RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
I use an applet from Infomentum called AppleFile 2.5 http://www.infomentum.com/products/download.asp This will allow you to upload multiple files, but you are limited by the number of files because the cf server times out. I have not figured out how to use the requesttimeout var to extend the timeout. But it works much better than html forms (but I have those avail also). -w At 06:49 PM 11/24/2003, you wrote: >50 mb?

RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
50 mb? Criminy. Supposedly, CF will release memory it doesn't need. Probably not immediately. All I can say for sure is its not unusual for CF to eat that much, by any stretch. Not what you want to hear, but if you are thinking of setting up and allowing Godzilla-size file uploads you really should have your server memory squared away.

RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
Just checked I was able to upload 50mb compressed zip. However, doing this caused jrun.exe to swell something fierce (about 100mb). At the moment I have barely enough memory for this, but am wondering if jrun.exe will relinquish this memory, hold onto it for reallocation of subsequent steps, or just keep ballooning. Any thoughts? -Original Message- From: Matt Robertson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 4:54 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files Maybe it won't work for you on this job, but CF has a way to handle this in every respect except the sheer size of the job:: Use CFFILE as usual and only accept the MIME type application/x-zip-compressed.

RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
say it is 100mb winzip wont compress it that much then u need to take in consideration the connection speeds. for example, i have i have a 512 cable line...download but only like 124 upload, so if lets say the zip was 75 mb it would take a bout 45 minutes to upload, ouch if u do it this way u will need to use a db that supports transaction and make sure u REALLY use them. also another thing i have noticed is that some ppl who dont know what the are doing with pix save them as progressive jpgs which really mess things up. or they save them in photoshop which also is a disaster.. if u do it the way u say u will also have to make some scripts to dynamically make the upload foldersand set read, & write permissions. i have no idea how to do that. you should maybe look at the MM site and the flash remoting tuts, maybe something there > I hear you, I do have my own server with anti-virus installed which I > hope would catch viruses.

RE: Heartbeat with Flash?
Here's what I'd do. make a new movie. set the frame rate to 1 (1 frame per
second). in frame 30, add a single action:
loadVariables("yourUrlToCheck", 1);
export the movie.
put that in a page, and every 30 seconds, it'll hit whatever URL you
specify. The output from the page should be a valid query string (not
includeing the question mark). The empty string is valid. The help that
comes with Flash is generally pretty good, I thought. Pretty mcuh all I
use.
cheers,
banreyb

It'd be a snap with flash, using either remoting or just a loadVariables
call. I know there was a limitation with flash 5 where you couldn't
make a
movie smaller than 18x18 though. don't know if that's still in place

Subject: Heartbeat with Flash?
Hi All,
Just tried to send this message out a few moments ago and it seemed to
hang. My apologies in advance if it turns into a double post...
I currently have an application that has a built in "heartbeat"... A 1x1
pixel iframe that refreshes itself every 30 seconds.
This heartbeat updates the database and lets me know that a user is
still online. Everything works great except for the fact that MSIE
browsers make a "click" sound every time the refresh takes place. It's
very annoying.
I thought that perhaps I could create a 1x1 pixel flash movie to
accomplish the same thing, only without the annoying click.
Any ideas as to how difficult this would be to implement?
Any other ideas are also more than welcome...

RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
There are a number of Java multi-file uploaders you may want to look at,
e.g. http://www.radinks.com/upload/index.php?gg2 (this is just the first I
found). One advantage with one at a time is it may be easier to collect all
the details about the image at the same time. You'd probably need this
screen with editing images and details anyway, right?
BTW I run a CF-based hiking site too: http://www.tramper.co.nz/ . Doesn't
have individual user image galleries yet, but I'm planning on adding that
soon.
> forcing users to zip their pictures into a single archive,
This might be nice as an option, but I think you should let users upload one
at a time the old fashioned way as well. The biggest problem might be your
page timing out. In my experience, CF doesn't deal with slow uploads all
that well.

you may wanna concider letting them upload say 5 at a time and having 5
table fields for images in your db.
then just add 5 file fields to the form with names like pic1, pic2,
pic3,
pic4, pic5. then on the action page u need the upload file code for each
field but you really need to check each field to make sure it has
something in it first. you can do this with a simple if statement. then
to
you need to set the serverfile to a unique name cause u can only have 1

RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
Have a look at how they do it with this product. You can download and run it
for free
http://www.web-instan.com/web-instan/overview/2.html
I've got a friend doing 10 weeks overseas (on a holiday - some people have
all the luck :-) and I just loaded this onto our site so he can upload his
digi cam pics to our server from where he is at up to 20 at a time.

RE: Advise about how to upload multiple files
If you're going to use HTML, you're stuck with a bunch of single file fields, and the need to go browse for each individual picture. Probably a better way to go it to upload the pics one at a time, and then just loop through the upload form/process page until the user says "that's enough". You might be able to find some kind of plugin that'll let you browse for more than one picture at a time and upload them, but I woudn't hold my breath. cheers, barneyb _ From: John Munyan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 3:10 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Advise about how to upload multiple files I am wanting to allow users to upload files to my website to construct their own image galleries of hikes they have done.

RE: CVS
I think you mean "working directory" not "repository". We have a single staging working directory on our staging server, and one or more working directories on our dev server. We don't do per-developer directories, because of the setup headaches (dsns, dns, mappings, etc). The production server is updated via rsync from the staging server, so it can never contain anything that isn't on the staging server. rsync also has the benefit of being able to natively strip out any CVS garbage on the fly, so the code goes up to the production machines without any of the CVS directories and such. cheers, barneyb _ From: Daryl Walsh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 1:39 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: CVS when setting up cvs, do people generally have one cvs repository per 'version', i.e., development server = 1 cvs version. staging server = another and the live web site = a third? _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: CVS
CVS is only used for development. Staging and production should have their own copies of the real files, not a CVS repo. You can use CVS to export from a CVS repo to staging or production. To keep track of the individual versions, i.e., what's in development and what's in production, take a look at branching.

RE: preventing back button of browser
Technically there really isn't anyway to prevent a back button from being clicked... BUT... you can use _javascript_'s location.replace() function to overwrite the current page location in your browser. Essentially what you'll end up with is a page that has no history so the back button won't be available. -Novak -Original Message- From: Ketan Patel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 1:31 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: preventing back button of browser hi all, does anybody know a good way of preventing back button of browser. thanks, ketan _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Re: ListFind() weirdness
ListFind(list, value [, delimiters ]) The third argument of ListFind is not starting position but rather it is the lists delimiter.

RE: ListFind() weirdness
There is nothing wrong with this. ListFind(list, value [, delimiters ]) The first instance. No delimiter is specified so comma would be default. Since your value is equal to the search string returns index 1. The second instance your delimiter is 1, since your value matches your search string and no 1 is in your value it returns 1. The third instance is the same as above. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Jar files not being read
I just added a JAR to my app's WEB-INF/lib directory and it's behaving very strangely. I can happily instantiate and use the classes from my CF code. I can happily instantiate and use the classes from a custom Java class that is compiled and run with the JAR on the classpath. However, running that custom Java class from CF causes NoClassDefFoundErrors to be thrown, referencing the classes in the JAR. There are several other JARs in the same directory, and I've had no problems at all using their classes directly from CF and/or through custom Java classes from CF. I checked permissions and ownership, and all were as they should be. I also tried unpackaging the JAR and rebuilding it, and that didn't help either. Anyone had anything similar happen to them?

RE: Clearing Trusted Cache in CF 5
Trusted cache will prevent ColdFusion (5 or MX) from checking the disk for the file timestamp. This can have a medium to large-ish performance impact. Huge if your templates are mounted across the network on a file server. You can switch this setting on/off without restarting the server, so you can update a template, flip the switch off, request that page to clear the cache, and then flip the switch on again. All without restarting. This is by design. If you have a large number of pages that you are updating, a restart would probably be better, or (as Jon Block mentioned) a regression script which hits every page in your app (using cfhttp). Macromedia recommends that all performance sensitive sites turn trusted cache on. -- Tom Jordahl Macromedia Server Development -Original Message- From: Doug White [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 21, 2003 9:27 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Clearing Trusted Cache in CF 5 Only if your site has very rare changes.

RE: Ordering a QofQ
This probably has to do with the data type of the field that you're working with. For instance, if price is a text field because you're storing $123.43 instead of a numeric field and just storing 123.43 it would sort alphabetically instead of numerically. You could probably convert the field value to a numeric value in your first query using CAST or INT and that would return it as numeric. Then your sort should work. It's been a while since I've done that, but I think it would work.

Re: CF - post to database question
Both options are possible, although the e-mail option would have more possible points of failure (i.e. mail not deliverednot read properlyforgot the attachement etc.) The only really tough part here is extracting the data from the file. There are many customs tags to extract data from Excel files, so have a look at the MM Exchange. Grabbing data out of PROPERLY formatted flat file (CSV...tab delimited etc.) is very easy (but if the formatting is off you're up the creek). You simply use CFFILE to read the file in question. That is read into a variable which you then loop through to parse out the records. Remember that the first row is usually the column names...other than that pay special attention to the row delimiters and the column delimiters (these will allow you to seperate out each record and then each field in that record). On each pass of the loop you insert your data. HTH Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm. VP & Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. t. 250.920.8830 e.
