RE: Session Variables and returning to finish web forms
Ok I will use a CFLOCK and CFTransaction for the data processing. At present all the data entered in the form is stored as session variables, which enables the form to be split up over several screens which works well. i.e. cfinput name=jobdesc size=50 required=Yes message=Please provide the job description value=#SESSION.app.jobdesc# The final option below I am trying to implement into the form and am just looking for ideas on how this can best be achieved using Coldfusion. If the users have logged in as a member, they have the ability to save a partially completed online application and complete it later (by clicking the 'Finish Later' button at the bottom of the form) How would this be best achieved ? Would you save the form field session variables entered on the form into a database table with a relationship to the members table ? If so when the user returns to the form to complete it what would be the best way of ensuring that the data returned from the database table to populate the form fields works in conjunction with the value=#SESSION.app.jobdesc# that is set on the form fields by default that enables the form to be split over several screens ?

I have a similar 'wizard' style process and I create a structure (inside cflock) session.wizard For each wizard step I create session.wizard.stepN (where N is step number).

In each form page I CFPARAM request.wizard.stepN.formfieldN for all my form fields for this step with any default values.

Finally I duplicate the request scope to the session scope inside a CFLOCK so the values are remembered to the next request. In terms of keeping this data in some way, you might consider using CFWDDX which can convert complex CFML variables (like your wizard structure) and convert them to a XML string. You could then write this string to a file or database. CFWDDX can then be used to convert it back again. There are many ways to store this data but this in my mind would be the neatest.

Please help correct an assumption regarding Application.cfm
I have an assumption regarding Application.cfm that I'm starting to question. It was my understanding that the Application.cfm file was loaded+compiled the first time when a file in that directory was loaded, e.g. the first time someone loads index.cfm the Application.cfm file for that directory was loaded. After that the file was not loaded+compiled again until it was changed, i.e. a new version was uploaded. Further from that, it was also my understanding that the same was true for all files cfinclude'd from Application.cfm. Are my assumptions correct? The reason I ask is that today one of our sites trapped an error that suggests otherwise. The Application.cfm for all of our sites loads a shared file which sets some common variables - DSN names, common URLs, etc, all of which are stored in the Application scope. The error that was logged said that one of these variables was not set, which does not make sense based on my assumptions above. So any ideas on why this might have happened?

Re: Please help correct an assumption regarding Application.cfm
No, my understanding of application.cfm is more like an implicit include on every template that is requested by the browser and runs before anything else. I believe it is compiled and run every time.

Re: Session Variables and returning to finish web forms
Unless you plan to do something with the partially completed application, there is no reason to store it in a normalized way. You could just WDDX session.app and save the resulting packet into a database table; then, when the user comes back you just de-serialize the packet and repopulate session.app. Your table might look something like this: appStore{ userid int NOT NULL (FK), appData text, dateUpdated datetime } Ok I will use a CFLOCK and CFTransaction for the data processing. At present all the data entered in the form is stored as session variables, which enables the form to be split up over several screens which works well. i.e. cfinput name=jobdesc size=50 required=Yes message=Please provide the job description value=#SESSION.app.jobdesc# The final option below I am trying to implement into the form and am just looking for ideas on how this can best be achieved using Coldfusion. If the users have logged in as a member, they have the ability to save a partially completed online application and complete it later (by clicking the 'Finish Later' button at the bottom of the form) How would this be best achieved ? Would you save the form field session variables entered on the form into a database table with a relationship to the members table ? If so when the user returns to the form to complete it what would be the best way of ensuring that the data returned from the database table to populate the form fields works in conjunction with the value=#SESSION.app.jobdesc# that is set on the form fields by default that enables the form to be split over several screens ? Thanks Ian -Original Message- From: Michael Traher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 05 September 2005 15:56 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Session Variables in CFMX 7 Hi Ian, Here are a few ideas regarding this. Best deal with session variables within a CFLOCK statement (see docs for details of possible race conditions) and therefore a useful way to go about this is to copy any session structures to the request scope on each request. I have a similar 'wizard' style process and I create a structure (inside cflock) session.wizard For each wizard step I create session.wizard.stepN (where N is step number). I then duplicate this structure to the request scope so that I can forget about locking from now on. In each form page I CFPARAM request.wizard.stepN.formfieldN for all my form fields for this step with any default values. When the form is submitted I cfloop thru the form structure and copy the form values to the request.wizard.stepN.formfieldN values. Finally I duplicate the request scope to the session scope inside a CFLOCK so the values are remembered to the next request. In terms of keeping this data in some way, you might consider using CFWDDX which can convert complex CFML variables (like your wizard structure) and convert them to a XML string. You could then write this string to a file or database. CFWDDX can then be used to convert it back again. There are many ways to store this data but this in my mind would be the neatest.

RE: Please help correct an assumption regarding Application.cfm
Damien, It's likely that you are setting application variables because you say they are stored in the application scope.

I'm using CFCHART (yes, CFCHART, not CFGRAPH--I doubled checked it this time g) and need to send the charts via e-mail.

Compiling Java ?%$/%??
Hi, In the CFMX docs about Writing a Java CFX tag, it looks so simple: Compile the java source file into a class file using the Java compiler. If you are using the command-line tools bundled with the JDK, use the following command line, which you execute from within the classes directory: javac -classpath cf_root\lib\cfx.jar MyHelloColdFusion.java ... If you receive errors during compilation, check the source code to make sure you entered it correctly. If no errors occur, you successfully wrote your first Java CFX tag. Now what if you get no error message and no tag compiled and no cab library updated, NO NOTHING? When I run the compiler, I see some black window open a fraction of a second, then POUF! it is gone! Where are my error messages? I tried to redirect text results from the compiler with some errors.txt file, like in good old days under DOS, I get a file, but it is empty :-( Can someone help?

Fusebox Conf interview 6: Adv FB, Security plugin, Ruby on Rails
In this issue of ColdFusion conference and training news: 1. Fusebox and Frameworks Conference News - hotel price ends 9/12/05 2. Advanced Fusebox interview with Jeff Peters 3. Lock/key security plugin interview with Sandy Clark 4. Ruby on Rails for CF Developers interview with John Paul Ashenfelter Happy coding - Michael Smith, TeraTech, Inc http://www.teratech.com/ Creating excellent custom software since 1989 1. Fusebox and Frameworks News ** * Win a gigabyte memory stick - if you sign up for the Advanced Fusebox class by Wed 9/21/05 5pm you will be entered in a raffle to win a gigabyte memory stick. If you have already signed up you are entered already! * We have cancelled the following classes MT101 Mach-II with Hal Helms Wed 9/28/05 FB103 Intro to Fusebox Wed 9/28/05 * Repeat sessions - from our attendee survey This Glue Dries Fast - Joe Rinehart Best Practices and Frameworks - Simon Horwith Head First Mach-II - Matt Woodward * Hotel price deadline is 9/12/05 The group rate is $199 (regular is $289) using group code FUSFUSA and is good through Monday 9/12/05 http://www.cfconf.org/fusebox2005/hotel.cfm * The winner of the survey competition is Clark Valberg who wrote on why you should go to the conference: Because if you DONT go, life will go on as usual That is to say youll be sitting in your drab sunless cubicle breathing stale air, drinking stale coffee, and pretending to work, while at the same time bobbing your head around trying to watch your back for the boss. Youll find yourself feeling depressed as you read Simon Horwith's blog entries going on about how much fun everyones having at the conference. Then, inevitably, in a moment of weakness the boss will sneak up on you. Startled, youll accidentally ALT+TAB one too many times right onto the adult video trailer you muted, but forgot to close. The boss will ask you back to his office where youll be informed of your termination. Since you really never used any kind of real development methodology and your code was a total mess you probably wont even get a letter of recommendation. So there you'll be - managing a Bennigan's and living in your parents attic. Maybe you should have just gone to the conference, eh? * The Fusebox and Frameworks conference http://www.cfconf.org/fusebox2005/ is only 3 weeks away * Long time CFer Cameron Childress set up a site to help displaced NOMMUG members: Help a fellow developer from New Orleans - if you think you could offer anything at all in the way of networking, a place to stay while they get on their feet, a friendly face, even a job opportunity, please join the temporary NOMMUG Help list at http://www.sdcfug.org/nommug * CFUNITED student wrote Katrina help site - CF rapid development succeeds again. http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=eentry=1724 * CF Underground VII will be in Anaheim CA 10/15/05 before MAX The call for speakers is up at http://www.cfconf.org/cf_underground7/survey.cfm Please complete by Friday 9/9/05 2. Advanced Fusebox interview with Jeff Peters ** Michael Smith: Today I'm talking to Jeff Peters about his preconference class, Advanced Fusebox. Welcome back, Jeff. Jeff Peters: Thanks, Michael. It's hard to believe we're on top of another Fusebox conference already! MS: It sure is. And you're teaching another class the day before the conference. Tell me a little about what attendees can expect. JP: Well, I'm really looking forward to it. I've been doing a lot of intro- level training lately, and it should be a lot of fun to do an advanced class. We're going to get into the grit of Fusebox 4 and really look at how to make it work for you in a professional setting. MS: So students should have some experience with Fusebox already? JP: I would highly recommend it, not only because we're going to be working with advanced-level material, but also because it's a one-day class and we're going to be moving fairly quickly. MS: That's good to know. What sorts of topics will you be teaching? JP: We'll be looking at the Fusebox process in detail, examining what Fusebox does when and how to leverage settings in the application configuration file. We'll also examine using CFCs with Fusebox, some advanced layout techniques, and how to integrate Fusebox with other applications. MS: Sounds like a lot for a one-day session. JP: It should be a full session, but hopefully interesting and fun enough to make the material useful and memorable. MS: Great. I'm sure your students are in for a good day. What should they bring to class? JP: A laptop with ColdFusion ready to go, and preferably the Fusebox 4 core files downloaded. I'll have them available as well, but it will save time if students already have them. MS: I'll make sure we get the word out. JP: Thanks. Good luck

Re: Calling php class / function from a cfc
You could just fix the headless system so that it works. Use XServ or a similar virtual XServer to provide a vurtual head and take away the headless arguments in the CF JVM startup string.

Multiple Processors and CFMX 7
I am getting ready to install our application at a new client site by downloading the CFMX7 trial software and then registering it once all is well and happy.

Can it convert to a Standard Edition CFMX7 version by entering the Reg Code once purchased? 3.)

RE: Multiple Processors and CFMX 7
1.) Will the CFMX 7 trial software run on a quad processor machine? Yes. 2.) Can it convert to a Standard Edition CFMX7 version by entering the Reg Code once purchased? Generally, yes. However, I don't think you can run Standard Edition on a four-processor machine according to the license. I'm no licensing expert, though. 3.) It's very vanilla CF code and battle hardened on 6.1... never tested on 7... am I crazy? Is it a production server? If so, yes, you're crazy. If not, no, you're not crazy.

N! The main method is in CF. CF calls the class, this is a CFX custom tag, not an application. I don't see why you can't build a test harness outside of CF.

XML, XSD, XSL
Ok, I've made the decision to use XML as the format to pass data between objects in my application. This approach seems to have lots of advantages as opposed to using lists of parameters or structures. My question now is how and why use XSD's and XSL. 1. Is there a better list to post this to? 2. XSD's don't seem to provide much benefit in a stand-alone application besides helping create test data via tools like xmlSpy. I don't even see how in ColdFusion you can validate an XML using an associated XSD. And it doesn't look like XSL documents are based off of an XSD, so you still have to validate if field lengths, etc using code. Am I missing something here? 3. Lastly, since the XSL doesn't use data off of the XSD, it appears to be just a different, not necessarily better, mechanism for displaying data. I am not sure of the value for me to learn this at this point in time and I see no value in converting screens from CF/HTML to XSL/HTML. Again, am I missing something here? What type of situations cry out for XSL vs. CF/HTML? Thanks, Andy ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

RE: ColdFusion Installation - more FREAKING JNDI problems
Thanks for the info, although apparently it doesn't apply to the latest build of MSDE ... I'm still unable to reinstall an unnamed instance of MSDE on that server, though I was able to install a named instance for which the extra tool said it wasn't needed, so... still unable to connect to the named instance as with the unnamed instance... Each instance, named or unnamed, will listen on a separate port, assuming that they and you are using the TCP/IP listener.

Re: Question about my security system
I see the point but I'm not sure if I agree with the implementation. What you talking about here is metadata: information about the file. By putting all of this in the data base you're adding a level of complexity that I just wouldn't be comfortable with. Well, it adds flexibility at the price of complexity. It's not *that* hard to implement it. My first implementation was actually quite easy to code. And yes, while it is a database lookup, it's a very small lookup at that so I don't think it should take that much time. I'll have to research how bad the performance degredation will really be... The cf_Security tag has to be used (it doesn't have to be used in every file, by the way, just a common include that's run for every request). So you already have a requirement to put something in every file (or in some common place) but let's say it's included on every page. Well, yes, it does need to be included on any template that needs to be secured (every template in my case). At the time of coding a template, I will identify what actions are to be performed in that template. I will then update the cf_security tag to read like this: cf_security permissions=read,write,delete What happens is when the cf_security tag runs, it will update the database with those permissions (if it hasn't already been done) and then I can go into the GUI and find that file and assign groups to each of those permissions. Then, when a user requests the template, cf_security runs and spits out a structure or some variables set to TRUE for whatever permissions that the user's group has access to. This is how I am abstracting any group/user references from the template. The cf_security tag does the lookup and spits out variables that the calling template can use for its processing. But you're also inheriting a need to make every file uniquely named (or else moving files would be a nightmare) and this doesn't mesh with most web sites (which use the same root for every directory). Ahh, yes, I've thought this out. Obviously it's a problem if every file on my site is called index.cfm ;) So, instead, the cf_security tag will include a unique file security identifier that is automatically placed in every file that the cf_security tag is place: cf_security permissinos=read,write,delete FileSID=jasjdj32j42kj3 The way that the SID is inserted is also handled by the cf_security tag. If the tag notices that it wasn't called with a FileSID, it will generate a unique ID, register that ID in the database, then rewrite the calling template with that ID. This will obviously only be performed once. As of now, I know of no other way to uniquely identify other than giving it a unique identifier. You're also using a database which has no real connection to the file to store important information about the file. New files must be added the filesystem and then registered in the security system. All changes will require a trip to this UI (and when you're talking about doing this on the file level I'm not sure if that's any easier than just changing something in the file). Again, this is handled by cf_security automatically. I just didn't include that in my previous post because it was somewhat unrelated to the overall concept.. and to keep the discussion simple. The parallel of the Windows permission system (well... at least NTFS) is a good one: the file permissions are maintained in the file or directory. Move a file and it still has the same permissions. Yeah, that was exactly what I was going for. The problem is that there is no GUI for editing a file and dropping in the correct name. For example, you edit a file in NTFS and add a group or user to that file. It looks that up the group's name in a database and then stores that SID in the file or wherever it stores it. If I were to completely parallel that concept, I'd open up dreamweaver and I'd (me, mike) be the database lookup mechanism as I open up my app and look what groups I've created. So, I kinda have to shift the storage of file-level permissions into the database so that association can happen automatically. There is no centralized database of file-level permissions. In a, let's say average system, you might put your security groups in the file: isEntitled(User, admin,member) Which returns true if the user is an admin or a member. This isn't a bad thing in and of itself, I think. The security information is where I think it should be: in the file. You know, no, it's not that bad. Where it gets annoying is if you rename a group. Now you've got a big uh oh. Suppose Admin is now called Support Staff and I've added a new group called System Administrators. Now I'd have to edit every file that makes a reference to each of those groups and could possibly compromise my security by a stupid editing mistake. While I think I could try really hard to plan out my application pretty well in the beginning to avoid any
RE: XML, XSD, XSL
Ok, I've made the decision to use XML as the format to pass data between objects in my application. This approach seems to have lots of advantages as opposed to using lists of parameters or structures. My question now is how and why use XSD's and XSL. What exactly are these advantages? I can't see any advantages for using XML to transport data within an application. If you want to transport data from one application to another, then XML provides advantages, but otherwise you're making more work for yourself. 2.XSD's don't seem to provide much benefit in a stand-alone application besides helping create test data via tools like xmlSpy. I agree; if you're not passing data around between applications, you probably don't need DTDs or schemas. Of course, I don't think XML is especially useful at all in those cases either, as I mentioned above. I don't even see how in ColdFusion you can validate an XML using an associated XSD. CFMX 7 provides the XmlValidate function for this. And it doesn't look like XSL documents are based off of an XSD, so you still have to validate if field lengths, etc using code. Am I missing something here? I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish, exactly. XSL documents follow the XSL schema - that defines all the different elements and attributes you can use within an XSL stylesheet. By itself, this won't help you with data validation, but then again that's not what XSL is for - it's for formatting and transforming XML documents. 3.Lastly, since the XSL doesn't use data off of the XSD, it appears to be just a different, not necessarily better, mechanism for displaying data. I am not sure of the value for me to learn this at this point in time and I see no value in converting screens from CF/HTML to XSL/HTML. Again, am I missing something here? What type of situations cry out for XSL vs. CF/HTML? If you already have a bunch of XML documents, it may be easier (and will almost certainly be more efficient) to write XSL stylesheets and transformations than to write CFML programs to read one XML language, then write something else. But if your data isn't already in XML, it's usually kind of silly to generate XML then use XSL to transform it to something else when you could just write what you want in the first place with CF.

Why not just use that? CF itself uses this mechanism to track which files have been compiled, for example. Unfortunately, that's making the assumption that either the filename won't be renamed (which yes, is unlikely) or the file will not move (this could happen easily within the life of the app). It's not that big of a deal for CF because it just recompiles. It would suck if it lost it's permissions because then you'd have to go reassign them again.

RE: XML, XSD, XSL
-Original Message- From: Andy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 07, 2005 11:57 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: XML, XSD, XSL Ok, I've made the decision to use XML as the format to pass data between objects in my application. This approach seems to have lots of advantages as opposed to using lists of parameters or structures. My question now is how and why use XSD's and XSL. Within an application? This sounds odd... why not just pass objects? In my option XML is really only a good option where you're forced into a text-only mechanism (like HTTP). Other than that keeping things native is nearly always the way to go. 1.Is there a better list to post this to? Probably. ;^) 2.XSD's don't seem to provide much benefit in a stand-alone application besides helping create test data via tools like xmlSpy. I don't even see how in ColdFusion you can validate an XML using an associated XSD. And it doesn't look like XSL documents are based off of an XSD, so you still have to validate if field lengths, etc using code. Am I missing something here? Nope... XSDs are far from a panacea... they check structure and dialect. Dat's it. CF 7 can validate an XSD and previous versions can do with outside help (COM or Java). 3.Lastly, since the XSL doesn't use data off of the XSD, it appears to be just a different, not necessarily better, mechanism for displaying data. Well - for formatting and displaying data. That's it, nothing more. I am not sure of the value for me to learn this at this point in time and I see no value in converting screens from CF/HTML to XSL/HTML. Again, am I missing something here? What type of situations cry out for XSL vs. CF/HTML? The interesting promise of XSL is to send plain XML data to the browser and have the XSL applied there - you send plain data and you get pretty pages.: a complete separation of data and presentation. The plain data is SO VERY MUCH easier for automated systems to deal with (the promise of the semantic web) and the pretty pages are only of use to humans so why not have them generated in the browser? Of course it hasn't really worked out that way (yet?) Personally I don't see much value for XSL on the server-side for the exact reasons already mentioned: 1) Why pass XML within an application in the first place? And 2) why not just format it in the old fashioned way? Jim Davis ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
