb 
select article_id,
article_title, article_lasteditdt, cat_name, cat_parentid
from pi_articles,
pi_site_map
where article_active = 1
and article_parentcat =
cat_id
order by article_lasteditdt
desc
/cfquery

!---Joined Query--

 cfquery name=results1 dbtype=query
  Select results.Key, articles.article_title as title,
article_LastEditDT, articles.cat_Name as Issue, articles.article_ID,
articles.article_Title as T1
  From results, articles 
  Inner Join results on results.key = articles.article_ID!--- I've
tried both Join and Where neither seem to work properly ---
Order by LastEditDT DESC
  /cfquery

MX review by Yankee Group

2002-05-13 Thread Andy Ousterhout

13. Macromedia Warms Up ColdFusion
  Application Infrastructure  Software Platforms
  by Robert Perry
  Event Summary

  On April 29, Macromedia announced ColdFusion MX, an update to the early
Web application platform originally offered by Allaire. ColdFusion MX is a
development platform that runs on J2EE application servers.

  Market Analysis

  The success of Java as a server development language has raised questions
about the future of ColdFusion. ColdFusion was very successful as a
development and deployment platform for Web applications. It was an early
entrant and offered a easy to use scripting language that worked well for
many developers. Today, it enjoys the support of a large developer community
and a host of third-party applications. A 2001 Yankee Group survey showed
that it remained a popular corporate application platform with 13% of
respondents indicating they were running applications on ColdFusion.

  Yet, it wasn't Java and everyone is talking about Java, .NET, and Web
services. ColdFusion seemed destined to gradually fade away as these newer
development platforms continued their momentum. ColdFusion MX not only
breathes life into ColdFusion, it applies it strengths in ease of use and
rapid application delivery to the harder to use J2EE platform. ColdFusion
developers can transfer their skills to the Java platform seeing the
benefits of its highly scalable architecture.

  Conclusions/Recommendations

a.. The Macromedia MX rollout shows the company understands the needs of
users by offering the tools to create rich applications that are easier to
use while offering a more enjoyable interaction and the requirements of
developers' tools to build these applications rapidly.


b.. Corporate IT groups wondering what to do with their ColdFusion
applications and their ColdFusion developers can wonder no more. They should
adopt ColdFusion MX and migrate their existing applications to the scalable
J2EE platform.

can this be done?

2002-05-13 Thread Jeff Fongemie

Hello cf-talk,

  I have an existing project where a form takes a field name and
  inserts in in a row name in an Access database.

  So, we have about 1000 names in the database as one name (firstname
  lastname). Now, the client changes
  his mind, and wants to be able to sort by last name, firstname.

  Yes, this was discussed prior to, and was deemed not needed.

  Is there a way, to somehow break up the full name into 2 fields, say
  by using the space as a separator?  I would only need to do this
  once as it is an event. Could I make two new fields, last_name and
  first_name, then get the fullname, break it up using the space, then
  insert first_name, then last_name?

  Is this even possible? This would have been so much easier if client
  said yes to this at the design stage!

How can I modify the output window? Do I have to write the output to a file

I am not sure about in Access.  In T-SQL you have functions like charindex,
and subsrtring and right, and left that would make it easy to do this all in
SQL.  Using access I don't think you have those functions, however you can
use CF to do it, and use the space as a list delimiter.  It would be time
consuming if it's a big db, and it would not scale at all :)

RE: can this be done?

2002-05-13 Thread Andy Ewings

You need to select just the surname part in your select list and then order
by that.  e.g. if your field is called name try sommat like the
following..

SELECT name, LEFT(name,CHARINDEX( ,name)) as 'fname',
RIGHT(name,CHARINDEX( ,name)) as 'sname'
FROM table
ORDER by sname

This assumes that your data is all ok - i.e. all confors to the format
fname sname. i.e. if there is someone who's first or surnames have a space
in them then you are a bit stuffed.  I have no idea if this will work in
access but should work in SQL.  Sticky tape job but there you
go..

Yes, this is certainly possible. Access has the necessary string functions
to support this within SQL statements, and you could approach this in many
ways - you could do a one-time, offline data transformation, and rewrite
your code to work with the new table design, or you could incorporate the
transformation process into your existing CF code. I'd recommend the first
option, myself.

I'll also take this opportunity to say that, despite the client's initial
desires, there's no reason that you had to use one field, even if that's how
the client wanted to see the data. It's a good idea, for exactly this
reason, to break your data into its smallest components, so that you don't
have to transform it later. Even if your client didn't want to see the two
fields as separate, you could certainly have handled that in your CF code,
and still had the two separate fields in the database.

cfquery name=myQuery

I'd run a query through the table, picking up the names, breaking them in 
two using FindNoCase( ,Name,1) and grabbing to the left and right of the 
space.  Then write the data back into the database into the two new fields 
you've created.

(I don't give the customer the choice on this sort of thing, because they

It can be done in access...

Create two field within your table for first_name and last_name

Then

cfquery name=queryname datasoure=datasource

Update 
table
set 
first_name = left(fullname, instr(fullname,' ')),
last_name=right(fullname, instrrev(fullname,' '))

/cfquery

This should work.  I haven't tried it so there might be some logical
error I haven't thought of but the functions are in access to achieve
the solution.

Access SQL

2002-05-13 Thread Eric Dawson

starting to get frustrated...

Trying to do something quick but I can't find the syntax to make it work.

3 tables in access
S (SID, Name)
R (RID, Cert)
C (CID, SID, RID, Status)

sample data.
S (Eric,Bill,Tara)
R (Filing,Ethics)
C (1,Eric,Filing,A,
   2,Eric,Ethics,A,
   3,Tara,Ethics,A)

I need to get all the Requirements for each staff and check to see if there 
is a certification record. In one Access query...

Something like...
SELECT
   S.Name,
   R.Cert,
   C.Status,
FROM S, R LEFT JOIN C ON (R.RID = C.RID and S.SID = C.SID)

to paraphrase: all staff (S) boxed with Requirements (R) with C if a record 
exists.

Query Results
Sid  Cert   Status
Eric Filing A
Eric Ethics A
Bill Filing NULL
Bill Ethics NULL
Tara Filing NULL
Tara Ethics A

I know there is an easy answer, I just can't find the syntax to do this.

Hello cf-talk,

  I have an existing project where a form takes a field name and
  inserts in in a row name in an Access database.

  So, we have about 1000 names in the database as one name (firstname
  lastname). Now, the client changes
  his mind, and wants to be able to sort by last name, firstname.

  Yes, this was discussed prior to, and was deemed not needed.

  Is there a way, to somehow break up the full name into 2 fields, say
  by using the space as a separator?  I would only need to do this
  once as it is an event. Could I make two new fields, last_name and
  first_name, then get the fullname, break it up using the space, then
  insert first_name, then last_name?

  Is this even possible? This would have been so much easier if client
  said yes to this at the design stage!

I planned for something like this before and depending on the data, it 
might be more complicated than you think. The problem comes in when you 
have people with middle name, middle initials, Jr., Sr., III, etc. 
These things don't fit easily into a break at the first whitespace plan. 
Of course, if you don't actually have that kind of data, there's no 
problem. Change it once and never go back because eventually you will have 
that problem.

Take a look at the data and see what kind of anomalies exist in the field 
before you proceed.

Yes, this is certainly possible. Access has the necessary string functions
to support this within SQL statements, and you could approach this in many
ways - you could do a one-time, offline data transformation, and rewrite
your code to work with the new table design, or you could incorporate the
transformation process into your existing CF code. I'd recommend the first
option, myself.

I'll also take this opportunity to say that, despite the client's initial
desires, there's no reason that you had to use one field, even if that's how
the client wanted to see the data. It's a good idea, for exactly this
reason, to break your data into its smallest components, so that you don't
have to transform it later. Even if your client didn't want to see the two
fields as separate, you could certainly have handled that in your CF code,
and still had the two separate fields in the database.

RE: can this be done?

2002-05-13 Thread Shawn Grover

Yes, it can be done.  But it will require manual review afterwards.

I'd probably just right a quick and dirty CF page to do this work for you (a
bit easier to understand/code than T-SQL), or if you have the skills, use
SQL directly.

However, what about cases where the name is something like John Van Dusen
?  Is the Van portion a middle name, or part of the last name?  How do you
write that logic into the code?  Hence the reason I say you need a manual
review afterwards.  (or before, to be certain you do not have any of these
situations.)

If you are going the CF route, then you might be able to use the list
functions to do this.  For instance:

cfscript
sFullName = Shawn Grover;
sFirstName = ListGetAt(sFullName, 1,  );
sLastName = ListGetAt(sLastName, 2,  );
/cfscript

Or you can be more elaborate, and get the first name, then using the
left/right functions, strip that string from the full name, and assume the
rest is the last name.

My thoughts

It can be done in access...

Create two field within your table for first_name and last_name

Then

cfquery name=queryname datasoure=datasource

Update 
table
set 
first_name = left(fullname, instr(fullname,' ')),
last_name=right(fullname, instrrev(fullname,' '))

/cfquery

This should work.  I haven't tried it so there might be some logical

the solution.

I am not sure about in Access.  In T-SQL you have functions like
charindex,
and subsrtring and right, and left that would make it easy to do this
all in
SQL.  Using access I don't think you have those functions, however you
can
use CF to do it, and use the space as a list delimiter.  It would be
time
consuming if it's a big db, and it would not scale at all :)

next previous with grouped output

2002-05-13 Thread jbeer

Hello all,

I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around doing a next page type
output where the query output is grouped.

Basically, the table has products made up of three records (each) that are
output as one.  I wish the differences were simply attributes to I could
normalize the product table, but unfortunately, they need to be treated as
seperate products.

The number of records returned is NOT always going to be three times the
number of products listed. Sometimes each product will only have one record,
and sometimes up to three.

Any ideas??

How about really easy.  You set up a where that looks for whatever they
entered.

Select name
from personnel
where name like '%#form.firstname#%'
or name like '%#form.lastname#%'

I mean it wouldn't be exact but there shouldn't be to many over lapping
names.  Not a lot of people out there with a last name containing Tim or bob
or whatever.  It wouldn't be exact but it would probably fit the middle

Yes,

Just create the two new columns and do like you suggested, find the
first space and insert the name into the firstname column and then copy
the remaining length of the string into the lastname column minus the
space.  Then run a quick output to visually inspect the contents of the
fields.  It'll be a small pain to do but lesson learned: never let the
client define the database.  :)

RE: next previous with grouped output

2002-05-13 Thread Bryan Love

use a DISTINCT clause in your SELECT statement.  That way each product will
only have one record and the rest of the problem solves itself...

Subject: next previous with grouped output


Hello all,

I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around doing a next page type
output where the query output is grouped.

Basically, the table has products made up of three records (each) that are
output as one.  I wish the differences were simply attributes to I could
normalize the product table, but unfortunately, they need to be treated as
seperate products.

The number of records returned is NOT always going to be three times the
number of products listed. Sometimes each product will only have one record,
and sometimes up to three.

Any ideas??

Re: MacBinary Xtraction Component 1.0

2002-05-13 Thread Jon Hall

Most likely it can, after looking at the source it is a very simple COM
object that doesn't return anything that CF might choke on. The key function
is the ConvertMacFile function. In that function these two lines would be
key, and they would look exactly the same in cfscript without the Set
keyword, and adding semicolons.

Set MacBin = CreateObject(Softwing.MacBinary)
 bRetVal = MacBin.ConvertFromMacBinary(File,strCurrentTempFile)

CreateObject in VBScript does the same thing as cfscript's CreateObject. The
second line is calling the ConvertFromMacBinary method with the uploaded
filename as the first argument, and a temporary filename to write out the
actual file minus the MacBinary stuff. It goes on to overwrite the original
uploaded file with the temporary file as long as the COM object didn't
return an error.
Thanks for pointing this component out, new bookmark for me...

As a side note, that has to be the most readable VBScript I have ever seen
(still sucks though :)) . Kudos to them...

with a C++ component for fixing MacBinary uploaded files. Being an ASP site,
they have written an ASP page for running this component. Is there a way of

RE: can this be done?

2002-05-13 Thread Andy Ousterhout

Some cautions when you go through the potential redesign and subsequent
parsing:
1.  If you are dealing with far eastern names (Hebrew and Arabic as well if
my memory serves me right), names have a different structure then we do in
Western culture.

2.  If these names where input by the individuals themselves and the program
did not do any clean-up before storing, You may have to deal with the
following sorts of combinations:

Andy Ousterhout
Andrew C. Ousterhout
A Channing Ousterhout
AC Ousterhout
Mr Andrew Channing Ousterhout, Senior, Ph.d, JD, and other god-like
qualifications...

You might want to check to see if anyone has some good name-parsing code.

Good luck

Subject: RE: can this be done?


 I have an existing project where a form takes a field name
 and inserts in in a row name in an Access database.

 So, we have about 1000 names in the database as one name
 (firstname lastname). Now, the client changes his mind, and
 wants to be able to sort by last name, firstname.

 Yes, this was discussed prior to, and was deemed not needed.

 Is there a way, to somehow break up the full name into 2 fields,
 say by using the space as a separator? I would only need to do
 this once as it is an event. Could I make two new fields,
 last_name and first_name, then get the fullname, break it up
 using the space, then insert first_name, then last_name?

 Is this even possible? This would have been so much easier if
 client said yes to this at the design stage!

Yes, this is certainly possible. Access has the necessary string functions
to support this within SQL statements, and you could approach this in many
ways - you could do a one-time, offline data transformation, and rewrite
your code to work with the new table design, or you could incorporate the
transformation process into your existing CF code. I'd recommend the first
option, myself.

I'll also take this opportunity to say that, despite the client's initial
desires, there's no reason that you had to use one field, even if that's how
the client wanted to see the data. It's a good idea, for exactly this
reason, to break your data into its smallest components, so that you don't
have to transform it later. Even if your client didn't want to see the two
fields as separate, you could certainly have handled that in your CF code,
and still had the two separate fields in the database.

RE: How do i pass FORM variables from one action page to another one ?

2002-05-13 Thread Bill Grover

No it won't work in v4.01.  Believe me I've tried.  Prior to v4.5 form
fields were a pseudo-structure.  The only way I've gotten anything to work
is by evauating the form.fieldname.

calling a java method

2002-05-13 Thread Florin Chitu

Hi,
I have a java package, from which I load a class.
This class has several methods, out of which some return values , some do
different jobs (like sending mail )

I have no problems getting the returned value from methods like :

  public static String returnS() {
String mystr = ok;
return mystr;
  }

to get the value I'm using :
cfset retVal = mailer.returnS()

Are there some specific cfm tags that I'm supposed to use in order to
execute a method that is defined as void , in the java program ?

Thank you,

Florin
