re: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
yes now i can see where you'd want to use dhtml over flash (kidding).
How come this info was "bypassed" or "left out" during that argument?

Subject: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Scott,
I think there are not many people on this list working extensively with
JavaScript in such areas :) I do a lot so you're lucky ;)
IE uses a garbage collector, commonly known as mark n sweep. One aspect
of these types of garbage collectors is that they don't collect data
which has any type of unknown reference to it. Unknown reference? Yes,
references between JavaScript objects and DOM objects are unknown to the
browser, resulting in circular reference chains. These are the types of
references resulting in allocated memory being kept. For performance
reasons the DOM nodes are only freed up when closing the browser.
Don't be fooled by other browsers, Mozilla/FireFox browsers also leak,
in the case of Google Gmaps as twice as bad as IE.
To overcome this you have to do memory management yourself. Implementing
dispose methods, cleaning up all references by hand, attaching onunload
handlers, etc. etc. this requires at least intermediate knowledge of
JavaScript. When using ActiveX (MSXML) / XMLHttpRequest you will always
suffer from a small memory leak, but that isn't really an issue because
the leaks are so small they don't cause any trouble at all.
50MB for an IEXPLORE process is nothing, and if they truly like to
invest time and money in such a topic I would definitely define an
agreement with them stating that the chances on memory footprint
improvement are actually very low and you cannot held responsible for
loss of investment.
If you'd like more information, contact me of the list, I am using MSN
with [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This for example leaks 400kb per refresh here, and shows circular
reference chains.
function Car() {
var div = document.createElement('div');
div.appendChild(document.createTextNode('test'));
this.el = document.body.appendChild(div);
this.el.onmouseover = function() {
this.style.backgroundColor = '#f0f0f0';
}
this.el.onmouseout = function() {
this.style.backgroundColor = 'white';
}
}
window.onload = function() {
for(var i=0; i<200; i++) {
new Car();
}
}

Subject: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Basically, most would know about the Internet Explorer Memory leak in
terms of Garbage Collection not being able to read our Development
minds.
My question is, has anyone here actually experienced bad memory leaks?
in that have you build an application using massive amounts of DHTML -
only 3 months down the track you've had to come back and rebuild stuff
simply because it became a memory hog?
I ask this as despite the know bug in IE (argueably it could be
considered developer bad foreplay but anyway) even if an application
after an hours use steals 50mb of RAM (now that would have to be a
pretty darn big app mind you) surely that wouldn't affect todays
computers? as in most would probably fair to say have around 512mb of
Ram at minimum?
Also taking into account most Tools can ask upward to 90mb to run
anyway (ie java based ones that is).

RE: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
You stated you ALWAYS need to use Trim functionality. That is just not true. In essence, I think a developer should keep his claws from the entered content unless absolutely necessary. There are situations where you for example submit a textarea value. If the entered data contained spaces being affected by trim, but were entered on purpose.

RE: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
Username, yes (in fact I reject anything that doesn't match alphanumeric or the underscore) but if you trim a password (or make any other sort of edit) and they used a space (or any other edited character) they'll never be able to log in. You'd have to reject the password instead and get them to try again. In general, every character you allow in a password enhances security by adding to potential complexity of the password. -Original Message- From: dave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 8 March 2005 4:28 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?

RE: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Dave, There is no massive leak if you clean up before you leave the room. Like any other language, if you don't close connections, clean up what you have used and start programming without keeping memory in mind you might end up with problems. And you know what? Flash MX also is sensitive for circular references. Use a scope chain and memory is never released (Timothée Groleau wrote about it) until you write code to clean those references. Does this make Flash MX instantly unsuitable. Ofcourse not, just by the fact the amount of memory loss isn't really a big deal. Like that 50kb loss per total refresh is going to affect you're application instantly.

RE: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
I believe that it was brought up by dick that flash has some leak and possibly some big overhead (at least on a mac) but it wasn't brought up about dhtml is all i am saying. I think you shoulda just said so when it was disclosed that flash had it and you know dhtml has it but you don't say anything really doesn't help anyone out. Say you are looking at either of 2 cars to buy and one guy says yeah the air don't work so good on real hot days and you mention that to the seller of the other car but he doesn't say anything even though he knows his car does the same thing. So you invest in the 2nd car only to find out that its probably is worse then the first car, how do you feel? Would you feel taken? It's ok to mention the negative things as well as the positive ones. Maybe the leak isn't too big but for someone to get into it and get it done to find out later that it leaks and then they gotta go learn some more is really a PITA. Since I have holdings in a real estate company and previously was a top producer I know this situation very well, in real estate it's called "disclosure". The difference between real estate and web work is that if you don't disclose something like that in real estate you get your ass sued off. In web work you just get a "sorry". You are pretty good at pointing out all the negative things so i am kinda shocked you withheld that.

Re: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Micha, I'm at a crossroads, in that I typically defensive code when in DHTML (or any language which has auto-garbage collection enabled) - yet i'm concerned its an un-needed amount of work... ie reminds me of writing 115 lines of code to print "hello world" - sure its Zen powerd to the 10th degree - yet seems like i over did the task. I guess what i was asking is that what kind of application or if any out there that are being used suffer from this leak issue? and is it really an issue or like you stated with flash, happens but really not many notice only us perfectionists ;) On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 10:14:30 +0100, Micha Schopman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dave, > > There is no massive leak if you clean up before you leave the room.

lil flash form trick

RE: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Scott, There is not a specific type of application, it is more the use of leveraging DOM in combination with JavaScript. I showed you a small teaser from an upcoming CMS, using a rich interface. That interface is build up with JavaScript. Each menu, treeview, and table consists out of OO JS, which provides sorting, drag n drop, on demand loading, single paged interface, etc, etc. Then we also have a layered presentation model, also entirely based on Javascript, with ui persistency layers, reusable scripting etc. In general this interface is about 85% javascript and only 15% initial XHTML markup code. Even though a full refresh only leaks 50kb, an amount which is very normal regarding references to DOM. Will you notice this in terms of speed of the application, NO. Garbage collection is always a topic, whether you use Java, JavaScript, .NET, Actionscript; The way memory is released, if you have closed database connections, or methods of optimizing memory usage too prevent long and painful GC flushes. Managed languages never guarantee optimal use and release of memory. In theory they should, but in practice that is not reachable because there are too many complex parameters involved.

Does that have DHTML unload techniques and what not in place or did you just simply leave it at the basics (ie tmpObj = null etc) Is that CMS Open Source btw?

Re: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Well, I don't know whats taken place as i only jump in / out of this list when it suites me (sorry) but, the other day on another CF List (CFAussie) I actually got in trouble for mentioning information that i thought was not obvious to some, thus i assumed resulting in a thread-match-2005. Point i'm making is that sometimes we folk get complacent when on mailing lists and assume others are up to speed on certain topics but sadly in some cases they aren't especially those who passively participate in open forum discussions so that they may learn. That being said, there is no such thing as a dumb question, only dumb teachers/pupils (ie those who mock people for asking dumb questions = dumb and those who don't ask a question on something = dumb).. I mean that also in a non-offensive manner too, just stating its better to ask as in the end you'll be smarter for it.

I think your concept of how cftransaction works is faulty. The way this is set up it is not keeping 2 Select max(acctno) happening prior to inserting a new record.

RE: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Scott,
Yes it has all unload techniques necessary. I must use them also. I once
did a test and it showed 3 MB increments on each refresh if I didn't
utilize manual memory management.
Disposition could be done by attaching handlers or by invoking dispose
methods on a specific action.
For ex:
var self = this;
this._onunload = function(){self.dispose()};
if(document.addEventListener) {
window.addEventListener("unload",this._onunload,false ); // Moz
}else if(window.attachEvent) {
window.attachEvent("onunload",this._onunload); // IE
}
obj.prototype.dispose = function(){}
The product will become open source, but is not ready yet. It'll take a
couple of months before everything is tested, tuned and documented.

Yeah, i've noticed it on and off, sometimes with Coldfusion it can be a pain - ie we can delete an objects key reference but not the actual object itself (there is a way to do this using java but Sean & Co have highly recommended not to do that hehe). I guess in the end, you could write defensive DHTML until you're satisified that the memory is managed yet : - what are teh chances of a user leaving the same browser instance open for post 50mb anyway? realistically if a user were using the same IE session for say 4-8 hours? even then a typical application would really have to be pushing it to go past 50mb? - what are we doing in the end? in that i've not yet seen some actual live - in the wild - applications that have cried a foul due to Memory Leak issues? I'm yet to be convinced it is an actual wide-spread problem? (I am easily convinced too) - IE 7 is on the horizon, while its probably years away from actual takeups - yet i personally wonder as to constricting the development to using var x = y, x.dosomething, x = null & unload style tricks / hacks around the bug really worthwhile post IE 6? - I'm really yet to even see FireFox suck the memory down with a DHTML app, and will be flawed to see that happen ... I present these points not as a forced opinion down all throats, more as of a "this is whats nagging away at me for the cons of memory leak management in JS - please feel free to refute / shoot down as i hate that feeling like i'm about to pioneer something or take a technical leap of faith (Not saying i'm the first but hopefully you get my meaning) Newho - bed time. -- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.mossyblog.com ~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:197810 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
SES urls, cgi.path_info, cgi.request_uri, CF6 and CF7
Moving from CF6.1 to CF7 on IIS6, and i've noticed that the cgi.path_info variable is reported slightly differently when using SES type URLs. In previous versions of CF, the cgi.path_info always included the, er, path info, whether SES variables were apended or not.: URL: example.com/sumdir/index.cfm?foo=bar CF6 cgi.path_info: /sumdir/index.cfm CF7 cgi.path_info: /sumdir/index.cfm URL: example.com/sumdir/index.cfm/foo/bar CF6 cgi.path_info: /sumdir/index.cfm/foo/bar CF7 cgi.path_info: /foo/bar The SESconverter.cfm from fusium.com still works in CF7 since it tests for the presence of cgi.request_uri, which is present in both CF6 and CF7 on IIS6, and appears the same as the pre-CF7 cgi.path_info. So it looks like i'm going to have to change all references from cgi.path_info to cgi.request_uri. Strange thing about cgi.request_uri is that its not present if you dump the cgi scope, but it is there if you reference it directly, both in IIS6 and apache2. How come its not in cgi structure when dumped, but is there when referenced? Is cgi.request_uri a more "standard" cgi variable? And is it "safe" to use? (not showing in the cgi dump makes me a little cautious) Cheers Bert ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

All I have to say is this: There are rules for passwords, and "no spaces" be one of mine.

Re: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
dave wrote: > You are pretty good at pointing out all the negative things so i am > kinda shocked you withheld that. Dave, you really are overestimating the whole impact of this. The problem only really occurs when you're using closures that directly or indirectly hold on to references to native objects, creating circular references outside of the scope of the garbage collector. It's not actually that big a deal. I'd even be possible for the browser to avoid this problem altogether if a single memory allocator was used by both the ECMAScript engine and the rest of the browser, though this isn't feasible in some. Anyway, this problem is Memory Management 101. You can have memory leaks with any language. Java has them, so does ColdFusion (pre and post MX), I've noticed them with O'Caml (albeit not as much for some reason), Lua, and Python, and a host of others.

Re: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
Tony, I've messed with this, but not for a long, long time... since the CF5 days, because the tags never seemed to work as expected. I'd recommend you actually try something like this: .code here Be sure to test, but if I understand the concept correctly (which I do ;) ) this should be a good start in the right direction. It the very least, it's got me thinking to start using cftransaction more consistently in my apps.

Re: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
My personal preference would be to make a Store procedure that does it... It would follow the same basic concept as you already have only instead of it being written in CF it would be in SQL. Transaction serializable would be a good idea too.

RE: CFC and Flash datagrid
The easiest way is to use Flash Remoting. With Flash Remoting you can just
return the query or an Array of structs, from your CFC. And you would bind
the grid's dataprovider to the result returned from flash remoting.

Subject: CFC and Flash datagrid
I've got a small temp flash project with nothing more than a datagrid in it.
The plan was to have a CF webservices send an array to flash to populate the
grid but I'll be damned if I can figure out how.
My grid has an instance name of my_grid.
If I hardcode this into flash, it populates the grid.
var
thedata:Array=[{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",County:"Autauga"},{State:"Alabama";
,Abbr:"AL",County:"Baldwin"},{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",County:"Barbour"}];
my_grid.dataProvider=thedata;
it spits out 3 columns with 3 rows of data perfectly.
I have all the data in a database and built a cfc to return an array with
access="remote" but I had no luck getting it into flash.
(I get the expected results when I visit http://mysite.com/ws.cfc?wdsl)
So I tried loadVariables() and put the same data into a txt file.
&thedata:Array=[{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",County:"Autauga"},{State:"Alabama
",Abbr:"AL",County:"Baldwin"},{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",County:"Barbour"}];
&
Nothing
&thedata
=[{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",County:"Autauga"},{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",Co
unty:"Baldwin"},{State:"Alabama",Abbr:"AL",County:"Barbour"}];&
Nothing again...
How would I get the same results dynamically from CF? At this point, I don't
care if it's a cfc or not. I'd just like to see something else happen!
I'm running a default install of Flash MX 2004 Pro and all of the examples
and tutorials I've found seem to be a little outdated.
Thanks.

Re: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
Interesting... I think I all-too-often assume someone's using the dame DB design paramters as I do, and I completely missed this until you said something, Jochem. I always, always, always set the first column in my table to primary key, identity, and often (but NOT always) a clustered index. I read right past the "I have a duplicate" part... and making the column an ID or using a UNIQUE constraint would have prevented the second record from occurring at all. Good catch.

RE: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Scott, A small group of developers use this technology for quite some years, but it needed some examples from a larger company as Google to fire up the interest. I see a great future for DOMScript implementations. Licensing based on asp basis becomes more popular and has proven lower total costs of ownership to organizations. More larger companies create web interfaces for their flagship products or have entirely based their products on web interface. Examples in only the CRM market, SuperOffice, Microsoft CRM, Siebel OnDemand, and SalesForce. Once interfaces start to become more complex, the so called Ajax/SPI methods jump in, and we get an whole new range of web applications. I strongly believe in the current situation that XHTML+CSS+SVG+DOMScript is the best possible candidate for complex web user interfaces, because of it's performance capabilities and this will increase once the new specifications for JavaScript are implemented in browsers (with classes, interfaces, constructors, getters/setters, etc). Once the new flash player comes out, it could change, but for now the Flash player isn't capable of handling really complex rich interfaces with a lot of information and options. Too bad, it has the language to handle complex logic. We tried converting an interface, but we soon reached the limit of what Flash can handle. It looked nice, with all the antialiasing, but it didn't provide the power we needed.

Re: OT: Memory Leak in Browsers?
Just a short example of the cause:
function Car(){
this.type = 'Volkswagen Touraeq V12 Diesel'
// just love this car.. sorry..
this.draw();
}
Car.prototype = {
draw : function(){
this.element = document.createElement('A');
}
}
var simsalabim = new Car();
This creates a JavaScript object, respectively "Car". This is maintained
in the Javascript GC.
Then in the draw method the element A is created, respectively a DOM
object. This is maintained in the browser GC.
Once you remove the object Car, the Javascript GC releases the Car
object from memory. But the A element in the browser GC is still
active/referenced. This part of the deal is never released unless you
set the reference to null.
Same happens in the other way, once you remove the element A from the
page with removeChild, the Car object still exists, and this.element
still holds a reference to that A element despite it does not exist.
Both GC's don't communicate with each other, they don't know about each
other either.
That is what is causing memory management issues. Is this a bit clear?
:) You might understand this starts out simple, but increases in
complexity on larger complex applications.

Re: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
Why serializable instead of repeatable_read?
OK, serializable then... According to the BOL, the only benefit of
serializable over repeatable_read is the prevention of phantoms, and I
can see that applying to this situation.
As far as sprocs are concerned... it's probably a fine idea, although
I've been leaning away from stored procedures in favor of CFQUERY
using cfqueryparam. I've got friends at the CFUG that have tested and
found that it's actually faster than sprocs, keeps the entire process
within the application, and doesn't tax the DBA's patience during the
development process. ;)
I'd rather, at this point, become an expert on CFTRANSACTION than
spend much more time becoming more of an expert on SQL. I never wanted
to be a DBA anyway. :) The 3 reasons I started using sprocs were: 1)
improved performance (negated by cfqueryparam, caching), 2) improved
encapsulation (negated by CFCs and improved DB performance in CFMX),
and 3) offloading processing from CF to SQL Server (negated by the
move to CFMX 6.1, improved hardware availability, and "other
factors"). I was looking for improved performance, for sure... but
what I really wanted was intelligent calls to the DB to do things like
analyze an input param, select data from 2 of the 3 user tables in
pairs, either from tbl_user and tbl_login or tbl_staff and tbl_login,
and return a pair of resultsets that would support my next round of
conditional logic all in one call to the DB.
It works, but I found it to be much less elegant than I expected. I'm
sure partly because I'm not a T-SQL developer, so I didn't make a
perfect job of it... but some of it is the nature of the beast. T-SQL
has limitations, and I believe that as I refactor the site and
continue to develop it that I'll be able to define much MORE elegant
ways of doing the same thing in CF. Starting with refining the
database design... because the tbl_login+tbl_{user_type} did NOT work
out as well as I'd hoped. Most annoying.
Anyway... that got long. I hope it didn't end up confusing.
Laterz,
J

Supported are IE5.5 and higher, Mozilla and FireFox, and according to specifications; Safari 1.2. Opera 8 might also be supported in the future but it has some very nasty bugs with the use of Iframes in combination with zIndex, and the use of oncontextmenu. Opera is not yet ready for these applications. Support currently depends on the availability of xmlHttpRequest / MSXML and standards.

RE: cfc best practices
One common method is the domain name methodology.
So, for example, if you get Raymond's Blog CFC, it will typically live under
:\site\org\camden
And be called like so:
CreateObject("component","org.camden.Blog") or something like that.
However, frameworks may impose their own methodology, which is no worse, and
this could be adapted as well.
:\site\model\org\camden for MachII
And would be called like so:
CreateObject("component","model.org.camden.Blog")

Can somebody give me some cfc best practices? I'm new to them and I
want to get started on the right foot. One thing that is really
bothering me is how to organize my CFCs and where to put them.
I've searched the web but I'm still not satisfied with every things I've
found.

Re: CFC and Flash datagrid
I would definately recommend the array of structs method of returning query information to a Remoting component. I have yet to be able to get a rearrange fields binding to work on a Remoting call that returns a query object. Banged my head against a wall for two days fiddling with it...

You typically restore a backup file and then apply all the intervening transaction logs since the backup was made to restore your database. That said, you could consider getting Lumigent's log explorer, which can read and selectively apply transaction logs to a database.

RE: Password Rules - Was: RE: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
I've thought this logic through many times and my personal opinion is that it comes down to support. If my DB and programming language can handle the weird characters, why make them "illegal"? Back in the days when the systems couldn't handle certain characters, I could understand the restraints, but now, if you're using a good DB and language, it seems the only limitations you really need to put on usernames and passwords is length (based on the field in the DB and any security rules you'd like to enforce (must contain a letter, number and symbol, etc.). Now, my thought is that's all that you need to do IN THEORY. If someone can type it in, let it be. However, I do realize that people may accidentally type in incorrect information when they register their username or password and then it becomes a support issue. However, if you do duplicate fields where people have to retype information, that will tend to decrease the number of mistakes that happen. This is just my opinion and I figured I'd share and see if anyone else has comments.

Re: Password Rules - Was: RE: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
For usernames, I usually only allow alphanumerics, constrain the length, and treat them case insensitively. No spaces, no punctuation, no 200-char strings. It just makes things easier. Passwords, however, are an open game. Anything you can cram in the form fields, you can use. And your database's support should be irrelevant, because you shouldn't be storing plaintext passwords anyway. You should always hash them, and for all but the simplest apps, should salt the hash. cheers, barneyb On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 10:50:41 -0500, Burns, John D <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've thought this logic through many times and my personal opinion is > that it comes down to support.

Reminds me of something I built before I learned about
normalization. These days I build most things to third normal form
with foreign-key constraints to ensure data integrity is maintained...
and I wish it were more popular... I've worked on several applications
that have used setups similar to what you're describing ... at an
education company, tLogin along with tStudent, tParent, tTeacher,
tStaff (or similar I don't remember for certain what it was).
Oh the agony of unions... Not that unions don't have their place, but
this wasn't it. Would have been so much easier to have just had a
tUser and tRole table, put the login credentials in tUser table --
even if you didn't associate users to roles with a many-to-many
cross-reference table.
The past couple weeks I've been working pretty hard on a rebuild of
the onTap framework's security suite (Members onTap) to eliminate some
structural anomolies in CF rather than in the database. The data
elements aren't changing much. It's still many-to-many associating
between members, roles and permissions -- but the last version had
members and security in separate plugins, it lacked built-in roles for
"public access" and "everyone" (all authenticated members), it didn't
have any timezone data and wasn't i18n (neither was the framework) and
it lacked some common member-management features (read preferences,
for instance image urls). Several of the features in the new version
(profiles and preferences primarily) are being refactored into the
security suite after having been written separately into the forum
plugin. Plus I'm making some improvements to the UI while I'm at it --
organizing the member form with a cardstack, displaying input for the
cross-reference associations as swapboxes instead of simple multiple
select-boxes, organizing the installer with a tabset (much more
intuitive than the basic/advanced button in the previous version).
Anyway, I'm getting off on a tangent. :) Was just thinking about the
subject of refactoring and reminded of some data-normalization horror
stories I had on my back-shelf. :)

RE: Password Rules - Was: RE: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
Right, I agree Barney. I always hash, but I just wanted to make a point that if your system (DB, programming language, OS, etc) support it, we shouldn't feel the need to restrict stuff just because that's always how we thought of passwords. I agree with the username insensitivity and limitations as well. However, most of my systems, I build it so that the username can be an email address or username so that the customer may choose to have the usernames be email addresses or they may want a separate username.

You should always hash them, and for all but the simplest apps, should salt the hash. cheers, barneyb On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 10:50:41 -0500, Burns, John D <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've thought this logic through many times and my personal opinion is > that it comes down to support.

Push Information to Users Across Intranets
Hi All, I've got an idea that I would like to see what'ya all think about. I have a need to publish some information across my Intranets. I was thinking about a message center where the message center pod would read from a global RSS file and display information as needed. However I would like to push that information to users as a popup or something. I'm a little hesitant to force a user to see a popup while they may be working on say a contact record. So I was thinking of creating a MSN like message window that will popup in the right corner of their screen. A 5x5 pixel flash window will run a webservice that reads from the feeds per site at a set interval. The interval could be set by the user in their control pod. What are your thoughts, does anyone see anything wrong with something like this. Do you think they may find it annoying? ~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:197846 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: cftransaction... it wasnt safe?
Yeah, there's a funny story there. I once worked in LAN support, and we were in a massive migration... and by Massive I mean 45,000 computers across 12 locations in the Twin Cities. Part of the process was implementing new standards for Windows NT accounts. Our team lead put together a spreadsheet for a department... roughly 500 Windows login accounts. And, bizarrely, none of them worked. NONE. After several weeks and some seriously pissed off users, it was discovered that his spreadsheet had included an empty space at the end of the passwords... therefore all passwords were "password " and... well... it was ugly for a while. Eventually it got fixed, but it would have been nice to have a trim(password) for that particular situation. And *sigh* you have a point. Food for thought.

Make it so when they log in, it lists the subjects of the messages they need to read, with a button at the bottom of the page that lets them bypass and hit the main landing page.

If you're talking about the MSN like window it can be done, but first I'll have to buy a new Flash Projector then have an extra install right?

I wrote a C# browser for their Intranet's, I guess I can use that to do it, but I would like to keep the separation from the web and the browser, I guess I could still have the custom browser read from a webservice if their connected and go that way.

cisco load balancing across CF pages
I'm trying to set up two load-balanced web servers using Cisco Local Director 4.2.6, and CF 6.1 Standard Edition and IIS. Is there a way to set this up so the requests are sent to the web server with the best response time for ColdFusion pages, or at the very least that if CF dies on one server Cisco starts sending all requests to the other server? I know this is possible with Enterprise and ClusterCats, but I don't really want to go down that road. If it's not possible with Local Director and CF Standard, would it be possible with either: 1. Cisco Content Services Switch (CSS)? 2. Microsoft NLB instead of Cisco?

RE: Push Information to Users Across Intranets
Yeah, it's a great idea if I was using a Flash Application. However all of my stuff is accessed traditionally or via their Intranet desktop browser. My option without adding more complexity to the application with other plugins is to either you a C# component in the browser or DHTML since they can access it by the web also. I appreciate your information, it's a great idea with a Flash app. However I think the 5x5 pixel Flash that calls the DHTML is the way to implement it in my case. -Original Message- From: Connie DeCinko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 12:40 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Push Information to Users Across Intranets Similar idea.

FYI. It's not that hard to embed a flash movie in a C++ container and control is through FSCommand. Also, its more lightweight because you only need to include the functionality that you want.

FB4 n00b: XFAs include full URL?
I'm starting to learn Fusebox 4 (using John Beynon's excellent tutorials) and have come up with a question. Is there any way to make XFAs include the full URL, path and query string required, rather than simply use them as aliases for the bare fuseaction name? On my FB3 sites I prepend XFA's with the full (dynamically generated) hostname, "self" file, and all query strings required (one of our sites passes the custom session ID via the URL). I'm hoping to upgrade our sites to FB4 and would like to not have to rewrite everything to follow what I see (in the first few pagess of John's tutorial) as a less simple way of handling it. If there is no way to do this I suggest adding a boolean attribute to the XFA tag called "complete". There would then be two extra global fusebox variables, e.g. application.fusebox.xfaCompleteString for storing whatever you wanted to go before the XFA, and application.fusebox.xfaCompleteStringDefault which would be set to false or true, depending on whether you wanted your XFAs to be automatically prepended or not.

Re: FB4 n00b: XFAs include full URL?
The XFA is not a link, it's an abstract reference to another fuseaction in the application. Consequently it will never contain any extra information as you describe. However, what you propose can be easily synthesized by a supplmental 'self' variable: self = cgi.script_name; myself = cgi.script_name & "?#application.fusebox.fuseactionVariable#="; fullself = "http://www.mysite.com/#myself#";; then just use the appropriate variable when you create your link. click here I personally never use a 'self' or 'fullself' style variable, and so just name the 'myself' variable 'self', though from what I've seen, I'm in the minority. Most people use at least 'self' and 'myself' as separate variables. Another route to consider might be a custom tag that simply accepts an XFA and renders an A tag to the HTML stream. I've done this for SEF URLs, where the tag derefernce the XFA against an in-memory database to render a SEF link, rather than link containing the actual XFA. The new destination gets dereferenced back to the original XFA for a standard fusebox request when requested: About Us generates: About Us aboutUs.cfm (and all other such pages) contains: The sef:link tag is basically the 'aboutUs.cfm' template, but inverted. cheers, barneyb On Tue, 8 Mar 2005 13:34:31 -0500, Damien McKenna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm starting to learn Fusebox 4 (using John Beynon's excellent > tutorials) and have come up with a question. > > Is there any way to make XFAs include the full URL, path and query > string required, rather than simply use them as aliases for the bare > fuseaction name? > > On my FB3 sites I prepend XFA's with the full (dynamically generated) > hostname, "self" file, and all query strings required (one of our sites > passes the custom session ID via the URL).

Re: FB4 n00b: XFAs include full URL?
You'll probably get a better response if you ask this on the Fusebox forums. But I believe that the XFA is meant to be a placeholder for ONLY the fuseaction value itself (hence the name exit fuseaction): a href="#self#?fuseaction=#xfa.submit#" Since it appears that you are using XFAs in a way other than what was intended, I think it would be difficult to justify such a change (I haven't ever heard of anyone else doing it like that). Adding Fusebox memory variables, attributes, or tags to the XML grammar requires an really crucial reason to do so. But you're welcome to shoot an email to John Q if you want to try.

Form Field Length Issues
I'm working on a form to go with my shiny new CFC/Form Bean I just made. I have a matching database table with fields such as: firstName [varchar(30)], lastname [varchar(50)], birthDate [smalldatetime], etc. When I create my form fields, should I enforce a max limit or just control the size of the visible portion of the field? For example: Or My issue with controlling the maxlength of the field is what happens if the user enters some nasty characters such as "<" or ">"? When I display the form field, I use HTMLEditFormat() to ensure nothing bad happens when the data is displayed: Let's say the user typed in 30 characters and hit the max length of the form field. One, or more of those characters could be escaped by the HTMLEditFormat() function. Now, the length of the value is greater than 30 characters. Now what? I will have server-side validation of the data that will check for a valid length. So, if I have that, is it OK to leave out the maxlength attribute? I'm leaning that direction.

RE: cisco load balancing across CF pages
Yes. I am not sure about The Cisco Local Director, but with Cisco Content Services Switch I have it pull a file off each server every 15 seconds. The file has some CF coding in it (I have it read from a database). If the file is not pulled up in 3 consecutive attempts, the CSS will assume the server is down and not send traffic to it. Of course, using this example, my database could be the problem and the CSS will assume all servers will be down.
