Subject: RE: upgraded to cf7 no default document...

 I have tried to upgrade from CFMX 6.1 to CFMX 7 on IIS using the 
 approach Isaac is stating however after the installation it told me to

 consult the InstallLog.log where there were 4 errors


 CFusionMX\lib not found

 Cannot disable RDS

 JNDI Port 2920 for Server Coldfusion is not active

I'm a bit surprised to see JNDI listen port issues with 7 on Windows...
I've had some issues with this on my machine using 6.1 in the past,
although the cf7 installation even in beta seemed to have resolved it.
The disable RDS error isn't critical (you should be able to disable the
service manually after instalation), though the CFusionMX\lib not
found error could be bad... I'd have to know more about your
installation choices to guess about that particular error... Are you
installing into C:\CFusionMX (the default location) or some other path?
and what version of Windows / IIS are you using?
Those two bits of information might help some of us offer suggestions
(not terribly likely to be myself as I don't do a lot of installing, so
I don't deal with a lot of installation issues).

Extracting Data From a Webpage Using RegEx

2005-04-21 Thread oscar dim
Hello
I do need to extract some data off of certain page. I do this with CFHTTP. The 
variable returned as string object is:
Page = CFHTTP.FileContent

As mentioned in another thread but unfortunatelly not very easy to get working 
for my specific needs I think I'll have to use a regular expression to extract 
the values that I am after, this is the part that I'm not sure about at all.

All I have is the unique starting html tag 'td style=width:640px; 
valign=top class=hafas' and ending html tag 'td style=width:150px; 
valign=top class=posInformationen', too. All text and html between these 
two literals must be found, I need to 
extract ALL between these two tags...

I'm really not sure at all on how to get started on this, so any help 
would be appreciated. 
Regards. Oscar

Generating ADO Recordset from CF

2005-04-21 Thread Peter Shaw
Hi,

I am evaluating a nice 'graphical mapping' COM object from VDS Technologies,
ASPMAP3.0. Although clearly designed to work with ASP I have had some
success in porting the supplied example scripts to CFML. One particular
feature that I have not been able to access via ColdFusion is the plotting
of points from a database recordset.

The COM object expects to receive an ADO Recordset. Is there any way to
generate such a thing (or something that 'looks' the same) from CF?

Re: Generating ADO Recordset from CF

You could write a COM wrapper... sending a wddx packet to the wrapper,
then get the wrapper to convert the wddx packet to ADO, call the
mapping server then return that to CF...  Or alternatively create ADO
objects in CF and do it that way?

No worries, Ali... that's why some of us join these lists.

I'm interested to know, though, why you don't have your system either
use an internally regulated ID number (like an auto-increment
constraint on the column) or use something like a UUID that's
generated outside the database...

Having to do workarounds like this is kinda scary, eh?

get windows logon name

2005-04-21 Thread Stavros Tekes
Hi all,
I am trying to find a way to get the users name that he used to login to 
windows. 
I want to create an application that gets personalized according to the person 
that is using it. To do that I need to have the login name he used to logon 
windows. (I do not want to bother him with re-entering his credentials once 
again for just my app).

I have read about the CGI.auth_user but I am not sure this is the sollution. 
Will the user have to re-enter his credentials to access my application? (I 
realize that for CGI.auth_user to work the web server needs to supports user 
authentication but do I need to build a custom script for authentication or is 
it take automatically from the operating system, like a Single Sign On feature 
- which is what I am trying to do)

Thanks in advance

Stavros

RE: get windows logon name

2005-04-21 Thread Dawson, Michael
You need to use the NT challenge and response option.  However, this only works 
on NT-based OS like W2k and XP along with IE.  (I'm not sure if it works with 
non-IE browsers.)
 
With that enabled, cgi.auth_user will be populated with that value.
 
However, doing this makes your users less mobile.  If I want to log into the 
web site from your computer, you have to log off of the console and I 
have to log on.  I would rather be able to log on to a web site from any 
computer, or conversely, let anyone else log on to the web site from my 
computer while I'm still logged on to the console.
 
You can achieve single sign-ons using other methods that were recently 
discussed here.  Look for Domain Cookies as well.

2005-04-21 Thread Cutter (CF-Talk)
I'm not trying to start a long, runaway thread here. I just thought that 
this information from my latest Software Developer magazine 
e-newsletter was pertinent to many here. This excerpt is from an 
interview with Kevin Lynch, MM's chief software architect:

He called ColdFusion and J2EE “the core DNA of our company,” and 
indicated the upcoming takeover will not change anything for developers 
using those technologies. Noting that he could not discuss much due to 
the quiet period mandated by federal rules governing corporate 
acquisitions, Lynch said Macromedia’s recently released update to 
ColdFusion “was the best in at least five years, and that community is 
quite strong.”

 I've had some issues with this on my machine using 6.1 in

 The disable RDS error isn't critical (you should be able

 and what version of Windows / IIS are you using?
 Those two bits of information might help some of us offer

 I don't deal with a lot of installation issues).

RE: Site (not Server) - wide Error Handler

2005-04-21 Thread Mary Jo Sminkey
That's exactly what I needed! Much appreciated

Just be careful what you dump and send by email...for instance if you dump the 
form scope and run an online store, it could end up emailing credit card 
information. Not very secure! Same with session scope, may contain sensitive 
infomation. You might want to check Matt Robertson's tutorial on doing an error 
handler which has some good tips:

http://mysecretbase.com/Building_A_ColdFusion_Error_Handler.cfm

I based mine on his method of writing out a file, with some modifications, so 
that only a logged-in admin can access the file. I then email just the basic 
error diagnostics along with links to the full error report.

Re: get windows logon name

2005-04-21 Thread Tim Claremont
cgi.auth_user is what I use.

If an end user is operating someone else's computer under their login it is a 
security breach on the part of the computer owner and the operator. That is a 
people issue more than a technical issue.

I grab cgi.auth_user and compare that against a database table of permissions 
that I maintain. The end user never needs to log into my application because 
the permissions I have set up are dictated by cgi.auth_user. I don't need to 
maintain passwords for people because the network group takes care of that. All 
I am concerned with is that the end user is authenticated on the network.

So, in application.cfm, I grab cgi.auth_user and run it against a database 
table that contains a list of directories that person has access to. I then use 
CF to tell me what the current directory is. If there is a match, show the 
page. If there is NOT a match, CFLOCATION them off to an access request page.

It may seem like overkill to ask for cgi.auth_user on every page access, but it 
also keeps people from doing something like manually adding a variable to the 
end of an address string to override cgi.auth_user.

2005-04-21 Thread Burns, John D
I agree.  I like the list and I benefit from it and try to contribute as
much as possible.  However, if there was a fee involved, I would not
stick around.  I don't mind advertising at all though.  I can see the
complaints about the links in the archives and I understand the
reasoning for pulling the image-based ads in the emails.  I definitely
appreciate all that Mike does and hope he's able to recoup some money
for it but I'm not in a position to be able to fund that.  I like the
idea of the free community and as long as it stays that way, I'll be
here.

Instead of forcing people to pay to subscribe to the list, an alternative could 
be an advertising free list for a fee - $20 to $50 a year lets say, and a free, 
but supported by ads lists. That way if you're willing to suffer the ad links 
in the contents of the messages, you don't have to pay. But you can get rid of 
the ads by paying a small fee up front. Then after you log into the HOF site, 
the ad links in the message content would dissappear.

This way all views are accommodated.

I don't think Dave is concerned so much with seeing the links himself, but
of others seeing them and what content they link to.  It wouldn't matter if
you paid a thousand dollars a year to not see them; anyone ending up at the
archives that isn't a paying member would see them.  So that means the only
way to not have links in your posts would be to opt out of the list and not
post at all.

donations... if you donated any amount, that message was removed from
the emails... I donated $10 and that took care of that...

I honestly can't believe that people would drop off the list if a
small amount was required...

 Instead of forcing people to pay to subscribe to the list, an alternative 
 could be an advertising free list for a fee - $20 to $50 a year lets say, and 
 a free, but supported by ads lists. That way if you're willing to suffer the 
 ad links in the contents of the messages, you don't have to pay. But you can 
 get rid of the ads by paying a small fee up front. Then after you log into 
 the HOF site, the ad links in the message content would dissappear.
 
 This way all views are accommodated.

SQL Server Best Practices

2005-04-21 Thread Adam Howitt
I just realized that for some time I have been robotically using 
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
prior to my stored procedures (dervied from the microsoft standard stored 
procedure template) and
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
after them. I understand the implications of both these options on a piece 
of SQL but I realized I don't really understand the implications for stored 
procedures. There are two potential outcomes I can see but don't know which 
is true:
1. Setting them will bake these options into the compiled stored procedure 
such that they will override the database defaults or
2. Setting them means the stored procedure applies the options to the 
interpretation and compilation of the stored procedures but whenever the 
stored procedure executes it uses the database default.

The implications of this are rather large on a database with many stored 
procedures and it could make debugging a bear. 

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated,

Adam Howitt

No, I don't think that'll work. Typically, you use COUNT within your SELECT
clause. However, in this case, why not just remove it altogether and use the
RecordCount variable after you run the query?

So, $5 per month is more than you can afford?

Or, another way to look at it is: which can you afford
to lose more, $5 per month or the help of those on the

If they think efax is expensive...they won't like the alternatives ;-)

Get a fax server setup (which of course means multiple new fax lines will be

RE: translating websites

2005-04-21 Thread Andy Mcshane
I have done exactly this using XML. All of the English text that appears on my 
site is held within tables in a SQL database. I have a Coldfusion interface for 
these tables that allows access to this text for translating into any language 
that I choose. From this same interface I then generate XML files for each 
language using the following naming convention, English.xml, Spanish.xml, etc. 
In my coldfusion page, where I want to display the relevant text I place a call 
to a translate function which does a search of the XML file that I specify and 
returns the appropriate text. This means that I have only one Coldfusion page 
that can be seen in many different languages. It is a little more complex than 
I have stated here but this is one method to do it. My site is a multi-lingual 
site and I display the required text based on the language that a user 
specifies. The only drawback that I have so far found with this method is that 
you sometimes get your text display screwed up depending on the size of the 
translated text, but this is a very small problem indeed, but I would suggest 
XML as a good solution to your requirements.

yes you would. you can't count on machine translation unless you don't 
mind insulting or otherwise confusing your users.

the proper approach to this is to
- internationalize (i18n) your code
- then localize (l10n) it the locales (or languages) you want to 
support. you can think of this as skinning the app to a locale.

this might help you get started:

I'd be very, very careful of any machine translation into Spanish.  There is
actually many versions of Spanish as well, depending on where you are.  We
had an interpreter take a look at some text we ran through BableFish and
even though it was close, some of the meanings were off.

RE: wtf are those advertizing links in the text?

2005-04-21 Thread Rick Faircloth
Sounds good, except I would have to agree that the
ad links in the message are not a good idea...too little
control over links that could be presumed to come from
the author.  At least advertising to the right or below is
usually considered to be inserted and not a part of the
message.

Yes, I'd go for that...how about $25 per year for ad-free
messages or free list participation with advertising?

be an advertising free list for a fee - $20 to $50 a year lets say, and a free, 
but supported by ads lists. That way if you're willing to suffer the ad links

the ads by paying a small fee up front. Then after you log into the HOF site, 
the ad links in the message content would dissappear.

There are plenty of free sources of information out there that this very 
list offers. There is no way I'd pay to subscribe to a mailing list. Now if 
I were to find that I was greatly benifiting from it, I would make a 
donation to whoever maintained it. I have done donations in the past to 
things that offered me free help that I in turn benifited from in my work. 
Now if a place put in advertisement links for something I typed then I might 
think twice about putting postings there. I am on a car forum that does this 
and rarely post on it these days but my rare postings have nothing to do 
with their advertisements.

RE: wtf are those advertizing links in the text?

2005-04-21 Thread Calvin Ward
Keep in mind that while M.Dinowitz did a lot of great work in creating and
maintaining this list, a lot of the value comes from the contributors, some
of which don't garner much value from the list (from all appearances), and
provide a great deal more than they give.

You would be effectively asking these folks to pay to avoid advertising
while providing the value that you are talking about. 

Just something else to think about.

So, $5 per month is more than you can afford?

Or, another way to look at it is: which can you afford
to lose more, $5 per month or the help of those on the
list in your work?

If this is just an issue of principle, why do you insist
that you'll only participate in a free list?  Do you not expect

I agree. I like the list and I benefit from it and try to contribute as

stick around. I don't mind advertising at all though. I can see the
complaints about the links in the archives and I understand the
reasoning for pulling the image-based ads in the emails. I definitely
appreciate all that Mike does and hope he's able to recoup some money

RE: translating websites

2005-04-21 Thread Rick Faircloth
Hi, Andy...

I had a client ask about year ago if something like this could be done
without creating multiple sites, each in a different language.  I couldn't
think of a way to do it.

Seems like you've solved the problem nicely.

Would you mind sharing some of your code / files / techniques...perhaps
a small sample of how you do it?

Unfortunately, I know very little about using XML, although I've read some 
about it,
and haven't used it before.

Any insight you'd be willing to give would be much appreciated!

A first question would be...why would involving XML be helpful?  Why not just
have someone do that translations and put them into a database?

Thanks,

Rick

Subject: RE: translating websites 

I have done exactly this using XML. All of the English text that appears on my 
site is held within tables in a SQL database. I have a Coldfusion interface for 
these tables that allows access to this text for translating into any language 
that I choose. From this same interface I then generate XML files for each 
language using the following naming convention, English.xml, Spanish.xml, etc. 
In my coldfusion page, where I want to display the relevant text I place a call 
to a translate function which does a search of the XML file that I specify and 
returns the appropriate text. This means that I have only one Coldfusion page 
that can be seen in many different languages. It is a little more complex than 
I have stated here but this is one method to do it. My site is a multi-lingual 
site and I display the required text based on the language that a user 
specifies. The only drawback that I have so far found with this method is that 
you sometimes get your text display screwed up depending on the size of the 
translated text, but this is a very small problem indeed, but I would suggest 
XML as a good solution to your requirements.

RE: translating websites

While others have mentioned doing actual human translated documents and
storing them in a logical manner, if you are limited to machine translation
here are a couple resources:

AltaVista Babel Fish (free. integrated on your site)
http://www.altavista.com/help/free/free_searchbox_transl

Systran

Offers annual subscriptions with varying levels of features. Prices start at
$450/year for 1 European language and includes their logo and banner, 50,000
translations/year and that's it. For $810/year, you get more
translations/year and 50 custom terms. For a lot more money you get all 11
languages, to remove their banner, and more translations/year.
http://www.systransoft.com/products/online_services/systranlinks.html

WorldLingo

For just Spanish it starts at $40/month. That includes 1000 translations a
month with 500 words/translation, a bar with their logo and translated pages
opening in a frameset with their banner ad. They nickle and dime for
features like removing their logo, upping the amount of words/translation,
and things like in their advanced settings there's an extra $15 charge for
javascript support which still requires some effort to make it work.

2005-04-21 Thread Rick Faircloth
Is your unwillingness to pay a subscription based on the fact that
you feel like you don't benefit from the list?  Or that you give more
to the list than you take?

I can understand someone's reluctance to pay if really all they do
is give answers to others and don't get answers to questions.  But
if you ever get answers you really need why wouldn't you be willing
to help pay for the work that's done to bring you those answers?

And if there are so many other resources that are as good as this one,
then why participate in this one?  I would have to cut something out...
takes too long to go through all the mail!

And...for info's sake...what other resources can you point out that
I could use that are as rich with information, convenient, and have such
good participation?

Just trying to understand your perspective

RE: translating websites

2005-04-21 Thread Adkins, Randy
What I did was replaced all my DISPLAYED TEXT as variables
And have a file with all the variables setup for the given language.

Such as:
If the locale is Spanish, then it calls the es-es.cfm file with all
The Spanish Translations.

If the locale is English, then it calls the en-us.cfm file with all
The English Translations.

This way I maintain ONE website and 2 language files.

I don't know if CF has any native way to do this, but the company I work for is 
looking for a way to translate the website to Spanish.
Surely you wouldn't have to do a page for page translation?
If anyone has worked with doing this sort of stuff, let me know.

RE: wtf are those advertizing links in the text?

2005-04-21 Thread Rick Faircloth
Yes, that definitely something to consider...I'm more of a taker
than a giver...not by choice, but by not having many answers.

If I were a 99% giver, I'd be, perhaps, less inclined to pay a
subscription.  But if it were necessary to help the person running
the list, I still wouldn't balk at paying a $25-per-year subscription
fee.

Besides, if a participant in this list is smart enough to be a 99%-100%
giver, without taking anything of value, then they're smart enough to
be making plenty and not having to worry about $25 a year.

It just seems kind of petty for everyone to be balking at the idea of
giving Mike any money at all for something he does 24/7/365 to help
all of us and to help CF prosper...I just have a hard time understanding
such a selfish attitude...I mean, think about it $25 is far less than the
cost of a Forta WACK book, and as soon as it's purchased, it starts
becoming obsolete.  The list is always up-to-date, and even many times
ahead of its time and full of wisdom and experience...

Keep in mind that while M.Dinowitz did a lot of great work in creating and
maintaining this list, a lot of the value comes from the contributors, some
of which don't garner much value from the list (from all appearances), and
provide a great deal more than they give.

You would be effectively asking these folks to pay to avoid advertising
while providing the value that you are talking about. 

Just something else to think about.

So, $5 per month is more than you can afford?

Or, another way to look at it is: which can you afford
to lose more, $5 per month or the help of those on the

If this is just an issue of principle, why do you insist

I agree. I like the list and I benefit from it and try to contribute as
much as possible. However, if there was a fee involved, I would not
stick around. I don't mind advertising at all though. I can see the
complaints about the links in the archives and I understand the
reasoning for pulling the image-based ads in the emails. I definitely
appreciate all that Mike does and hope he's able to recoup some money
for it but I'm not in a position to be able to fund that. I like the

I would be forced to withdraw, and I imagine that lots of other people

simply wouldn't be able to justify the risk. And it's worth pointing out
that the list would be significantly less valuable if it loses the likes

Hi, Andy...

I had a client ask about year ago if something like this could be done without 
creating multiple sites, each in a different language.  I couldn't think of a 
way to do it.

Seems like you've solved the problem nicely.

Would you mind sharing some of your code / files / techniques...perhaps a small 
sample of how you do it?

Unfortunately, I know very little about using XML, although I've read some 
about it, and haven't used it before.

Any insight you'd be willing to give would be much appreciated!

A first question would be...why would involving XML be helpful?  Why not just 
have someone do that translations and put them into a database?

Thanks,

I have done exactly this using XML. All of the English text that appears on my

these tables that allows access to this text for translating into any language 
that I choose. From this same interface I then generate XML files for each 
language using the following naming convention, English.xml, Spanish.xml, etc. 
In my coldfusion page, where I want to display the relevant text I place a call 
to a translate function which does a search of the XML file that I specify and 
returns the appropriate text. This means that I have only one Coldfusion page 
that can be seen in many different languages. It is a little more complex than

2005-04-21 Thread Aaron Rouse
 Is your unwillingness to pay a subscription based on the fact that
 you feel like you don't benefit from the list? Or that you give more
 to the list than you take?

 I do not feel I benifit enough from this list to warrant paying to be on 
it. Matter of fact I am not 100% sure I have benifited from this list in 
quite sometime. I know the last couple of questions I posted I never got a 
complete answer from the list, and if I was paying to be on this list then I 
would start to get irritated if the answers were no better than I could get 
elsewhere or if they were lesser which is the case at times. 
 What exactly would someone be paying for? Are they just paying to be on a 
list because someone has a dedicated connection to the internet and setup a 
list manager on it? Are they paying because gurus are paid to be on the list 
and offer help to anyone? Are they paying because gurus are allowed on for 
free? 
 Charging at this point in time would simply encourage others to start their 
own lists and would de-centralize the user base.

I can understand someone's reluctance to pay if really all they do
 is give answers to others and don't get answers to questions. But
 if you ever get answers you really need why wouldn't you be willing
 to help pay for the work that's done to bring you those answers?

 
And if there are so many other resources that are as good as this one,
 then why participate in this one? I would have to cut something out...
 takes too long to go through all the mail!

 I do not go through all my email, I participate in many mailing lists and 
forums though. Sometimes asking questions, sometimes reading or sometimes 
just as a subscriber. 

And...for info's sake...what other resources can you point out that
 I could use that are as rich with information, convenient, and have such
 good participation?

 As an example, I asked a question on here about CFLDAP and the problems we 
were having with it. I did not get much response from this list, I asked the 
same question in IRC and got a very good response(I still have no solution 
though other than going back to CF5). Then there are existing contacts I 
have made over the years. I have numerous people I stay in touch with in IMs 
and emails. Local CFUGs usually have mailing lists that while maybe are not 
high trafficed they do tend to have highly skilled people on them willing to 
help. My primary contract is at a company that has an internal CF mailing 
list full of people willing to help.

First, never use drive mapping - use UNC paths instead.

As for getting the share to work - you need to configure the CF service to log 
in as a user with access rights to the share.  We have redundant, load-sharing 
servers that all utilize the same network DFS shares and it works great.

HTH,

 Hello,
 I'm moving are old cf server to a new server with CF 7.
 
 and on the old server they had a network share setup as F
 
 on the new server its W cause of the files and no problem there.  but 
 on the new server Cf is not seeing W as a local drive for doing

Yes I know they are not locale but was getting the idea across.

Besides, I gave my opinion and yes Java is another solution, just
Not the solution I selected.

kind of complex. why not one set of code where you substitute your

btw English/Spanish aren't really locales. just ask a yank and an ozzy

 I'd be very, very careful of any machine translation into Spanish.

Into ANY language. The English language is one of the most difficult for 
machine translation.

Hi, Andy...

I had a client ask about year ago if something like this could be done without 
creating multiple sites, each in a different language.  I couldn't think of a 
way to do it.

Seems like you've solved the problem nicely.

Would you mind sharing some of your code / files / techniques...perhaps a small 
sample of how you do it?

Unfortunately, I know very little about using XML, although I've read some 
about it, and haven't used it before.

Any insight you'd be willing to give would be much appreciated!

A first question would be...why would involving XML be helpful?  Why not just 
have someone do that translations and put them into a database?

Thanks,

Rick

Subject: RE: translating websites 

I have done exactly this using XML. All of the English text that appears on my 
site is held within tables in a SQL database. I have a Coldfusion interface for 
these tables that allows access to this text for translating into any language 
that I choose. From this same interface I then generate XML files for each 
language using the following naming convention, English.xml, Spanish.xml, etc. 
In my coldfusion page, where I want to display the relevant text I place a call 
to a translate function which does a search of the XML file that I specify and 
returns the appropriate text. This means that I have only one Coldfusion page 
that can be seen in many different languages. It is a little more complex than 
I have stated here but this is one method to do it. My site is a multi-lingual 
site and I display the required text based on the language that a user 
specifies. The only drawback that I have so far found with this method is that 
you sometimes get your text display screwed up depending on t  he size of the 
translated text, but this is a very small problem indeed, but I would suggest 
XML as a good solution to your requirements.

Is your unwillingness to pay a subscription based on the fact that
 you feel like you don't benefit from the list? Or that you give more
 to the list than you take?

I do not feel I benifit enough from this list to warrant paying to be on 
it. Matter of fact I am not 100% sure I have benifited from this list in 
quite sometime. I know the last couple of questions I posted I never got a 
complete answer from the list, and if I was paying to be on this list then I 
would start to get irritated if the answers were no better than I could get 
elsewhere or if they were lesser which is the case at times. 
What exactly would someone be paying for? Are they just paying to be on a 
list because someone has a dedicated connection to the internet and setup a 
list manager on it? Are they paying because gurus are paid to be on the list 
and offer help to anyone? Are they paying because gurus are allowed on for 
free? 
Charging at this point in time would simply encourage others to start their 
own lists and would de-centralize the user base.

I can understand someone's reluctance to pay if really all they do
 is give answers to others and don't get answers to questions. But
 if you ever get answers you really need why wouldn't you be willing
 to help pay for the work that's done to bring you those answers?

And if there are so many other resources that are as good as this one,
 then why participate in this one? I would have to cut something out...
 takes too long to go through all the mail!

I do not go through all my email, I participate in many mailing lists and 
forums though. Sometimes asking questions, sometimes reading or sometimes 
just as a subscriber. 

And...for info's sake...what other resources can you point out that
 I could use that are as rich with information, convenient, and have such
 good participation?

As an example, I asked a question on here about CFLDAP and the problems we 
were having with it. I did not get much response from this list, I asked the 
same question in IRC and got a very good response(I still have no solution 
though other than going back to CF5). Then there are existing contacts I 
have made over the years. I have numerous people I stay in touch with in IMs 
and emails. Local CFUGs usually have mailing lists that while maybe are not 
high trafficed they do tend to have highly skilled people on them willing to 
help. My primary contract is at a company that has an internal CF mailing 
list full of people willing to help.

What I did was replaced all my DISPLAYED TEXT as variables And have a file with 
all the variables setup for the given language.

Such as:
If the locale is Spanish, then it calls the es-es.cfm file with all The Spanish 
Translations.

If the locale is English, then it calls the en-us.cfm file with all The English 
Translations.

This way I maintain ONE website and 2 language files.

Hi, Andy...

I had a client ask about year ago if something like this could be done without 
creating multiple sites, each in a different language.  I couldn't think of a 
way to do it.

Seems like you've solved the problem nicely.

Would you mind sharing some of your code / files / techniques...perhaps a small 
sample of how you do it?

Unfortunately, I know very little about using XML, although I've read some 
about it, and haven't used it before.

Any insight you'd be willing to give would be much appreciated!

A first question would be...why would involving XML be helpful?  Why not just 
have someone do that translations and put them into a database?

Thanks,

Rick

Subject: RE: translating websites 

I have done exactly this using XML. All of the English text that appears on my 
site is held within tables in a SQL database. I have a Coldfusion interface for 
these tables that allows access to this text for translating into any language 
that I choose. From this same interface I then generate XML files for each 
language using the following naming convention, English.xml, Spanish.xml, etc. 
In my coldfusion page, where I want to display the relevant text I place a call 
to a translate function which does a search of the XML file that I specify and 
returns the appropriate text. This means that I have only one Coldfusion page 
that can be seen in many different languages. It is a little more complex than 
I have stated here but this is one method to do it. My site is a multi-lingual 
site and I display the required text based on the language that a user 
specifies. The only drawback that I have so far found with this method is that 
you sometimes get your text display screwed up depending on t he size of the 
translated text, but this is a very small problem indeed, but I would suggest 
XML as a good solution to your requirements.

Surely you wouldn't have to do a page for page translation?

Re: Send faxes usinf CF

2005-04-21 Thread Scott Stroz
Bryan,

The solution they are looking for is to use the Windows Faxing Service
on the production server.  Which means one phone line. One fax at a
time.

Any ideas on how to accomplish that?  If I can show it might not be
optimal, maybe they will go with efax (or other) after all.

excel data

2005-04-21 Thread Daniel Kessler
I have to read a few hundred rows of excel data into a database.  A 
record for each row.
I saw some CFCs that do this or at least read them into a list but 
I've not been able to get CFCs to work in our system so far and dunno 
why.

I'm looking for any thoughts on the process of doing this.  Do I load 
in a file, and read the contents, then parse the data or maybe 
list_to_Array and then bring it in through looped INSERTS?  That's my 
first impulse.  Am I close?  I'd like the data to be quickly in and 
setup.

I'm using Oracle and CF6.1

thanks.

ColdFusion App Documentation For Sys Admins

2005-04-21 Thread Mike Chabot
Does anyone have, or has anyone seen, a template or database for
documenting ColdFusion applications from a system administrator
standpoint? It would track elements such as which databases the
application needs, which network resources the application accesses,
security considerations, the primary contact for the application in
case there is a problem, etc.

Thank you,

Re: SPAM-LOW: Re: wtf are those advertizing links in the text?

2005-04-21 Thread Larry Lyons
Is your unwillingness to pay a subscription based on the fact that
 you feel like you don't benefit from the list? Or that you give more
 to the list than you take?

 I do not feel I benifit enough from this list to warrant paying to be on 
it. Matter of fact I am not 100% sure I have benifited from this list in 
quite sometime. I know the last couple of questions I posted I never got a 
complete answer from the list, and if I was paying to be on this list then I 
would start to get irritated if the answers were no better than I could get 
elsewhere or if they were lesser which is the case at times. 

If you do not think you're benefitting from this list then why continue to 
subscribe? I am sure that it would be no great disaster for the rest of us. The 
thing is that its also a two way street, you need to contribute as well as 
consume.

Re: Send faxes usinf CF

2005-04-21 Thread Bryan Stevenson
Depends what you charge ;-)

I haven't used the Windows Faxing Service beforebut I'd imagine you are 
looking at using CFEXECUTE in some way to hand off fax documents to the fax 
service.

So1 line...1 fax at a time when sending loads of faxes will be 
sloowand it will probably cost more for you to develop a custom 
solution instead of integrating with a service like efax (can you say custom 
tag).

Did you not see the word enough Perhaps you are reading a little too far 
into the words I pick. Or perhaps you can not understand that I feel I would 
need to gain a certain amount out of something that normally can be found 
free to then justify paying for it. 
 Anything offered on this list can be found elsewhere, maybe not in one 
centralized spot but still elsewhere. To go and charge for use of the list 
would very likely de-centralize information here since some would rather not 
pay. At that point what exactly would you be paying for?
 I may not contribute a lot to this list but I do know I contribute more 
than I ask of it. So really it would come down to if I paid to be here, I 
would be paying to answer a few questions here and there.
 So everyone who thinks it would be fine to pay admission for this list, how 
much have you donated over the years of using it?

 XML works just as fine. I did not decide to do a database table
 for the translations. Might have been better but it works just
 as good.

 Sounds good...but why the XML files? Why not just translate the text and put 
 the translated phrases / sentences / paragraphs into a database and call them 
 out according to specified language?

 What I did was replaced all my DISPLAYED TEXT as variables And have a file 
 with all the variables setup for the given language.
 
 Such as:
 If the locale is Spanish, then it calls the es-es.cfm file with all The 
 Spanish Translations.
 
 If the locale is English, then it calls the en-us.cfm file with all The 
 English Translations.
 
 This way I maintain ONE website and 2 language files.

 Hi, Andy...
 
 I had a client ask about year ago if something like this could be done 
 without creating multiple sites, each in a different language. I couldn't 
 think of a way to do it.
 
 Seems like you've solved the problem nicely.
 
 Would you mind sharing some of your code / files / techniques...perhaps a 
 small sample of how you do it?
 
 Unfortunately, I know very little about using XML, although I've read some 
 about it, and haven't used it before.
 
 Any insight you'd be willing to give would be much appreciated!
 
 A first question would be...why would involving XML be helpful? Why not just 
 have someone do that translations and put them into a database?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Rick

 I have done exactly this using XML. All of the English text that appears on 
 my site is held within tables in a SQL database. I have a Coldfusion 
 interface for these tables that allows access to this text for translating 
 into any language that I choose. From this same interface I then generate XML 
 files for each language using the following naming convention, English.xml, 
 Spanish.xml, etc. In my coldfusion page, where I want to display the relevant 
 text I place a call to a translate function which does a search of the XML 
 file that I specify and returns the appropriate text. This means that I have 
 only one Coldfusion page that can be seen in many different languages. It is 
 a little more complex than I have stated here but this is one method to do 
 it. My site is a multi-lingual site and I display the required text based on 
 the language that a user specifies. The only drawback that I have so far 
 found with this method is that you sometimes get your text display screwed up 
 depending on t he size of the translated text, but this is a very small 
 problem indeed, but I would suggest XML as a good solution to your 
 requirements.

One thing about this I would do differently would be use descriptive labels:

labels
helloHello/hello
/labels

and then a corresponding spanish one...

labels
helloHola/hello
/labels

So that the text in my code could read a bit clearer:

#labels.hello# #session.usernmae#,

Just as I prefer descriptive variable names :)

i did the same exact thing, but rather than do the
lookups/translations all the time, i do it once onApplicationStart
(using the new application.cfc) read the translations into memory, and
then whenever i need to display a label i make that call to the
application variable structure that is the locale the user has
selected.

and just like andy, i have an english.xml and a spanish.xml, and could
add any others to the mix.

and rick...
its as simple for me as...

labels
oneHello/one
/labels

and then a corresponding spanish one...

labels
oneHola/one
/labels

The point is that you *do* find this list a better source of information
and assistance than you do other resources...you stated that it
was more centralized...meaning you can get what you need easier
and quicker...if it weren't of benefit to you, you wouldn't use it.

Did you not see the word enough Perhaps you are reading a little too far 
into the words I pick. Or perhaps you can not understand that I feel I would 
need to gain a certain amount out of something that normally can be found 
free to then justify paying for it. 
Anything offered on this list can be found elsewhere, maybe not in one 
centralized spot but still elsewhere. To go and charge for use of the list 
would very likely de-centralize information here since some would rather not 
pay. At that point what exactly would you be paying for?
I may not contribute a lot to this list but I do know I contribute more 
than I ask of it. So really it would come down to if I paid to be here, I 
would be paying to answer a few questions here and there.
So everyone who thinks it would be fine to pay admission for this list, how 
much have you donated over the years of using it?

  I do not feel I benifit enough from this list to warrant paying to be on
 it. Matter of fact I am not 100% sure I have benifited from this list in
 quite sometime. I know the last couple of questions I posted I never got 
 a
 complete answer from the list, and if I was paying to be on this list 
 then I
 would start to get irritated if the answers were no better than I could 
 get
 elsewhere or if they were lesser which is the case at times.
 
 If you do not think you're benefitting from this list then why continue to 
 subscribe? I am sure that it would be no great disaster for the rest of us. 
 The thing is that its also a two way street, you need to contribute as well 
 as consume.

Application Scope in Virtual Directories (IIS)

2005-04-21 Thread jonese
Any one know of a way to have application scoped variables availabe to code 
in a virtual directory?
 Our system is setup like so:
 d:\usr\clientFolder
d:\usr\GlobalFolder  virtual folder in clients IIS setup  mapped 
folder in CF
 We want to store some CFC's in the global folder but there is code that 
needs access to some Application Scoped variables.
 thoughts?

Re: translating websites

2005-04-21 Thread Tony Weeg
 what do you use to manage all this? how do you keep the
 locales/languages in synch? 

 not sure i know what you mean? but i think i might... i have 150
or so labels
etc.. and if i need to add one to the english side, i add one to the
spanish side...

 how do you keep track of what's been
 translated? manually?

 the new system is still in development, so im keeping track of it... reusing
where words are redundant... 

how should it be managed?
