Just use an onclick or use an [a href=javascript: unCheckAll()] [img][/a] 
to handle that.

CFMX and JRE 1.4.1 - Problems

2002-10-23 Thread Mark Johnson
For those of you using the locale functions in CFMX beware of significant
issues when using SUN JRE 1.4.1

From our testing of CFMX on JRE 1.4.1 we found that all of the following
functions returned unexpected results.

LSIsDate()
 - Set Locale to English (UK)
 - Pass LSIsDate() value of 13/12/02 which is Dec. 13 2002 a valid date.
 - Returns error of 13/12/02 is an invalid date format.

LSDateFormat()
 - Set Locale to English (UK)
 - Pass LSIsDate() value of 13/12/02 which is Dec. 13 2002 a valid date.
 - Returns error of 13/12/02 is an invalid date format.

LSParseDateTime()
 - Set Locale to English (UK)
 - Pass LSIsDate() value of 13/12/02 which is Dec. 13 2002 a valid date.
 - Returns error of 13/12/02 is an invalid date format.

Note: Appears almost as though the setlocale() even though when you run
function getlocale() it returns the correct label. If you do enter in the
English (US) formatted date as 12/13/02 the functions work but the
LSDate functions do not show any of the localiezed values.  ie. Deciembre
instead of December if Spanish etc.


LSCurrencyFormat(n,none)
 - Set Locale to English (UK)
 - Pass LSCurrencyFormat() value of 123456.78
 - Returns 123,456.78 (proper except that in locales with different
separators the separators do not change)

LSCurrencyFormat(n,local)
 - Set Locale to English (UK)
 - Pass LSCurrencyFormat() value of 123456.78
 - Returns GBP123,456.78 (Localized currency specifier does not work)

Note: Should return local currency specifier but does not.

LSCurrencyFormat(n,international)
 - Set Locale to English (UK)
 - Pass LSCurrencyFormat() value of 123456.78
 - Returns GBP123,456.78 (proper for some locales but shows EURO for many
locales that used to be specific to that locale).

Note: For all currencies the thousands separator and other separators do not
change regardless of the locale that has been set.

We have downgraded to JRE 1.4.0_02 as this seems to have fixed the problems
mentioned above.  However, I point all this out as many on this list have
suggested that moving to JRE 1.4.1 has fixed your JDBC problems.  This may
not be a good solution if you are using LS functions.  If someone at
Macromedia would like to see this error in action please contact me offline
and we can make it available.  What is the recommended JRE for CFMX?CFMX
ships with 1.3.0_03 but in the documentation Migrating ColdFusion 5
Applications page 9 it states the following for the CFHTTP tag.  The
timeout attribute requires the Java Development Kit (JDK) 1.4; otherwise,
ColdFusion MX ignores this attribute.  Is JRE 1.4 the reccomended JRE?

Secondly, through this testing we have also noticed a difference in the way
CF 5.0 processes localized dates and the way that CFMX processes localized
dates. To be honest I think the way that CFMX processes the locale makes
more sense than previously, but it is still a difference you should be aware
of.

In CF 5 locale set to English (UK):

#LsDateFormat('12/13/02', ' dd ')#  - Cold Fusion returns no errors
and formats the date as December 13 2002

In CFMX locale set to English (UK):

#LsDateFormat('12/13/02', ' dd ')#  - Cold Fusion returns an error
of 12/13/02 is an invalid date format.

If you add the LSParseDateTime() to the equation in MX:

#LsDateFormat(LSParseDateTime('12/13/02'), ' dd ')# - Cold Fusion
returns no errors and formats the date as December 13 2002

Enjoy!  We have :(

Re: CFMX and FreeBSD

2002-10-23 Thread Dick Applebaum
Costas

Mac OS X is essentially Free BSD, so the os port should work for that  
as well.

The port was from CFMX Linux (Others have used Solaris or Unix to port  
from).

The steps to OS X are itemized at:

 
http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/javascript/2002/08/08/ 
coldfusion_three.html

This assumes the lowest-common-denominator: availability of only  
emulated Linux and no special network ability, so it uses a rather  
cumbersome drop box procedure to exchange files between Linux and Mac  
OS X.  IF you have access to a network and/or a CFMX supported  
Linux/Unix platform, the port should be much easier.

HTH

SOT: Dreamweaver and Opening Access Files?

2002-10-23 Thread Lee Fuller
DWMX recognizes that a file is an Access database.. But will not use
Access to open the file.  Just keeps popping up saying that it can't
find an editor for this type of file.

I read the info on changing the Extensions.txt file.  But that won't
allow for pointing a particular file to another app within DWMX

Any clues?

cfobject

2002-10-23 Thread Adrian Cesana
Can multiple connects to the same object within a single template cause any
problems?  I use try/catch to determine if the object is already created,
then connect as needed, but in a particular template I may be connecting
more than once to the same object depending on a few variables.  Should I
test for this and only connect a single time or is multiple connects within
a single template ok?

Im trying to isolate a problem that I believe is related to this COM
process...

Thanks,Adrian

HELP! CFStudio customization

2002-10-23 Thread jlangevin
I am trying to edit the color coding in Studio 4.5 and am having a problem. 
Specifically, I want the background to be black instead of white.  That is no
problem.  However, I use studio for editing both .cfm and .java files.  The
problem is that in the elements for .java files the curly braces, semi-colons,
etc. are not included in any element for that scheme.  So they default to black
which renders them invisible.  The html  scheme has something an element called
punctuation which deals with these characters.  And of course, I can't use the
html scheme since it does not contain the java elements.  Anyone know how to add
elements to a color scheme?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Remote SQl Server

Is it practical to run a webserver on one side of town/country and connect 
to a remote SQL Server on the other side of town?

We have a box that sends out mail and handles open rate tracking / bounce 
processing / unsubscribes etc. We need to host this mail/web server in a 
remote location (300 km away). Ideally, this box would be able to speak 
with an SQL server at our location here. Is this practical? What kind of

Re: M$Access DB and ColdFusionMX for Solaris

2002-10-23 Thread Dick Applebaum
Troy

You probably can't do exactly what you want -- run MS-Access native on  
a non-windows platform, but you can get close enough.

As far as I have been able to determine, the Jet engine (MS-Access  
RDBMS) is implemented within the microsoft ODBC driver -- the driver is  
the database.  Because of this, there are no implementations except on  
windows platforms.

But, if you can interface a windows box on a network, or run emulated  
windows on Solaris (VMWare?), you can set up CFMX to interface the  
MS-Access system (ODBC driver) through TCP/IP.

Now, MS-Access doesn't provide TCP/IP access, so you need some  
3rd-party software.

OpenLink Software provides a package that will do the job.

It consists of a JDBC driver for CFMX

Server software that runs on windows and interfaces the JDBC driver  
(above)

A MS-Access agent, that runs on windows and connects the server with  
the MS-Access ODBC driver.

I have successfully done this with Mac OS X, running MS-Access97/2000  
under VirtualPC emulated WindowsNT/XP

MS-Access can be running, or not.

I used CFMX programs to read the a large MS-Access mdb, validate the  
data, normalize, create and populate tables using Sybase_ASE (could be  
any CFMX supported db).

In my case, this was all running on a single box -- everything but the  
emulated  MS-Access ODBC driver, an OpenLink server/agent were run in  
Native OS X.

I haven't tried Solaris, but the same setup should be possible.

The Openlink software is $500 -- which seems a little pricey.  Except  
you could easily recover this cost with a single conversion (as  
described above).

Further, OpenLink Software has a free trial, so you can play before you  
pay.

 I'm sitting here trying to figure a way to use ColdFusionMX on Solaris8
 to get data out of an Microsoft Access Database.
 I heard a rumor that there was an ODBC driver or some other driver that
 would allow this to happen.
 Does anyone know if this is true?
 Can I store an Access DB File on a Solaris File system and use
 ColdFusionMX to select data from it which is also running on the same
 Solaris system?
 I have a feeling that the answer would be NO, but just wanted to post
 this to see if I am correct.

 I searched the CF-TALK list for this and did not find anything, but I
 could have used the wrong search criteria.

 If this is indeed not possible, I thought of another idea to accomplish
 this that might work.
 Use ColdFusionMX in distributed mode.
 Install ColdFusionMX and the Access DB file on a Windows2000/XP server
 and use ODBC to connect to Access.
 Configure the web server, maybe Apache2, on Sun Solaris8 with the
 ColdFusionMX distributed client (wsconfig.jar).
 I wonder if this would work like I expect it to?
 Anyone already done this?
 I can already see the benefits.
 I can segregate my small Access Applications from the rest.  ;-)

 I strongly invite any and all comments.

 Thanks,
 Troy

Search functionality: Verity, LIKE operator, or what?

2002-10-23 Thread David Notik
Hi all:
 
I haven't posted to this list for awhile.  I used to post all the time,
and used to write the TipWorld ColdFusion tips many of you received.
Good to be back in the mix.
 
My question:
 
I built a document management system of sorts.  I have all the files in
a directory. there's a database record for every file with fields such
as: title, filename, description, keywords, and more.  The filename
field references the actual physical file and it's all very simple.
 
So now I want to provide the ability to search the files. with a twist.
 
I have a box where the user can type in keywords.  I could then write a
query which uses the LIKE operator many times and searches the various
relevant fields for that keyword.  But is that really the most efficient
way?
 
I know I could create a collection.  But doesn't a collection only
search the actual content of the physical files indexed in the
collection?  Meaning my title, description, and keywords fields (etc.)
wouldn't be relevant.
 
What do I do?
 
That's question one. but then let's take it a step further:
 
I have a securitytype associated with each file record, which denotes
whether the logged in user has access to the file.  When a user searches
for files, I DO NOT want to display files he does not have access to.  I
can easily accomplish this using my own query (LIKE operator and a WHERE
clause that only pulls records they have access to), but if I do it the
verity way, is this possible?
 
Just trying to decide the best way to go about this.
 
I am using ColdFusion Pro MX, SQLServer 2000.

Using CFEXECUTE from a Web Browser???

2002-10-23 Thread Dave Cordes
Has anyone ever tried to use CFEXECUTE to execute a command?

CFEXECUTE NAME=C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
ARGUMENTS=copy zebra.txt LPT1
TIMEOUT=5/CFEXECUTE

We're trying to print barcodes from a Web browser and have been having lots
of problems. All it does is times out.

I can go to a command prompt and type in copy zebra.txt LPT1 and it works
fine.

How can I do this using CFEXECUTE?

It's probably a permission problem.  Make sure that that the CF server service account 
has permissions to use the printer.

Subject: Search functionality: Verity, LIKE operator, or what?


Hi all:
 
I haven't posted to this list for awhile.  I used to post all the time,
and used to write the TipWorld ColdFusion tips many of you received.
Good to be back in the mix.
 
My question:
 
I built a document management system of sorts.  I have all the files in
a directory. there's a database record for every file with fields such
as: title, filename, description, keywords, and more.  The filename
field references the actual physical file and it's all very simple.
 
So now I want to provide the ability to search the files. with a twist.
 
I have a box where the user can type in keywords.  I could then write a
query which uses the LIKE operator many times and searches the various
relevant fields for that keyword.  But is that really the most efficient
way?
 
I know I could create a collection.  But doesn't a collection only
search the actual content of the physical files indexed in the
collection?  Meaning my title, description, and keywords fields (etc.)
wouldn't be relevant.
 
What do I do?
 
That's question one. but then let's take it a step further:
 
I have a securitytype associated with each file record, which denotes
whether the logged in user has access to the file.  When a user searches
for files, I DO NOT want to display files he does not have access to.  I
can easily accomplish this using my own query (LIKE operator and a WHERE
clause that only pulls records they have access to), but if I do it the
verity way, is this possible?
 
Just trying to decide the best way to go about this.
 
I am using ColdFusion Pro MX, SQLServer 2000.

Re: Using CFEXECUTE from a Web Browser???

2002-10-23 Thread S . Isaac Dealey
 Has anyone ever tried to use CFEXECUTE to execute a

 CFEXECUTE NAME=C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
   ARGUMENTS=copy zebra.txt LPT1
   TIMEOUT=5/CFEXECUTE

 We're trying to print barcodes from a Web browser and have

 I can go to a command prompt and type in copy zebra.txt
 LPT1 and it works fine.

 How can I do this using CFEXECUTE?

try

cfexecute name=copy c:\path\to\zebra.txt lpt1 timeout=5/cfexecute

cfexecute accesses the operating system in much the same way cmd.exe does,
so at that point, cmd.exe is superfluous in your name attribute. You do need
to bear in mind, however, that any DOS commands you execute this way will be
relative iirc from the root of the operating system drive, i.e. from c:\ ...
so any batch files you need access to, etc. will need to be in that root or
will require full paths to files or will require entries in the path in your
autoexec.bat

CFMX Installation Help Needed

2002-10-23 Thread Bruce Holm
Tried to install CFMX on our Unix box and ran into problems.
Installing over CF5 seemed to mangle it badly including no bin directory!
Started over with a clean install and got it at least running this time but it:
   * Runs MUCH slower than CF5 - have others seen this?
* The server admin throws Java errors trying to configure the server.
Are these known issues?  What's the workaround?
Is there documentation of what to do/not do in installing CFMX successfully on Unix?

RE: Anybody using manual 304 not modified response?

2002-10-23 Thread Mosh Teitelbaum
Susan Rayburn wrote:
I'm wondering if anyone is using a manual 304 not modified response with
ColdFusion dynamic pages on IIS.  I'd like to pull the last modified date

(or knows of an article explaining how-to) I'd love to see more.

I'm interested in using the 304 responses as described in the below
discussion.
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/6005.htm

Susan:

I've not done this, but your question got me a bit curious and so I looked
into it a bit more.  First, not all web clients send the If-Modified-Since
header, so before anything you'd have to check for it's existence.  Cold
Fusion allows you to access this header via the CGI.HTTP_IF_MODIFIED_SINCE
variable.  If it exists, its value should be in the format specified by RFC
1123, for example:

Sun, 06 Nov 1994 08:49:37 GMT

So, you can parse this date value, and compare it to the last modified
date/time of your current page/data.  Depending on the result of the
comparison, you either let the page execute as normal, or you return the 304
response.  So you might use something like the following:

CFIF IsDefined(CGI.HTTP_IF_MODIFIED_SINCE)
CFSET comparisonDate = [convert date to CF timestamp and to local
time]
CFSET lastModDate = [get last mod date from file sys or DB]

CFIF DateCompare(lastModDate, comparisonDate) EQ 1
CFHEADER STATUSCODE=304 STATUSTEXT=Not Modified
CFABORT
/CFIF
/CFIF

This doesn't take into account the If-None-Match header, also discussed in
RFC 2616, but this is about as far as I've had time to get.  Also, to
facilitate the logic needed for the first step, convert date to CF
timestamp and to local time, I wrote the following UDF (queued at
cflib.org):

CFSCRIPT
/**
 * Function that converts HTTPTimeString format to ColdFusion TimeStamp
format and
 * optionally converts the time from UTC/GMT to local time.
 *
 * @param httpTimeStringA datetime in the format: ddd, dd mmm  hh:mm:ss
GMT. (Required)
 * @param convertToLocalA boolean specifying whether httpTimeString should
be converted to local time.  Defaults to false. (Optional)
 * @return Returns a string in Cold Fusion Time Stamp format.
 * @author Mosh Teitelbaum ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
 * @version 1, October 23, 2002
 */
function getTimeStamp(httpTimeString) {
// Build Time Stamp
var tsParts = ListToArray(httpTimeString,  );
var timeStamp = {ts '  tsParts[4]  - 
DateFormat(#tsParts[3]#/1/1970, mm)  -  tsParts[2]
tsParts[5]  '};

// Convert to local time
if ((ArrayLen(Arguments) EQ 2) AND (CompareNoCase(Arguments[2], TRUE) EQ
0)) {
timeStamp = DateConvert(utc2Local, timeStamp);
}

// Return timeStamp
return timeStamp;
}
/CFSCRIPT

After writing and submitting it, I noticed that there is a similar (too
similar for my tastes, but whatever) UDF that handles the conversion from
HTTPTimeString to CF TimeStamp but does not handle the conversion from
UTC/GMT to localtime.  Anyway, your first line of code would now change
from:

CFSET comparisonDate = [convert date to CF timestamp and to local time]

to:

CFSET comparisonDate = getTimeStamp(CGI.HTTP_IF_MODIFIED_SINCE, True)

How you get the last modified date is up to you.  You'd have to check, I
believe, both the file timestamp and the data timestamp.

Good luck and let me know if you take this any further.

RE: Anybody using manual 304 not modified response?

Oops, left something out.

This won't do much good unless you also send back the Last-Modified header
with every page that doesn't return a 304.

So change the code a bit so it reads like:

CFIF DateCompare(lastModDate, comparisonDate) EQ 1
CFHEADER STATUSCODE=304 STATUSTEXT=Not Modified
CFABORT
CFELSE
CFHEADER NAME=Last-Modified VALUE=#GetHttpTimeString(Now())#
/CFIF

Again, I haven't really tested much of this, so just make sure the code
works as expected before dropping into production 8^).

Re: Using CFEXECUTE from a Web Browser???

2002-10-23 Thread cf-talk
It's quite likely a permissions problem.  But another thing you can try is
to put the commands in a .BAT file and then execute the .BAT file.

Also note... I've experienced some weirdness with the CFEXECUTE command in
CFMX.  I wish I could explain it better than that but the main problem I was
having was that some programs (which worked in CF5) would not execute in
CFMX.  I also noticed that the timeout attribute was causing the program
to take that long to execute rather than executing and then returning back
to the calling template.  I'm not sure if this was addressed in the updater
patch or not.  I haven't tested it since.

Good Database Practices

2002-10-23 Thread Andy Ousterhout
How important is it to build auditing into your database?  For example, in
an invoicing system where you have an invoice table and an invoice item
table, does anyone recommend keeping totals such as number of items or total
invoice amount in the invoice record?  Not for reporting, but for data
integrity checks.  If so, how often would you validate the tables and what
do you do if errors are found?

Re: Good Database Practices

2002-10-23 Thread Samuel Neff
Andy,

That's a good question.  Here's my $0.02.

I do not think it is necessary or even helpful to store aggregate
information as a checkpoint to validate data.  What is often done,
however, is to keep an entire audit trail for the database.  Basically
what this means is you always keep a copy of every record.  There are a
few ways to do this.  

One way is to add modified date and active fields to every table, and
then instead of modifying any record you always insert a new record and
update the modified date.  To delete a record, insert a new date with
latest modified date and set active equal to false.  The major drawback
of this method is that all joins have to filter out on only the latest
record and you end up with very slow queries.  However, this is a very
common practice in accounting systems (PeopleSoft comes to mind since I
deal with this regularly and curse it almost every day).

Another method is to have a Audit or History version of every table.
Use triggers so any time a record is change a new record is added to the
Audit table so you have a complete history of the record.  The advantage
here is much greater query performance, but of course
updates/inserts/deletes are slower.

Does this tradeoff sound familiar?  Same considerations as with
indexes.. Speed up reads, slow down writes.  Which method is best will
vary by app and circumstances.

HTH,

Sam

It's quite likely a permissions problem.  But another thing you can try is
to put the commands in a .BAT file and then execute the .BAT file.

Also note... I've experienced some weirdness with the CFEXECUTE command in
CFMX.  I wish I could explain it better than that but the main problem I was
having was that some programs (which worked in CF5) would not execute in
CFMX.  I also noticed that the timeout attribute was causing the program
to take that long to execute rather than executing and then returning back

Local System Account probably DOES NOT have the proper permissions.  Try
(temporarily) setting ColdFusion to run as Administrator and see if that
solves your problem.  If it does, then you'll want to create a ColdFusion
(or similar) account and set it up that way.  I do NOT recommend running the
ColdFusion server as Administrator for obvious reasons... just as a test
to see if it's a permissions issue or not.

I haven't had a chance to look at the Barker's book yet, but Horton's is

good starting point to learn about OOP in one of his recent newsletters.

CA Also, any preferred Development Environments / Editors?

Based on a recommendation in Horton's book, I've started messing around
with JCreator ( http://www.jcreator.com/ ). It's a nice Java IDE and
pretty easy for beginners to pick up. The light edition is free, too.
Also, UltraEdit works pretty good and has a tool you can configure to

Re: Multiple Records Update Issue

2002-10-23 Thread Richard Meredith-Hardy
There are several problems I can see here:

1.  nulls.  I would suggest you do not use NULLS to mean false.  A
logical field should be 0 (false) or 1 (true).  Set up the DB so the
field has a default value of either of them as you prefer.

2.  Your checkboxes have no value even if they are passed as true,
should be eg input type=checkbox name=Onboard value=1

3.  You do not need to use the # hashes around variables inside the cfif
block:  cfif Onboard EQ )unchecked/cfif

4.  I think the default state of a checkbox is unchecked, thus you
should positively check them (not uncheck them) thus:  input
type=checkbox name=Onboard value=1 cfif Onboard EQ
1CHECKED/cfif

5.  You are providing no differentiation between different records, ie
you are returning lots of form.vars named onboard, or probably a
single one as a comma delimited list.  Either way there is no connection
between the var and the record it belongs to.  I expect there are a
number of ways to deal with this, but I do it by concantenating the
input field name thus:   input type=checkbox
name=Onboard_#EmpID_Muster# value=1 cfif Onboard EQ
1CHECKED/cfif.   I then provide a list of the keys we are referring
to in a hidden field at the end of the form, thus:

CFSET tmpkeylist = 
cfoutput query=Recordset1
CFSET tmpkeylist = listappend(tmpkeylist,EmpID_Muster)
input type=checkbox name=Onboard_#EmpID_Muster# value=1 cfif
Onboard EQ 1CHECKED/cfif
 other query output 
/cfoutput
CFOUTPUTINPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=EmpID_Muster_list
VALUE=#tmpkeylist#/CFOUTPUT
/FORM

6.  Unchecked checkboxes return nothing, not even the variable name, so
you must be prepared to create them and give them a false value if they
don't exist. This is what CFPARAM is for. Your update script, looping
thru each EmpID_Muster would thus look something like this:

CFLOOP LIST=#form.EmpID_Muster_list# INDEX = idx
   CFPARAM NAME = Onboard_#idx# DEFAULT = 0
   cfquery datasource=Muster_Test
  UPDATE dbo.muster 
  SET Onboard= #evalute(Onboard_#idx#)#
  WHERE EmpID_Muster = #idx#
   /cfquery
/CFLOOP

note the evaluate() which gets the value of the variable

Here's hoping that the next updater (and future updaters) will also  
work on the port to Mac OS X -- so we don't have to reinstall Linux.

Damon Cooper and Brent Baker, of the Macromedia CF RD team, put  
together an updater 1 package that worked great on Mac OS X -- I hope  
this will carried forward to future updaters.

Subject: Adding a row..


All,

My application has line items that are stored in a database for a
project.

When you enter the application page, you start with a blank line item.
You enter your information, you can perform a calculation and then you
have the option to Save the project or you can Add a Row.

Saving simply updates the db and then sends you on your merry way.

Adding a row, on the other hand, updates all current Line Items and then
returns with a new blank line.

Additionally, there are fields that calculate certain titles from the
line items to give dollar amounts, etc.

The issue I'm having is that I cannot figure out the best approach to
adding this new line item row to my project.

Does anyone have any examples of this type of application or where
they've done something similar?

Thanks,

Tom,

What you are seeing is the source code for the template (which is
encrpyted).  You have to bind the .cfm extension to the ColdFusion .dll (or
whatever it equivelant in RedHat...I am an not a Linux user/fan).
Basically your install has failed to bind any and all .cfm pages to the CF
server. This is a common install error; I am not sure what causes it
though...

Hey Adrian,

The CF MX Developer Study Guide by Macromedia Press will be available in
December 2002.

The Evaluation Kit is now available from the online store, for those who
want a CD instead of downloading the trials. It contains all of the MX
product trials (and the CFMX Trial/Developer's Edition - CFMX Trial reverts
to the Developer's Edition at the end of 30 days when the trial expires).

http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/store/US/product.jsp?category=/BooksVid
eos/Misc/TrialCDtype=FULL

In addition to the trials CD, there's an additional CD which contains a
first-hand look at all the amazing things you can do with the new MX
products. I haven't seen this new first-hand look CD, so at the moment, I
can't describe it any futher than that.

I hope this helps!

Re: Known CFMX issues under consideration for upcoming Updater re leas e

2002-10-23 Thread Dick Applebaum
Neil

I hope MM is looking at a Mac OS X version of CFMX -- at least for 
developers.

I have been told that there isn't a large enough population of Mac OS X 
servers to build a business case for releasing a supported production 
version.

That said, Sybase and Oracle have released their latest db servers to 
run on Mac OS X, and IBM is conducting a survey to see if there is 
enough demand to warrant a DB/2 product for Mac OS X.

So, Sybase, Oracle, and maybe IBM see an opportunity to make money on 
the Mac Server Market.

If IBM decides to release a Mac product, that will mean that 3 of the 
top 4 production databases have Mac products.

I have Sybase and Oracle (and every other JDBC-compliant db I could 
find) running on my TiBook.

I just converted a client's large SQL-Server db to Sybase to see what 
is involved.  As you may know, Sybase and SQL-Server share a common 
ancestry, T/SQL, etc.  There were a few differences, but everything 
works fine, even though everything is running on the same box.  It 
performs well, and makes a very nice demo.

Later, I will do the same exercise with Oracle -- just 'cause I can.

Sybase_ASE, on the Mac, has an interesting feature -- using Rendezvous 
(Apple's zero configuration networking) it can detect and connect  
(with appropriate security) to any Sybase servers that exist on the 
network or wireless.  So, conceivably, you could grab your wireless 
laptop,  dance into a client's office, connect to his production db and 
do a prepared or ad hoc CFMX demo -- no wires, no configuration, no 
fiddling, no nuthin' between you and the presentation

The list of dbs that run on OS X and interface with CFMX include:

MySQL
PostgreSQL
OpenBase
PointBase Embedded
PointBase Server
FrontBase
Xindice
Sybase_ASE
Oracle9i

And to convert existing offline databases to a more robust RDBMS 
suitable for online use, CFMX can interface the following running on 
Mac OS X.

   FileMaker
   MS-Access 97/2000 running under emulation with an interface from 
OpenLink Software.

The Client Sybase db  that I created (mention above) was actually built 
from a MS-Access 97 mdb, with CFMX programs reading the Access db, then 
creating,validating, normalizing the Sybase db (using the same programs 
that created the SQL-Server db, several years ago).

So, with the exception of SQL-Server and DB/2, you can run (pretty 
much) everything you need for a complete CFMX developer system in 
native OS X, on a single box.

It's getting there!

Dick

2002-10-23 Thread Robertson-Ravo, Neil (REC)
Dick,

Yep it is getting there.  I still think that a production level version of
CFMX will never happen on an Apple as there just isnt enough of them running
within ISP's etc... nothing can be done about that, its a legacy thing and
it aint gonna happen overnight.  What would be good to see is a version
which is Mac OS X compatible and is supported - this could be the Linux
version.  That way you do not have to sell a Mac version per say but get
sales via another avenue and if the user decides to buy it and run it on OSX
then so be it!

As for the DB's, I do see your point, but what also needs to be considered
with them is the features they provide - such as Stored Procedures, Triggers
etc (which some of them do not support).

Is there no way you can install CFMX on a Mac OS and use a Windows based SQL
server? (annoying, but its a step in the right direction).

Neil

I hope MM is looking at a Mac OS X version of CFMX -- at least for 
developers.

I have been told that there isn't a large enough population of Mac OS X 
servers to build a business case for releasing a supported production 
version.

That said, Sybase and Oracle have released their latest db servers to 
run on Mac OS X, and IBM is conducting a survey to see if there is 
enough demand to warrant a DB/2 product for Mac OS X.

So, Sybase, Oracle, and maybe IBM see an opportunity to make money on 
the Mac Server Market.

If IBM decides to release a Mac product, that will mean that 3 of the 
top 4 production databases have Mac products.

I have Sybase and Oracle (and every other JDBC-compliant db I could 
find) running on my TiBook.

I just converted a client's large SQL-Server db to Sybase to see what 
is involved.  As you may know, Sybase and SQL-Server share a common 
ancestry, T/SQL, etc.  There were a few differences, but everything 
works fine, even though everything is running on the same box.  It 
performs well, and makes a very nice demo.

Later, I will do the same exercise with Oracle -- just 'cause I can.

Sybase_ASE, on the Mac, has an interesting feature -- using Rendezvous 
(Apple's zero configuration networking) it can detect and connect  
(with appropriate security) to any Sybase servers that exist on the 
network or wireless.  So, conceivably, you could grab your wireless 
laptop,  dance into a client's office, connect to his production db and 
do a prepared or ad hoc CFMX demo -- no wires, no configuration, no 
fiddling, no nuthin' between you and the presentation

The list of dbs that run on OS X and interface with CFMX include:

MySQL
PostgreSQL
OpenBase
PointBase Embedded
PointBase Server
FrontBase
Xindice
Sybase_ASE
Oracle9i

And to convert existing offline databases to a more robust RDBMS 
suitable for online use, CFMX can interface the following running on 
Mac OS X.

   FileMaker
   MS-Access 97/2000 running under emulation with an interface from 
OpenLink Software.

The Client Sybase db  that I created (mention above) was actually built 
from a MS-Access 97 mdb, with CFMX programs reading the Access db, then 
creating,validating, normalizing the Sybase db (using the same programs 
that created the SQL-Server db, several years ago).

So, with the exception of SQL-Server and DB/2, you can run (pretty 
much) everything you need for a complete CFMX developer system in 
native OS X, on a single box.

It's getting there!

Dick

 Hey Dick,

 Do you think MM are serious on porting over to Mac OS X?  even its 
 just in a
 developer capacity :-)   (I dont think Macs will ever be a hit on the 
 server
 market)

Re: Adding a row..

2002-10-23 Thread Richard Meredith-Hardy
One way to do this is have a set of empty input field(s) after the end
of the lineitems output query called something like new_fieldname 

When you come to submit, you update your existing lineitems, then check
if one or more of your new_ fields has a value in it, ie CFIF
len(trim(form.new_fieldname)) gt 0 and if the value(s) check out as
valid, then do an insert query.

Then read the lot with your SELECT query, output it, if insert was good
then it will now be a lineitem.

 eh? so you are adding a 'blank' row to your DB?.. FWIW this is bad DB
 design and should be avoided;  I am not sure what you are trying to achieve
 here . can you elaborate?

 Subject: Adding a row..
 
 All,
 
 My application has line items that are stored in a database for a
 project.
 
 When you enter the application page, you start with a blank line item.
 You enter your information, you can perform a calculation and then you
 have the option to Save the project or you can Add a Row.
 
 Saving simply updates the db and then sends you on your merry way.
 
 Adding a row, on the other hand, updates all current Line Items and then
 returns with a new blank line.
 
 Additionally, there are fields that calculate certain titles from the
 line items to give dollar amounts, etc.
 
 The issue I'm having is that I cannot figure out the best approach to
 adding this new line item row to my project.
 
 Does anyone have any examples of this type of application or where
 they've done something similar?
 
 Thanks,

passing variable via JS to popup

2002-10-23 Thread Tim Laureska
Hello All... I have a template I'm using to pass a CF variable to a
pop-up window named directions.cfm that I want to provide detail
directions (text) for an event location.  The variable that needs to be
passed is event_no (event number). being a JS novice, can someone tell
me how to change the code below to pass the event_no CF variable
(#event_no#) to directions.cfm.. The code as written is not sending the
event_no 
 
cfoutput query=event_no
 
form action=directions.cfm method=POST
a href=## OnClick =window.open('directions.cfm');Directions/a
INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=event_no VALUE=#event_no#
/form
 
/cfoutput
 
 
thanks
Tim Laureska
