RE: CF Mail Problem..
Thats how CFMAIL is supposed to work when you pass a query to it.
What you should do is use a CFLOOP query=queryname inside your
CFMAIL content section to output the data you need in the table.

Subject: CF Mail Problem..
Hello Forum,
Need Help.
I am trying to send data generated by a query using CFMAIL tag to a
recepient whose email is obtained from a Form.
However Instead of including and sending only one email
containing all the
rows returned by the query to the email address obtained
from the Form in
the previous page CFMAIL is sending multiple emails to the
same email
address
--one email for each record generate from the query. Thus each email
contains only one seperate record.
I cant understand why?
The recepient email address comes from the Form. The
contents of the email
is generated by the db query.
Any help will be much appreciated.
This is my code:
CFQUERY name= Get_Products DataSource=XYZ
Select * FROM Products WHERE product id=#Form.productid#
/CFQUERY
cfmail query=Get_Products
to=#Form.Email_Address#
from=myemail.com
subject=Product
type=HTML
!--- The variables #productid# and #Email_Address# come
from the Previous
Page (Form.cfm).
Table
TR
TD Productid: Get_Products.productid BR /TD
TDDetails: Get_Products.details BR /TD
TDModel : Get_Products.modelno BR /TD
/TR
/Table
/cfmail
The purpose is to send more details about the product
selected by the user
in the Form.cfm Page.
Thanks
Srimanta

For anyone wondering...with smaller files it really

about 30-40
percent faster than the old standby looping over the file

RE: SQL Text question from a beginner
My understanding of TEXT type fields is that there is only 16 bytes stored in the database, because the rest of the field's contents are stored elsewhere. And the 16 bytes are only a pointer to it. A TEXT field in SQl can hold up to 2,147,483,647 characters and cannot be used as variables or parameters in stored procedures. Not sure of the exact amount, but it's a WHOLE LOT of info. It's like a MEMO field in Access. A VARCHAR field is limited to 255 characters max, but as I understand it, a TEXT field is unlimited for most practical purposes. Other than setting up the table, and some considerations of searching large amounts of data, once you set the fields up, you access TEXT fields just the same way you access VARCHAR fields and there is no difference to how you work with them. But hold disk space allocations in mind, so dont just go and set up a whole bunch of TEXT fields rather than defining lengths in VARCHAR fields - you'll find your disk space gets out of control real fast. (or so I've been led to believe) Cheers Mike Kear AFP Webworks Windsor, NSW, Australia -Original Message- From: Mosh Teitelbaum [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 10:38 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SQL Text question from a beginner A whopping 16 characters? 8^) Actually, according to my SQL Server reference, the TEXT datatype can store 2,147,483,647 bytes. -- Mosh Teitelbaum evoch, LLC Tel: (301) 625-9191 Fax: (301) 933-3651 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.evoch.com/ -Original Message- From: Tony Weeg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 12:11 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SQL Text question from a beginner look at the datatype of text it holds 16 bytes of data, i believe. hth tony -Original Message- From: John Munyan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 01, 2002 12:04 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: SQL Text question from a beginner I am new to web development (if I can call what I am doing web development) and have a sql question and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

simple way to email my users.
We've been asked to add email alert functionality to a clients web site. The client is a recruitment company and wants to maintain a list of prospective candidates that can be automatically alerted when the company has new job openings. The clients wants to be able to manually add / remove names to the email list and to enable new job seekers to add themselves or modify their settings through their web site. The settings will be quite simple, a new job seeker can specify to receive alerts for 1) Software development jobs 2) Management jobs 3) all jobs When the recruitment company has a new job requirement they will type it up, assign it to a category, and then have an option to send it out to all the prospective job seekers who have requested for alerts in that category. Before the emails are sent out the company wants a list of all the recipients so that they can manually delete or add people from the list before the mailing is kicked off. I realize this is a simple project and there are numerous ways to get this done.

RE: Flash for data views : WAS Ben's J2EE Book, now new course t o be offered by MACR
Igor, I certainly am 'broad' when it comes to Macromedia :p. I am well aware of who works for/with MM and indeed I have spent a great deal of time on all the mentioned application alpha and beta apps and indeed I have seen some cool stuff. But what I am saying it not dont use it but more like search your library for existing code before deciding the Flash option. Its easy to jump on the bandwagon but its even easier to fall off it. FYI : no I dont use IE as my FTP app, I use command prompt, even better! Oh and as for viewing text docs in IE, sure you can do it, but can you edit them? for that I will stick with Notepad.

Using flash to present data IS like using IE for viewing Text Documents (sorta), but what's wrong with that? Viewing remote txt documents in IE is in no way inferior to notepad; in fact, I think it's better because you don't need to launch another application, and there are so many other things IE can do (as can Flash). Do you use IE for FTP? I think it is the best (and free-est) FTP Client I have ever used! What about IE for local folder browsing; or other web protocols? Like Flash, IE can be used for many things (and many out of the scope of what it is famous for). Neil, I think you need to broaden your thinking and see the big picture. These people are not just praising Flash because they work for Macromedia (although 3 of them do), but because of all of its powers. Flash will not redefine the possibilities of what can be done on the web; It will simply provide you a with the toolset to do it faster, cheaper, cleaner, and (most importantly) you will only need to do it ONCE for each release.

Hello Forum,
Need Help.
I am trying to send data generated by a query using CFMAIL tag to a
recepient whose email is obtained from a Form.
However Instead of including and sending only one email containing all
the
rows returned by the query to the email address obtained from the Form in
the previous page CFMAIL is sending multiple emails to the same email
address
--one email for each record generate from the query. Thus each email
contains only one seperate record.
I cant understand why?
The recepient email address comes from the Form. The contents of the email
is generated by the db query.
Any help will be much appreciated.
This is my code:
CFQUERY name= Get_Products DataSource=XYZ
Select * FROM Products WHERE product id=#Form.productid#
/CFQUERY
cfmail query=Get_Products
to=#Form.Email_Address#
from=myemail.com
subject=Product

Table
TR
TD Productid: Get_Products.productid BR /TD
TDDetails: Get_Products.details BR /TD
TDModel : Get_Products.modelno BR /TD

The purpose is to send more details about the product selected by the user

SOT How to set up win XP network to be recognized by OS X
This is a repost with a slightly different flavor: Objective: Connect a windows machine (emulated with VirtualPC) to a network on the host Mac OS X machine. The CF tie-in is that I want to Use CFMX on OS X to manipulate MS-Access databases on the Emulated windows machine. The MS-Access databases will not be used in production, rather, the CF programs will extract the MS-Access data and put it into a more-robust RDBMS (usually validating data, changing the schema, normalizing, etc.). CFML is an excellent language for doing this, This is not just an Mac OS X issue -- A Linux or Unix-based CFMX system often needs to get data from MS-Access databases. Sure there other ways to do this, but they all involve extra steps and/or extra hardware fiddling around -- the elegant way is to write a CF program to directly manipulate the MS-Access tables and create and populate the real RDBMS tables (normalizing and creating relationships in the process). The first step to do this is to get the Host Mac and winXP machines thinking they are on the same network I was trying to do this with winNT under Jaguar. I got a lot of help from Sean Daniels and Dave Watts, but never got it working. They were both using later versions of windows. Yesterday, I bought and installed (under VPC) WinXP Upgrade. (Jeez, and people bitch about the cost of OS X, but that's another story...) I used all the setup wizards and XP works fine -- I can access the Internet, from XP, over the shared IP connection, But, winXP doesn't see the host Mac and the Host Mac doesn't see winXP. Help?

RE: Switching to CFMX
Secondly, this is exactly the sort of issue that makes me very nervous of Fusebox. It tries hard to hide complexity from programmers but this shows just how much code it's really hiding and just how much machinery lurks behind the framework. This is the exact same argument that gets made against ColdFusion. I'm sure those early Word Perfect assembly programmers said the same thing about programmers writing word processing programs in languages like C and *gasp* VisualBasic. Of course, this isn't really FB's fault: Of course this isn't really (C's|C++'s|Java's|VisualBasic's|ColdFusion's) fault. :) Benjamin S.

Thanx for clarifying. I need to go back and read that FB3 book again! :) I was thinking more along the lines of the impact all the included files had on the code size - the core files *are* machinery. However, if you're reassuring me that with FB3, the 64k limit is unlikely to be hit then that is even better to know - after all, it would not be very encouraging if large Fusebox applications (whatever they may be - we've had discussions before about 'what is a large application?') simply failed on CFMX due to code size. I have encountered this same limitation in CFMX/Java in a really long custom tag written by (surprise) someone else. Sean, do you know if this (64k) limitation is something that can be addressed by Macromedia? Or is it inherent to Java? Or... ? It is inherent in Java's virtual machine - the offset on a jump is 16 bits and that causes a 64k limit. The CFMX compiler tries to work around this in some cases by figuring out that it can rearrange code, but not all files are amenable to this.

RE: opinions about XSL
The big thing about XSL : + clear separation from content (XML) and presentation logic (XSL), + based on XML + designed for XML transformation + standard and cross-platform = big hype (XSL benefits a lot from the XML hype) I am not a big fan of XSL. The language is ugly and difficult as the article says. Right now : - XSL transformation on the client side is very difficult to implement because you are dependent of the XSL engine available on the client (which might be a very old one with extremely limited capabilities), - XSL transformation on the server side is probably not the best choice, I prefer to use scripting languages such as CFML to manipulate XML and define the presentation logic. It is 100 times more efficient, quicker to develop and to debug than a pure XSL approach. So, XSL works, but there is often better alternatives to transform XML data or define presentation logic. The technology isn't mature enough (and specifications are changing quite often...). However, it might be a good option if you need true cross-platform XML transformation / presentation logic and if the application is heavily based on XML (an XSL stylesheet could be used in Java, .NET, PHP... on the server side and/or the client side). My 2 cents.

RE: encode an image into a .cfm inline
Is this just for the purpose of seeing what fits at different widths? Is it just for your reference or is it for visitors to the site to be able to see? If it's just for you and just for dev., then you can use an old trick I came up with years and years ago. Make a desktop picture with ruled areas delineating the common screen resolutions. Then just resize your browser window to fit within the different bounding lines on the desktop. It's an extremely simple way to check fit. Also, if you use Dreamweaver, there is a feature that will automatically resize the working page window to different standard sizes and it even lets you define your own custom sizes. It's in the lower-right of the document editing window and the window needs to be non-maximized. Kevin Graeme -Original Message- From: Mark W.

I don't know, but I also had probs with date comparisons in QofQ's. Then
I discovered mention of the fact that QofQ's don't allow ODBC dates in
comparison operations in Rob Brooks-Bilson's book Programming
ColdFusion (Note: Mr. B-B refers to QofQ's as CFSQL):
CFSQL doesn't support nested aggregate functions nor does it support
ODBC dates in comparison operations. (p. 377)
This is the only reference I found thus far that addresses ODBC date
comparisons in QofQ's. It may be possible to work this out with a
workaround, but I haven't hit on it yet.

RE: embedding cfmail in a cfoutput -- thx
This is because the cfmail tag uses the cfoutput mechanism internally ( this is why it has the query= atrribute and I think a group= attribute... this is also why you don't need a cfoutput inside a cfmail in order to output variables, because the folks at Allaire originally assumed people would want to do that most of the time ( probably a good assumption :) In any event -- You probably don't want a cfoutput or even a cfloop here anyway -- since the query is designed to return what I can only imagine has to be a single row ( the given user ), what you probably want to do is just have your cfif statement evaluate name.recordcount ( though I'd rename that query also ) and send the email if query.recordcount is greater than zero.

RE: embedding cfmail in a cfoutput -- thx
Gilbert, I'll try and explain a little more clearly. Basically, yes you're right that the cfoutput query= behaves as a loop. Looping through each record obtained from the specified query - in your case users. Now, sometimes when we are looping an output it becomes necessary to have some kind of control over the order in which it is output/processed. In your own example this is not easily explained as it appears to simply be a syntax requirement of nesting the cfmail tag, more than anything else. Most likely to do with how the cfmail tag itself works. However... Going back to what I was saying about controlling the order of output. Lets take a diary application as an example. We might have a table called appointments, which will store each appointment as an individual lineitem, with a primary key. Now there may be several appointments on a single day (date field). If we did a simple cfoutput on the query, we could get some semblance of fluidity in the output, however it would be much nicer to group on the date field, which would then give us nicely formatted output of a day by day based diary. I'm presuming that you are already aware of the above. Now, if we decided to group the output by the primary key field, we're actually not going to be affecting the final output one iota. Why? Because the original cfoutput on the query is automatically 'grouping' by the primary key field anyway - by the very nature and purpose of primary keys. Maybe someone else might be able to explain all this in a more coherent manner, but thats the basic logic behind it.

-OT- Another Javascript problem with forms
Ok, I got my two fields to add up and display in another field with this:
onchange=window.document.ExpenseForm.TotalAmount#Line#.value=parseFloat(window.document.ExpenseForm.Mileage#Line#.value)+parseFloat(window.document.ExpenseForm.CostOfMeals#Line#.value);addTotals();
Now I'm trying to add up all the TotalAmounts and put it at the bottom of
the form. I need to loop through the entire list from 1 to #list# on each
onChange and update the GrandTotal. I can't figure out how to loop in
Javascript and hand it a dynamic variable name. I tried this:
SCRIPT language=Javascript
function addTotals()
{
i = 0
while (i = #GetFormInfo.RecordCount#)
{
window.document.ExpenseForm.GrandTotalAmount.value=parseFloat(window.document.ExpenseForm.GrandTotalAmount.value)+parseFloat(eval(window.document.ExpenseForm.TotalAmount+i+.value));
i++
}
}
/SCRIPT
But it doesn't work doesn't appear to go through each variable name. How
would I do this?

The settings will be quite simple, a new job seeker can specify to receive alerts for 1) Software development jobs 2) Management jobs 3) all jobs When the recruitment company has a new job requirement they will type it up, assign it to a category, and then have an option to send it out to all the prospective job seekers who have requested for alerts in that category.

Re: Dot monster redux
Death to the Dot Monster! (Long live the dot monster) Jerry Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/30/02 06:35PM Turns out that the little dot monster was due to our cfx_imsmail tag not acting like a proper client. Email clients, by definition, are supposed to add a dot to the beginning of a line in an email if the line begins with a dot. Our cfx tag was not doing that but this is corrected in the latest build. Once these lists are updated to iMS 2.4 (will be released tomorrow) the little dot monster will be no more.

DOM is nice, but when you start using large XML files, the DOM is a waste of memory and it is slow - if your luck enough to fit the whole tree into memeory. Its a waste especially if you only need a part of an XML document. XML - XSL (with SAX) - DOM I don't know of a more elegant way to do it. The DOM is great, wonderful, and fabulous for small documents where you need access to the all the nodes.

CF Engine Posting to SQL TWICE
Ok, I have been doing CF now for over 5 years and I have never seen this
happen before and would like a fresh pair of eyes.
Form submits Category and Placement. Action page run the queries and
then stops. The debug information shows the queries and the information
inserted only 1 time. But the database, received 2 rows of the exact
same data. A SQL Trace shows the queries running 2 times as if they
were in a loop, approx 20 ms apart.
The code reads:
cfquery name=Renumber datasource=#DSN#
update ArticleCategory
set Placement = Placement+1
where Placement = '#Placement#'
/cfquery
cfquery name=InsertArticleCategory datasource=#DSN#
insert into ArticleCategory(ArticleCategory, Placement)
values('#form.ArticleCategory#', '#form.Placement#')
/cfquery
The debug shows:
Renumber (Records=0, Time=0ms)
SQL =
update ArticleCategory
set Placement = Placement+1
where Placement = '1'
InsertArticleCategory (Records=0, Time=10ms)
SQL =
insert into ArticleCategory(ArticleCategory, Placement)
values('test3', '1')
But the Database shows:
ID CategoryPlacement
18 test3 2
19 test3 1
It even renumber the first entry correctly by setting the
placement=placement+1
The code is only running once. Why is the CF engine processing it
twice. In addition, this does not happen 100% of the time. Rather, it
is about 50-60% of the time.
If I run the debug queries in Query Analyzer, it only does the operation
1 time. Therefore I am pointing at the CF engine.
We are running CF 5 on Win2k SP 2, IIS.

RE: CF Engine Posting to SQL TWICE
I've seen this before. Normally it's because the form's onSubmit event is
handled, and the function being called does a form.submit() but doesn't
return false to halt further processing. So in effect the form is submitted
twice.
i.e.
script
function CheckForm() {
if (!Valid) {
return false;
}
document.MyForm.submit();
}
/script
form name=MyForm action=act_form.cfm method=post
onsubmit=CheckForm();
/form
To fix this, add a return false; after the document.MyForm.submit();
line in the function.

Subject: CF Engine Posting to SQL TWICE
Ok, I have been doing CF now for over 5 years and I have never seen this
happen before and would like a fresh pair of eyes.
Form submits Category and Placement. Action page run the queries and
then stops. The debug information shows the queries and the information
inserted only 1 time. But the database, received 2 rows of the exact
same data. A SQL Trace shows the queries running 2 times as if they
were in a loop, approx 20 ms apart.
The code reads:
cfquery name=Renumber datasource=#DSN#
update ArticleCategory
set Placement = Placement+1
where Placement = '#Placement#'
/cfquery
cfquery name=InsertArticleCategory datasource=#DSN#
insert into ArticleCategory(ArticleCategory, Placement)
values('#form.ArticleCategory#', '#form.Placement#')
/cfquery
The debug shows:
Renumber (Records=0, Time=0ms)
SQL =
update ArticleCategory
set Placement = Placement+1
where Placement = '1'
InsertArticleCategory (Records=0, Time=10ms)
SQL =
insert into ArticleCategory(ArticleCategory, Placement)
values('test3', '1')
But the Database shows:
ID CategoryPlacement
18 test3 2
19 test3 1
It even renumber the first entry correctly by setting the
placement=placement+1
The code is only running once. Why is the CF engine processing it
twice. In addition, this does not happen 100% of the time. Rather, it
is about 50-60% of the time.
If I run the debug queries in Query Analyzer, it only does the operation
1 time. Therefore I am pointing at the CF engine.
We are running CF 5 on Win2k SP 2, IIS.
Any help would be appreciated.

RE: Forcing Word to open
Actually, there's no way (that I know of) to FORCE the downloaded file to open word. That's really a function of the browser settings. For example, with IE, you can force all word files to be saved to disk instead of opening in Word.

OT: Flash Problem
I've encountered a pretty strange problem in Flash MX and I can't seem to figure out what's wrong. I started what's going to be a fairly large movie in Flash and I've gone through the process of creating all my library images, etc. for the project and am in the process of putting it all together now, but after a certain point (2500 frames appx. and 165 library items) whenever I try to place any object into the document it places the same item on-screen - the item it keeps placing was the last one I used in the timeline. No matter what object I try to place - Button, Graphic, Movie, Sound, etc. .. it always places the same thing on the stage. Anyone have any clue what's up here?
