RE: File Upload to Database
Dave is right (as usual). You might be interested in this applet that enables very efficient file uploads. It does client side compression, progress meter, multiple file uploads and a host of other functions. There's even a shell extension which enables you to upload directly to the server from your windows explorer (win only). I have some ASP code that plays well with CF if you decide to use this tool.

I have already built a content management system that works locally (Inside the US, on our network) via web browser that works great, and if that were all I needed that would be cool. Unfortunately, the new content providers are going to be in France, England and Germany. The Content Management ToolBox will still work for them, but uploading files via the internal network won't (The internal networks will remain mutually exclusive, so no shares). So, I need a quick tutorial on inserting files (.doc, .pdf, etc) into a database (SQL Server 7sp3) I am already aware of MercuryFusion's FileToFromDB but it seems to be limited to inserts and selects and I need the ability to update as well. FTP is out of the question at the moment because of IT Security concerns. Rather than store the files in the database, which tends to be terribly inefficient, why not just allow users to upload files via HTTP file upload forms, and store them on your web server's filesystem? You can then store a pointer in the database to the filesystem location.

RE: Accessing Session Data (Works! - Sort of)
Umm, is it safe to have that getfile.cfm on your server? I hope it has restrictions and is not the old, infamous getfile.cfm. At 09:05 PM 6/27/02 -0700, you wrote: After playing around for a little while, I realized that you could just manipulate the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies to view each Session's data. Check it out here: http://www.valsurf.com/sessionBrowser The only thing that I came across is that you will always be able to view Session data for each CFID/CFTOKEN combination - even if that particular Session was not contained within your current cfapplication setup. If you would like to download the source and tinker around with this notion of viewing Session data, get it here: http://www.brdwrks.com/v4/controller/getfile.cfm?file=../downloads/sessi onBrowser.zip In order for this tool to work for you cfapplication, unzip the file under the root of you application (where application.cfm exists) - it should create the subfolder sessionBrowser. If the CFID/CFTOKEN combination you are viewing did not come from the current cfapplication new session data will be created for the user. However, if you have only one cfapplication on your server, this will work magically! Please post back if you have any results with this thing! Enjoy!

But, there is ( sort of) a fix. You can create an application variable (A structure, perhaps), For every user on your site, give them there own place in the application variable structure. Make the key their username (or userID, or whatever) and the value the date they last accessed (update it in OnRequestEnd.cfm). Then you have a list of all users currently on the site, which you can access using the Application variable.

Re: ssl cert with many domains
You can buy wildcard certs for any hostname on a domain (Geotrust sells them for about $500 I think), but I don't know about wildcard domain certs... Can I get a cert with more than one domain on it? I'm planning on putting the sites I develop on my hosted server and charge them a nominal hosting fee. I'm going to try to use conditional logic based upon the value of cgi.server_name to point them to the correct app. I think this will work fine, but one concern is allowing them to use ssl for orders. I have a certificate on the site already, but only for my primary domain. Is it possible to have more than one cert for a server? Do multi domain-certificates exist? __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Transforming XML with XSL in CFMX
Consider this situation. Say I have an XML file such as records record id=101 firstnameJoe/firstname lastnameBloggs/lastname /recordid record id=102 firstnameJohn/firstname lastnameDoe/lastname /recordid /records Now to convert this to HTML I could use use a stylesheet, but what if I wanted to give the user the option of sorting by id, or firstname, or lastname...I would have to create 6 stylesheetsor I could have a stylesheet that took parameters, like this: xsl:param name=sortKey select='firstname'/ xsl:param name=sortOrder select='ascending'/ The question is, can I send these parameters from CFMX directly, or maybe by going through the Java classes themselves.
