I was very surprised that MM left any HTML in the site at all, and think that generated most of the problems. Interesting. We get criticized for using too much Flash as well as for not using enough Flash! :) think part of the motivation was that they have some standard page layouts that wouldn't work in a pure flash environment. Part of the 'problem' is that we have 30,000 static pages and many of them are very large documents with multiple images and movies embedded in them. Macromedia has always promoted HTML for certain types of documents. The right tool for the right job. We actually attempted an All Flash All The Time model early on in Dylan65 and prototyped a support center entirely in Flash with tech notes displayed in Flash. There were usability problems with it that confirmed we were right to plan on an HTML / Flash hybrid site. A complete restructuring would have been enormously time intensive, and probably not economical. Yes, we changed /desdev to /devnet and that was a big deal. Several of us were pushing to change /software to /products to match other sites but that was considered too big a change. I think MM is pushing the right direction with the new site, but it's going to get a lot of criticism (including mine) and have a lot of problems because it didn't go the full monty. I assure you that attempting to show all the tech notes and press releases in Flash would have drawn far more criticism... :) However, we don't know what went into the back-end of the site, and I think that's important. You will - we are planning a series of articles about it. I guarentee that they had a lot of problems with CFCs Well, we started developing with CFCs prior to the first alpha release so we did experience a lot of flux in that area. However, CFCs are at the core of our architecture and we are, generally, very happy with them. See my blog for just how much we rely on them: http://www.corfield.org/blog/archives/2003_03.html#000254 Flash Remoting Yes, we've learned a lot about this too. Again, see my blog for just how central it is to our new site. Again, we'll write articles on the pros and cons. the end result is going to be a set of kick-ass updaters for all products involved in their site redux here in a couple months. I probably shouldn't say it but there are fixes in Updater 3 that are a direct result of my team's experience with the products and which will improve everyone's experience with the products.

I'm also anxious to read Sean Corfield's articles on the architectural decisions behind the site. Perhaps not in my articles but, yes, it will be discussed in articles on DevNet written by my colleagues. We did a lot of experimentation with downloads and performance and the current architecture produces the most responsive site so far. Loading a single swf ties up the browser totally until it is fully downloaded. Loading a shell swf that in turn loads multiple swfs creates a much more interactive experience and lets you interact with the 'movie' before it has fully loaded (i.e., before all the movies have loaded). I'm hoping that MM publishes something along the lines of here's what we decided to do first and then down the line here's what we found didn't work and here's what we did to improve things. RIAs are pretty much uncharted territory and I'm very interested in hearing their experiences in building and tuning the site. Yes, we had our ups and downs and we will 'tell all'. We'll explain why the site still has 30,000 static pages, why the site is not a single Flash movie, why there are still Perl CGIs on the site, why we still have separate partners and training registration systems running on old versions of CF and Spectra... And we'll also talk about the overwhelming number of successes that we've had along the way and why the new website is actually rather good.

RE: The New Macromedia Website
Joe, *what* have you been smoking? HTML has gotten the web where it is because it is the only game in town. And standards??? W3C? There is only one thing that will drive market acceptance and that is market dominance; not a committee of any sort. Ever. Macromedia has gotten themselves installed on everybody's browser. Because of that, they are the standard. Because they've also got the mindshare at this point, they'll keep the lead. Unless of course they screw up somehow. And barring a Microsoft version of Flash (lets call it Flush) getting installed on every desktop as part of the next version of Windows. But either way, the process will be driven by market dynamics... Not a cabal of academics. That's not fair and I think that you may know it. These academics are not sitting in an ivory tower making proclomations: the W3C members are, for the most part, representatives from those companies and organizations that drive web technology. A list of current members (including Macromedia) is here: http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Member/List Forgetting HTML, how many products are currently using XML? XML is a W3C standard. How about HTTP? That's a W3C standard as well. I agree that market factors can and do drive technology adoption, but a basic foundation must be in place first - and the W3C has given, and continues to give, us that foundation. It's not always on target (for example neither PNG or SMIL have particularly taken off) but what is? Flash may have achieved market dominance via pure market forces, but HTML, HTTP, CSS, SOAP, and XML have achieved market dominance via the work of the W3C. Niether force can be discounted or marginalized. The W3C is also, I believe, the only organization that can bring about the promises of the Semantic Web, common Ontologies and many other foundational technologies.

Part of that appears to be due to the high number of requests, part of that is that some requests take long on the server, and part of that is probably that a Duron 800 is apparently not fast enough anymore. Not sure if you checked out the individual files but the homepage is broken up into multiple swf and xml documents (I show 22 swf and 9 xml). To be complete, there are also 1 html, 2 css, 3 js, and 11 gifs for a total of 48 files and 251KB. That is close enough with my 52 requests. The main difference is that I count 30 swf and only 2 gif. One thing I noticed is that about 90 KB of the initial load is XML/CSS/JS/HTML. I bet that if HTTP compression were enabled for the larger files the bandwidth use for the initial load would drop below quite a bit. I was speculating with a colleague that the poor performance that some people were seeing had to do with the number of files being downloaded as well as the fact that the Flash player needs to load and parse the 9 xml files (although the player's xml handling is greatly improved in the latest versions).

Does anyone know how to script IE to open a web page, save it locally as a .mht file and then repeat that for, say, 100 other pages? The URLs will be almost identical, the only difference being one parameter in the query string. I read an earlier message saying that you could do something like this with Windows Script Host, but I've never played with it. Would that be the right approach? And before someone suggests cfhttp, this is something that (I think) needs to be done client-side, as we specifically want to save 100's of web pages as .mht files (compressed HTML), not as vanilla .html.

Day 3 Opera works! Re: The New Macromedia Website
Ahh good I am quite happy now that it was finally fixed so I can see the site. That song on the front page is nice for all of 2 seconds and then it burns into your skull lol.

Well, I don't think anyone can realistically argue the new site hasn't been fully sign-posted. Anyone who is surprised by our RIA deployment has, frankly, been living under a stone :) And it is purely evolution. It's CF on the back end, several of the apps are pure CF. Nothing shocking there. We have just four RIAs on the new site - there are five pure CF applications. People have been using Flash UIs on CF apps for quite some time, certainly prior to the MX launches. Macromedia has been roundly criticized for not using our own technology and for being a few releases behind the leading edge. Now we're up to date.

PKI management tools using CFML
Hi all, I'm about to embark on a mini project, building some tools for web based management of Public/Private key pairs (issue requests and revocations) on a (as yet to be installed and configured) linux OpenCA Certificate server.

Sorting a form collection?
Is it possible to sort a collection, particularly the form collection?? All my form fields are created dynamically and are named such as Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 .. .. Q10 Q11 Etc. When I loop the collection they are returned in the good old alphabetical order i.e. Q10 Q11 Q12 Q13 Q9 Q8 I just wanted to know if there was easy way to do this before I started building it to create a list, removing the Q and sorting chronologically then looping that. especially since the collection has the potential to get rather large. Also, I didn't want to put 0's in front of single digit numbers since they are unique ID's of rows in my database table. So, is there a function to sort a collection like you can with lists using listsort() ? or evenis there a way to make access use 01, 02 when auto incrementing with an autonumber datatype? ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
CFFORM with method=GET?
CFFORM Workaround to achieve URL variables in a METHOD = GET Simulation. Unfortunately the CFFORM tag does not support the attribute for METHOD. The default METHOD is POST this email has the information for a workaround if you still want to use CFFORM without having to use a regular FORM tags and write out all the JavaScript for field validation. 1. Form page that passs all the variables needs to be setup with all the proper cfparam tags for all the fields being used. Data will be sending to an intermediate conversion template for the POSTED variables. (A. Sending Template with your CFFORM) !--- Note: There are 10 search options available. --- !--- 1. --- cfparam name=ReqNo default= !--- 2. --- cfparam name=FirstName default= !--- 3. --- cfparam name=LastNamedefault= 2. Intermediate Template: This template needs to capture all the variables and pass them using a CFLOCATION tag which will automatically pass the variables to the desired location e.g. a dynamic query search page via the URL. This template doesnt need anything fancy and at minimal without error handling the code below will achieve the desired results. (B. Intermediate Template) CFOUTPUT CFLOCATION URL=ResultSet.cfm?ReqNo=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.ReqNo))#FirstName=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.FirstName))#LastName=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.LastName))#ApplicationType=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.ApplicationType))#Status=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.Status))#APPLIED_DATE=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.APPLIED_DATE))#Desired_Position=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.Desired_Position))#SalaryExpectedYR=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.SalaryExpectedYR))#ApplicantStatus=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.ApplicantStatus))#HR_Results=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.HR_Results))#UserRights=#TRIM(urlencodedformat(FORM.UserRights))# /CFOUTPUT 3. One modification to the receiving template, at the beginning you may want to convert your URL to FORM variables if youre using a dynamic loop to pass those values to a next template or your test code is just using FORM variables. (C. Dynamic Query Template) !--- Note: There are 10 search options available. --- !--- 1. --- CFSET FORM.ReqNo = URL.ReqNo !--- 2. --- CFSET FORM.FirstName = URL.FirstName !--- 3. --- CFSET FORM.LastName = URL.LastName 4. Why all the trouble you ask? If a dynamic query template is being used to output items where you may want to have the option to delete or modify an observation of the output upon that event if you reload the referring page from your action page IE will prompt the user with a security alert. This is the bypass around this IE bug. (D. Action Template) SQL DELETE FROM IMAIL_EMAIL WHERE ID = #FORM.GERRY# . !--- Note: The opener option will refresh the referring pages result set. --- script opener.location.reload(); /script Below is my best try at a visual to this example where A is a search CFFORM that submits to the Intermediate Template B which then relocates and coverts the FORM variables to URL variables to a Dynamic Query Template C. Then if the user selects a action page to e.g. delete or modify you then open a new window and run your Action Template D which then refresh C. Framed Page Setup * A | B C * * D * I hope this helps if you ever run into this issue. Its a basic web application trick but it caused me some pain loss if time to learn the hard way. When you really need to use METHOD= GET I would say its best to just use FORM tags and the JS then all this information means nothing.

Re: Sorting a form collection?
Ewok,
Also, I didn't want to put 0's in front of single digit numbers since they
are unique ID's of rows in my database table.
Use number format when you append your numbers to the form field names
eg. name=Q#NumberFormat(i,00)#
This will make sure that your numbers are zero filled.
So, is there a function to sort a collection like you can with lists using
listsort() ?
You could do a listsort on form.fieldnames, then loop through that to
process your form fields.
eg.
cfscript
sortedlist = listsort(form.fieldnames);
for (i=1;i=ListLen(sortedList);i=i+1) {
thisfield = ListGetAt(sortedList,i);
WriteOutput(form[thisfield]);
}
/cfscript
Hope this helps

Re: Sorting a form collection?
I can think of a number of workarounds, i was just wondering if there was a
built in function to accomplish the sorting
changing the format may be a good solution though...
allthough it would change the number 1 to 01...
that number would not match up with the uniqueid in the database anymore...
I guess i would just need to reformat it when comparing it to the database
with something like
numberformat(numb, 0) ???
the list wouldnt work since all the form fields are radio buttons and some
will not exist if they werent selected, I can keep them all alive through
dynamic cfparams on the action page which would keep all fields in the
collection...but form.fieldnames would only hold fields that were selected
before the form was submitted
i COULD move the params to the top of the form i suppose but like i
said...the list could potentially get very large so I'd rather stay away
from too many list functions
thanks for the response !

Re: Sorting a form collection?
Ewok, I guess i would just need to reformat it when comparing it to the database with something like No need... You can give SQL the number 1 and it will still find 1 in the database. It would only have problems differenciating between the two if you are storing the number in a text/char field. the list wouldnt work since all the form fields are radio buttons and some will not exist if they werent selected, I can keep them all alive through dynamic cfparams on the action page which would keep all fields in the collection...but form.fieldnames would only hold fields that were selected before the form was submitted i COULD move the params to the top of the form i suppose but like i said...the list could potentially get very large so I'd rather stay away from too many list functions Hmmm Guessing here I'm assuming that your doing something like a survey with a number of questions, hence the form field names Q1, Q2,... Qn and that you are storing only the number as a number and not Q in the database. If you're using a query to generate the form on the previous page and ordering your questions correctly on that page, then you can use the same query to get a list of the question numbers in the correct order on your action page. To process the existing answers on your action page what you need to do is something like this : cfquery name=QuestionQRY SELECT QuestionNumber FROM QuestionTable ORDER BY QuestionNumber /cfquery cfset QuestionList = valuelist(QuestionQRY.questionnumber) cfloop list=#QuestionList# index=QNo cfset thisfield = QNumberFormat(QNo,00) cfif IsDefined(form[thisfield]) !--- Process a question where I have an answer --- cfelse !--- Do what ever you need to when a question isn't answered --- /cfif /cfloop Hope this makes sense and helps.

(Please let the answer be no...) Thanks for the reply.

I've got a problem with an application I built for an office. The Cold Fusion, browser-based app performs all their main office functions. The hardware setup is an office server hooked up with 2 workstations. The app is on the server, of course, and both workstations access the app through Internet Explorer. When both office workers are working on the app and access the client account area simultaneously, which assigns the ClientID to a session variable, they both end up with the same Client on their screens.

I recently went through the entire app and locked all the variables.

Is this happening because they are accessing the app through their browsers directly to the server through the LAN rather than through the Internet? Solutions: I thought perhaps I could create an APPLICATION name that is unique for each user of a workstation. Like CFAPPLICATION Name=RCHNetwork#variable_picked_up_from_computer_being_used#, or something to that effect that would allow each user to have a unique Application name and solve the problem that way. Would that work? If so, what are the possibilies for values to use in the CFApplication name? Another approach might be to duplication the application in separate folders for each user and have one using a hard-coded CFAPPLICATION Name such as Name=RCHNetworkUser1 for the first workstation, and Name=RCHNetworkUser2 for the second application. Would this solve the problem of sharing variables? I can't believe I'm just now running into this problem this late in development. Unfortunately, I develop on a single workstation connected to my server, rather than with 2, so I haven't run into this problem before... Ideas? Thanks for any help anyone will give!

RE: Problems with session variables getting mixed for 2 different users of office application
Hi, Joe and thanks for the reply. I'm enabling ClientManagement and SessionManagement in the CFApplication tag, but only using Session variables in the app at this point. All variables are locked... The problem begins when both workstations login to the the section of the app where a ClientID is assigned to a session variable...Session.ClientID. The two workstations are overwriting each other's Session.ClientID variables.

Anyone here using Linkpoint/basic HTML with a CF-based ecommerce system? We are trying to post payment data to them via cfhttp but we keep getting an error back from their web server. Their tech support claims that it is because we don't have a live website yet.

Installation problem with MX - HELP!!
I finally bit the bullet and decided to upgrade my dev server to CFMX. I downloaded the server from MM and set to installing it. When I installed it to coexist with my already installed CF5.0 server, it worked, but VERY slowly. So I removed it again and installed it this time to upgrade my CF5 I realise this was a mistake, because now nothing works. In my wsconfig.log file, I see the following - does this tell me what's the problem or is it a result of another problem? What do I do now? HELP!!

RE: Problems with session variables getting mixed for 2 different users of office application
Hi, Scott and thanks for the reply. They do have the app bookmarked, but there's no CFID/CFTOKEN pair in the address. I've not been appending them to addresses and links, nor embedding them in forms, not even adding them in a CFLOCATION, as in CFLOCATION URL=clientmanagement.cfm AddToken=No I'm trying to understand how the browsers/workstations track the session variables. Perhaps they depend on the CFID/CFTOKEN pair to tell the sessions apart? Is that where the problem is? That I'm not including the CFID/CFTOKEN pair in every link between pages and every form submission? I thought this info was tracked in cookies on the clients computers by enabling SessionManagement... and thereby, eliminating the need to append the CFID/CFTOKEN pair to every URL and embedding it in every form...???

I wrote it originally creating a dynamic table each time a survey was created. to hold results for each survey and it worked great .as long as I entered all the data to build the new survey heh : ) there was just too much room for error that way to let joe blow create a new survey so im changing it around some (quite a bit actuallyok okcompletley!)

RE: Problems with session variables getting mixed for 2 different users of office application
I've seen this exact issue when PCs are built by ghosting. What happens is the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies get set by the site and then get propogated to all machines based on the original. Try clearing the browser cookies on one of the machines. -Original Message- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 8:20 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Problems with session variables getting mixed for 2 different users of office application Hi, all. I've got a problem with an application I built for an office. The Cold Fusion, browser-based app performs all their main office functions. The hardware setup is an office server hooked up with 2 workstations. The app is on the server, of course, and both workstations access the app through Internet Explorer. When both office workers are working on the app and access the client account area simultaneously, which assigns the ClientID to a session variable, they both end up with the same Client on their screens. The Session.ClientID variable is being redefined when they are both using the Client account area. I'm using Windows 2000 server and CF 4.5.2. I recently went through the entire app and locked all the variables. First, I thought that each browser would establish its own session and the bleeding of variables wouldn't occur under these circumstances. Is this happening because they are accessing the app through their browsers directly to the server through the LAN rather than through the Internet? Solutions: I thought perhaps I could create an APPLICATION name that is unique for each user of a workstation. Like CFAPPLICATION Name=RCHNetwork#variable_picked_up_from_computer_being_used#, or something to that effect that would allow each user to have a unique Application name and solve the problem that way. Would that work? If so, what are the possibilies for values to use in the CFApplication name? Another approach might be to duplication the application in separate folders for each user and have one using a hard-coded CFAPPLICATION Name such as Name=RCHNetworkUser1 for the first workstation, and Name=RCHNetworkUser2 for the second application. Would this solve the problem of sharing variables? I can't believe I'm just now running into this problem this late in development. Unfortunately, I develop on a single workstation connected to my server, rather than with 2, so I haven't run into this problem before... Ideas? Thanks for any help anyone will give!

RE: PKI management tools using CFML
Cheers Webguy, I'm not using LDAP at the moment but will probably seriously consider it in the future. Basically eversince I moved over from a Windows environment to linux, I've been trying to find a workaround for the cgi.remote_user variable presence. My apps originally detected the remote_user variable (user identification) then applied various application policies based upon the rules stored in the MS SQL database for the application. This worked nicely as my apps were all only accessible via VPN and thus user authentication and identification was taken care of by our win2k VPN server. I've since changed our infrastructure over to linux and thus the cgi.remote_user variable is no longer available unless I re-introduce a manual login (authenticating against .htaccess) which is not what we want. We want to keep everything as transparent as possible. My solution is to implement pki across our vpn, which would then furnish me with cgi.cert_serial etc variables, which I can use as user identification values for my application policy rules tables. This also furnishes me with an additional security layer for my apps. I was aware of the CFLDAP/SSL bug in linux, which was possibly one of my reasons for staving off the changeover to LDAP at this stage. Anyway, thanks for the links. Especiaslly the ospki book link. I've been glossing through it over the last hour or so and it has some very useful info contained in it.

RE: The New Macromedia Website
However, to put things bluntly, HTML sucks. It sucks really bad. It's the worst thing to happen to application interfaces in the short history of computing, next to the QWERTY keyboard. The success of HTML interfaces has been in spite of this awful step backwards in interface design, not because of it. HTML doesn't suck. It's a beautifully simple means of presenting textual information. And with CSS, the potential is there for it to be presented just as elegantly as any print-based layout. However, HTML wasn't designed to function as an application user interface. Which then gets to everything else you said. -Kevin ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.

I've got a problem with an application I built for an office. The Cold Fusion, browser-based app performs all their main office functions. The hardware setup is an office server hooked up with 2 workstations. The app is on the server, of course, and both workstations access the app through Internet Explorer. When both office workers are working on the app and access the client account area simultaneously, which assigns the ClientID to a session variable, they both end up with the same Client on their screens. The Session.ClientID variable is being redefined when they are both using the Client account area. I'm using Windows 2000 server and CF 4.5.2. I recently went through the entire app and locked all the variables. First, I thought that each browser would establish its own session and the bleeding of variables wouldn't occur under these circumstances. Is this happening because they are accessing the app through their browsers directly to the server through the LAN rather than through the Internet? Solutions: I thought perhaps I could create an APPLICATION name that is unique for each user of a workstation. Like CFAPPLICATION Name=RCHNetwork#variable_picked_up_from_computer_being_used#, or something to that effect that would allow each user to have a unique Application name and solve the problem that way. Would that work? If so, what are the possibilies for values to use in the CFApplication name? Another approach might be to duplication the application in separate folders for each user and have one using a hard-coded CFAPPLICATION Name such as Name=RCHNetworkUser1 for the first workstation, and Name=RCHNetworkUser2 for the second application. Would this solve the problem of sharing variables? I can't believe I'm just now running into this problem this late in development. Unfortunately, I develop on a single workstation connected to my server, rather than with 2, so I haven't run into this problem before... Ideas? Thanks for any help anyone will give!

RE: Installation problem with MX - HELP!!
Thinking that the file C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\jrunwin32.dll might be the problem, I tried to delete it and run the IIs config command again, and maybe that will create the jrun.dll that seems to be missing. But I can't delete the jrunwin32.dll because it's in use or access is denied. Now what? I can't go forward, I can't go back. Oh great. And all the dev copies of my sites are disabled now, I cant even get to any admin areas of anything, and my PC's home page has gone because it's a CFM page too.

Ewok, I guess i would just need to reformat it when comparing it to the database with something like No need... You can give SQL the number 1 and it will still find 1 in the database. It would only have problems differenciating between the two if you are storing the number in a text/char field. the list wouldnt work since all the form fields are radio buttons and some will not exist if they werent selected, I can keep them all alive through dynamic cfparams on the action page which would keep all fields in the collection...but form.fieldnames would only hold fields that were selected before the form was submitted i COULD move the params to the top of the form i suppose but like i said...the list could potentially get very large so I'd rather stay away from too many list functions Hmmm Guessing here I'm assuming that your doing something like a survey with a number of questions, hence the form field names Q1, Q2,... Qn and that you are storing only the number as a number and not Q in the database. If you're using a query to generate the form on the previous page and ordering your questions correctly on that page, then you can use the same query to get a list of the question numbers in the correct order on your action page. To process the existing answers on your action page what y ou need to do is something like this : cfquery name=QuestionQRY SELECT QuestionNumber FROM QuestionTable ORDER BY QuestionNumber /cfquery cfset QuestionList = valuelist(QuestionQRY.questionnumber) cfloop list=#QuestionList# index=QNo cfset thisfield = QNumberFormat(QNo,00) cfif IsDefined(form[thisfield]) !--- Process a question where I have an answer --- cfelse !--- Do what ever you need to when a question isn't answered --- /cfif /cfloop Hope this makes sense and helps.

I've got a problem with an application I built for an office. The Cold Fusion, browser-based app performs all their main office functions. The hardware setup is an office server hooked up with 2 workstations. The app is on the server, of course, and both workstations access the app through Internet Explorer. When both office workers are working on the app and access the client account area simultaneously, which assigns the ClientID to a session variable, they both end up with the same Client on their screens. The Session.ClientID variable is being redefined when they are both using the Client account area. I'm using Windows 2000 server and CF 4.5.2. I recently went through the entire app and locked all the variables. First, I thought that each browser would establish its own session and the bleeding of variables wouldn't occur under these circumstances. Is this happening because they are accessing the app through their browsers directly to the server through the LAN rather than through the Internet? Solutions: I thought perhaps I could create an APPLICATION name that is unique for each user of a workstation. Like CFAPPLICATION Name=RCHNetwork#variable_picked_up_from_computer_being_used#, or something to that effect that would allow each user to have a unique Application name and solve the problem that way. Would that work? If so, what are the possibilies for values to use in the CFApplication name? Another approach might be to duplication the application in separate folders for each user and have one using a hard-coded CFAPPLICATION Name such as Name=RCHNetworkUser1 for the first workstation, and Name=RCHNetworkUser2 for the second application. Would this solve the problem of sharing variables? I can't believe I'm just now running into this problem this late in development. Unfortunately, I develop on a single workstation connected to my server, rather than with 2, so I haven't run into this problem before... Ideas? Thanks for any help anyone will give!

Anyone who is surprised by our RIA deployment has, frankly, been living under a stone :) And it is purely evolution. It's CF on the back end, several of the apps are pure CF. Nothing shocking there. We have just four RIAs on the new site - there are five pure CF applications. People have been using Flash UIs on CF apps for quite some time, certainly prior to the MX launches.

RE: Problems with session variables getting mixed for 2 different users of office application
I just had one of the office workers open each workstation's browser and delete all the cookies in the temporary Internet files. She deleted them manually, so they're gone. After that, I had her close and reopen each browser and the application and access a different client's file, thereby setting a different Session.ClientID on each workstation. I then had her refresh one of the browsers and, sure enough, the last workstation to access the Client Management area, which first sets the Session.ClientID variable showed up on the other browser. It' like this... Browser accessing client app Session.ClientID is set 2nd Browser accesses client app, different client Session.ClientID is set on 2nd workstation First browser is refreshed Client info pulled up on 2nd workstation now appears on first. So, the Session.ClientID variable is being overwritten each time the app redefines the Session.ClientID. The two workstations are not maintaining separate sessions... Is appending CFID/CFTOKEN variables to every link and embedding them in every form the answer?

Would that work? If so, what are the possibilies for values to use in the CFApplication name? Another approach might be to duplication the application in separate folders for each user and have one using a hard-coded CFAPPLICATION Name such as Name=RCHNetworkUser1 for the first workstation, and Name=RCHNetworkUser2 for the second application. Would this solve the problem of sharing variables? I can't believe I'm just now running into this problem this late in development. Unfortunately, I develop on a single workstation connected to my server, rather than with 2, so I haven't run into this problem before... Ideas? Thanks for any help anyone will give!

New Macromedia website- I love the interface! :)
I LOVE IT!! I just went to the Developer's Exchange..and then the sign-in page. I ..umm..don't remember doing it but I was in there as Gelly Bean ^_^ I'm blown away by the interface! I really really like it! The buttons..the color scheme.. Its just..its really visually appealing!! KUDOS! And when you update..it pops a window saying update complete ..everything is so cool! One thing I noticed though..is that my iexplore.exe process hits 90% CPU usage when I access the flash interface, And at times it can be a little sluggish. So! When are we getting a tutorial on How We Did It..with sample code etc. :) -Gel ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: New MM.com
One thing I noticed is that about 90 KB of the initial load is XML/CSS/JS/HTML. I bet that if HTTP compression were enabled for the larger files the bandwidth use for the initial load would drop below quite a bit. I've always avoided HTML compression because of bugs in various browsers (such as IE handing the compressed data off to plugins such as Flash instead of the uncompressed data). Is this no longer the case? Are people using HTML compression in production environments successfully? Benjamin S.

Auto-populating form item
Folks, We've got this data entry form that allows entry, query, record deletion, and a host of other functionality. One thing it needs to do is after the first three form items are completed (it's a subject id.t number), the fourth auto-populates with the subject initials. This should be seamless to the user, i.e., no refresh of the page or submitting of data, so my question is how can we take form items 1, 2, and 3 and use them to dynamically call a query to retrieve the initials from a database? Or is this beyond the scope of CF? Cheers! Lincoln T.

But I can't delete the jrunwin32.dll because it's in use or access is denied. Now what? I can't go forward, I can't go back. Oh great. And all the dev copies of my sites are disabled now, I cant even get to any admin areas of anything, and my PC's home page has gone because it's a CFM page too.

RE: Linkpoint
I'm curious about linkpoint's processing because it appears they have a subscription based system included with their API (even for the CFX) but it says nothing about how much it costs to set up an account with them? Do users need a merchant account before they can begin using linkpoint's API? I'm not sure exactly how their program works. Any help would be great.

We are trying to post payment data to them via cfhttp but we keep getting an error back from their web server. Their tech support claims that it is because we don't have a live website yet. I have a feeling it has something to do with their website checking the referer, but I've tried to send what they are expecting with cfhttpparam but it still doesn't seem to work.
