Apache, mod_deflate and coldfusion
Hi, I am experimenting a bit with mod_deflate for enabling http1.1 compression of html and text (and possibly css and _javascript_). The server is running Apache 2 and ColdFusion Enterprise. It seems like the compression works fine for static pages, but not for anything that is rendered through coldfusion... Any tips? I guess this has something to do with how Jrun handles the work etc... ? /H. - Hugo AhleniusE-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Project Officer Phone:+46 8 230460 UNEP GRID-ArendalFax:+46 8 230441 Stockholm OfficeMobile:+46 733 467111 WWW: http://www.grida.no - ### This message has been scanned by F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange.

Caching problem?
Hi all, We're in the process of developing a new site which is very similar to a previous site we've built, so we copied the webroot and customtags to new folders and renamed the customtags (and references to them within the code). Now we've mapped the dev domain name to the webroot, so we have kn-dev.open.ac.uk and krn-dev.open.ac.uk. We seem to be getting a problem where if we restart the server and visit kn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm and then go to the page krn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm the KRN version picks up the header file from KN, similarly if we go to krn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm first and then kn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm the KN version picks up the KRN version. (We've updated the KRN header file with a different design to KN). We've tried a number of things including; - adding a cfheader no-cache to stop the client caching the page - rebooting the server - clearing the compiled java classes - adding cfcache action="" to each index page However none of these seem to be working. So does anyone have any other suggestions as to what we could try? Unfortunately it's all behind a firewall so you won't be able to view the problem - but this is not an april fool!! ;-) TIA Alex [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

SOT: RIA performance was Flex is out
A few of us have been critical of the implications of poorly-performing RIAs in general and the available Flex examples in particular. I am particularly disappointed in theperformance of The Flex Code Explorer showcase app: http://macromedia.com/software/flex/?promoid=home_prod_flex_111703# Click Flex Code Explorer Link. This takes about 7 seconds to load on my DSL link, then about 7 seconds to render. Once that is done we (assumedly) are ready for a Rich Internet Application experience. On the left of the screen is a (logical) frame containing a familiar tree menu to navigate the rest of the application. While, functional, it is one of the slowest tree menus, I've seen. To contrast this RIA experience, I brought up the CFMX Administrator and the CFMX Docs -- it includes a PIA version of a tree menu. It is interesting to use these 2 (the RIA and the PIA) side by side -- the PIA wins hands down in speed and crispness and, yes Richness of the user experience, Why is this so -- the RIA system (Flex and Flash) have been designed to address this specific component of a web application? Why is the PIA useful and the RIA, well... let's just say that I would be embarrassed to show it to a client. I am all for RIAs -- they will be the norm in the long run.But we've got a ways to go...

Thanks, we're not using CF mappings, and we're not using application or session scope - we're using the request scope and client vars. I;ve checked that the Application.cfm has a different app name - although the client variable store datasource is the same, but I can't see why this would make any difference. We've got the file structure as follows: D:\wwwroot\ - this is for kn-dev.open.ac.uk D:\wwwroot\workspace\krn\ for krn-dev.open.ac.uk And the KRN site has it's own Application.cfm but the krn-dev.open.ac.uk is picking up the d:\wwwroot\index.cfm if the kn-dev.open.ac.uk has been viewed first.

Hi all, We're in the process of developing a new site which is very similar to a previous site we've built, so we copied the webroot and customtags to new folders and renamed the customtags (and references to them within the code). Now we've mapped the dev domain name to the webroot, so we have kn-dev.open.ac.uk and krn-dev.open.ac.uk. We seem to be getting a problem where if we restart the server and visit kn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm and then go to the page krn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm the KRN version picks up the header file from KN, similarly if we go to krn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm first and then kn-dev.open.ac.uk/index.cfm the KN version picks up the KRN version. (We've updated the KRN header file with a different design to KN). We've tried a number of things including; - adding a cfheader no-cache to stop the client caching the page - rebooting the server - clearing the compiled java classes - adding cfcache action="" to each index page However none of these seem to be working.

Re: Embedding an image in cfmail
John: You're right for the short answer. Casey: The simple technical answer turns out to be a hotly debated topic near and dear to the viewing public's heart. At one place I worked for, we attempted to build an Interactive Online Email campaign featuring HTML emails and landing pages containing a short video and Flash slides. In practice, delivering consistant HTML email messages is messy at best when dealing with quirks of emails programs out there. For example in Outlook 2003 images using this notation are blocked by the idefault/i security setting (this can be changed by the user). In the previous version this was allowed. Each of the different email programs out there-- Yahoo, Hotmail, Outlook Express, Outlook, Lotus Notes and all of the others have their own way of how they will render HTML email-- some allow muti-part messaging others strip it out. And don't forget that many out there have email filters that will strip out everything from multi-part messages to images tags linked to the outside. Add to this that many get very prickly about the email they recieve... spam has had such an impact on people's feelings on this topic. But on the other hand, I have seen surveys that suggest the click through rate of HTML email is higher than the response rate on direct mail -- so we will continue to see marketers blindly send out direct emails to purchased lists. (HTML email also allows the marketer to determine who opened by the email as well providing yet another metric.) In practice, I've done the following with my clients for opt in lists. 1) Allow the customer to determine how they want their email sent. Provide choices for HTML email and plain text email -- and respect their choices. 2) Don't send out anything like Flash or Windows Media files inside of the email -- that's even less likely than pictures to be displayed on email. 3) Provide a way in HTML emails for the user to go to a webpage containing the same information -- allowing the user to go to the message in case HTML is displayed as plain text. I've referenced an article below that talks about this topic in depth. Take a look at http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssemail/ and the associated discussion about embedding HTML inside of emails and deadling with the myrid of email clients out there.

You should be able to tell your web server (IIS?) to check for the existence of JSP files before sending them to the application server, and then specify a CFM template as your 404 handler. The same can be done for CFM modules as well, so you don't have to specify a custom 404 handler in CF Admin just for CFM pages. ~ Ubqtous ~ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: CFFile Problem
Firstly, are you using nameConflict=Overwrite? You'll need this to overwrite any existing file of the same name. If you already are then you might want to check whether the error is being caused by virus checker locking the existing uploaded file while it checks for viruses, and thus preventing CF from overwriting it with the newly uploaded one. I came accross this on a server recently when trying to overwrite files which had recently been created dynamically. I wasn't using CFfile, but the symptoms sound pretty similar. I think I got round it by renaming the target file before uploading the new one, then deleting the renamed one.

Re: Javascript Remoting (js web service accessing stuff)
I have been playing with Rob Rohan's Neuromancer system since he first posted several weeks ago. Rob's system is much more than a chat app -- though a chat really shows it off. I wanted to do some PIA (Robs acronym for Poor Internet/Interface Application) apps where data exchange speed between the host and client is very important. To do this I wrote some CFCs to handle the server-side, the web service,and to implement a function that we call Thin Arrays. The Thin Array functions take a CFquery or CFarray and converts it into a streamlined packet that defines the data and structure in a single string. This Thin Array contains very little non-data overhead and can be sent to the client, quickly with minimal bandwidth usage (and very few processing cycles to serialize/de-serialize at either end) . Rob wrote the complementary js routines at the client incorporated them into Neuromancer. -- they are lean and wicked-fast. What Rob does in effect, is retrieve and replicate the equivalent of the server-side query or arrayon the client.Then he provides a set of functions to manipulate the client copy of the data structure. Rob uses the Thin Array format to retrieve the chat messages(a db query on the server) to his chat program on the client... yes his chat logs every message to a database on the host. To illustrate other uses of Robs system and Thin Arrays, I have written 2 programs to illustrate how (part of) a drill down might look: 1) EmployeeDrillDownPreload.cfm -- When the initial page is downloaded it includes a table that displays the first 5 records of n records in the query. When the page initially loads, it requests the entire query (15 rows in our example) and builds the equivalent structure on the client.The user can next/prev page thru these records 5 at a time without any interaction with the host. 2) EmployeeDrillDownOnDemand.cfm -- Same as above except only the 1st 5 records are retrieved on page load. Each next/prev request retrieves the desired set of 5 records from the server. This shows how fast Robs system can consume a web service and how efficiently thin arrays can be used to exchange data. The meagre documentation on thin arraysis included as comments in the cfBAM,cfc-- available for download at Robs site. http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/ The 2 apps above are also available for download -- or if you'd just like to see PIAs in action go to the following links: Note: both of these apps have an initial 2-second delay to cover connection to, and learning of, the remote web service -- I didn't have a js Loading... routine handy. So, after the page loads, wait a few seconds until a value appears in the elapsed time box. http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/datatest/ EmployeeDrillDownPreload.cfm and http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/datatest/ EmployeeDrillDownOnDemand.cfm You might want to bring these 2 apps up side-by-side for camparison. And be sure to visit Rob's PIA chat at: http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/chatdemo2.cfm I hope you like what you see -- we are quite happy withit! BTW, the Employees database is the cfSnippets db that comes with CFMX. So if you installed the CFMX examples you can run these apps without change For the techies out there, Rob has added a new feature called synch/asynch.This allows the client-side app to tradeoff performance against losing some data packets sent from the host*.Things like the drill downs will likely operate synchmode so no data packets are lost and, because these are UI event driven, there will be no noticeable affect on client performance. * Actually, only packets in transit are lost --the original data remains intact on the host(and client) for retransmission or synchronization. There is a class of apps, however, likes chats, status monitors, etc, where the data is constantly updated and a few lost data packets are tolerable -- the next data update will replace them anyway.So Neuromancer allows you to run this portion of your app with separate UI threads and data exchange threads -- the UI doesn't need to wait for the data exchange and vise versa.This provides a significant improvement in performance and a much crisper feel for the UI, with a tolerable loss of a few data packets, The synch/asynch feature allows you, the developer, to optimize the performance of the UI (and data exchange) according to the needs of each specfic app. The entire package is free, open source and available for download at: Enjoy!

Re: CFFile Problem
Firstly, are you using nameConflict=Overwrite? You'll need this to overwrite any existing file of the same name. Yes If you already are then you might want to check whether the error is being caused by virus checker locking the existing uploaded file while it checks for viruses, and thus preventing CF from overwriting it with the newly uploaded one. Don't think that's the issue here, since I get the error 100% of the time, even with a new file. Thanks for the idea though! Interestingly enough, if I change the CFFile tag to include the mime types I accept, the error changes to: 'The MIME type of the uploaded file (image/gif) was not accepted by the server' even though this is a mime type in the accepted list. If I leave the mime types out, I just get the access denied error. Again, the same code on the other page works fine, it uploads a gif image without issue.

Re: CFINVOKE vs CreateObject - Flogging OOP!
Agreed...maybe it will take some getting used to, but I'm aware of what you correctly point out as an example of flexibility. Even if one allows CFMX leeway on this issue (I can Most OO languages allow the use of static classes, don't they? In those cases, you're not interested in creating instances of objects, you simply have an object that contains a bunch of useful, related methods. As for why you'd use static CFCs instead of UDFs, I'd suggest the facts that they generate documentation and can be used easily within Dreamweaver MX as two reasons. I prefer a single, architecturally solid construct over multiple ways to do things that violate the very benefits that they are supposed to bring. I prefer to use languages that let me do what I want to do, rather than ones that tell me what I should do. Ease of use and flexibility are closely related. Granted, I wouldn't mind at all if CFMX provided a CFCONSTRUCTOR tag like BlueDragon does, but if I want to write OO code, I'll use an OO language. If I want to be able to mix procedural and OO code to my liking, I'll use CF.

Re: JRun has closed connection
We have downloaded the update and when installing we request that it do a full install and entered the key. As result we are still getting the same problem. What I do not understand is that I am not on the server and I can access the pages but no other user can! What am I doing wrong? Yes that could have a profound effect, under single IP the server is in development mode and can only be accessed from itself.Usually as localhost and/or 127.0.0.1, but if you set up a website in your local IIS (or other web server I presume) you may also access it under that name from the local box. No body else can though.That is the limitation of the free development version of the software, if it wasn't restricted who would bother to pay for it for production purposes. The gotcha that exists is the for the first 30 days it runs in Trial version as a full production server and during this initial period of time other users can access the box.

RE: Javascript Remoting (js web service accessing stuff)
Dick or Rob, Does the PIA take inconsideration if the web service is down/network problems?? Is there a timeout time/message if that occurs? TIA, Patrick Whittingham United Space Alliance AES - Data Warehouse -Original Message- From: Dick Applebaum [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 01, 2004 11:34 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: _javascript_ Remoting (js web service accessing stuff) I have been playing with Rob Rohan's Neuromancer system since he first posted several weeks ago. Rob's system is much more than a chat app -- though a chat really shows it off. I wanted to do some PIA (Robs acronym for Poor Internet/Interface Application) apps where data exchange speed between the host and client is very important. To do this I wrote some CFCs to handle the server-side, the web service,and to implement a function that we call Thin Arrays. The Thin Array functions take a CFquery or CFarray and converts it into a streamlined packet that defines the data and structure in a single string. This Thin Array contains very little non-data overhead and can be sent to the client, quickly with minimal bandwidth usage (and very few processing cycles to serialize/de-serialize at either end) . Rob wrote the complementary js routines at the client incorporated them into Neuromancer. -- they are lean and wicked-fast. What Rob does in effect, is retrieve and replicate the equivalent of the server-side query or arrayon the client.Then he provides a set of functions to manipulate the client copy of the data structure. Rob uses the Thin Array format to retrieve the chat messages(a db query on the server) to his chat program on the client... yes his chat logs every message to a database on the host. To illustrate other uses of Robs system and Thin Arrays, I have written 2 programs to illustrate how (part of) a drill down might look: 1) EmployeeDrillDownPreload.cfm -- When the initial page is downloaded it includes a table that displays the first 5 records of n records in the query. When the page initially loads, it requests the entire query (15 rows in our example) and builds the equivalent structure on the client.The user can next/prev page thru these records 5 at a time without any interaction with the host. 2) EmployeeDrillDownOnDemand.cfm -- Same as above except only the 1st 5 records are retrieved on page load. Each next/prev request retrieves the desired set of 5 records from the server. This shows how fast Robs system can consume a web service and how efficiently thin arrays can be used to exchange data. The meagre documentation on thin arraysis included as comments in the cfBAM,cfc-- available for download at Robs site. http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/ The 2 apps above are also available for download -- or if you'd just like to see PIAs in action go to the following links: Note: both of these apps have an initial 2-second delay to cover connection to, and learning of, the remote web service -- I didn't have a js Loading... routine handy. So, after the page loads, wait a few seconds until a value appears in the elapsed time box. http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/datatest/ EmployeeDrillDownPreload.cfm and http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/datatest/ EmployeeDrillDownOnDemand.cfm You might want to bring these 2 apps up side-by-side for camparison. And be sure to visit Rob's PIA chat at: http://www.rohanclan.com/products/neuromancer/chatdemo2.cfm I hope you like what you see -- we are quite happy withit! BTW, the Employees database is the cfSnippets db that comes with CFMX. So if you installed the CFMX examples you can run these apps without change For the techies out there, Rob has added a new feature called synch/asynch.This allows the client-side app to tradeoff performance against losing some data packets sent from the host*.Things like the drill downs will likely operate synchmode so no data packets are lost and, because these are UI event driven, there will be no noticeable affect on client performance. * Actually, only packets in transit are lost --the original data remains intact on the host(and client) for retransmission or synchronization. There is a class of apps, however, likes chats, status monitors, etc, where the data is constantly updated and a few lost data packets are tolerable -- the next data update will replace them anyway.So Neuromancer allows you to run this portion of your app with separate UI threads and data exchange threads -- the UI doesn't need to wait for the data exchange and vise versa.This provides a significant improvement in performance and a much crisper feel for the UI, with a tolerable loss of a few data packets, The synch/asynch feature allows you, the developer, to optimize the performance of the UI (and data exchange) according to the needs of each specfic app. The entire package is free, open source and available for download at: Enjoy!

CF5 Services running as user - Now service won't start

I set up the the CF Application Service, CF Executive Service and CF RDS Service to all run under a local user account.That user account has full control in the C:\cfusion folder where CF is installed.It also has full access to the webroot folder on a different drive.For some reason though, when I stopped and restarted the services, the CF Executive is the only one that would restart sucessfully.The CF App Service and the RDS Service give the following error: Could not start the Cold Fusion Application Service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error. If the problem persists, contact your System Administrator. Did I do something wrong with the permissions?Does CF5 have some other setup that needs to take place?Any advice or thoughts would be EXTREMELY helpful.

Is there a way to programmatically insert a row into a CF recordset so that it comes back as the first record?

RE: JRun has closed connection
Hi John,
The jrun closed connection error is not cut and dry, it can be caused by a
number of things. I just finished writing a technote about this topic, here
is the preliminary text that will probably change through the edit cycle:
The JRun Closed Connection error is caused by an issue occurring in the
JVM which in turn causes the JVM to close the socket that is open from the
external webserver connector, such as IIS, Apache, or iPlanet, to JRun. The
JVM problem can occur due to several different issues, such as:
1. outOfMemory or the JVM approaches the max heap
2. Native code in a CFX or COM objects causes an error in the JVM
The memory condition can also occur due to several different issues, most
commonly:
1. If debugging is left on in production. Make sure you have it turned
completely off on production servers.
2. Large resultsets are returned from the database taking up a
significant amount of memory. Reduce the size of database results you are
returning.
This technote will provide you with steps for debugging the root cause.
1. In The ColdFusion Administrator\Server Settings\Settings Page turn
on timeout requests and set the value to 30 seconds
2. In The ColdFusion Administrator\Debugging Logging\Logging Settings
turn on log slow running pages and set the value to 30 seconds
3. Upgrade your jvm to the latest 1.4.2_04 jdk
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html. When you install, it will
install to your c drive by default. For example.
C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03
In the ColdFusion Administrator-- JVM Settings page point the jvm in the CF
Admin to this path.
4. Enable JRun Metrics in
{cfusion}/runtime/servers/default/SERVER-INF/jrun.xml:
Make a backup of {cfusion}/runtime/servers/default/SERVER-INF/jrun.xml
Uncomment the entry
service class=jrunx.metrics.MetricsService name=MetricsService
attribute name=bindToJNDItrue/attribute
/service
Inside of service class=jrunx.logger.LoggerService name=LoggerService
modify
attribute name=metricsEnabledtrue/attribute
attribute name=metricsLogFrequency5/attribute
5. Enable verbose Garbage Collection in the ColdFusion
Administrator\Server Settings\Java and JVM\JVM Arguments by adding the
following arguments:
-XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC
6. Stop ColdFusion
7. Delete all the logs in {cfusion}/logs and {cfusion}/runtime/logs
8.Start ColdFusion so we can produce a stack trace, for example as per
this article:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18339.htm
http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18339.htm
>From the cmd c:\CFusionMX\bin\ cfstart out.txt
9.Run cfstat so we can see the requests:
>From the cmd c:\CFusionMX\bin\ cfstat 5 c:\cfusionmx\logs\cfstat.out
10.When the site becomes unresponsive do a stack trace, examine the stack
trace, cfstat and log files or contact Technical Support with these files.
I would practice running a stack trace (set focus to the DOS window and
press Ctrl-Break) and then look at the out.txt for the text Full Thread
Dump, it will be after all of the services starting info. If it's not there
then it didn't work.

jsessionID... ?
Hello everyone... Does anyone know just how long the JSessionID gets? I see that it jumps in length a digit or two. Also it's my understanding that the Jsession is always a unique number, is this right? I know the CF session ID is not unique, but can it be made to be unique or would it be better to use the jsessionID? I'm not sure I understand the advantages of either one. I have read the info on MM site but could not really find any info that state why one is better than the other beside security and unique IDs.

Re: Dynamic DNS and IP
Hi John, Yep, noip.com is what I'm using too for the DNS update. However, due to my daftness, I kept going into IIS and changing the IP manually instead of just setting it to All Unnassigned. Works wonderfully now. I'm looking into easyDNS as they have some sort of association with my ISP. Hard to find out if they have all the features of noip or not though. I'd like to be able to host multiple domains on my box and noip has the ability to let me do that, DNS wise, but I can't tell if easyDNS will.

New CFMX Colour Scheme tool on line.
For my own benefit, I have been developing a colour schemer tool, and I've put it on my web site for others to use, comment about, help me improve. If you have coldfusion servers yourself, I am going to put it in the dev gallery at Macromedia soon. There are lots of colour development tools around, I know, but I got into doing my own because all the tools I have known about use _javascript_ and the scheme can't be saved.For example there's a great one at http://www.pixy.cz/apps/barvy/index-en.htmlbut if you click anywhere on the page, or try to cut and paste the colour numbers, it changes the scheme and you can't get back again easily.The only way to record the scheme you work on so hard, is to get a pen and paper and write down all the colour numbers. So I started developing my own, so I can produce a chart for each site I'm working on with the colours I've decided on for the site listed out.I've put it on my web site and I'd really appreciate if you could go have a look, and let me know if there's any way I can make it more useful, any features I should add. My one uses no _javascript_ at all, and the form uses the GET method, so you can email the URL and get the same results every time.You can email the url once you're happy with the colours you've selected and the receiver will see what you see as well. You can use either the full HEX colour number (e.g. #3366CC)or the 3 character abbreviation (e.g. #36C) and you select the number of steps you want between the first and last colour.It'll show you all the colours in between the two and samples of text in the different colours. You might also be interested to know there are no tables on this page- it's all done with CSS2. http://afpwebworks.com/colourschemer/is the address.

More local variables scoping weirdness
So I happened to loop over a recordset in a function today and one of the column names had the same name as an argument to the function.I thought nothing of it, and assumed that inside my CFLOOP tag, the column's value in the current record would have the highest priority in the scope search queue.But that's NOT the case. Local variables have a higher priority that columns when looping a recordset.Thus, if you want to reference a recordset column within a function that has either an argument or a local variable with the same name, you have to do it longhand: #recordsetname.columnname[currentrow]#, rather that the usual #columnname# Anyone have any clever insights about this, and/or know if it is/should be a bug?I think it should, but we all know my opinions on scoping are interesting. To prove to myself I wasn't crazy, I wrote a simple test case and included it below.While it will happen rarely (this is the first time it's happened to me), it seems counterintuitive that the local variables scope would be searched before the recordset, since the recordset loop is a narrower scope than the local variables scope.Both CFC methods loop the recordset and create a list of the 'id' field's values for the records.The output should, IMHO, be 1,2,3 for all three, but it is in fact 42,42,42, 37,37,37, and 1,2,3. test.cfm: - cfset q = queryNew(id) / cfset queryAddRow(q) /cfset querySetCell(q, id, 1) / cfset queryAddRow(q) /cfset querySetCell(q, id, 2) / cfset queryAddRow(q) /cfset querySetCell(q, id, 3) / cfoutput #createObject(component, test).testArg(q, 42)#br / #createObject(component, test).testLocal(q)#br / #createObject(component, test).testFullScope(q)# /cfoutput test.cfc: - cfcomponent cffunction name=testArg output=true cfargument name=rs / cfargument name=id / cfset var result = / cfloop query=rs cfset result = listAppend(result, id) / /cfloop cfreturn result / /cffunction cffunction name=testLocal output=true cfargument name=rs / cfset var id = 37 / cfset var result = / cfloop query=rs cfset result = listAppend(result, id) / /cfloop cfreturn result / /cffunction cffunction name=testFullScope output=true cfargument name=rs / cfset var id = 37 / cfset var result = / cfloop query=rs cfset result = listAppend(result, rs.id[currentRow]) / /cfloop cfreturn result / /cffunction /cfcomponent --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral [EMAIL PROTECTED] voice : 360.756.8080 x32 fax: 360.647.5351 www.audiencecentral.com [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: Function for data type determination
Ah.Sorry.I thought you were using simple data in a technical sense. As far as I know, there's not really a good way to do this.After all, IBM +3.75 6% 14-3/8 would make sense to some people (well, it would if it were really a stock quote), but doesn't fit the English or Number model. On the other hand, it is technically possible for an image (for example) to convert to an integer in Base64. I would guess that your best bet is to store some metadata about the content -- maybe a binary vs. text flag or something. I know that doesn't really answer your question, but I hope it helps anyway. --Ben Doom Chunshen (Don) Li wrote: OK, let's forget about the semantics here, if data look like a dog is looking at a cat or data look like 28233, fine; but else if the data look like JVBERi0xLjIgDQol4uPP0w0KIA (non-English set of data) do something here.
