I don't know what mates up with a text or memo field and such. The datatypes for cfqueryparam are the same as the datatypes in the JDBC spec so that mapping is easy. How JDBC datatypes are matched to database specific datatypes should be in the driver documentation. But you should probably try longvarchar.

Printing Labels from a Web Application?
Hi, I have just built e-commerce based web app but there is a need to print labels from within the back office to a laser jet with Avery A4 address labels. I could possibly use a Dymo 320 label writer instead. Luckily the back office is only viewed by IE6. If I was going to use the Avery method I'm unsure how to lay it out? Of course I could use CSS absolute positioning but what happens when I'm printing to the label on the 2nd row or 2nd column etc... I was thinking of using JS to position the labels dependent on what row\col I needed to print on but this could be cumbersome. I would only need to print one label at a time. So does anyone know of a way of integrating a semi-automated labelling system into the back office of a web application? If someone out there has solved this issue before I would greatly appreciate any thoughts on the matter before I try and reinvent the wheel myself! Any thoughts would be appreciated.

movie Clips on movie Clips?
Hi again, What I eventually am trying to do is to create a drag/drop menu where you can open and close the folders and add new folders - like Windows 2K.For this application, all movieclips/text boxes are created dynamically from Microsoft SQL.What I've thought anout doing is 1) to have a parent movie clip that is transparent.On top of this would be (1) a child MovieClip that is duplicated and that would hold the images of an open/close folder or a file;and (2) a text box that can hold the names of the menu items. 2) A similar way to acomplish this (I think), would be to have a text box with html set to true and HTMLtext = eval(IMG src="" + Name) and then addMovieClip.addListener(myTextField) I can't get the Img thing to work though I know it should in CFMX2004. 3) of course another way is with one movie clip that is next to its corresponding text.So the two are not really combined at all, but their instance names will be such that They always appear next to each other. The picture and text have to be combined or related in some fashion so that they always appear next to each other.This is because the user can add a folder or drag a folder (and its text) to another location in the menu. my question is: 1) how to create a duplicated movie clip ontop of another movie clip (for Scenario 1) 2) Any suggestions/comments 3) is there another good Flash forum?Perhaps one similar to this one for ColdFusion?

Re: clicking on a map
so you'd basically have to have a map from which you can get your x/y You just declare ISMAP in you IMG tag, but you don't have to actually define the HTML associate MAP and all AREAs. This way, the exact coordinates of the pixel hit are sent to the server. >From these coordinates, I can get the color index used by the pixel and return to the CF programer. You just need some table with the correspondance region/color and you know which region was clicked. No USEMAP, no AREAs, and the click is accurate to the pixel. but then you'd have to have some sort of spatial database with the ability to reverse geocode. Actually much simpler than this. This could be done also, but it depends the type of coordinate system used to draw the map, supposing you know it. -- ___ See some cool custom tags here: http://www.contentbox.com/claude/customtags/tagstore.cfm Please send any spam to this address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks.

Hmm, typo sorry.It's ImageMagick: http://www.imagemagick.org/ http://www.imagemagick.org/ I get the impression that it's already installed on most servers.However, it's a bit complex.If you can grab the color info using _javascript_ on the client side, that'd be cool.I'm sure you could also do it using the Java API, if you are familiar with how to manipulate Java2D.Also, there are other server side solutions that can pull tons of image data from a GIF, I just don't know what they all are.ImageMagick is the only one I've worked with. -Original Message- From: Claude Schneegans [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 19, 2004 11:20 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: clicking on a map You can then use something along the lines of ImageMagik If ImageMagik does this, it could do the job.

Hi again, What I eventually am trying to do is to create a drag/drop menu where you can open and close the folders and add new folders - like Windows 2K.For this application, all movieclips/text boxes are created dynamically from Microsoft SQL.What I've thought anout doing is 1) to have a parent movie clip that is transparent.On top of this would be (1) a child MovieClip that is duplicated and that would hold the images of an open/close folder or a file;and (2) a text box that can hold the names of the menu items. 2) A similar way to acomplish this (I think), would be to have a text box with html set to true and HTMLtext = eval(IMG src="" + Name) and then addMovieClip.addListener(myTextField) I can't get the Img thing to work though I know it should in CFMX2004. 3) of course another way is with one movie clip that is next to its corresponding text.So the two are not really combined at all, but their instance names will be such that They always appear next to each other. The picture and text have to be combined or related in some fashion so that they always appear next to each other.This is because the user can add a folder or drag a folder (and its text) to another location in the menu. my question is: 1) how to create a duplicated movie clip ontop of another movie clip (for Scenario 1) 2) Any suggestions/comments 3) is there another good Flash forum?Perhaps one similar to this one for ColdFusion?

Changing sessiontimeout attribute
Hello, the CFAPPLICATION tag is throwing me for a ride here. I can't seem to consistently change the timeout for session variables. I'm calling the CFAPP tag twice in application.cfm (don't worry about why, long story, it has to be done). Something like this cfapplication name=app1 sessionmanagement=yes sessiontimeout=#createtimespan(0,0,5,0)# cfset request.timeout = 10 cfapplication name=app1 sessionmanagement=yes sessiontimeout=#createtimespan(0,0,request.timeout,0)# And sometimes it changes the timeout value, sometimes it doesn't. For a while it seemed like it was only letting me overwrite the timeout if I supplied a large value than the previous one, but then it broke that rule. Whats up with that? I'm useing the session.getMaxInactiveInterval() function to check the current session timeout value. Thanks guys! [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Re: [OT] Dreamweaver nightmare
Your solution there is not to do it. Basically, you'd be defeating the concept of an editable region. If you need to add page-specific elements, it should either be done inside an editable area, or outside the html entirely (like for cf processing logic or includes, or whathaveyou). If you edit things that are in the non-editable region (ie., with a text editor) the next time you change the template and push the template change out to the subsequent pages, you'll lose your edits. Have it happen once and you'll no longer circumvent DW's security with a text editor. - Original Message - From: Mark W. Breneman the same note.

Re: [OT] Dreamweaver nightmare
If you edit in the non-editable areas, then you want to dissociate the page from the template. If you don't, and then update the template, it will overwrite your code in the non-editable areas. That's why those areas are non-editable. If you need to add code that is specific to the page, either add it in an editable area or create an editable area in the template to hold your code. -Kevin - Original Message - From: Mark W.

RE: Writing formatted data to Excel
I'd agree with John's suggestion that you should create the formatted text in Excel, save as HTML, and then view the HTML to see how it persisted the formatting information. The only difference of opinion I have is that this technique is extremely flexible and can be used to accomplish a very wide range of goals.I've used it extensively for formatting, formulas, and styles.I've also seen others use it to insert comments into a dynamically generated workbook (those little red triangles that you mouse over for more information). The trick is once you save as HTML, incrementally remove things until you've removed everything other than what you actually need.Then you can know for sure what tags/attributes create the result you want. Pay attention to the XML declarations on the root tag.They're required and even the prefixes must remain the same even though some point to the same namespace.This is contrary to XML standards but is fact of life when working with Office HTML/XML/CSS. MS does have a reference guide for this, Microsoft Office HTML and XML Reference.It doesn't have a tutorial or examples or anything, just a reference. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=""> ml/ofxml2k.asp?frame=true I have some related entries and presentations on my blog, but nothing directly on point.

2 CFMX UPgrade Questions

But, is there any way to say unless the thing in parens is s or es - in other words, this will turn this: adult(s) into Adult(S) (Note that I've ordered the teach yourself regular expressions book, but it hasn't arrived yet) - Original Message - From: Pascal Peters cfset capText = REReplace(text,\b(\w),\u\1,ALL) [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: XML/SOAP Credit Card Settlement with Bank of America
switch to in-process request? I had a nightmare of a time with them not too long ago.cf_bofainprocess was the result,Its a quick/dirty tag for use with their in-process method, not the new xml/soap.Its free in the MM devex. I wrote it to be simple, but the way it loops over a parm list can be troublesome if you have one missing occasionally.You can make it more robust by using individually-input parms rather than the list method I originally coded. -- Original Message -- From: Nathan Woodward [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date:Mon, 19 Apr 2004 13:25:44 -0700 We have been using Bank of America's credit card system and we have been having terrible performance with the settlement process involved with our credit card verification system. The initial problem is that when I try to load the wsdl file into dreamweaver MX it bombs out - this is the URL for the WSDL files: http://manager.bamart.com/custom/schemas/BAMARTAuthSettleService.wsdl Does anyone have any advice for getting the settlement process setup using their system?

Pass NTAuth to SQL thru CF5?
This is a topic that has come up several times in the past.I have always discouraged it, opting to go with an application-level security model.My question is, is it possible to pass the NT user authentication information directly to the SQL server thru CF?The goal would be to have the SQL server handle the security of the data.Any thoughts, ideas, comments on if this is possible and how, and if it's a good idea or not, and why? TIA! [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
problem with french characters when updating MSSQL.
I have the following being input into a MSSQL longtext I've tried several functions such as preservesinglequotes and paragraphformat but I still get errors... any ideas as to what string function I should be using? It seems to be choking on the french characters. french Nous avons tiss des liens long terme au sein de notre industrie avec des prteurs hypothcaires, des agents immobiliers, des hommes de loi et des valuateurs.

RE: problem with french characters when updating MSSQL.
From: Dan Farmer I have the following being input into a MSSQL longtext I've tried several functions such as preservesinglequotes and paragraphformat but I still get errors... any ideas as to what string function I should be using? It seems to be choking on the french characters. First off, is the field a nText or nVarchar? Secondly, what happens when you use CFQUERYPARAM? If you're not using it, why not? Thirdly, what version of CF? [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
