RE: cflogin vs. GetAuthUser
Andrew, I also figured out a way to use cflogin with Mach-II. The conceptual breakthru for me was realizing that cflogin could be used in multiple places, sometimes w/o cfloginuser. What I've done is place a cflogin in preEvent in my plugin. If a user is not logged in, cflogin aborts the current event and announces a login event (which forces display of the login page). When the login page is submitted, a validate function in a login bean is invoked. If the user is validated, another cflogin calls cfloginuser. This seems pretty clean and doesn't bend the framework, so I'm happy with it, at least for now. Thanks for your suggestions. Collectively, everyone's contributions got me thinking in the right direction.

I actually use the check just before the hanlde request in the mach-II framework. This was my only option to handle login using my setup, and maybe a lack of knowing how the plugin option actually works. But you don't need to have cflogin to use cfloginuser, but it helps as Dave Watts explained. In my case I handle my own tracking and just use the GetAuthUser to test a usersrights.

If cflogin is setting its own session variables (which I guess I could have checked myself), then I can see why it doesn't know about a user logged in by an independent cfloginuser. So then my question is, why do I need cflogin? cfloginuser used by itself will log in a user. GetAuthUser will test if a user is logged in. Yes I've read the CF docs and see their example of using cflogin and cfloginuse. But, a) I don't like loading up my application.cfm with a lot of code, and b) I'm using Mach-II and want to test for user authentication in a preEvent plugin, not in application.cfm. I suppose that using cfloginuser independent of cflogin, while working today, runs the risk of breaking in a future release, but I'd like to hear from someone familiar with the internals to know if this is a safe (undocumented) practice (similar perhaps to the unnamed scope in CFCs).

GetAuthUser() simply returns the name of the user you supplied in the cfloginuser tag.I use this after my cflogin pair to insure that a user really got logged in.If the user didn't get logged in then I deal with it there.More specifically, I use cflogin to attempt to login a user when they haven't logged in yet.The code within the tag will take their user information and validate it aginst a list of valid users and if they are found then execute the cfloginuser tag to do the actual login.Once the tag ends I make a call to GetAuthUser() to validate that I have a user name and continue to let the page load, otherwise I reprompt the user for their information.

I understand that cflogin is only executed if there is no logged-in user. If there is no logged-in user, should GetAuthUser return an empty string? Conversely, if GetAuthUser contains a non-null value, does that mean cflogin should not get executed? I'm asking because I'm encountering a situation where GetAuthUser is returning a valid user, yet cflogin is still getting executed. Note that I am invoking cfloginuser outside of the cflogin tag.

The search function opens a page with various data about the PDF file and also opens the PDF file itself. Currently the application uses cfexecute and pdftotext.exe, and adds the text that is thus extracted from the PDF file into the Verity index along with all the user-added data. This way, the extracted PDF string data is associated directly with the user-added data and can be used the way I want it. However, we're moving the whole application to a hosted, shared server, and cannot run cfexecute there.

The tables you're seeing under the datasource you've created, CD_webstore, are actually tables in the master database. When you set up your datasource in CF Admin you need to specify the database in addition to the server. My guess is that the database has been left blank in which case the database defaults to whatever is set as the default database on SQL Server; probably this is the master database.

My perferance would be to use CFscript synatx, since it will force you to use the correct syntax-- cfscript cftext=cfoutput cfset var=#evaluate(myvar)# cfoutput; // yes, you will need to double pound, double quote and double every time you need a variable or a tag /cfscript CFfile action="" file=e:\_promotrials\#trialname#\trial_include.cfm output=#cftext# 2) test and use Can CFFILE be used to write and output a cf file (.cfm) not a text (. txt) file? How would I work this? I have this down: CFfile action="" file=e:\_promotrials\#trialname#\trial_include.cfm output= It crashes when I insert info from the .cfm file that includes quotes. Roberto O.

New onTap Mailing List
Hi All, Mike Dinowitz has been gracious enough to offer the House of Fusion as a place to host the onTap framework mailing list. Thanks Mike! :) I'm planning to update my blog so that it will send most of my blog entries to the list. It's all about letting everybody get the info in the format they want. :) Once I'm done with the login utility I'm working on now I think I'm going to work on a forum utility I can integrate on the site and hopefully also synchronize the forum with the mailing list. This way if you want to just subscribe to the list you can do that, if you want to subscribe just to the forum you can do that too, and in either case not have to worry about missing content or conversation in the alternate medium. To subscribe now, visit HoF at: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm/method=subscribeforum id=42 Thanks, s. isaac dealey 214-823-9345 team macromedia volunteerhttp://www.macromedia.com/go/team chief architect, tapestry cmshttp://products.turnkey.to onTap is open sourcehttp://www.turnkey.to/ontap [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: CMS Solutions
I'd imagine something like an index.htm with a meta-redirect tag in it. Tapestry has the potential to do that, but nothing's been implemented yet. I did implement a domain-management system tho, which allows you to associate a domain (including the aname) with a specific page in your site(s). My site is done that way. http://www.turnkey.to goes to the home page and http://products.turnkey.to goes to the products page. I use a wild-card record for dns so that any aname that's not otherwise assigned forwards to the site's root directory, which allows me to assign anything I want in the CMS without having to make any changes on the dns server.

Re: CMS Solutions (Friendly URL's)
Take a look at this. index.cfm?ACTION=""> It's awful.I need a way to shorten this. The ACTION variable handles what application to access, The PERFORM varaibles handles the particular Use Case or Method of the a particular application I store the full navigation structure in the application scope as an array of structures so the Pindex and the GIndex points to the different Nodes in the navigation packet.

Just out of curiosity, but why is the URL awful? Sure, it's not something you can memorize, but outside of that, who cares how crazy it looks.

Re:CMS Solutions
My own system, CMPro, does this.You can specify any sort of file name you want and the system will use that when either displaying the page or when publishing a static version.We released Version 3 today and should have the demo up by tomorrow at the latest. Works *fantastically*, when done right, to spike a page to the top of search results.I've got customers hitting the top of Google in less than 30 days. --Matt Robertson-- MSB Designs, Inc.

RE: CMS Solutions (Friendly URL's)
It's not the friendliness to users which is significant but rather the friendliness to search engines coupled with how they weight various aspects of a given resource on the web. Short URLs are given a much higher weight than long(er) URLs, (presuming the content is otherwise the same). Ditto again for the size of the query string on the URL. And relevancy of the name of the file in the URL, if any, also is given high weight *if* that also corresponds to in-document context. This is why the so-called 'search engine safe URLs don't really do much for most sites if all they do is substitute slashes for ampersands and equals signs; most search engines will start decrementing relevancy weight once the URL is more than 2-3 levels deep. One needs short relevant file names in a short shallow URL corresponding to actual content in the document to make the biggest impact in the search engine rankings. -Original Message- From: Raymond Camden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2003 4:33 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CMS Solutions (Friendly URL's) Just out of curiosity, but why is the URL awful?

RE: CMS Solutions (Friendly URL's)
This is now moving into an off-topic realm, and maybe it is time to move it to cf-community, but I have to wonder why search engine makers said A long URL isn't good.

Re: CMS Solutions (Friendly URL's)
Though this is true and needs to be addressed when building a site, you should always keep a few things in mind, 1) Quality of content on your site (clear content for actual human eyes who are reading).This should outweigh anything else on your website. 2) Though there are many things that are relevant to search engines, they all have various weights and some things are more important than others. More effort should be put on keyworded content and relavant keywords than on how many levels a page goes deep ... I have seen too many website owners who get hung up on the statements below that they loose sight of what their webpage is all about. If you can accomplish all aspects of quality content, relative keywords and search engine friendly keywords great ... but if you can't pick away at whats important first.. and do your best at whats left over.

This is relative to CF in that we can design dynamic pages to have keyword-laden, purely static-appearing names that, coupled to content and intelligent page title choice, seem to be thehot ticket. Almost as soon as I started using fake static page names, mid-November) the results have been stunning.Very often #1 rankings for targeted keyword combos.
