RE: ...just took 60+ seconds to load Hello World in Flex!
We're developing a set of commercial charting components for Flash and for Flex--we actually demoed them last November at MAX.Hence the familiarity. I don't know of any way to get rid of the loading message.If you look at the AS code generated by a Flex app, the loading thing is generated by the compiler on the _root timeline of the generated SWF.It doesn't even come from one of the components (it is a component, but it's kicked off from the timeline).Maybe there's an option somewhere though. The overhead will be addressed as soon as Flex supports runtime shared libraries.With this then the classes only have to be downloaded once.I would say that RSL are critical to the success of Flex, but it's really strange they weren't made a high-enough priority to be included in 1.0.I'd expect to see them in a 1.x or at least a 2.0 release. I also don't expect to see more than a handful of companies actually go into production with Flex 1.0.The price will keep it to only the largest companies (my company excluded) and the expected development timelines are for medium to long term projects.How many people do you know would bet a half million dollar project on a 1.0 product?That's the price point you're looking at for ROI over the purchase price of Flex (keeping in mind that large products typically have more CPU's and $12,000 is just the starting price).

App Mappings dilema
The last couple years of my life as a CF developer have been plagued by painful settings on their webserver. They established app mappings to force all .htm and .html files to be parsed by CF so they could stick CF tags into existing, previously-static pages and not have to change filenames to add dynamic funcionality. Aside from the excess load on the sever, it worked fine under CF5 for the past few years. Last night I upgraded that webserver, finally, to CFMX 6.1 -- unfortunately, the app mappings didn't carry over. I reset them to point to C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1\jrun.dll -- but that didn't do the trick. So then I edited the XML-based servlet mapping in the web.xml file, as per instructions I found here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18289.htm Still no luck. But the strangest thing is I get a very vague, generic error message. It just says: Error Occurred While Processing Request and gives me the standard error box without any details other than my browser build and IP address. What happens is .cfm files parse and display fine. But .htm files throw that error every time. If I rename a .htm file that contains no CF tags, and I just change the extension to .cfm, it renders fine. Does anyone know what I could be missing? Thanks in advance for any help... I'm in kind of a hurry because I don't want to back out of this upgrade but the sun has risen... Brian [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: JS help - checkboxes
If your calling that script from the OnSubmit function of your form tag,
simply return FALSE to the call:
FORM ACTION="" ACTION PAGE NAME=myFORM >
anyCheck('myForm')
Then in the script:
if (eval(document.registration.type_no[ + idx + ].checked) == true)
{
total += 1;
if (total 1) alert(You cannot select more than 1 registration type);
return false
}
}
return true
This is of course you need no other validation

Re: App Mappings dilema

RE: Breaking up table for printing (long)
I think you can do this with style sheets.
This is just off my head, and completely untested (I'm writing it into this email as I think of it).
What you want to do is create your panels as you want them to print them in div blocks.Then tell these div blocks to float left.What will happen is that if there is not enough room for the next div to fit to the right of the previous one, it will fall to below it in line.This works on the screen and on a printer.We did something like this for a telephone directory, we set the names into groups that would output in columns when printed.
Don't forget you can define a print style sheet with different properties then your screen.Makes it very easy to make your display look good both on screen and paper.
Some code snippets.
style media=print
div
{
width: 8in;
float: left;
}
/style
cfset sec = 1
div id=Panel1-#sec#
cfloop over data by dates
OUTPUT RESULTS
cfif Columns greater then 5
cfset sec = sec + 1
/div
div ID=Panel1-#sec#
/cfif
/cfloop
/div
I'm sure this will take quite a bit of refinement, but hopefully it gets you started.If you need more specific help let me know.

OK, that was a bit more complex then I thought.Luckily I enjoy a challenge.Here is a prototype of the display that you want, but this could be a challenge to integrate with a query, I think using the array notation of a query may be the best way.Anyway here is some tested code. cfloop from=1 to=3 index=panel cfoutput cfset sec = 0 cfloop from=1 to=100 step=5 index=data cfset sec = sec + 1 cfset start = data cfset end = start + 4 div id=Panel#panel#-#sec# style=margin-bottom: 1em; span style=width: 1.25in; font-weight:bold;Panel: #panel# Sec: #sec#/span cfloop from=#start# to=#end# index=result span style=width: 1in; font-weight:bold; DATE #Result# /span /cfloop cfloop from=1 to=5 index=test div id=row#test# span style=width: 1.25in;Test #test#/span cfloop from=#start# to=#end# index=result span style=width: 1in; ABCDEF /span /cfloop /div /cfloop /div /cfloop /cfoutput /cfloop [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: JS help - checkboxes
Glad to help.Here's one more tip.If you want HTML checkboxes and radio buttons to activate by clicking on the label (like other form-based apps), try this snippet of code:
LABEL FOR="" TYPE=radio ID=RB1 NAME=Foo VALUE=1Option 1/LABEL
I don't think it works on every browser, but it works on most modern ones and the others just ignore the LABEL tags.Note that the FOR parameter of the LABEL tag must match the ID parameter of the radio button or checkbox.

RE: ...just took 60+ seconds to load Hello World in Flex!
Yes, I was probably too negative in my earlier post.A Flex app will generally save bandwidth when comparing the whole app to an equivalent HTML app, but will be larger compared to the equivalent Flash app, and most importantly, larger than necessary due to current lack of RSL or ability to specify classes that will be available dynamically at run-time. Of course Flex is not made for Hello World apps and the 130kb startup size stays at just 130 for a while even when you load up a bunch of components as they reuse a lot of code.In my experience a typical real-world Flex app will be 200-400kb.

Is there a way that I can join 2 queries that have the exact same columns returned. Let me give you some background. I am trying to query an ldap server. It can only return 1000 users, so I had to filter it. So I had to make 2 different ldap queries that both return the same columns but have different information. I want to join them together without have to run 2 different loops to do some other things I'm doing. So anyone have any idea?

RE: 7 days old
or you could do it all in sql logic like this
CFQUERY NAME=whatsnew DATASOURCE=puhweb
select * FROM whats_new
WHERE dateAdded = DATEADD('d',-7,getDate())
order by dateAdded DESC
/CFQUERY
that should work, although im not 100% on the 'd' part, might just need
the d plain, and not in single quotes.
try it either way to see which is right.

CFUN-04 interviews 8 - CFMX XML with Jeff Tapper
In this CFUN-04 interview, Michael Smith interviews Jeff Tapper about his CFMX XML talk at CFUN-04. Jeff has been coding ColdFusion since 1995, and has co-authored several books on Internet application development. Michael Smith: Why should developers be interested in XML, Jeff? Jeff Tapper: The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is incredibly powerful because of its flexibility.While many think of XML as a revolutionary way for businesses to exchange data, that is but one of the very important roles that XML fills today.XML-based documents are often being used to share common data between different technologies, such as allowing a single configuration file to work for both a ColdFusion back end and a Flash front end of an application. MS: What are other uses for XML? JT: Others are using XML to create Microsoft Office Documents (such as Word, Excel, etc.), and... [the rest of this interview is at http://www.cfconf.org/CFUN-04/news.cfm or at Fusion Authority http://www.fusionauthority.com/ CFUN-04 is Saturday 6/26/04 - Sunday 6/27/04 in Washington DC area. It costs $199 until 3/31/04 then $269. For more information on CFUN see http://www.cfconf.org/cfun-04/. --- CFMX XML tricks and traps by Jeff Tapper ColdFusion has powerful XML support: some of its power is made available by simple tags and functions, and some requires a little digging around. In this session, you'll learn how to read and write XML data, how to perform searches and apply transformations, and how to access the internal XML processing in ColdFusion for even more power. Jeff Tapper is the Chief Technologist for Tapper.net Consulting. He has worked on a myriad of projects, for clients that include Toys R Us, IBM, Allaire, Dow Jones, American Express, MT Bank, Verizon, and Allied Office Supplies, among others. As a Macromedia Instructor, he is currently certified to teach all of Macromedia's courses on ColdFusion and Flash development. Jeff has been a member of the ColdFusion development community since 1995, and has co-authored several books on Internet application development, including: Allaire Spectra e-Business Construction Kit, Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion 5 Application Development, Dynamic Publishing with ColdFusion MX, Actionscript 2.0 Dictionary, and most recently Object Oriented Programming with ActionScript 2.0. He is also a frequent speaker at Macromedia Development Conferences and user groups. Jeff formed Tapper.net Consulting to focus on developing Rich Internet Applications and empowering clients through mentoring. --- CFUN is organized by TeraTech who received four CFDJ awards.

7 days old
WHERE dateAdded = '#dateFormat(dateAdd('d',-7,now()),'mm/dd/')#'
I guess this works cause it's querying a date field with a date.
Interestingly, it previously had {currentDate()-7}.Maybe it was
currDate().I'm updating it.
So now it's doing the query, it's giving me not a valid month, but
It seems to me that we're adding a date here (subtracting really).
Looks like this is close.
Oh wait, I did:WHERE dateAdded #dateAdd(d,-7,Now())#
This seems to have worked.I removed the dateFormat because as
suggested, it seemed unnecessary.I also removed the quotes.I
don't have alot of data to test from but it seems ok.
WHERE dateAdded = DATEADD('d',-7,getDate())
well this is ORACLE, but the function looked the same there, though I
didn't look up getDate();
This gave me the error, invalid column name, though I don't know
why as dateAdded is the right column.It specifies the top line of
the query with the error.
WHERE dateAdded = #createODBCDate(dateAdd('d', -7, now())#
error:
Invalid CFML construct found on line 34 at column 64. (the WHERE line)
ColdFusion was looking at the following text:
#
assuming (yeah, yeah, i know) that dateAdded is a date/time datatype,
why the dateFormat() function?
good point.
WHERE dateAdded cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_timestamp
value=#DateAdd(d,-7,Now())#
and would this change since it's ORACLE?
sorry folks, I should have mentioned that it was ORACLE.
I'm doing a query for all records that are newer than 7 days.
whew.

I am having some server issues with my server reporting NULL NULL and JavaOutofMemory Errors.

RE: Breaking up table for printing (long)
Original Message: From: Ian Skinner Thanks.I've actually figured out a solution.I spent an hour late yesterday developing a mathematical formula for how to display this data on my dry erase board (I felt like Good Will Hunting :) ). I've since managed to get this working in ColdFusion, too :). Here's the basics: The formula is: recordNumber = c + (colsPerRow * (i-1)) + ((n-1) * numDates) where c = the column number in the table ( from 1 to colsPerRow ) colsPerRow = columns per row i = number of the iteration through all of the dates (i.e., if there are 3 sets of dates, i will be from 1 to 3) n = the row number in the table ( from 1 to the numTests ) numDates = the number of total dates (ListLen(datelist)) numIterations = Ceiling(numDates / colsPerRow) numTests = the number of tests [from a query] Once you know that formula, you can do this (pseudo code): 1) Loop along the number of iterations (using i as the index) 2) Loop along the number of tests (using n as the index) 3) Loop along the colsPerRow (using c as the index) 4) If c = 1, then display the test name for that row [returned in a query] (using the above formula] 5) Then, display each result(getPanels.result[recordNumber]) This works and appears to work for all the values I've tested it with.Thank goodness. This has been a thorn in my side for a while now. Thanks for the suggestions!

The long answer is you can do it by writing the CF from the DB to a file, and the include that file.However, that's nasty because you have the compilation cycle every request, and writing files and then deleting them adds a lot of overhead.Back in the pre-MX days, I know some people used this solution on a RAMDISK which probably worked pretty well, because there wasn't a precompile cycle (the CFML was interpreted).

Compressing for download
CF 5.0, IIS, NT Server 2003. Is there any way to implement a page where a user might select multiple files, then when he/she hits submit, have the files zipped together and downloaded? If it can't be done with CF alone, are there any 3rd-party solutions?

Email Not Being Sent from Local Server (CF5)
Howdy, Since migrating to a new computer a couple months back, now running Win XP Pro with CF version 5, I can't get any mails generated with the cfmail tag to leave the local server. They keep getting stuffed in the cfusion/mail/UnDelivr folder. I've tried using 127.0.0.1 and my regular SMTP mail server for my ISP (which used to work on the old machine). Any ideas on what I can check? It ain't critical, but it's very annoying when developing/testing pages that need to send emails and they won't go.

How many class files do YOU have?
I repoted to this list awhile ago about really long start up times for one of my apps on the first run. It seems that this problem has been resolved by defragging the HD? The C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\cfclasses folder had a lot of fragmented files as well as other areas on the HD. Does that make sense? Anyhow, I have 6,591 class files in my class folder taking up about 80 megs. So, I am curious now how many class files ya'll have on your servers? And another question related to disk usage; what are the guidelines for a paging file and is it needed if you have lots of physical ram?

RE: How many class files do YOU have?
And another question related to disk usage; what are the guidelines for a paging file and is it needed if you have lots of physical ram? The reason I ask is because I wonder if a fragmented HD, and a page file on that disk might cause problems. Ideally, on a Windows machine, you'd place the pagefile on a separate partition, and you'd set it with a fixed size equal to the recommended size, so that it's always exactly the same size. If you do this during your initial machine configuration, you won't have to worry about pagefile fragmentation.

RE: CF in a database (my apologies)
If the data does not change that often, you should be okay writing it to a cfml file and then including it. On future uses of the data you can check to see if the file already exists and if not re-generate it, and if it does, just include it. Whenever the data in the DB record is updated, also delete the generated cfml file which will force the script it to re-generate it the next time it is requested. I do this with one of my apps and it works good. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: How many class files do YOU have?
There is a slick utility offered by Sysinternals 'http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/pagedefrag.shtml' called pagedefrag that does a great job defragmenting your pagefile (if you don't have the luxury of putting it on another disk.I've been using it for a year now on all our windows NT+ class systems, at the worst it doesn't seem to create problems, at the best I think it helps machines start and stop faster. Dave's recommendation of setting the minimum size to the same as the maximum size is mandatory on our systems (one of the first performance setting we make). Also, if you have a lot of memory you can disable paging 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management' 'DisablePagingExecutive' to stop the OS from putting peices of itself in swap. Even if you do have a lot of memory many programs will not work unless you have a paging file, I guess even computer programs like to have a place to doodle? -Nate -Original Message- From: Brook Davies [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 09, 2004 2:25 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: How many class files do YOU have?

Re: How many class files do YOU have?
If you have that many CFM's then the reason you are getting OutOfMemory errors is due to the fact that you are running out of space in the permanent generation of the Java Heap. I won't get into specifics with JVM tuning. I have some info on my blog http://bpurcell.org but to fix this bump up the -XX:MaxPermSize value in your jvm.config to 192 or 256 it should get rid of the problem. Also load testing has found that you can uncheck the value save class files in the admin and still get the same performance without storing the class files to disk. They will be compiled on first hit and loaded into memory. With the slick new compiler in 6.1 it is very efficient, in fact more efficient than having to sort through 6000 class files to load the appropriate file. Hope that helps Brandon [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: Determining if a value exists in a query result
That is very similar to the way I do it. I think you can skip the query loop by using valuelist(): cfset variables.selected_features = valuelist(q_selected_features. feature_id) Note you can simplify that cfif statement in the checkbox down to: cfif listfind(variables.selected_features, feature_id) The above code *should* work the same as your code just a little simpler.

7 days old
Why don't you just try it and tell us? I had tried it and received an error, though now hours later I don't remember the error.Since I'm a bit new at this, I don't know if the error was due to me or the fact that I was trying several things at once and one after the other, or that it didn't apply to Oracle. I did a search before I wrote back and didn't find any references to 'cfqueryparam' and oracle.I had barely any hits and saw a mention that it was for SQL, which I assumed meant NOT Oracle, so that's why I asked. I don't know whether it's not for Oracle or that it 'just worked' as is for Oracle and no one mentions it specifically.So Anyhoo, I have it working and I learned a bit.

RE: CF in a database
I've not tried this in MX (have they actually improved it that much?) but in previous version EVALAUTE() would NOT evaluate tags, only expressions. So you could do EVALUATE(#myName#) or EVALUATE(#Len(myName)#) or even EVALUATE(#Iif(Len(myName), DE(Hi), DE(Bye))#) But NOT EVALUATE(cfoutput#myName#/cfoutput) Of course since 5.0 you could also abstract much of the Tag work you might need into UDFs allowing you to perform much more complex evaluations.But in the end also remember that Evaluate() is one of the most expensive and slowest of the CF functions so that that into account.

Re: Determining if a value exists in a query result
Mark W. Breneman wrote: I think you can skip the query loop by using valuelist(): cfset variables.selected_features = valuelist(q_selected_features. feature_id) Note you can simplify that cfif statement in the checkbox down to: cfif listfind(variables.selected_features, feature_id) The above code *should* work the same as your code just a little simpler. Thanks a ton. I'm going to try the simplified version now. Thanks, -- Austin [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: CF in a database (my apologies)
If the data does not change that often, you should be okay writing it to a cfml file and then including it. On future uses of the data you can check to see if the file already exists and if not re-generate it, and if it does, just include it. Whenever the data in the DB record is updated, also delete the generated cfml file which will force the script it to re-generate it the next time it is requested. I do this with one of my apps and it works good. cfset requestedpage = 5.cfm !--- include CFML from Record ID 5 --- cfif not fileExists(#request.fileroot#generatedCFML/#requestedpage#) cfquery name=myCFML select * from tbl_CFMLRespository where ID=5 /cfquery ! write the cfml to a file --- cfilfe action="" file=#request.fileroot#generatedCFML/#requestedpage# output=#myCFML.cfml# /cfif !--- include the generated cfml file --- cfinclude template=generatedCFML/#requestedpage# On your page where the CFML in the Database gets updated, you would simply delete the file after it was updated: cfquery name=myCFML update tbl_CFMLRespository set cfml='cfif x is 7 or z is 9cfset myFlag=true/cfif' where ID=5 /cfquery ! delete the cfml file if it exists --- cfif fileExists(#request.fileroot#generatedCFML/5.cfm) cfilfe action="" file=#request.fileroot#generatedCFML/5.cfm /cfif Brook P.S This is Pseudo Code!

The long answer is you can do it by writing the CF from the DB to a file, and the include that file.However, that's nasty because you have the compilation cycle every request, and writing files and then deleting them adds a lot of overhead.Back in the pre-MX days, I know some people used this solution on a RAMDISK which probably worked pretty well, because there wasn't a precompile cycle (the CFML was interpreted).

Re: How many class files do YOU have?
Brandon, OKay, I set the server to NOT write cache files to disk and deleted all the cache files. I also increased the maxPermSize as suggested. Any reason I should not increase it to 512? I have the 3 gigs of ram on the server. Also,my app writes lots of cfm files to disk, that why I have 6000 class files. Will this still be okay using the on-the-fly-compiler? Should I set the template cache higher than 1024? Brook At 01:52 PM 4/9/2004, you wrote: If you have that many CFM's then the reason you are getting OutOfMemory errors is due to the fact that you are running out of space in the permanent generation of the Java Heap. I won't get into specifics with JVM tuning. I have some info on my blog http://bpurcell.org but to fix this bump up the -XX:MaxPermSize value in your jvm.config to 192 or 256 it should get rid of the problem. Also load testing has found that you can uncheck the value save class files in the admin and still get the same performance without storing the class files to disk. They will be compiled on first hit and loaded into memory. With the slick new compiler in 6.1 it is very efficient, in fact more efficient than having to sort through 6000 class files to load the appropriate file. Hope that helps Brandon -- [http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=t:4Todays Threads] [http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:159534This Message] [http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4Subscription] [http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=905.825.4Fast Unsubscribe] [http://www.houseoffusion.com/signin/User Settings] -- http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=17 4a4000d.jpg [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: How many class files do YOU have?
Should I set the template cache higher than 1024? Yes, I think you should set it to the number of CFM files you have (or expect to have).

Re: Date list using SQL IN operator
Ok, I figured out I should use ListQualify on the list to add the single quotes and preservesinglequotes within the query to preserve the quotes for revised code of: cfoutput query=checkForEmp21Overlap cfset overlapRecordCount= ListAppend(overlapRecordCount,DateFormat(myStart,mm/dd/)) cfif DateFormat(myStart,mm/dd/) gte DateFormat(finalDay,mm/dd/) cfbreak /cfif /cfoutput cfset overlapRecordCount = ListQualify(overlapRecordCount,',,,CHAR) cfquery name=megaquery_output_recordspecific_dateRestricted dbtype=query SELECT * FROM megaquery_output_recordspecific WHERE (myStart BETWEEN cfqueryparam cfsqltype=CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP value=#formattedBeginDay# and cfqueryparam cfsqltype=CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP value=#formattedEndDay#) cfif listlen(overlapRecordCount) gt 0 AND (myStart NOT IN (#preserveSingleQuotes(overlapRecordCount)#)) /cfif ORDER BY myStart; /cfquery Now the problem is I get a Query Of Queries runtime error. Unsupported type comparison. I tried using cfqueryparam to set the type to date, but it doesn't seem to be compatible with lists. Any new suggestions? Thanks!
