RE: SQL Server virus

2002-05-24 Thread Peter Tilbrook

Thank you Michael.

I made it an SOT in case I was flamed by people. It's a sad fact that many
installs of SQL Server, version 7 at least, are not as carefully wrapped up
as they should be. The actual artical came from Australian IT - a well
respected source of many things IT related downunder:

http://australianit.news.com.au/

Just to let ppl know. The default install of Microsoft SQL Server (at least
version 7, all I could afford) - the default super user/administrator
settings are NOT secure. Further info at:

Not too off topic. I posted this to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list a day or
so back and it's covered in the latest issue of Fusion Authority. As many CF
programmers and shops use SQL, it's an important security issue. Thanks for
posting it.

Was not copied over.. I have been searching all over for it and every

Hasn't Ben himself indicated that an MX version of his own classic tome/s is
due?

Personally I am still having a ball with CF5. And the Forrest Gump

In all ego, I suggest getting this book as we're doing a great job with it.
:)
Outside of Ego, I suggest getting at least 2 or 3 of the MX books coming
out. The logic is that there is so much to look at and cover that one book
will most probably be missing things. And remember that these books are all
business expense tax deductions. I'm declaring almost my entire Amazon bill
from the last year on my taxes (and its all legal). :)

  I recommend this one
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0072225564/instantcoldfu-20
because I wrote it (Michael Dinowitz is doing a lot of the tech editing).
  I know that Ben Forta is updated his two popular books (WACK and Advanced
Development).  I would expect an update to Mastering ColdFusion and
Programming ColdFusion.  There are others listed on Amazon.

cfobject hanging CF5 server

2002-05-24 Thread Craig Dudley

Morning all,

Has anyone ever come across a problem with running java with cfobject?

At present we run a fair few java CFX tags which are all working perfectly,
however, one of our sites uses a java class to encrypt user details and post
them to a credit card processing company, this is done with cfobject, up
until yesterday it's worked fine, after installing the latest MS security
patches, cfobject simply hangs and eventually restarts the Coldfusion
application server.

We are using CF5 Enterprise on Win2K Server SP2, anyone got any ideas?

Regards, Craig.

RE: CFTRY/CFCATCH Database errors

2002-05-24 Thread Philip Arnold - ASP

 If I've got a query and for some odd reason the database
 server goes down, of course my query will fail.
 How can I catch the error due to the server being down and display a
 static/temp page instead?
 My code is below and it appears to be correct but it will not
 catch the error and redirect.

Remember that rubbish SQL will also cause a CFCATCH TYPE=database to
hit

I'm working with the presumption you're using CF5, as I'm not 100% sure
this works with CF4.x

What I'd suggest is looping through the CFCATCH.TagContent array and see
what's in there for different errors, that way you know if the dbServer
is down, or if it's rubbish SQL

RE: Repost: CFFTP 500 Invalid PORT Command.

2002-05-24 Thread Philip Arnold - ASP

 Does anybody know what causes Error 500 invalid port Command
 using CFFTP?

Which web server are you CFFTPing to

Some don't allow FTP access unless it's got the proper header
information

Also, CFFTP requires a certain amount of responses to work, so if it's a
limited FTP server, then it might be causing problems

Re: Migrating from CF4.5+WinNT to CF5(or MX)/Linux

2002-05-24 Thread Patric Stumpe

Well folks, I'm a bit stuck with retrieving data from a
mySQL-datasource which was exported from ms-access via a little nifty
utility called MyAccess. The problem is that the text in the db has
german special characters. Since I exported the data to mySQL I'm able
to retrieve all the data but the special-chars are shown as symbols
'n' stuff. I took textpad and looked into the data-files mySQL
generates for the datasource and they do contain the german chars.
Any help out there?

PS Hi Jerry,

PS thanks for your reply. I'll make sure to have a close look at the
PS db-structure before converting.

PS Patric


JJ I've done this on 5 projects, now.

JJ The three things that bit me repeatedly:

JJ Boolean types in Access were not the same in mySQL. Went with int (1/0).

JJ Filenames are case sensative all of a sudden. We thought we had followed good 
naming conventions.  We had, but not perfectly! Most significant were image files and 
rollovers.

JJ Moving the dbs was interesting, making sure the dbs were ported in the correct 
order. (constraints forced the proper sequence)

JJ But it really wasn't very difficult.

First of all, what type of field is Costeach in the database? If it's
a number, don't take DollarFormat anywhere near it! - you also should
strip all , out of the numbers as SQL treats them as a field separater

Starting a string with $ means it's not a number, you should strip
those out before you do anything with them

OK, now I understand. Costeach is a number in the Access table.

However, is there any way to make the number, let's say 1300.50 appear as $1,300.50 
when displayed, but as 1300.50 (stripped the $, etc) when updating? 

Thanks.

Subject: RE: update a dollarformat field


 I must be missing some kind of syntax. Anyone can help please?

 I'm getting the error below when I do this update:

 cfquery name=update datasource=purchases
 UPDATE purchases SET Costeach = #Dollarformat(Costeach)#

 on a field that is dollar formatted as:
 input type=text name=costeach
 value=#Dollarformat(getpo.costeach)#

 The error is:
 An error occurred while evaluating the expression:
 #Dollarformat(Costeach)#
 Parameter 1 of function DollarFormat which is now $300.00
 must be a number
 The error occurred while processing an element with a general
 identifier of (#Dollarformat(Costeach)#),...

First of all, what type of field is Costeach in the database? If it's
a number, don't take DollarFormat anywhere near it! - you also should
strip all , out of the numbers as SQL treats them as a field separater

Starting a string with $ means it's not a number, you should strip
those out before you do anything with them

RE: ot-Logout alert message

2002-05-24 Thread Chris Lofback

With JavaScript this is tricky, but you could use something like this:

SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript
if (confirm('You have been inactibe for x minutes.  Logout?')) {
// logout code here
};
/SCRIPT

This only gives them OK or Cancel as options.  I don't think you can
prompt and set your own button labels.  Also, since the message box is
modal, I don't think the browser could not load a new page until the prompt
was answered so you couldn't automatically send them to a logout page if
they didn't respond.

Heirmenu

2002-05-24 Thread phumes1

Hi,

Has anyone used the heirmenu from (www.dhtmlmenu.com)? My problem is I'm 
using frames and my dropdown navigation menu is in the top frame and when 
clicked does *not* overlay the bottom frame.

Is there a version of heirmenu that allows overlaying on frames? If so, 
which one?

Sure, there are some more database calls, but it all depends on what
you're

permissions system that involves cascading permissions and some other
tidbits.  When the user logs in, their permissions are pulled through
recursive custom tags and set to the session scope.  It's a one time
thing
for each login so any extra load is really not noticeable.

Yes in the Query you would use:

AS LONG AS Costeach in a numeric field in the
database. If it is a MONEY this try using: 
#VAL(CostEach)# 



Randy Adkins

OK, now I understand. Costeach is a number in the Access table.

However, is there any way to make the number, let's say 1300.50 appear
as $1,300.50 when displayed, but as 1300.50 (stripped the $, etc) when
updating?

There are smarter/faster/bettter ways. But here is one.

Create a second field, and have that be the name for selection purposes.
Then sort by actual name.

When you insert into the db, put the data in two fields, RealName and
NewName.

If you don't want to precalc this data, or can't , you can do it live, but
it will cost.

I think a simple mask of words you DONT care about can solve this.

Build a list of words that do not matter for the sort.
cfset IgnoreList=university,of,the,college,institute

select em all.
create a list of the name column ValueList()
replace each word in the ignore list with  (cfloop through ignore list,
replacing with newNameList with )
list to array
add a column to the query, populating with array (queryAddColumn
query of query to get the list for A, order by original name field

It ain't quick, but it might work.

What you have to do is before you update;
form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEach,$,,all);
form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEachall);

That way it's removed the excess characters

SOT: Oracle query question

2002-05-24 Thread Chris Lofback

Lowdown:
What is the optimum arrangement of WHERE clauses when querying an Oracle
database?

Details:
I'm trying to optimize my CF queries running against an Oracle 8i database.
I know that conventional wisdom is to put highly selective columns (those
with many unique values) first in the WHERE clause so that the result set is
as small as possible for the following clauses.  But I recall reading
somewhere that Oracle actually processes WHERE clauses in reverse
order--from last to first.  Does anyone on the list know for sure about
this?  And does the order/placement of indexed columns significantly affect
the query speed?

damn Netscape 4.x!

2002-05-24 Thread Jeff Brown

All,

I have a page that displays perfectly in IE 5.5, but shows up blank in
Netscape 4.79.  Not only does it render blank, but it takes about 30 seconds
to render blank.  (no dynamic content).  When I do a View Source in
Netscape, the source is there.  However, in the browser, I am only seeing
the background color.

I know that open ended table tags have caused this problem for me in the
past, but there are no problems with table tags in this document.  All the
CSS elements linked to the page pass the TopStyle3 NN4.x validation, and the
page's HTML passes the CFStudio 5 Document validation.  Can anyone think of
some other reasons this might be happening??  Thanks!

RE: Oracle query question

2002-05-24 Thread Dave Watts

 Lowdown:
 What is the optimum arrangement of WHERE clauses when 
 querying an Oracle database?
 
 Details:
 I'm trying to optimize my CF queries running against an 
 Oracle 8i database. I know that conventional wisdom is to 
 put highly selective columns (those with many unique values) 
 first in the WHERE clause so that the result set is as 
 small as possible for the following clauses. But I recall 
 reading somewhere that Oracle actually processes WHERE 
 clauses in reverse order--from last to first. Does anyone 
 on the list know for sure about this? And does the order/
 placement of indexed columns significantly affect the query 
 speed?

I sincerely doubt that any modern enterprise database platform (Oracle,
Sybase, MS SQL Server for example) will favor one ordering of joins or
filters over another. I don't know that for sure, but that's my strong
suspicion. In any case, this is easy enough to determine. Just write the
same query twice, and test it with Oracle's equivalent of SHOWPLAN, whatever
that is (EXPLAIN PLAN, maybe?). I'll bet that the two queries will have the
same query plan, and will perform equally well.

Re: ahhh query

2002-05-24 Thread Sharon Diorio

Wow, you do know that cfscript would clean up that code something fierce.

cfscript
places = queryNew(name);
queryAddRow(places, 4);
querySetCell(places, 'name', 'University of Alabama The', 1);
querySetCell(places, 'name', 'Florida State University', 2);
querySetCell(places, 'name', 'The BlahBlah Institute', 3);
querySetCell(places, 'name', 'The University of Chicago', 4);
/cfscript

cfscript is your friend.  Don't fear it. :-)

 There are smarter/faster/bettter ways. But here is one.
 
 Create a second field, and have that be the name for selection purposes.
 Then sort by actual name.
 
 When you insert into the db, put the data in two fields, RealName and
 NewName.
 
 If you don't want to precalc this data, or can't , you can do it live, but
 it will cost.
 
 I think a simple mask of words you DONT care about can solve this.
 
 Build a list of words that do not matter for the sort.
 cfset IgnoreList=university,of,the,college,institute
 
 select em all.
 create a list of the name column ValueList()
 replace each word in the ignore list with  (cfloop through ignore list,
 replacing with newNameList with )
 list to array
 add a column to the query, populating with array (queryAddColumn
 query of query to get the list for A, order by original name field
 
 It ain't quick, but it might work.

 I have a template topped by the alphabet, all letters are links and they
 need to display the correct info from the database on the page when clicked,
 However the info that is being sorted will be names such as.
 
 University of Alabama   (A)
 Florida State University (F)
 The BlahBlah Institute(B)
 The University of Chicago  (C)
 
 
 so basically the word I need to check the first letter of could be ANYHWERE

RE: Oracle query question

You're right, Oracle reads from the bottom up.  It's good practice to place
your most limiting conditions at the end of the where clause, and work your
way up from there.

It could be one tiny little forgotten tag .. Or something not closed

If any of the tags are not nested correctly .. Or not closed properly

Run it through the validator in Studio, that usually points out mistakes

NS also doesn't like open td or tr tags - that can screw up a page

With JavaScript this is tricky, but you could use something like this:

SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript
if (confirm('You have been inactibe for x minutes.  Logout?')) {
// logout code here
}else {
// continue code here, if any
}
/SCRIPT

This only gives them OK or Cancel as options.  I don't think you can
prompt and set your own button labels.  Also, since the message box is
modal, I don't think the browser can load a new page until the prompt is
answered so you couldn't automatically clear the prompt and send them to a
logout page if they didn't respond.

Thanks much Phillip. One further question though. 

In Access I have the costeach field setup as numeric. Each time a figure is entered 
with cents after, it rounds it off to the next amount (350.60 becomes 360). How can I 
keep it as 350.50 and then at some point have this number calculated via a qty number 
and total?

 OK, now I understand. Costeach is a number in the Access table.

 However, is there any way to make the number, let's say
 1300.50 appear as $1,300.50 when displayed, but as 1300.50
 (stripped the $, etc) when updating?

What you have to do is before you update;
form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEach,$,,all);
form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEachall);

That way it's removed the excess characters

Janine:

If you're trying to stick with your existing JS functionality and keep it
all JS, then I don't know of any other option for prompting because any JS
prompt will be modal.  You could try writing your countdown to the status
bar but it may not be noticed by the user or they may have their status bar
hidden.  Or you can open a new window and write the prompt to it.  Not real
tidy but it may be your only other option without going to something like
Java.

Logging user footprints

2002-05-24 Thread Dowdell, Jason G

Hi all,

I'm currently working on an enterprise level (clusterable and such) security
system and I'm working on the application logging aspect of it now.  I've
built several security systems in the past and have done logging before so
it's no big deal.  Typically I'll log the remote_address, http_referer,
http_user_agent,
script_name, query_string, date/time and some other application specific
items.

My question is whether or not you guys see anything I could add to this
list.  I have a custom tag that logs every action the user takes in the
system
so I have the action information as well.  I'm just not sure if I'm missing
anything.

Any thoughts?

cftransaction and single thread

2002-05-24 Thread chad

I cant find in any of the books if all the queries in a CFTransaction block 
are single threaded.

Like if i have three querys in the CFTransaction:

cftransaction
Query #1: Insert into DB

Query #2: Select from DB to get highest number of Query #1 and increment by 1

Query #3: Insert into DB using the UID created in query #2
/cftransaction

Will CFTransaction Only allow user 1 to do this, and user 2 has to wait?

Im afraid Query #2 will get bad data.  Will CFLOCK around a CFTransaction help?

Thanks!

This site is pretty nice http://www.searchengineworld.com/ the thing is
though, the biggest place for you to get higher ranking is from reciprical
links. So you would need to do a type of link exchange program between like

True Combobox for HTML?

2002-05-24 Thread Shawn Grover

Anyone know of a custom tag or something that offers a true combo box for
HTML?

The tags I have seen in the exchange are typically a text box which will use
JS to select the appropriate item in a select box.  However, we need to
allow our users to type a value into a combo box, where the value is either
a new value, or an existing value.  If it's an existing value, then we need
it to auto fill the text entry area with the nearest matching value as the
user types.  In VB, I'd use the combo box in it's default style.

Thanks.

RE: cftransaction and single thread

2002-05-24 Thread Philip Arnold - ASP

 I cant find in any of the books if all the queries in a
 CFTransaction block are single threaded.

 Like if i have three querys in the CFTransaction:

 cftransaction
 Query #1: Insert into DB

 Query #2: Select from DB to get highest number of Query #1
 and increment by 1

 Query #3: Insert into DB using the UID created in query #2
 /cftransaction

 Will CFTransaction Only allow user 1 to do this, and user 2
 has to wait?

CFTRANSACTION does all queries one after the other - if one fails it
rolls it back

What db Engine are you running, if it's a real engine like SQL Server or
Oracle, you can do query 1 and 2 in the same SQL block, meaning you
don't need the CFTransaction

 Im afraid Query #2 will get bad data.  Will CFLOCK around a
 CFTransaction help?

CFLOCK is only to do with Application, Client and Session variables - it
and CFTRANSACTION have nothing to do with each other (unless you're
putting a query into one of those scopes, in which case - DON'T do it
via CFQUERY)

Who do we contact to report abuse on the MM Exchange?

2002-05-24 Thread Shawn Grover

Does anyone know the contact email to report problems on the MM Developer's
Exchange?

In particular, I found a custom tag (Combo Box by Dave Miller) where if you
click the View Example link, you get nailed with pop-up ads (about 6 of
them), and never do get to view an example of the combo box.  Or, if the
sample is there, it get's lost in the clutter.  And of course, the pop-ups
are loosely associated with adult content (meaning it's not as explicit as
some I've seen).

To be fair, I cannot say if Dave Miller is the person responsible for this
situation.  But, the situation exists, and is not helpful when people are
looking for a combo box, so should be rectified.  (maybe I'm just having a
bad day though... ).

Thanks for the input.

Re: update a dollarformat field

2002-05-24 Thread Dina Hess

robert,

i guess phillip got busy :)...so i'll pinch hit for him...

in access design view, click on the field name then make sure
field size (general tab) is set to long integer and decimal
places is set to auto. that should eliminate your problem with
rounding.

if you want to multiply the value of costeach by a qty and
project the result as a total, you would do this in the select
statement of your query:

sum(costeach * qty) as total_costeach

then reference total_costeach for display.

just be sure to list any non-aggregate columns projected in your
select statement in a group by.

 Thanks much Phillip. One further question though.

 In Access I have the costeach field setup as numeric. Each time
a figure is entered with cents after, it rounds it off to the
next amount (350.60 becomes 360). How can I keep it as 350.50 and
then at some point have this number calculated via a qty number
and total?

  OK, now I understand. Costeach is a number in the Access

  However, is there any way to make the number, let's say
  1300.50 appear as $1,300.50 when displayed, but as 1300.50
  (stripped the $, etc) when updating?

 What you have to do is before you update;
 form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEach,$,,all);
 form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEachall);

 That way it's removed the excess characters

Yes, we have. It works quite well: You write your query in Access, then use
CFSTOREDPROC to access it. Cut the processing time on a few of our pages
from over 4 seconds to just under 400 ms.

You can also access a query as a table, of course, but then PROCPARAM is
right out...

Thank you Jon, and Mike.  I think the article Mike specified is the best
solution (in our case).  Unfortunately, we are mostly through our app, and
need to replace some selects with combo's.  On that note, it is not feasible
at this time for us to rewrite the code to populate the combo boxes.  So I
told we'll continue as is for now, and make these changes in a future
release of our web app.

then at some point have this number calculated via a qty number
and total?

 Subject: RE: update a dollarformat field


  OK, now I understand. Costeach is a number in the Access
table.
 
  However, is there any way to make the number, let's say
  1300.50 appear as $1,300.50 when displayed, but as 1300.50
  (stripped the $, etc) when updating?

 What you have to do is before you update;
 form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEach,$,,all);
 form.CostEach=ReplaceList(form.CostEachall);

 That way it's removed the excess characters

Yes, we have. It works quite well: You write your query in Access, then use
CFSTOREDPROC to access it. Cut the processing time on a few of our pages
from over 4 seconds to just under 400 ms.

You can also access a query as a table, of course, but then PROCPARAM is
right out...

Re: Access SQL stored procs

2002-05-24 Thread Joseph Thompson

You can set up a paramater query in Access that accepts CFPROCPRAM.
something like:

cfstoredproc datasource=AdvancedAccess procedure=CustomerOrders
  cfprocparam
type=in
cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer
dbvarname=get_OrderListForCustomerByID
value=1
  cfprocresult name=GetOrderItemsByCustomer
/cfstoredproc

(the database and code samples are also here:

CFCONTENT Woes

2002-05-24 Thread Tony Gruen

I forgot to change the subject line in my original post
--
Dear Listmembers,
I truly hate posting this question because I know it has been discussed,
albeit some time ago. However, combing through the archives and saved emails
has not proven fruitful yet.

We are building a file sharing system on our intranet. CFFile uploads from a
Mac go ok, but cannot be downloaded using CFContent. PC's can download the
Mac files, but not the Macs. Any resolution?

Array questions

2002-05-24 Thread Thane Sherrington

If I define a 2 dimensional array with info in it like this:

Element NameLowMark HighMarkAvgMark
1   Fred22  88  45
2   Bob 55  96  83

Is there a way to easily get the average of the average column (getting the 
lowest mark and highest should be easy with ArrayMin and ArrayMax), or 
would be better off with four single dimension arrays?

value ---
total = 0;

for(i = 1; i lt arrayLen(avgMark); i = i + 1){

No need to reinvent the wheel. How about

average = ArrayAvg(avgMark)

Don't think it will work on a 2D array but I don't see how your data fits a
two dimension array.

Help Please - Having trouble with cferror

2002-05-24 Thread David Schmidt

Hey all, I'm having a bit of a brain fart here.  I want to have a particular
site send the details of the error message when a message occurs.  The plan
I have is this, but it doesn't seem to be working.

\root\Application.cfm (contains a cferror tag, type=exception
mailto=myemailaddr template=errors/errorhandler.cfm ...)
\root\errors\Application.cfm (just holds a comment);
\root\errors\errorhandler.cfm (contains code to loop over the error object
if it exists, putting the messages in a cfmail tag)

I've been able to use cf code in an error template before (think I was
tinkering with it some time ago, can't find the code).

Anyone have an idea on what I might be missing?

Thanks All

Re: Help Please - Having trouble with cferror

2002-05-24 Thread BEN MORRIS

My understanding is that you can't use cf code at all in an error template.  You have 
access to a few vars.  You can use mailto in cferror to send an e-mail on error.  
You can use CF code in a cfcatch if you trap your error that way.

RE: Array questions

2002-05-24 Thread Timothy Heald

Didn't know there was an arrayAvg() function.  Should work on a multiple
dimension array like this:

arrayAvg(studentInfo[5])

 No need to reinvent the wheel. How about

 average = ArrayAvg(avgMark)

 Don't think it will work on a 2D array but I don't see how your
 data fits a
 two dimension array.

 Looks like a neat problem.  Lets see:

 CFSCRIPT

 !--- initialize the total variable to hold the sum of the array's
 value ---
 total = 0;

 for(i = 1; i lt arrayLen(avgMark); i = i + 1){
   total = total + avgMark[i];
 }

   average = total / arrayLen(avgMark);

 /CFSCRIPT

 That should do it right?

  If I define a 2 dimensional array with info in it like this:
 
  Element NameLowMark HighMarkAvgMark
  1   Fred22  88  45
  2   Bob 55  96  83
 
  Is there a way to easily get the average of the average column
  (getting the
  lowest mark and highest should be easy with ArrayMin and ArrayMax), or
  would be better off with four single dimension arrays?

 ArraySort() only works with 1 dimensional arrays.

RE: Help Please - Having trouble with cferror

2002-05-24 Thread Craig Thomas

Your code is most likely throwing an exception error, after which no CFML
can be processed. There are multiple error types which may be thrown
(exception, request, monitor and some other I can't remember).

Though you did not say it, I bet your cfmail tag is getting processed some
times (like when a request error is thrown),  leading you to believe the
code in the error template is buggy.

Use multiple error handling templates (in your application.cfm), something
like this:

cfparam name=ExceptionHandling default=1
cfif ExceptionHandling eq 1
cferror type=request template=errorrequest.cfm
mailto=#variables.ErrorEmail#
cferror type=exception template=errorexception.cfm
mailto=#variables.ErrorEmail#
/cfif

Forta's CF5 WACK book covers this in detail- HTH.

Re: Help Please - Having trouble with cferror

2002-05-24 Thread Jann VanOver

This WAS true with earlier versions, but the error page is MUCH more robust
now, starting with V 4.5 I think.

Are you trying to make it work with a V 4.0 CF Server?

 My understanding is that you can't use cf code at all in an error template.
 You have access to a few vars.  You can use mailto in cferror to send an
 e-mail on error.  You can use CF code in a cfcatch if you trap your error
 that way.
 
 David Schmidt [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/23/02 02:52PM 
 Hey all, I'm having a bit of a brain fart here.  I want to have a particular
 site send the details of the error message when a message occurs.  The plan
 I have is this, but it doesn't seem to be working.
 
 \root\Application.cfm (contains a cferror tag, type=exception
 mailto=myemailaddr template=errors/errorhandler.cfm ...)
 \root\errors\Application.cfm (just holds a comment);
 \root\errors\errorhandler.cfm (contains code to loop over the error object
 if it exists, putting the messages in a cfmail tag)
 
 I've been able to use cf code in an error template before (think I was
 tinkering with it some time ago, can't find the code).
 
 Anyone have an idea on what I might be missing?
 
 Thanks All
 
 David

RE: Sorting a 2 dimensionl array

2002-05-24 Thread todd

Kevin,

The one I pointed out at the Macromedia exchange works well.  Steer clear 
of one called ArrayTableSort however, it has a nice little bug in it (in 
fact, it inserted an empty element in the array which screwed up my 
app like you wouldn't believe).  The Sort2DArray works well and has passed 
our QA team (which doesn't mean much).

Man we have all these great array functions, and they only work on single
dimension arrays. Wish I had known more about that during the CFMX beta.
