RE: Request for Review: Variables in CFML
Hi Jim, Isn't it possible for CFMX to scale session vars across a cluster now? You don't mention that, or I missed it (whether it's a good idea or not is another matter entirely). Did you hit on session management in a cluster? If it were me I'd go with client vars, but I guess using either client or session is now possible. Just a coupla thoughts at a godawful late (early for some) hour of the morning. Matt Robertson [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com I've stopped 47,815 spam messages.

(CFMX) Array Max size?
I've got a 2 dimensional array (well, it's actually someone else's) and when I run it I get this error message: The system has attempted to use an undefined value, which usually indicates a programming error, either in your code or some system code. Null Pointers are another name for undefined values. I've traced the problem to the array itself. When there are 89 entries in it, no problem. Once a 90th entry is added, it chokes. The 89th entry looks like this (in CFSCRIPT): langs[89][1] = F; langs[89][2] = es-bo; langs[89][3] = Spanish (Bolivia); If I cut out every entry over 89, no problem. If I add a 90th entry, even as a duplicate of 89, I get the error. Can someone else please test out their CFMX system for this? Just a simple 2 dimensional array with 3 items per row. See what the max is for you. I'm using UD3.

Re: (CFMX) Array Max size?
OK, this is stranger than hell even though I got it to work. Basically, the error is thrown when a CFMODULE is called that has a certain amount of code in it. On first examination, it looks like it was the array size as limiting the array size causes the template to run OK. This was proven not to be the issue in experimentation. Additional tests made it look like ANY call to the large array from within a CFOUTPUT was causing a problem. Very strange. One thing that I tried was to remove the cfsetting EnableCFOutputOnly=YES from the template and all of a sudden it worked.

Re: (CFMX) Array Max size?
Should be...max java class size issue? It's reminiscent of a problem I've had using JSP custom tags in JRun, where the compilation would fail if you had too many custom tag invocations in a page. The only solution seemed to be to split the source up using JSP includes - quite annoying at the time. I think the error message there talked about illegal target of jump or branch.

Accessing JS variables in CF?

RE: Accessing JS variables in CF?
Dave,
You can't inter-mingle server-side code (CF) and client-side code (JS.) CF
runs strictly on the server, while the JS in this example runs strictly on
the client-side.
You can use techniques like covered in my article Client-to-Server
Communication Using DHTML--which is at:
http://www.pengoworks.com/index.cfm?action=articles:gatewayApi
To simplify the work, I've written a Gateway JavaScript API (JSAPI) which
can be downloaded at:
http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/js/gateway/
Conveniently enough, I even have included examples to do what you're trying
to do:
http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/js/gateway/zipcode.htm
Hope this helps!

CFC Performance Best Practice
The question I have, is there any performance advantages and/or disadvantages to one large CFC file versus several smaller ones? I'm writing an application using a CFC for all my administration database tasks. Currently I have everything in one CFC file. The tasks could probably be logically broken up into three or four smaller CFC files by function type. My question is there any performance reason to do this? The single large file will probably top out at about 20K, does this add to the overhead of any template calling on the CFC? -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource Sacramento, CA ~| 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 This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Timeout/restart
Hi all! I just want to make sure I'm not missing something here. We have our server (CF 5.0 on Solaris) set to timeout requests at 30 seconds and restart the server after 3 long-running requests. We've found this to be optimal if the server hangs due to one application losing a datasource (and we have several different apps and can't let one bring them all down). However, I just realized that it also counts requests exceeding the set time that have the URL parameter of RequestTimeout=XXX (above what the admin is set at). This seems like a flaw because there are pages that will always run above the admin setting and I can't have the thing restarting every 3 of them. You would think it would overlook the ones specifically stating they will run longer. Otherwise the whole process stops and session variables are lost. Is there a workaround or something I'm missing? Thanks!

RE: CFC Performance Best Practice
Your best bet is to separate CFCs into their logical parts. This will aid in usuability and readablity. Performance differences would be negligable(sp?). Remember that CFCs are components and most developers will see them as that. So instead of having one big CFC for ecommerce app, you would have a component for each component of the ecommerce application (customers,orders,cart,etc..).

Not really (in terms of real-world, under load performance). Currently I have everything in one CFC file. The tasks could probably be logically broken up into three or four smaller CFC files by function type. In terms of maintainability and readability - which should generally be overwhelming concerns - you almost certainly want to break your CFC up into more logical components. Whilst I don't want to minimize performance issues, they really should take a back seat to maintainability issues.

CFLOOP, another way?
Hi, When you use the cfhttp tag to post information to a web page, at the same time as you are using the cfloop tag, the page will submit the wrong number of variables to the page depending on which iteration you are going through in the loop. For example, if you are on the second iteration of the loop, the page will post two sets of variables, if you are on the third iteration it will submit three sets of variables. I’m not sure why. It may be a problem with one of the cf tags, or a problem that occurs when the two tags interact. I'm not sure if there is another possible way to perform the same functionality as the cfloop, iteration, without using the cfloop tag or maybe there is another possible solution to this? Here is an example of the problem. CFLOOP INDEX = n FROM = 1 TO = 2 CFHTTP METHOD = POST URL = http://www.computing.surrey.ac.uk/cgi-bin/R.Peel/getpost.pl; PATH = c:\ FILE = result#n#.html CFHTTPPARAM TYPE = FORMFIELD NAME = user VALUE = hello CFHTTPPARAM TYPE = FORMFIELD NAME = 'product VALUE = product1 /CFHTTP /CFLOOP The url above submits two variables to a page. This page tells you what variables were submitted. Two files are generated. In the first it shows that one set of variables were submitted. In the second “result2.html” it shows that two sets of variables were submitted. I think if I can find another way to perform a loop, I will not have to use these two tags together, but there may be another solution. ~| 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 Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: (CFMX) Array Max size?
Yup, that would be it. My guess is that the array initialization generates enough code that it would exceed the Java class size limit but it interacts with the enableCFoutputOnly setting in a way that prevents the error occurring when it generates output... Edit the appropriate XML file to allow the generated Java code to hang around so you can see the difference in the generated code...

OK, this is stranger than hell even though I got it to work. Basically, the error is thrown when a CFMODULE is called that has a certain amount of code in it. On first examination, it looks like it was the array size as limiting the array size causes the template to run OK. This was proven not to be the issue in experimentation. Additional tests made it look like ANY call to the large array from within a CFOUTPUT was causing a problem. Very strange. One thing that I tried was to remove the cfsetting EnableCFOutputOnly=YES from the template and all of a sudden it worked.

It looks as if you need a display:block so the elements on the right don't overlap the space set aside for the elements on the left. Also - if your not using float: left - the items from right can overlap left. Also - it is possible you need clear:right - depending on how you have your div's and such set up.

Change the two DIVs inside the SideBar DIV from left:5px to left:130px; Also, instead of setting your height for the SideBar DIV to 1000px, try just using 100% instead.

RE: OT: css, dhtml question
Totally unrelated, but on the same topic. How might I go about putting a footer bar at the bottom of my page using CSS, rather than a table. I've had no problems with topbars, sidebars (either side) and the main content pane(s), but I can't get stuff to sit at the bottom of the page correctly. I tried 'bottom' (complementing top) but it seems to be tied to the browser's size, not the page's size, which doesn't work if the page scrolls, at least on IE6.

RE: A Quick Question to Raymond RE: Your PowerPoint presentation...
I'm trying to remember myself - guess I should learn to use the Notes field a bit more. ;) I believe the idea was to hack your own session.urltoken. Basically, every link would have x=YYY, where Y would be an encrypted form of the username and password. Then you would decrypt the value and relogin using cflogin each hit. Of course, that could be dangerous if someone breaks your encryption. As for the session thing - what you would do is simply store the username and password (and roles) in session values, then use session.urlToken. This would be a bit simpler for sure, although you would want to use the UUID for Session Token setting. Hope that makes sense. === Raymond Camden, ColdFusion Jedi Master for Mindseye, Inc Member of Team Macromedia (http://www.macromedia.com/go/teammacromedia) Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Blog : www.camdenfamily.com/morpheus/blog Yahoo IM : morpheus My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. - Yoda -Original Message- From: Jeff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 24, 2003 10:18 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: A Quick Question to Raymond RE: Your PowerPoint presentation...

Re: OT: css, dhtml question
Personally - I handle footers in .cfm includes.. I find it much easier - and simply it includes it at the end of the code. So on shorter and longer pages it simply displays at end. If you needed to actually attach a footer to the bottom of the browser - something like div id=FooterAbs style=position: absolute; bottom: 0px; z-index: 300; would work. I added z-index more for demonstration - The issue is - that you can overalp content. Unlike using an include - that will put it at the bottom no matter what - you will need to scroll to get content beyone viewable screen -but footer will hang on to the bottom edge. Use it carefully because there are almost always some trouble spots. IF your footer can overlap content - not a biggie. In one case I used it - I assigned z-index of -100 ( which also has it's own bugs on browser versions) so on shorter page content the footer didn't interrupt. hope that helps jay miller Barney Boisvert wrote: Totally unrelated, but on the same topic.

CFMX Upgrade Issue and Solution
Good afternoon, I just upgraded my production web server to CFMX Pro this past weekend, and encountered an interesting error I wished to share with the group On of the functions that we use CF for is web based reporting from the Lawson Financial Package, including a PO Printout form. Before the upgrade, the PO Print worked without any issues. After the upgrade, certain PO's would not printout for us, and instead returned the following error. Error Executing Database Query.[MERANT][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Oracle][ODBC]Restricted data type attribute violation. The specific sequence of files included or processed is: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Dev\Lawson\poscreen.cfm As you can see, the error message does not make much sense. We went so far as to restore the Test server to CF 5 and make sure that the page worked properly on the previous version. After much research, we found that the error was linked to the case statement below. CASE when lawson.poline.taxable_flag = 'Y' Then (((lawson.poline.tax_code/100)*lawson.poline.taxbl_unt_cst)* lawson.poline.quantity) End as taxamt The statement above does not include an else statement. For some reason, CF 5 Pro did not care about this, but CF MX was returning an error, even though the page compiled fine. Once the else statement was added, the problem went away. I just wanted to share this issue and solution with the group, in case anyone else comes across a similar issue Any questions, please let me know Thanks Dave Sueltenfuss Application Developer Arch Wireless Phone: 508-870-6711 Fax: 508-870-8011 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~| 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 Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: OT: css, dhtml question
Perhaps a better explaination is in order. The app is internal for an IE5.5+ only audience. It's quite visually complex, and I'm trying to keep the number of page loads down as the presentation changes as much as possible. I have a base page set up like this: +---+ | | +---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +---+---+---+ | | +---+ The top 4 content areas all have variable content, while the footer is static. As well, the top 4 areas might not all be there, and they might be added or removed client-side. This is all working just dandy using absolute positioning and hiding stuff. However, I need to slap that footer bar at the bottom, and I need it to start below the other content areas (no overlap). I can't figure out a good way to do that, because I don't know how tall the middle 3 areas are (if they are present) until the client renders them. I might well be pursueing a pipe-dream, in which case I'll find another way, but it seems like this should be possible. thanks, barneyb --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral (formerly PIER System, Inc.)

RE: Request for Review: Variables in CFML
Sean wrote: I'd be interested to hear from folks - like Matt - who use them and prefer them to session variables. You can pretty much take Jon Hall's post and add 'me too' to that. I had horrifying experiences with disappearing session vars, mostly related to code running on shared servers and the instability that comes from relying on memory-based storage. Using cvars for session management insulated my apps from cf service restarts, even cold reboots, so long as the next page request falls within the inactivity-based 'session' expiration the app still retains the user's session. Now, that's not the same environment as a cluster at all, but take that and couple it to the hoops necessary to jump thru when using an app that requires a lot of persistent vars (i.e. Step 1: copy to request scope. Step 2 process Step 3 copy back to session scope, and use locks... Or lock everything individually everywhere) compared to the relative simplicity of simply using cvars in code. I never missed the inability to store complex values given the ability to use CFWDDX to handle that issue. This is extra coding just like the locking I was whining about above, but my frequency of need for complex values isn't anything like the frequency associated with locking, and planning efficient use of same. I've never had a site that had high enough traffic to be able to notice the load coming off the cvar storage db, so I can't say at what point a cvar-based session management scheme will fall down where a svar-based one will not. To me, cvars are simpler to use and are, in my admittedly not all-encompassing experience, inherently more stable given their more permanent storage medium (a db, of course).

RE: CFMX cannot handle charset for URL variables
Found a solution! CF MX has no bug! When I use a cflocation tag, I'll use URLEncodedFormat function with a second hidden parameter encoding like: cflocation url=url.cfm?text=#URLEncodedFormat(myUnicodeText,utf-8)# URLEncodedFormat function converts double-byte chars to equivalent forms. Very good! But why URLEncodedFormat doesn't use the utf-8 by default? Or why setEncoding(URL,UTF-8) function doesn't affect the URLEncodedFormat function? -Original Message- From: Murat Demirci [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 24, 2003 7:01 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CFMX cannot handle charset for URL variables When I type a unicode string in the form field and submit the form, there is no problem.

RE: CFMX Webservices hangup
Tyler, perhaps if you CFHTTP to it first as a test with a timeout of 10 seconds of something of that nature? And, if an error occurs, trap it with cftry and cfcatch.. and then display a message that states, Sorry the x service is not available now. Check back in a few hours. The CFHTTP would only check if there is an issue contacting the server. If the server is up.. but the page is returning a blank html page.. you may also want to interrogate the contents of the page before you call the web-service(cfhttp.filecontent) for a line of code that stays static..

Re: JetNexus for IIS
Before you do anything, Bill, give me a call and I'll get you a trial version of our product LoRCAT, the Load Reduction and Concentration Analysis Tool for ColdFusion. It not only performs a compile-time compression of all your ColdFusion, JS, CSS, SQL, etc., but it surgically analyzes your entire code base and shows you exactly where to concentrate your performance enhancement efforts. The speed increases are pretty phenomenal after you go through LoRCAT's Analysis and Production cycles. We haven't really formally announced it yet because our new site to sell it isn't up yet, but I can extend your trial period until the end of April to get around that problem.

Of course, that could be dangerous if someone breaks your encryption. As for the session thing - what you would do is simply store the username and password (and roles) in session values, then use session.urlToken. This would be a bit simpler for sure, although you would want to use the UUID for Session Token setting. Hope that makes sense. Yeah, it does.

Re: Automatic File List in Database
Well you could use CFDIRECTORY to get the file list and store it in the database. To keep that list current is another matter. It depends on how current the list needs to be (or how often the files change). If it's not too frequently you could have a scheduled task that routinely deletes the file list from the database and sticks in the current list (same way you would get it in the database initially).

RE: OT: css, dhtml question
Barney, I worked on a web application once that worked (and looked) almost identical to what you have there. We used DHTML (DynAPI a JS Library) and it gave height's etc of the DIV's after content had been set.. thus being able to put footers at the bottom. my point, yes it can be done, if DynAPI had the numbers available to see then the browser has them.. take a look in the DynAPI library and see how they did it. specifically the setHTML() function somewher (been about 2 years sorry) -Original Message- From: Barney Boisvert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 25 March 2003 6:11 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: OT: css, dhtml question Perhaps a better explaination is in order. The app is internal for an IE5.5+ only audience. It's quite visually complex, and I'm trying to keep the number of page loads down as the presentation changes as much as possible. I have a base page set up like this: +---+ | | +---+---+---+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +---+---+---+ | | +---+ The top 4 content areas all have variable content, while the footer is static. As well, the top 4 areas might not all be there, and they might be added or removed client-side. This is all working just dandy using absolute positioning and hiding stuff. However, I need to slap that footer bar at the bottom, and I need it to start below the other content areas (no overlap). I can't figure out a good way to do that, because I don't know how tall the middle 3 areas are (if they are present) until the client renders them. I might well be pursueing a pipe-dream, in which case I'll find another way, but it seems like this should be possible. thanks, barneyb --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral (formerly PIER System, Inc.)

I find it much easier - and simply it includes it at the end of the code. So on shorter and longer pages it simply displays at end. If you needed to actually attach a footer to the bottom of the browser - something like div id=FooterAbs style=position: absolute; bottom: 0px; z-index: 300; would work. I added z-index more for demonstration - The issue is - that you can overalp content. Unlike using an include - that will put it at the bottom no matter what - you will need to scroll to get content beyone viewable screen -but footer will hang on to the bottom edge. Use it carefully because there are almost always some trouble spots. IF your footer can overlap content - not a biggie. In one case I used it - I assigned z-index of -100 ( which also has it's own bugs on browser versions) so on shorter page content the footer didn't interrupt. hope that helps jay miller Barney Boisvert wrote: Totally unrelated, but on the same topic. How might I go about putting a footer bar at the bottom of my page using CSS, rather than a table. I've had no problems with topbars, sidebars (either side) and the main content pane(s), but I can't get stuff to sit at the bottom of the page correctly. I tried 'bottom' (complementing top) but it seems to be tied to the browser's size, not the page's size, which doesn't work if the page scrolls, at least on IE6. Use JS to set it dynamically? footerbar.style.top = Math.max(menubar.style.height, contentpane.style.height) + topbar.style.height; that seems like a horrible way to do it to me. barneyb --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral (formerly PIER System, Inc.)

RE: Automatic File List in Database
Is performance a huge issue? If it's not, just use the database named 'the filesystem' and 'query' it with CFDIRECTORY rather than CFQUERY. If that won't work for whatever reason, you'd have to use a scheduled task to use CFDIRECTORY and refresh the database periodically. The former will result in instant updates with no administrative overhead, the latter will be faster for recalling, but cost to maintain the database. barneyb --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral (formerly PIER System, Inc.)
