Re: CF Jukebox redux - what browsers to support.
Dave Hmm First of all nice site.Where in KY? -- We spent some time,a while back in Loolvul. One of the best restaurants I have ever seen -- Orleans House. Anyway. 1) The initial page (menu of thumbnails) takes about 28 sec to load. 2) I never could get any thumbnail to show the full-size pic. 3) The videos loaded and started in about 5-10 seconds each. 4) there was no sound. Same thing, or less with Mac IE, Mac FireFox, Mac Mozilla, Mac Safari -- so I guess that Flash does not totally resolve the browser compatibility issue. when I ran a video (only thing running in that browser), the CPU would spike to about 67% and then settle at about 36% (even with the movie stopped). My system, using the, QT plugin only, shows CPU usage less than half of the above. I did not need to buy any authoring tools, although QT Pro helps ($29). I have a fast CPU and a DSL Internet connection. I was going to bed, but if you want to experiment off-line, let me know!

Re: CF Jukebox redux - what browsers to support.
it was near lvlle, bardstown but i just moved back home to the real world! (colorado) last week yeah i had forgotten that i had forgot to put some code in to make the pix work same code at http://www.yockeys.com/slipnslide/slipnslideday.html that video was taken with a cheesy lil $50 pocket camera http://www.aiptek.com/ Mini PenCam 1.3 which doesnt have any sound i took the avi's from the cam, aver - 167 mb and ran them through sorenson squeeze to a flv and pooped each 1 out under 1 mb for dial up the line i had in ky aver about 14,000 kbs and it came up very quickly. here i have a 3mg line (whoo hoo!) so it runs real good the only way i have to measure it is monitoring my ram and it doesnt touch it very much at all running a dell 8250 2.8 mhz 768 mb rdram xp pro (until tomorrow then its linux, whoo hoo!) try that other link and see if u want send me some video and i'll see what i can do with it i have this premade mp3 that completely rocks (in flash) that runs off xml is very easy to add new mp3's, takes about 5 minutes to do. I had one up but i took it down, was on gfs site. id assume if u saved the mp3's in streaming format and instead of using xml to control the playlist, used remoting that would take a huge load of the server. the only real overhead to that would be the stream coming in as the flash player would barely be going. im doing a site right now that will have a jukebox on the front page. was hoping to finish it before i head to montana next week im always up 4 some late night messin around, let me know what u have in mind i owe ya anyways:) dave -- Original Message -- From: Dick Applebaum [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date:Sun, 25 Jul 2004 00:25:26 -0700 Dave Hmm First of all nice site.Where in KY? -- We spent some time,a while back in Loolvul.

searching similar words
Hi all, I have a question for you. I'm building an online dictionary with CFMX and Access 2000. I'd like to do what Webster's (http://www.m-w.com) does, which is: if you search for kaflooey, the results page tells you there's no such entry in the dictionary, and they gives you a list of 10 possible alternatives, similar in spelling (e.g., kerflooey). How could that be achieved in CFMX? Any code, tag, or ready-made module that would do something like that, which could be added to a dictionary search? Or, any ideas/pointers/suggestions on how that functionality could be achieved?

Re: onTap
H While I'm looking through the site - is there a zip/download of the doco for onTap that I can read offline at my leisure? There's a zip of the framework core components which you can install on your own cf server -- as of right now all the documentation is cf-driven (it's the framework's first test-case). http://www.turnkey.to/ontap/docs/projects/ontap.zip Should also be the first link on the download page. Had a quick look and could not see anything. There are different plugins and components, I guess I'm looking for an offline copy/version of all the supporting notes etc. Would be very keen to wrap my head around its workings. Someone else recently mentioned there needing to be a document which would be a more in-depth overview. The overview page in the documentation right now is very high-level and explains only the purpose and some highlights of the framework with links. But the request was for more of an overview of how to develop an application from start-to-finish. I'm thinking about how to write something like this currently, but haven't started actually writing it yet. I did locate what I believe to be the problem with the site... something I was doing in the initialization of the security component which wasn't as well thought out as it ought to have been. Getting ready to upload a new build of the security component to the server now. s. isaac dealey954.927.5117 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=44477DE=1 http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=45569DE=1 http://www.turnkey.to/ontap [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

RE: searching similar words
Hi Roberto, Those search techniques are built into the dictionary server software. The RFC for dictionary servers can be found here... http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2229.html There are lots of links to C, Java, Perl and Python implementations of dictionary servers here http://www.dict.org/links.html You should be able to pick up some of the techniques to do what you want by going over the code Alternatively, if you have the capability to run a Linux box, just host your own dictionaries on a pre-built server thats built to the RFC!

Re: searching similar words
Verity, Lucene and some others have stemming which somewhat resolves singulars and plurals If you are looking for homonyms, synonyms you need a thesaurus. I've used Soundex, quite extensively -- many state local govts use this for things like name searches: Schmidt, Smith, Smythe give the same results. But Pfiffer and Fiffer resolve to different soundex codes. AFAIR, soundex is built into several dbs including SQL-Server. But, it has been my experience, that unless you are a professional searcher, like a librarian, these advanced search methods will be used rarely. There is one type of searching that offers a lot of possibility to rapid get the user the results he seeks -- a concordance with the output as a KWIC index. You do a multiple word (or multiple partial word) search and each result is shown on a line with context and search (key) words highlighted. A hit will generate multiple lines. The lines are sorted and presented so each line pivots around one key word, with the others highlighted. It is verbose butt-ugly, but you can rapidly run your finger (cursor) down the pivot word, see it in context with the other words, and find the hit you want, Amazon, qoogle, and some other sites claim to offer KWIC, but they don't really -- they just offer a multi-word search and highlight the words within a body of text.It is very difficult to compare the validity of one hit with another,They find the hits quickly, but the user must dig thru non-contiguous paragraphs to evaluate them. If they presented the hits in a KWIC index it would be easy for the user. Anyway, google for concordance and KWIC (KWAC and KWOC are just variants).

Re: searching similar words
MSSQL, and some other SQL databases, provide the SOUNDEX function, which would help you to do matches against words that have a similar pronunciation. Hi all, I have a question for you.

Re: CF Jukebox redux
I'll have a look I plan on open-sourcing mine -- when it is a little further along I will ask before I use any of your stuff Thanks Dick The reason there are two senators for each state is so that one can be the designated driver. -Jay Leno - On Jul 25, 2004, at 12:43 PM, JB McMichael wrote: I wrote a jukebox in CF a couple of years ago.

Re: A script to Prevent SQL Injection: feedback/suggestions?
Hi Matt, I looked at the CF MX 6.1 doc's for HTMLEditFormat: Replaces special characters in a string with their HTML-escaped equivalents. HTML-escaped string string. Returns are removed from string. Special characters (for example, ) are escaped. Personally I think that if you want to check query strings then using codecleaner to check and compare and stop processing is the way to go. Good security article here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn17502.htm Andrew. I think it might have been me! Hi Andrew, Thats what I remembered but wasn't 100% :-) Interesting thread indeed. Can htmleditformat be relied upon as a replacement for the url check?I use all this security stuff pretty religiously but insofar as being able to account for as much as possible... not my strong suit. -- --Matt Robertson-- MSB Designs, Inc. mysecretbase.com [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

Re: CF Jukebox redux - what browsers to support.
Nice interface -- but the FF and FR didn't work. And, I prefer a scrolling list of songs, rather than having to press a button to see which song it hides.This would not be acceptable with any more than a few songs -- and what about albums It does make my point about the overhead of Flash: I opened up a separate browser (mozilla) Only 1 window open, I ran several tests, first one then the other QuickTime Flash Plugin Plugin SWF --- 2-8% CPU20-24 % CPUSong loaded, but stopped 9-13 % CPU28-33 % CPUsong fully loaded playing 15-25 % CPUNAPlaying SMIL Playlist: Audio, Pictures and streaming text (3 parallel sources) 6-9% CPUNAABOVE loaded, but stopped 25-30 % CPUNAPlaying 720x480 movie with soundtrack Timecode track 5-8% CPUNAAbove loaded, but stopped Another way to say this is That the Flash version used 2-3 times the CPU cycles as the QT plugin. The Flash controls had a sticky feeling -- the QT did not. What continues to bother me about Flash is the high number of CPU cycles it uses when sitting idle, waiting for work, with the Flash window not even visible.

OT: Excel ?
Does anyone know how to dynamically add rows in excel? Here is what I have. I have a queue simulation setup in excel whereby in a cell you specify the number of customers as an interger. So for instance, 500. When I put that number in there I would to dynamically create 500 rows. Now for the kicker, I have one row setup already, customer 1. All the formulas are in this row's columns So all new rows should be based on the formulas from customer row #1. Is this possible? I have been reading simulation info on google all day, but can't figure it out.. TIA, Mike [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]
Re: Session-Based CFC Usage Across Clusters
Can you clarify what you mean by shared CFC instance?Do you mean in the application scope? If so, do you then lock each call to the shared CFC method? Yeah, or perhaps a CFC created on the fly (which obviously isn't really shared). The point is that the CFC instance isn't tied to the session in any way. You don't have to lock the calls to the shared CFC, because the CFC doesn't have any instance data.The instance data is passed in to each method call.You will have to lock any place you'd have to lock using a session-scoped CFC (to deal with race conditions between multiple requests to the same session, such as often happens when loading framesets), but no special locking for using this method. http://www.dofactory.com/Patterns/PatternFlyweight.aspx There's a link to how the Flyweight Pattern works.I'm applying it in a slightly different way, and for very different reasons, but the general concept of passing state into the method of a shared instance is the same.The shared instance part isn't necessary, as I said above, the important thing is that the instance has no ongoing relationship to the instance data. cheers, barneyb [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]
