Re: Looping to find ONLY specific XML Children
Hey Shawn, It's just 9am here so my apologies for a short answer (or rather, the short hint) - try looking into XPath. Either do a search on Google or take a look at the XPath spec http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath A demo of the XML you're using would've been useful, but from what you've said I'm assuming it's something like this: fred http://www.somewhere.com From what I can see, get the XML into a variable then construct your XPath var, perhaps something like Then this: That should throw all of the elements that match your XPath expression into headerlinks, which will be an array. Best to read through some articles on XPath 'cos I'm sure that the above expression won't do exactly what you're after. The W3C spec is, as usual, hefty and complicated (especially at 9am!) hence the reason why I think my expression won't work properly but it should give you a pointer on where to start looking.

RE: Looping to find ONLY specific XML Children
> I am having a problem that I desperately need help with. I > am working with consuming XML WebServices using CFMX, here is > my problem. Shawn, Try using XMLSearch() -- it uses XPath to grab the bits you want (kinda like SQL for XML). That _should_ (I'm not an XPath guru by any means!) return an array of all the HeaderLink nodes -- you can loop through these and output as you desire! HTH, if not it's something to start with!

Does anyone know how to programatically test if the SiteMinder Authentication/Authorization service is running.

I am new to java, almost no real world experience so I was somewhat confused by reading the docs on these tools. If anyone here knows of any tools or has made use of these with CFMX can you let me know what was involved. Also is anyone using Crystal with CFMX, if so what version of Crystal. If anyone from Macromedia is reading this, can there some kind of plan in future release of CF to include a report writer - maybe one of these open source tools.

Sharing Cookies between .aspx and CF5?
I just read in Ben's CFWACK that it's easy for CF apps to read cookies set by other apps and specifically it says .asp set cookies. Furthermore, it gives hints and tips to reading cookies set by other apps if the path isn't the same. This puzzles me ... I thought cookies set by .aspx weren't readable by CF. Can anyone clarify this for me please? Specifically, I have a need to be able to tell if a .aspx page has set a session cookie or not. I've been working around reading page headers etc, when if I can just detect the presence of a cookie set by .aspx and know what the value is, that'll do the trick in a jiffy.

However, it may be the case that the ASP.NET cookies don't contain plaintext values, in which case you'd have to figure out how to interpret the values from CF.

RE: ergonomics
Here's some general office setup ergonomics information that I copied off of our ergonomics department intranet site. Chair Seatpan height should be set at a height that positions the upper legs parallel with the floor while both feet are flat on the floor or on a footrest. Both feet should be firmly on the floor or footrest to provide a solid base for the seated body. If a footrest is used, it should be approximately the same size as the seatpan. It should have a non-slip surface and stand firmly on the floor. If the feet are not solidly positioned, the body will compensate with the muscles of the lower back and may cause stress. Sit all the way to the back of the seatpan to get the maximum back support. With the back against the vertical seat cushion, there should be at least an inch of clearance between the front of the seatpan cushion and the back of the knees. This will prevent cutting off of the blood supply to the lower legs. The width of the seatpan should accommodate the width of the individual without undue pressure from the armrests. The seatback cushion should be adjusted to a height that fits the natural curve of the lower back. When a person sits, the natural curve of the backbone straightens, causing stress to the disks in the back. The seatback encourages the natural curve of the back and reduces stress. The lumbar support should be centered 9 to 10 inches above the lowest point on the seat. The angle between the seatpan and seatback should be 100 to 120 degrees. Armrests should be set to just below the elbow height. The arms should not rest on the armrests while using the keyboard but can rest when pausing. Armrests should be adjustable for both height and width. Keyboard and Mouse Sit in the chair with the shoulders relaxed, and the arms to the side of the body. Forearms should be positioned parallel with the floor with the wrists in a neutral or straight posture. Fingertips should then just touch the second row of keys. Rear of the keyboard should be slightly lower than the front for a negative angle. This promotes a neutral or straight wrist position that minimizes stress. Small feet under the rear of the keyboard should not be used as they can cause the wrists to be positioned awkwardly causing stress. Wrist rest in front of the keyboard should be used to encourage the wrists to be positioned in a neutral posture. The wrists should not be placed on the wrist rest while keying in data, but can be rested during pauses. Mouse should be at the same height and either on the left or right side of the keyboard depending on the handedness of the individual. If the keyboard is on an adjustable height tray, the mouse should be located on the end of the tray or on a small platform at the end of the tray. If the available space is limited and the number pad is used infrequently, a small raised platform can be positioned over that end of the keyboard for the mouse. This will eliminate the extended reaches to the desktop with the mouse and avoid stress to the back. Monitor Monitor should be directly in front of the body with the eye-to-screen distance between 16 to 28 inches. Top of the screen should be at or slightly below eye level. The focus point of the eyes determines the distance from the eyes to the screen. Keeping the eyes within close focus range will reduce the requirement for the eyes to refocus when looking between a document and the screen. Constant refocusing causes eyes to tire. Normal blink rate for the eyes is 22 times each minute. When you concentrate on the computer screen, your blink rate drops to 7 times per minute causing the eyes to become dry and irritated. You should consciously blink your eyes to keep the eyeball wet and reduce dryness. Top of the screen should be tilted from 5 degrees forward to 15 degrees backward to help eliminate screen reflections. Tilting the top of the monitor slightly forward from the vertical will usually direct glare from overhead lighting down rather than into your eyes. Phone The telephone should be positioned on the right or left side of the work surface depending on the hand that is used to answer the phone. If the left hand normally picks up the phone while the right hand writes, the phone should be on the left side, and vice versa. Recommended maximum reach distance from the seated position should be no more than 16 inches. As you reach across your body, the outward reach distance drops dramatically to 6 inches. If the reach for the phone is across the body, it is an indicator that the phone may be on the wrong side as it causes twisting of the back. Phone should not be held between the shoulder and neck. This causes extreme stress to the neck and upper back. If the telephone use is less than 20 percent of the workday, holding the phone in the hand while talking is acceptable. If phone use is greater than 20 percent, a headset is

Re: CFForm madness. 0_0
Thats a good question :-) Some things in CF are available, yet not recommended by alot of users; cfform is one of them. In terms of validation and having more flexibility Id recommend using qForms API (www.pengoworks.com).

RE: CFForm madness. 0_0
Interesting I used to be of the same mind set, however after taking another look I think the cfform validation (not the built in cfserver validation) is quite useful. Why re-invent the wheel? Granted its not that flexible but when you quickly want to knock up a form with a few required fields it saves on development time.

Re: CFForm madness. 0_0
I think with a lot of features of CF such as cfform, cftable, and cfinsert they're handy until you want to do something a little different then you have to start from scratch, and rewrite what you've already got. Many developers eventually become frustrated with these tags and either use lower level tags such as cfquery or roll their own custom tag solutions, or use third party, customisable products. I think the number one reason people abandon cfform is that they need server side validation of the data. Fundamentally, server side validation is generally the primary focus. Client side should be an after thought -- it's a usability and maybe performance enhancement rather than an app security issue. I note CF provides some server side validation using form field name suffixes and I think supplementary fields. I don't know if anybody at uses this -- well, I don't, but I guess that's not really statistics. But I think if you're still getting good value out of these tags then go for it. Change comes from within. ;-) I think the primary reason they are provided in CFMX is because they have been provided in previous versions. One would like to hope that if MACR were adding form tags to CFMX from scratch they'd provide something more sophisticated.

Re: CFForm madness. 0_0
I suppose so. I have used it in the past quite a bit, but found it fell short in some areas or I had to combine it with additional JS. It just made more sense to me to use one or the other, and since the qForms API or even custom written stuff was more flexible I have just kind of stuck with that. Nothing against really, I just often need more than what it offers.

SiteMinder Service Status
It finally worked. Not on my system though. I copied the files to another system and it worked. I do see a list of services that are running on the server. However, what happenns if the SitMinder service crashes unexpectedly, and as you might know this happenns very often. Would tList.exe still list the service? My guess is it would, because the SiteMinder Authentication/Authorization service status would still be "started" even though the service has crashed. I need a script to monitor the siteMinder services and send alerts when the service is not responding. My current solution is to use the cfauthenticate coldfusion tag. The script calls the tag and returns a success or failure message. However, I've noticed that even after stopping the SiteMinder services(s), the status message does not change to "failed", that's because coldfusion caches the SiteMinder service cache. Flushing the cache would slow down the performance, but how else can I get the upto the minute status of the service?

Of course, it's not as simple as that. If you're running CF 5 or earlier, you have to make sure that this user account has appropriate permissions to touch all of the CF files and registry keys, as well as the CFML files you write. This is very nicely detailed here: http://www.defusion.com/articles/index.cfm?ArticleID=89 If you're running CFMX, it's considerably simpler in most cases, although I'd recommend that you read the above link anyway. This account doesn't need any access to the registry unless you're storing Client variables there. The service account needs the right to run as a service, and it needs modify rights to the CFusionMX directory and its subdirectories, and read rights to the CFML files that you want it to run. Since the goal in your case is to let CF get access to network resources, this account should probably be a domain account, or have access to those resources some other way.

RE: CFForm madness. 0_0
Yes well, from someone that isn't too in-depth with Javascript it is a bit Strange. I am ..worried over the reports I'm reading here that using CFFORM increases page rendering time by so much though. It means that it certainly won't be an option on a large site with multiple field-multiple page registration forms etc. Which is really odd, since the whole things seems to be fairly unchanged since the early days of CF.I thought that if there were performance issues, that they would have been addressed by now. -Gel -Original Message- From: Charlie Griefer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Angel: If you don't want to dive right into the Qforms API, i put a short 'tutorial' online to show some js form field validation (a couple that I don't believe can be accomplished thru cfform...but i could be wrong there).

RE: CFForm madness. 0_0
Well if the extra time used to generate the javascript used in cfform is huge performance hit then that would be a good reason not to use it. Of course we all realize we need server side validation but what's often overlooked is the amount of server processing that can be reduced as a result of using Javascript. Also in the absence of a good api like the ones provided by pengoworks, building your own involves the minor task of ensuring its cross browser compatible.

RE: CFForm madness. 0_0
What kind if validation would you do on the server side for a form? I think (probably quite reckless) that most people will have JS enabled etcI do see what you mean though - then again, if I was going 100% server side I wouldnt bother with Client Side...can be arsed doing it twice. -Original Message- From: Kola Oyedeji [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 July 2003 15:33 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CFForm madness. 0_0 Well if the extra time used to generate the javascript used in cfform is huge performance hit then that would be a good reason not to use it. Of course we all realize we need server side validation but what's often overlooked is the amount of server processing that can be reduced as a result of using Javascript. Also in the absence of a good api like the ones provided by pengoworks, building your own involves the minor task of ensuring its cross browser compatible.

Hello. I am uploading a file to the server and then reading its contents into a variable called docText. The file uploaded is a Word file but could be a text or html document as well.

When I output docText #docText# I get a few strange characters: ÐÏࡱá Is there anyway to output this text so that it is readable? I do not need to display it actually, I need to be able to parse it which seems to work just fine on MX, but I am on CF 5 and it does not. Any ideas?

I do both. If the JS is enabled then you do not waste system resources processing the page looking for validation errors, if JS is disbaled you are covered.

It allows you to quickly add js validation in addition to server side validation without getting bogged down in the details. Which for a high traffic site could make a significant differene.

Re: cffile (action=read)
Cool. I will hunt around for the regex or tags. I could actually care less about the formatting, I am just searching the text for merge fields (not standard word merge fields) just certain patterns. Thanks for the headsup on that.. if anyone knows off the top of their head where to find such regex or tags, let me know as I would be most appreciative. In the meantime, I will look. Thanks!

I agree, I think you should *always* do both (although I'm guilty of not doing this myself) - not just for security but for performance and the user experience, I think many people view client side javascript as optional.

To give you an idea how easy qForms is to implement, here's the entire block of code needed to reproduce your example template: Most of the code you can store in a snippet--since the odds are it doesn't change much (maybe the path to the qForms will from project to project, but on a single site, you always point to the same location so that you get the benefit of the code being cached.) Since qForms treats all forms alike--i.e. the getValue() method will return the value for a radio, checkbox, select, text, hidden, textbox, etc element, all you need to do is mark a field required and qForms handles the rest for you. -Dan ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=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

Re: CFForm madness. 0_0
I've used Qforms in a couple of projects -- really nice UI. It was complicated to get things up and running the first time just learning it -- but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. Writing custom validators I found a bit of a challenge, but certainly worth it. I took one application used by a university admissions dept for back-of-office workflow, just added qForms for better validation, and you'd have thought it was a brand new app by the reactions. It makes the app act a little more like client/server (eg VB) apps. Doing slick stuff like grabbing a query in the background and using it to repopulate a dropdown on the fly is pretty slick! OF course if memory serves, there were articles way back in CFDJ volume 1 or 2 or 3 (maybe by Steve Drucker) about how to do the same thing. But the qForms API gives you a consistent, prepackaged way to do it, includes a lot of validators, and has an extension method for writing your own validators. Good stuff.

'undoing' scientific format
Hello,
I'm displaying some moderately small decimals. I need to "undo" the scientific format
these decimals normally display in and print ALL the leading zeroes, followed by the
first two significant digits. Here are some examples:
0.001 --> 0.001
5.3E-4 --> 0.00053
6.428E-5 --> 0.64
2.0 E-6 --> 0.02
I've messed around with NumberFormat(), and some regular expressions, to no avail.
Here is the code I currently have. It's almost there but sometimes it picks up an
extra non-zero. And it would be nice to figure out some code that's more readable too:
0.#RepeatString( "0", Abs(Int(Log10(someValue))) - 1 )##REReplace( someValue,
"\.0*([0-9]{0,2}).*", "\1" )#
This results in the following:
0.001 --> 0.0001
5.3E-4 --> 0.00053
6.428E-5 --> 0.642
2.0E-6 --> 0.02
Don't ask how that RepeatString got in there.
Any ideas?

Check out the sample code I just sent to you (and to the list.) qForms
handles trapping all the errors for you at one time, plus if the browser and
form field element supports it, it'll use CSS to highlight the field that's
causing the problem.
Required fields on a page definitely need to be clearly marked, but there
are times when requiring a field may depend on the value of something else
in your field. For example, maybe you have a select box w/a bunch of options
and then one marked "other". If the "other" option is highlighted, then a
text field value is required. qForms has a mechanism for handling this with
something called dependencies. To write that logic, all I need to do is type
one line of code:
oForm.otherText.createDependencyTo("selectOption", "other");
That line of code says that if the "selectOption" element is equal to other,
than the "otherText" field is now required. If it's any other value, the
field is optional.
> I advocate server side validation as well. On the off chance that the
You absolutely need server-side validation. Server-side validation is the
only type of validation you have control over. There are too many ways to
bypass client-side validation.
However, this doesn't take away from the importance and value of client-side
validation. This is why I wrote qForms--to provide a powerful, flexible way
to write client-side validation that didn't take a lot of time to write.
Generally speaking, you should be able to add validation to a form in
minutes--and some even really complex validation at that.
Also, it's important to remember that qForms is much more than just a
client-side validation library--it's main function is to be a full API to
allow you to add the RIA environment to the classic browser.
qForms has all the tools you need to build really complex RIA type
applications--without needing to learn other skillsets or leverage plug-ins.

qForms (was Re: CFForm madness. 0_0)
Hi Dan:
I think my 'reluctance' to look at qForms is because...well, frankly I enjoy
writing js. I'm hesitant to give up that 'control' as it were.
I will look at it tho...if for no other reason that simple curiosity. I
think it's pretty amazing that, as I said below, I've never heard anything
but rave reviews of it. I don't believe I've ever heard anybody say they
don't like it...or even anybody who says they could take it or leave it.
Everybody I know who's used it absolutely LOVES it. So there's gotta be
something there :)
I appreciate your response. I'm responding publically only because there
may be others who feel the same way I do ("if i can write js, why do i need
qForms"), who may find this interesting.
thanks :)

DevNet Subscription Q's
Hey all... I'm currently researching the pros/cons of the DevNet (Professional) subscriptions. Wondered if any current subscribers can offer some feedback. I'm looking on MM's site at the comparison matrix...and the 'cost savings' table. MM shows the cost of items purchased individually, versus the total cost of the DevNet subscription (http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/subscriptions/value.html). Question #1: $479 for Development-Only Server Software? Where does $479 come in? I don't really see any value in including the server software as part of DevNet. Aren't developers versions free? Limited to one external IP and all that...but still...free? Question #2: DevNet Professional ofers 'two complimentary incidents per subscription term and access to an exclusive subscriber hotline providing priority access to Technical Support'. (http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/subscriptions/levelsfeatures.html#professi onal) Now, according to http://www.macromedia.com/support/programs/bronze.html, the Bronze support package (which we were considering purchasing for CF Server support) would cost $2000 for 5 tech support incidents. If we purchase 3 DevNet Professional subscriptions @ $599 each (upgrades from our current Studio MX licenses)...well, that gives us the DevNet content and 6 incidents...which pretty much makes it a no-brainer. Am I misunderstanding something...or is this in fact the same level of tech support/incidents offered in the various support packages? I'll be e-mailing MM directly asking them the same questions...but I thought getting some feedback from the community (and certainly from current subscribers) would be more valuable. I need to present my boss with a breakdown of advantages/disadvantages of DevNet Pro subscriptions, so I'd appreciate any feedback you're willing to throw my way.

RE: qForms (was Re: CFForm madness. 0_0)
Charlie,

I don't look at it is giving up control--I think that's the cool part about
it. The way I view it, is it gives a solid footprint in which to build off
of.
While for most people, qForms probably does everything they need it to
do--but obviously there are times when you want to do more. That's when
customizing the API (overriding default methods or simply adding new
methods) comes in handy.
Since you enjoy writing JS, you'll know doubt know that there are
frustrations with it to. For example, a client decided they want a select
element to handle certain functionality, so you wrote your JS around
interacting w/a select box.
Well, now they call you up and want it changed to a series of radio buttons.
Instead of this taking you like a minute to do, you've got to re-write your
JS to handling dealing w/radio buttons. Even if you already have code in
place to handle radio buttons, you're probably still going to have to make
changes.
However, w/qForms the odds are you don't have to make changes to your code
at all! You just need to change the elements. If you've stuck to using the
getValue() and setValue() methods for any of the custom hooks you've
written, your functions don't have to change. You use the same code.
I see this as a huge gain.

Glad to hear the word on the street is a good one. :) I'm actually working
on v2--which will be much more flexible and expandable.

I you'll find qForms doesn't diminish what you're doing w/JS, it just makes
what you're trying to do easier. I still write a ton of custom JS hooks into
my application, but the amount of code I write is considerable less now.
I can now focus on defining behavior and improving the UI, instead of
spending time re-creating code/procedures I've done in the past.

Re: qForms (was Re: CFForm madness. 0_0)
This describes my attitude as well, and to segue a bit, how do you feel about Flash/Actionscript? On the surface...I keep thinking to myself that I should love Actionscript, it's really all that Javascript wants to be, but I keep getting frustrated with it. I think it comes down to two problems as I see it. - The Flash Object Modelwtf is it? Try searching Google for "flash object model"...it doesn't exist, or if it does, it's very hidden. The glimpses that one can glean from the Flash editor don't seem to indicate there is a coherent object model. I could be way off though, as I haven't had a chance to get past the first couple chapters in my flash books yet. The lack of documentation anywhere is not encouraging though. - It's extremely difficult to debug...the Flash debugger is very hard to understand. I don't even know where to start. How about a line number where the problem is? A visual notification that there is a problem with the Actionscript would be nice...There is nothing near like Venkman, Mozilla's js debugger. Not to mention the DOM inspector. I don't mean this to be a negative commentary (there are a lot of good things about flash too) on Flash...I'm sincerely interested in what people think. Especially people who like javascript already. Back on topic...imo qForms, like Fusebox, makes more sense in a team environment. One guy hacking it, is probably going to be more efficient with his own stuff. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tuesday, July 22, 2003, 11:18:29 AM, you wrote: CG> Hi Dan: CG> I think my 'reluctance' to look at qForms is because...well, frankly I enjoy CG> writing js.
