If the string is not single quoted as in: this is samp'le data to in'sert you can just use the "replace" function like so: If the string IS quoted as in: 'this is samp'le data to in'sert' you can just add the following: In other words, replace all single quotes with two single quotes (the Replace() function), then give me the entire string minus the first and last characters (the Mid() function). This will create double single quotes at the beginning and end, then immediately eliminate them. You might also want to Trim() the strings before processing them if you're unsure of the input. Hope this helps.

Re: (Admin) Please test
It's as if something important is happening with the trial and we just can't tell anyone who's not on the trial what it is. :) Luckally, the trial is rather open to all who have the time to install and report on it. I'm hoping some here who are not on the trial get the hint and get on now. As for it being live, FA has had it live for a while now while I tested out a lot of stuff for performance and use. Got some tight code out of the tests and was going to move HoF over when the latest news hit. Gave me more reason to do so. I'm glad I did, though there were some funky hacks that I wrote over the years that had to be re-examined. all in all, I'm very happy with the results. >And likewise I can't comment on whether I'm in the trial or not, but it's >good to know the latest version (whichever that may be ;-) is being used on >real sites. > >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, 13 December 2004 3:13 >To: CF-Talk >Subject: Re: (Admin) Please test > >Yep.

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
I see ColdFusion is powerfull since we are using and seeing the power. Maybe it needs an IDE that improves code/architecture quality and productivity. However it is really expensive for small and medium projects. Our company need to use other technologies for small/medium projects, so we have experience of other technologies. And we can continue to use the others for large projects... I mean there are strategical mistakes with CF prices currently which will probably cause to die of CF in the future.

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
Cmon, step of that pre defined CF idea. It makes a discussion very difficult, when people are rusty in their current web application platform, and do not try to be open minded about other possible ways. The flamewar part is long gone (if there was a flamewar, it was merely a sharp discussion). Say to a PHP engineer CF takes away PHP market or just totally without argument "PHP sucks" and you'll get the same effect, people with high blood pressures, smashing their keyboards, getting all sweaty, just eager proving their right and trying to win the battle with attacking people with accusations instead of arguments ;) It happens on all tech boards.

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
I guess they did something terribly wrong there, PHP is a very simple language, you could even compare the learning curve to CF. I build my apps as fast with CF as PHP or ASP (C# other story), so I must guess there have been other issues except the application server used.

I tried varying the type in CFCONTENT as well and continued to get the same result over and over. It's maddening... this behavior only slows up when you mix Windows IE, SSL and IIS. For cripe's sake, it works on the *Mac* flawlessly! Can anyone recommend a good tool (either standalone or plugin for IE) that will allow me to see the HTTP response headers for a particular request? That way I could at least compare the headers generated for a "regular" file download and then tweak my CFHEADER statement(s) to match.

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
For most small to medium projects I'm not sure why you would ever want to buy CF anyway - hosting seems the way to. Since the development servers are free you can create and publish a CF application for very little money just as you would anything else. In my experience the cost of CF server (at $1200) is insignificant in the scheme of any project where they'll be buying and managing their own servers.

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
There are no professional CF hosting in Turkey :( So we always need to buy CF to host our projects which should be hosted at different geographical locations. We're using similar approach for most projects, because we generally solve all of the problems of the projects (providing hosting, maintenance, security, content contribution solutions for years). Sometimes our customers wants to host the site their own servers which requires a separate ColdFusion license. These conditions force us to shift other technologies, so maybe I cannot see the future of CF properly due to these conditions. Its popularity is different in Turkey. Finally, we have some plans for next year to setup a small CF hosting company in Turkey :) (Any suggestions to setup a CF hosting company are welcome) This will help us to continue with CF.

RE: SOT moving to FireFox
Prior to IE6, the boxmodel of IE was build upon the idea margin+padding+border were included in the width. You are able to change boxmodel rendering using the appropriate css rules, (mostly you just need border or padding box). The box model can be workaround by not using width/height in combination with padding/margin. So add an extra nesting to prevent boxmodel issues, or change the boxmodel rendering with the css properties created for it. This model however can be suppressed by forcing IE into quirks. I would recommend it to everyone, since standards mode is to buggy for production.

Using a J2EE Application Server
Hi All. I'm looking for a little bit of information. In what case would you use CFMX on a J2EE platform? We current have a server using CFMX & Apache on RedHat. What does using the J2EE platform give me and do the J2EE replace Apache as the webserver or do you still need that? Thanks for any information anyone can provide.

RE: Spammer fills out my order form - how to stop
Be aware that CAPTCHA techniques are not accessible and will prevent some valid users from using your site. Because of this, the W3C recommends against them (though they don't offer a viable alternative). It's also important to know that they are vulnerable to a sort of "man in the middle" attack, though the likelihood of a smaller site being targeted, and just for spam, is pretty low. It's a technique, just not a silver bullet. -Kevin > -Original Message- > From: Joe Rinehart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, December 11, 2004 7:33 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: Spammer fills out my order form - how to stop > > Hey Rick, > > It's called a CAPTCHA.

variables... to prefix or not to prefix
Just out of curiosity, who prefixes their variables with a data type abbreviation... integer - intVariableName numeric - numVariableName string - strVariableName structure - stcVariableName array - arrVariableName object - objVariableName query - qryVariableName etc... We are ever expanding our best practices and guideline documents and this is an agenda point up for discussion soon... I want to some in with some pros and cons. At first glance, the code becomes more descriptive but I do see and have run into, many problems such as passing around URL params.. do you really want to give anymore information than necessary into the type of data within a variable? What about if you encrypt variables?... The number 1 could be viewed as URL.intSomeId but once encrypted it is no longer an interger it is a string URL.strSomeId, this only touches the tip here. Anyone have anything to offer on this topic? Thanks.

Re: variables... to prefix or not to prefix
I don't normally preface the vars...but I do try to be descriptive enough in the var name that it's evident what the var is. For arrays and structs in particular, i'll do something like "empArray" or "empStruct". But as far as explicitly identifying strings, ints, etc...not really. empName is pretty clearly a string. empID is clear enough (IMO) that it's a numeric value. etc. On Mon, 13 Dec 2004 10:02:39 -0500, Tangorre, Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Just out of curiosity, who prefixes their variables with a data type > abbreviation... > > integer - intVariableName > numeric - numVariableName > string - strVariableName > structure - stcVariableName > array - arrVariableName > object - objVariableName > query - qryVariableName > etc... > > We are ever expanding our best practices and guideline documents and > this is an agenda point up for discussion soon...

CF5 Registry Errors
Had 2 incidents on a CF5 / Windows 2000 server this morning that are making me real neverous. 1) Went to add a new CFX tag in the CFAdmin and got the following error message: Error Diagnostic Information Unable to set the registry key hkey_local_machine\software\allaire\coldfusion\currentversion\CustomTags\ A problem was encountered trying to access the system registry. Error number 2 occurred - The specified registry key does not exist.

Tried a restart on the machine, and when it came back up, I tried to get back into the CF Admin and it spawned a Windows Meida player which gave an error that index(1).asx was an invalid media stream. When I went into the IIS Admin all of the sites in IIS admin were stopped, and when I tried to start them I kept getting an error "the IP address is already in use". In services I stopped all of the Windows Meida services and got that "fixed", so at least sites that don't require CFX tags are running. Before I panic and drop the $499 to Allaire for a single incident of support, can anyone give any insight on this? ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - RUWebby http://www.ruwebby.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187368 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Re: Using a J2EE Application Server
Ok I gotcha now :) Technically yes J2EE server can function as a webserver, but I wouldn't recommend doing that because its really not what it's meant to do. As far as the comment that was made to you it seems like they are confusing J2EE and Apache. Yes you could have CF ride on top of Apache however I don't think you can serve it on top of that. I don't think there are connectors available to do so. (I did a quick look up for Tomcat, JBoss, Weblogic, or WebSphere and didnt see them available) I definitely think that if you wanted to do anything on J2EE server I'd recommend using JSPs and Servlets.

Re: Using a J2EE Application Server
I think you are right and that they didn't really understand what they where talking about. I've been doing some digging about and I'm heading towards think that problem lays with the Apache connector. I might look into using the CF built in web server, anyone had any experience of doing it that way? Andrew.

RE: SOT moving to FireFox
Michael the Tantek hack is one of the most ugliest hacks available for many reasons (for ex. future use of working selectors) :) People think the standard doctype is the best decision, working with standards, giving them the idea of being innovative and future driven.. you are being fooled by IE. The best doctype currently for IE is still IE 4.0, read more about it on www.annevankesteren.nl. The biggest mistake of the entire doctype thing going on is people who haven't got a clue about what the doctype actually means, or what doctypes browsers support.

Quirks mode allows developers to maintain backwards compatibility and avoid
all those really ugly hacks you included in your message. The problem with
the hacks is that they all rely on implementation bugs. If this were object
oriented programming, the phrase would be "program to the interface, not the
implementation."

I agree with the use of conditional comments as override mechanism for the
reasons you mention. It's important to note the difference between this and
the other hacks you described: this is a documented feature. As such, you
can rely on it. It's also semantically clear.

My interpretation of what Micha was saying is that trying to use standards
mode (as opposed to quirks mode), brings out the bugs and odd behavior in
older browsers. This leads to more development time and ugly hacks like the
ones you mentioned. Of course, I may have misunderstood Micha. :)

Re: Coldfusion tag prefixes
Other people have answered, but just as a random FYI, you can also use cfa_foo to call custom tags, but the custom tag must be named cfa_foo.cfm, not foo.fm. This was used in Spectra days and I'm mostly sure it still works in MX. Don't do this though, I'm just sharing a bit of random info. :) On Mon, 13 Dec 2004 15:36:36 +1100, Stephen Cowling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Is it all possible to create your own tag prefix?

I believe it included padding and border but not margin, but I haven't actually tested to verify this. Again, I'm basing my information off of the following page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnie60/html /cssenhancements.asp "When the !DOCTYPE declaration does not switch on standards-compliant mode, as with earlier versions of Internet Explorer, the width property includes the object's content box, plus the values of the following properties: border-left, border-right, padding-left, and padding-right. Subtracting the sum of the values of these properties from the value of the width property equals the width of the parent object's content box. Likewise, subtracting the sum of the values of the border-top, border-bottom, padding-top, and padding-bottom properties from the value of the height property equals the height of the parent object's content box." > The box model can be workaround by not using width/height in combination > with padding/margin.

While cfimport is an alternate way of calling custom tags, it should be noted that cfimport is a *compile-time* directive, and, as such, can offer performance improvements to your application (yes, it's minimal, but still). The one drawback is that you can't have a variable name in the cfimport taglib attribute because CF needs to know up front what the value is. The cf_* and cfmodule tags do run-time lookups of the requested tag, which allow you to store the directory path (if using cfmodule) in an application variable and use that variable as the path to the tag. Further, if you use cfimport, the directive must be directly on the page that you are calling that particular tag (as opposed to cfinclude-ing a page that makes a reference to the custom tag).

I can't agree with the "force IE into quirks" suggestion. Working around
the box model is just to easy to justify making IE even less standards
compliant than it already is. I've been using CSS, rather than tables,
for positioning and presentation for some time now and while forcing IE
6 into quirks mode might solve some problems found in IE, it doesn't
make the overall process any easier or less buggy.
If you force IE 6 into quirks mode, you still have to hack the box
model--in quirks mode you'll just be lumping IE 6 in with the hack. The
simple method of doing this is:
#myBox {
border: 1px solid #333;
margin: 5px;
padding: 5px;
width: 200px;
\width: 222px; /* All IE width */
}
However, you can hack the box model for only IE 5.x easily enough using:
#myBox {
border: 1px solid #333;
margin: 5px;
padding: 5px;
width: 200px; /* For browsers that don't understand escapes */
\width: 222px; /* IE 5.x width */
w\idth: 200px; /* IE 6 and other modern browsers' width */
}
You could also use conditional comments to feed any version of IE
selectors, properties, and values as necessary:
Which would contain:
#myBox {
width: 222px;
}
Using conditional comments allows you to keep all of your IE specific
CSS in one stylesheet, helps to avoid using hacks in your main
stylesheet, and improves the shelf life of the document.
Standards mode for IE 6 is not too buggy for production. I'll agree it's
not even close to perfect, but it is a step in the right direction and a
far cry better than IE 5.x's poor CSS support.

Re: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
Let's say I have a website I want to cluster on 10 servers. With CF, that's 10 production licenses at whatever cost you can find CF at. With .NET, it's zero cost, so there can be some additional cost savings. Also, no matter what way you cut it, CF Enterprise is quite expensive. Also, only development licenses are free.

RE: SOT moving to FireFox
Nope you are right .. I had to learn using quirks mode the hard way. During the creation of hundreds of css layouts we quickly figured out IE truly sucked when not in quirks mode. The bugs, were related to relative, absolute positioning, margins, paddings, canvas measurements, and oh much more. For the average simple blog you won't notice a lot of the problems, but creating stuffed dynamic UI's combined with javascript and keeping that CSS, that's is on the edge work for IE.

When .NET came out, and people started to use and understand it better, the Java community did what every CF person should be doing: they learned .NET. And then they deconstructed it. And then they asked themselves: "What can we take from .NET to make Java better" They realized that JSP was too simple, and that it didn't include enough base functionality. They realized that making custom tags in JSP was too hard. They realized that frameworks like Struts and JSF weren't perhaps the road to go down. They realized that it was too unwieldly to configure and deploy Java servers, and that it brought no real benefits the way they did it. They realized that EJBs were too hard to design, and for no good reason. They realized that in order to keep Java as a first class development platform, they had to fix these problems, and add more features as they went along. Not just one or two "cool" features that Sun would provide on high as determined by their marketing department, but real things that would matter on a day to day basis from a developer's point of view. One day, I'd like to see the CF community do that. There's a few people out there that do that, and Will's semi-rant is a vent not just at MM, but the people that use CF that seem to want to defend it to the death, and the verocity at chiding people who want to see CF change and improve. I'm curious. I wonder how many people on this list said, before CFMX came out, and before Neo was a twinkle in anyone's eye: "CF should be written in Java." I'd say no one. This is not a place for change. ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - New Atlanta http://www.newatlanta.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187399 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

CFDUMP var=variables shows custom functions?
I have an error tracker on my code that emails me a dump of just about everything. Today, on one site, I started including all of the CFLib.org files for all page requests rather than as needed. Nice idea, except that now my email error dumps are twenty times larger than before, all because the UDFs are listed in the 'variables' portion of the dump and list a complete function prototype.

Hi Andrew, Not sure what you're asking...Apache is not a J2EE server, however a J2EE server like Tomcat or JBoss can ride on top of Apache. Are you looking for a full blown J2EE server that does EJB or just a JSP Container?

Please don't belittle my comments with such an offhand packaged response. I am try to respond in a reasonable and considered manner. The least you could do is return the courtesy. What is it that makes you think that it is a crutch? On the one hand you're berating CFML for it's lack of vision, and on the other you seem to be claiming that it's somehow cheating to use some of the very powerful things that CFMX makes available to you. > > I though the whole point of CF was to make it easy for developers to develop. > And everything else is hard/takes longer/is more expensive. CF abstracts the complexity away from the developer. Some applications are more complex than others and although CF does an excellent job for the majority of cases, there are times when it is desirable to work at a lower level than CFML will allow. In those cases it is entirely reasonable to write that functionality in Java and call the java classes from a CFML template. There are quite a few benefits to this not least of which is that CFML stays simple enough to be an entry level language that is easy to debug and maintain, while still being powerful enough to be used in some of the largest and most complex applications around. I would guess that the vast majority of CFML developers will never need to write any java code. CFMX already provides them with all the tools they need to get the job done and in the cases where it doesn't, there are quite a few tools out there written in Java to fill the gaps and no shortage of developers who can write the necessary java code if you can't write it yourself. > So why do I want to use something hard like Java to do something in CF? Because you're pushing the limits of what the application server is designed to do. The application server is designed to meet the needs of the majority of the customers. There will inevitbly be cases where that means that it isn't desirable or possible to implement some functionality in CFML itself. The pay off is that CFML stays approachable and simple to work with. I for one would be horrified if Macromedia decided to expose full thread management in CFML. Thread programming is relatively complex and you can easily tie the server in knots if you aren't careful. The point is that all the power you need is available to CF as long as you are prepared to accept that some things will need to be done in Java. Macromedia try pretty hard to make sure that those things are edge cases and don't impact the majority of their customers. If they didn't ColdFusion would have disappeared a long time ago. > > ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - CFDynamics http://www.cfdynamics.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187429 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
> Huh? So suggesting mixing VB.NET and C# to squeeze more power from a .NET > app that is what, a crutch? And what about writing straight Java when JSP > can't do enough? I hate to take the other side of this argument, but I think your example is flawed. There's no practical reason to use C# over VB.Net because they are both 1st class .Net languages. In other words, neither language is more powerful than the other. From what I've seen, you could convert a VB.Net app to C# with a search and replace. This is in contrast to the jump from CFML to Java, which is relatively huge. You're going from a dynamic/weakly typed, quasi-markup scripting language to a static/strongly typed, C-style compiled language. And that's not counting the shift from procedural programming to object oriented programming. You simply can't expect most ColdFusion developers to make the jump from ColdFusion to Java. That said, I think that, for most people, the barrier to entry for VB.Net/C# is greater than that for ColdFusion. However, once you've made that jump, the .Net framework provides a tremendous amount of functionality. Nevertheless, as opposed to constructs like , the .Net framework is not necessarily Web friendly. You have to write a lot of implementation code in ASP.Net that you don't have to write in ColdFusion.

Compare, for example, the cost of an 8-CPU Oracle license for web access with the cost of CF Enterprise on a cluster of six 8-CPU servers. The Oracle license is way more expensive. Consider the costs of creating a fully redundant Oracle master/slave cluster to serve a website. If you're in that sort of business arena, CF isn't expensive at all. WebSphere, WebLogic, Oracle AS et al are all more expensive than CF Enterprise. The integration software packages to integrate those to ERP and CRM systems are $100k per server. > Finally, the cost of software is typically a small fraction of overall > application deployment and maintenance costs anyway.

RE: Can't Signin
Try it now. The issue was one of naming. I used a variable called method to indicate what page to load into a multi-page interface.

I've fixed it for the sign in and will do so for any other location I find. This will be replaced with more up to date and tighter code as soon as I get another free second.

RE: CFDUMP var=variables shows custom functions?
Copy them to the request or another scope, then delete their reference in the variables scope. Something like: I'm not sure if this will work exactly as I have written it, however. One other solution is to store all of your page variables in a struct. Then, you can dump only that struct and ignore all other variables-scoped variables.

Maybe I'm the only one that feels this way, but I vote to take this topic somewhere else. Macromedia Forums is usually the best place to have the "I hate ColdFusion" debates. I, personally, stopped using the forums mainly because of these religious wars. We all know CF rocks, but it's not the be-all-end-all of web app development. Also, I consider this list a great resource for learning and sharing CF, and web, techniques. There has been nothing beneficial from this thread.

The price of a Windows 2003 server standard license is the same as a CFMX Pro license.

I don't have any proof that it is true and you don't appear to have any proof that it isn't. I certainly have enough personal experience of working with ColdFusion to know that 10 clustered servers is an exceptionally large site with a *lot* of traffic. One would hope that any company that has that much traffic has a good reason to be paying the costs associated with running and maintaining a site of that size.

I think that the problem with some of these is that you risk increasing CF's complexity to the point where you might as well just use Java or ASP.NET. CFML is typeless because HTML forms are typeless. CFML doesn't understand null because it doesn't exist within HTML. I think that for the rest of these things, if you're advanced enough to want to do them you can step outside of CFML and write Java code to do these things. To the degree that these things could be added without sacrificing the simplicity of CFML, I'd certainly agree with you.

In this case, through the use of either hacks or conditional comments, it doesn't have to be as limiting. Your argument supports simplifying backwards compatibility, not simply supporting it. Conditional comments alone, provides full support for backwards compatibility in IE to the point that quirks mode does. Conversely, hacks are just another means to keep things simple without loosing the advances made in IE 6. They may break in the future, but that heavily depends on the hack. >> Mozilla and Firefox, which don't suffer from many of these problems. > Actually, they do suffer from the same problems.

Issues in NN 4.0 are easily handled without forcing a modern browser to perform as an outdated, less than entirely functional (broken?) implementation. Depending on your needs, you could simply serve NN 4 an unstyled document. Alternatively, you can use the @import method to hide CSS as necessary. In either case you are getting the most out of modern browsers, while still serving a usable document to older browsers. If you need full blown support for NN 4, then you should base all of your CSS and markup on that browser's capability. > By invoking quirks mode, you have to do very little to work around box model > issues.

If you avoid the problem altogether, as you have in the example you provided, there's no need for a hack or any other work around. When you can't avoid the broken box model or choose to use more semantic markup within your document, IE 6 in quirks mode will break the box model just like IE 5 does. I don't see how this solves anything other than allowing you to treat all versions of IE 5+ the same in your stylesheets. On a typical site I may only use a hack or a conditional 3 or 4 times... the true number depends on the design and how I approach it. Often times I can avoid it completely, but when it pops up, I simply fix it. > I agree. However, my point is that I've never had to use any of those hacks. > Using a combination of quirks modes and the conditional comment behavior, > you can avoid the necessity for those hacks.

You can do the exact same thing without forcing IE into quirks mode... That is exactly the point I was trying to make. Rather than create a conditional for IE 5+ you create one specifically for IE 5.x, while IE 6 continues to use the correct width settings in your master stylesheet. The only benefit forcing quirks mode offers is that you can address any IE 5+ shortcoming in a single "all-ie" stylesheet. > You're exploiting bugs and undocumented behaviors.

Perhaps, but if they are, do you really think they're so cost-conscious about the price of CF server licensing if they're willing to pay for Windows licensing without batting an eye? I like Windows as much as the next guy, but when I provision a server with Windows, I'm paying for something that has a free competitor, just like when I buy CF. Unless you're doing something specific with Windows integration - using Active Directory for IIS authentication for example - how do you justify the cost of purchasing Windows? The same arguments here would apply to justifying the cost of purchasing CF, in my opinion. If it makes your job easier, it's typically worth the cost. If not, it isn't.

> Let's say I have a website I want to cluster on 10 servers.

If you're myopic enough to look at that as a valid comparison then you really SHOULD move to .NET. Macromedia is NOT Microsoft. ColdFusion cannot be free at that level. Microsoft sells (rather expensive) servers and supporting tools (SQL Server, Exchange, etc) by taking a hit on .NET. How would MM recoup the massive costs of development for giving away CF? If you think that statement "proves" some point, so be it. But remember also that this argument is hardly new: the same was said (repeatedly) when ASP was free and CF cost money (and compared to today both sucked). CF not only continued to seel, but thrived. It continues to thrive. > Also, no matter what way you cut it, CF Enterprise is quite expensive. CF Enterprise is a god-damn, freakin' bargain. For $5,000 (less actually, with partner discounts) I can cap a $70,000 WebSpere installation and saving 10 times that in development costs. For those ten servers (let's assume IBM blades running AIX and WebSphere) the total cost of installation and software runs quickly into the million dollar range. ColdFusion is an afterthought. This is assuming that any entprise would actually build an application like that... but most won't. If an application needed 10 clustered application servers you're also probably looking at least 5-10 clustered presentation servers. Perhaps a few SSL accelerators. Maybe a Local-Director or Site Selector out in front. The infrastructure costs alone can top 10 million. Want a Database? Oracle and its associated infrastructure will probably add at least another 2 million. Content Managment? Expect to throw at least a million at Vignette (and it's associated consultants) or a competator. Now throw in what we must assume to be a significant development, testing and management effort. Double your infrastructure costs at least. So, does CF add to this cost? Yes! Does it pay for itself in time savings? Most happy users will give a resounding yes! The simple fact remains that it's not applicable to every project and to every developer. There are also projects where the right developer with the wrong tool will cost you more than anything else. But another simple fact remains: CF is still going strong. The people using it are not all idiots unable to see the great glowing orb of truth over the hill.

hi there. i need to remove all carriage returns and white space from the contents of a cfsavecontent. one problem. however, there are some *good* #Chr(13)##Chr(10)# that i want to keep. so, what i was thinking, is to put something like #Chr(0)# at each *good* spot then after i replace all cf+lf and white space, ill drop #Chr(13)##Chr(10)# where i find all #chr(0)#'s although this doesnt seem to be too non-kludgy... so, any idea how i can remove all crappy whitespace and cr+lf from a cfsavecontent's value? all of this will end up in a csv file, which explains why i need all the crap removed.. thanks! -- tony Tony Weeg macromedia certified coldfusion mx developer email: tonyweeg [at] gmail [dot] com blog: http://www.revolutionwebdesign.com/blog/ cool tool: http://www.antiwrap.com ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - RUWebby http://www.ruwebby.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187462 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Again, if you're buying servers already it seems like CF is small cost to incur in comparison - but that depends on the servers you're buying I suppose. Server management costs for a year will dwarf the CF licensing cost - even if you go cheap figure (at least) $50 per hour of sitting in front of that server - that time adds up tremendously. But if you can't afford it (and if the free edition of Blue Dragon isn't applicable) then you'll obviously have to look for different technology. But in my experience that generally always costs more in the long run for any real application. >Finally, we have some plans for next year to setup a small CF hosting >company in Turkey :) (Any suggestions to setup a CF hosting company are >welcome) This will help us to continue with CF.

Re: CFDUMP var=variables shows custom functions?
Could always change your dump function, to loop through the variables scope and do an isCustomFunction() check on each key if it is then remove that key form teh variables, if not leave it there. Then do teh dump function. Since it only happens when you get an error, it shouldnt take too much processesing, and you would not have to change yer code too much On Mon, 13 Dec 2004 13:32:32 -0600, Dawson, Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Copy them to the request or another scope, then delete their reference > in the variables scope. > > Something like: > > > > > I'm not sure if this will work exactly as I have written it, however. > > One other solution is to store all of your page variables in a struct. > Then, you can dump only that struct and ignore all other > variables-scoped variables. > > M!ke > > > > -Original Message- > From: Damien McKenna [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, December 13, 2004 1:10 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: CFDUMP var=variables shows custom functions? > > I have an error tracker on my code that emails me a dump of just about > everything.
