Re: Need simple time tracking app
I dont have an axe to grind. I dont have anything to do with any company that produces time software. SInce I use a free version, I'm not even a customer of one, nor do I play one on tv. Just have a look at the ones suggested and see if they meet your needs. The one I suggested, and which has worked flawlessly for me since I heard about it here a few years ago, is Trax Time. And as I said, there's a multi user version but I haven't used it because I dont need multi user in a one-man shop.

RE: How to send email using CF for clients without an open relay...
Hi Rick, SPF records belong in the DNS for the domain of the mail server for the domain it is working for. For example, I run simple DNS, the procedure is to add a TXT record for the relevant domain such as: v=spf1 ip4:66.98.154.84 mx mx:84.43.72.133 ~all This SPF shows I am running Version 1 of SPF, that my mail goes out through 66.98.154.84 and that mail comes in through 84.43.72.133. The reason for this config is that my ISP can't/won't (read bunch of bozos) set up reverse dns for me. So I found an outbound SMTP service that was able to configure reverse dns for the mail server. So, to clarify your objective: you need mail you generate on behalf of client domains to get to the recipients. For SPF you need to ask your clients to add your mail server to their DNS SPF record as an outbound server. For Reverse DNS the IP of the outbound mail server needs to have an IP record pointing back to the domain. This can only be done by the owner of the IP address. In my case Onetel, my ISP, owns the IP address and there is nothing I can do to configure the reverse DNS on the IP address I borrow from them - that's down to them to do. The only reliable way to guarantee mail you generate from CF is going to get to recipients is to ask your clients to set up authenticated SMTP sessions. This makes the mail delivery their responsibility, as it should be - their internal IT guys should be onto this. (My background includes 20 years in IT Management, infrastructure, et al.) cfmail type =html from =[EMAIL PROTECTED] to = [EMAIL PROTECTED] server=mail.fasttrackonline.co.uk username=[EMAIL PROTECTED] password=mypassword subject=FAST TRACK - CONTACT US This example of the CFmail tag shows how the mail is pointed at a server with authenticated SMTP. When configuring mail server applications many have the option to ask for an authenticated POP session prior to allowing SMTP which is how most get around requiring full SMTP authentication. However, in your instance there will be no POP session so it has to be full authentication. If you take the route of adding other domains to your mail server they will not have a valid reverse dns pointer and the mail will bounce from many receiving mail servers. If you ask clients only to whitelist mail sesssions from your domain when receiving their email the email will still be seen to have originated on your mail server. If you are dealing with clients who do not host their own mail servers then it is the responsibility of who ever does host it to get this set up properly. If they are hosting a mail server with a provider who does not configure reverse DNS and SPF it's time they changed! Don't get confused with the reverse DNS record for the domain DNS server.

One thing I can't sort out is where the SPF and reverse-DNS stuff should go...my ISP, whose domain is tagged onto the end of my static IP according to records, or GoDaddy.com where I manually handle my DNS, MX, TXT, and SPF records or on my own server, which I don't use to handle any of this...it pretty confusing.

Hi Rick, This would mean the mails will be originating from a server that isn't included in the domain spf records and it will get scored as spam by the receiving server. Naturally, the reverse dns for the domain won't match up to the sending server and you will find mail is rejected by some servers. Keep an eye on your bounces and run lots of tests to various domains to see your emails are getting out. As mentioned before, we send out some 8000 emails a week to our dating site members and I'm all too aware of the problems spf and reverse dns cause - although I have to say I'm totally in favour of it as it's anto spam.

RE: SEO/SES URL's vs. UUID as primary key
We do something similar to create custom domains - but it is really a parlor trick. We set a wildcard in the dns: *.mydomain.com x.x.x.x.x - points to our web site This allows any subdomain starting with anything that is not specifically defined by dns to be routed to that ip address. We can then do something like: bob.mydomain.com mary.mydomain.com admin.mydomain.com socks.mydomain.com keyword.mydomain.com specialprogram.mydomain.com You get the idea. The index page (or missing file handler or whatever) teases out the first item in the domain string and displays content accordingly. Using the approach below combined with a missing file handler the domain could be 1234567.mydomain.com/doge_magnum_headers Obviously this may be no better than the technique described below, but it works well for things like personal sites (think real estate), marketing content and the like. If you have affiliates that you are tracking they may brighten at the prospect of having their own url :) Keep in mind that it would need a dedicated IP address - otherwise you will have to set a host header for every one of the strings - which would sort of defeat your purpose. -Mark -Original Message- From: Matt Robertson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 05, 2006 9:34 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: SEO/SES URL's vs. UUID as primary key I never got into any sort of specifics in that thread.

RE: Subnet Mask from an IP
This is odd The subnet mask is NOT related to the IP address per se. It's specific to the router - particularly the LOCAL route (the one closest to the host. It's a way of controlling and subdividing networks and traffics. It doesn't seem like it would not be an accurate predictor or control measure. Maybe they want to check the hops after it reaches your internal network or something wierd. If you want to know the subnet of your server run this from the command line: ipconfig /all Keep in mind that this may tell you exactly zero (it wouldn't tell you much on our network) because you may have translated addresses or port forwarding or whatever. -Mark Mark A.

Re: Need simple time tracking app
I originally sent this as a direct reply to Rick but I'll go ahead and send it out to the group as a whole. I've been working on this for a while in my spare time for myself. Recently I had a career change and that's opened up the opportunity for me to work on it more. This is a call for testers and users. If you don't mind working with a hosted alpha stage app, I have the exact tool you're looking for... It is a time tracker that follows individual time entries for tasks assigned to projects for a specific client. The time entries can be made by any user assigned to the project or task. I'm building it as a hosted application for contractors and small businesses but until I'm comfortable with the service and everything it provides is free to use, abuse and help define everything that it will be. You can take a preview of the app by going to http://qtrack.guardian-web.com and using demo as the username and password. This will let you play around with the system and see what it's capabilities are. If you like what you see then let me know via email at chumphrey at gmail doht com and I can create a personal login for you. Once you have a login you can create clients, projects and tasks and then invite additional users in to use the system as you need. Again, let me know what you think!

It asked me to set up a new server configuration so I'm a bit nervous upgrading. Thanks. I have had some issues using the CFDOCUMENT tag using it to right align text and specific font types. The font type wasn't too difficult to figure out, but the right alignment we noticed that with itext (not sure about the others) would treat the width of all non-alphanumeric character differently than numbers and letters, so I wrote a CFC that would take in the text from a form and insert TD's around each character to right align it successfully. If we had to center or left align text, everything worked fine. We were using it to make business cards for printing and it worked quite well, but not without a headache since there wasn't anything written anywhere that described the funky behavior.

Weird Cfgrid behavior
So I am still working on that checkbox thing. I finally got a response
on the CF-Flash list (the first one so far) and I am perusing through
the Flex livedocs for stuff.
At any rate, I have a weird behavior for the grid. I have a grid column
which uses a type=currency to do some pretty formatting. In my
function which loops over the items in the list and adds these monetary
values up, I used a function to strip out the $ and ,.
On form load, I run some flash remoting to fill the grid with data. I
have a listener for when the data arrives (modelChanged) and then I run
the function to total up my dollars right off the bat. Here is the
weird part-- At the time the modelChanged event is fired, the formatting
does NOT YET EXIST on the grid. It is far to quick to see with my eyes,
but if I alert the values in the function they look like this 1234.56,
but a split second later they look like this $1,234.56. It is like
the CFGRID automatically triggers some formatting function AFTER the
data loads, but NOT BEFORE the modelChanged event goes off. I ended up
having to use a setTimeout() to wait about 1000 milliseconds, and then
add up my values. After a second had passed, the formatting was there.
Now wasn't that weird?
function add_em_up()
{
_root.total_cleared();
}
var intervalID:Number = _global.setTimeout(add_em_up,1000);
The whole add_em_up() function is ridiculous, but I couldn't get the
total _cleared() to be scoped correctly if I called it directly form the
setTimeout(). If anyone knows the right way to do that, let me know.
:)

RE: How to send email using CF for clients without an open relay...
Hi, Jenny...that does bring some clarification. I think the fact that there are so many flash points in this process is what causes confusion over where to go to set up things...as in, who has responsibility for what. I know of only one client who runs their own mail server that I could ask to set me up in thier SPF...and I doubt that guy even knows what that is... The rest are very small businesses who just use the POP3 accounts provided by our local ISP. Sounds like I need to do some talking to my business rep with our local ISP and the techs there to see about reverse DNS. Is it possible that, for those clients who send and receive mail from the ISP's mail servers, the ISP could add me to their SPF? Also, why would GoDaddy.com, my registrar, provide a place for me to place SPF files for my domain through their interface if it's not the correct place for them to be located? Is that only for me if I use their POP3 / SMTP accounts on their mail servers? I'm sure you can appreciate how confusing this is. I've contacted GoDaddy about this, but I think all I got back was a virtual blank stare. There perspective is probably that they offer this direct DNS access, but don't have any plans to have to hold the hand of clients to use it. It's just an additional feature for those who know how already... Too many players...client and their mail servers if they have them... local ISP, my mail server, my local ISP, my registrar...all who potentially have to be dealt with at some level to get this all working. :oP I've even given thought at times of giving up on running my own mail servers because of the complexity I'm running into as we try to control spam. However, I run the risk of sending too much mail through an outside company's mail servers and having my clients newsletters, etc., not delivered. That's what prompted me to run a mail server in the first place...my local ISP had a cap of 600 emails per day...and I was going over that almost every day. Thanks again for the help and advice... Rick -Original Message- From: Jennifer Gavin-Wear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 06, 2006 5:13 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: How to send email using CF for clients without an open relay... Hi Rick, SPF records belong in the DNS for the domain of the mail server for the domain it is working for. For example, I run simple DNS, the procedure is to add a TXT record for the relevant domain such as: v=spf1 ip4:66.98.154.84 mx mx:84.43.72.133 ~all This SPF shows I am running Version 1 of SPF, that my mail goes out through 66.98.154.84 and that mail comes in through 84.43.72.133. The reason for this config is that my ISP can't/won't (read bunch of bozos) set up reverse dns for me. So I found an outbound SMTP service that was able to configure reverse dns for the mail server. So, to clarify your objective: you need mail you generate on behalf of client domains to get to the recipients. For SPF you need to ask your clients to add your mail server to their DNS SPF record as an outbound server. For Reverse DNS the IP of the outbound mail server needs to have an IP record pointing back to the domain. This can only be done by the owner of the IP address. In my case Onetel, my ISP, owns the IP address and there is nothing I can do to configure the reverse DNS on the IP address I borrow from them - that's down to them to do. The only reliable way to guarantee mail you generate from CF is going to get to recipients is to ask your clients to set up authenticated SMTP sessions. This makes the mail delivery their responsibility, as it should be - their internal IT guys should be onto this. (My background includes 20 years in IT Management, infrastructure, et al.) cfmail type =html from =[EMAIL PROTECTED] to = [EMAIL PROTECTED] server=mail.fasttrackonline.co.uk username=[EMAIL PROTECTED] password=mypassword subject=FAST TRACK - CONTACT US This example of the CFmail tag shows how the mail is pointed at a server with authenticated SMTP. When configuring mail server applications many have the option to ask for an authenticated POP session prior to allowing SMTP which is how most get around requiring full SMTP authentication. However, in your instance there will be no POP session so it has to be full authentication. If you take the route of adding other domains to your mail server they will not have a valid reverse dns pointer and the mail will bounce from many receiving mail servers. If you ask clients only to whitelist mail sesssions from your domain when receiving their email the email will still be seen to have originated on your mail server. If you are dealing with clients who do not host their own mail servers then it is the responsibility of who ever does host it to get this set up properly. If they are hosting a mail server with a provider who does not configure reverse DNS and SPF it's time they changed! Don't get
weird cf caching problem
I am puzzled by a problem I'm having. I set up a very simple site. 1 file - loadbalancer.cfm which is just basically a hello world file (it outputs some text). I hit that file using a browser through the local apache server, and it loads up fine. I rename the file to loadbalancer2.cfm and refresh the page, I get a CF error saying File not found: /loadbalancer.cfm. So far so good. I rename the file back to loadbalancer.cfm and refresh the page, and I STILL get a CF error saying File not found: /loadbalancer.cfm If I go to cf administrator and go to caching and say Clear template cache now, and then refresh the page, it loads up fine. I understand if I had caching enabled, which I originally did, but I have since disabled all the caching on the caching page in cf administrator and restarted the CF service. This is really puzzling me. Does anyone have any idea of what could be causing this? I am using Apache 2.0.55 with CF Server 7 (with updater 1). ColdFusion runs as a domain user with full access to c:\CFusionMX7 directory and read only access to where the loadbalancer.cfm file is.

to this:

That true, but according the original post he|she is looking for this:
column name begins with K then a number ( from 1 - 50 )
So I guess than we should recommend a regex something like:
cfif refind(col,^K[0-9]{1,2})
This should be fairly close as long as we are not concerended with columns
beginning with strings like K61 or K87.

Re: SEO/SES URL's vs. UUID as primary key
Just tested and now I remember why you don't use a cflocation: The true url is exposed to the client (and it probably does show a Moved header... haven't checked that but the former is enough to torpedo the idea). -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:228660 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: SEO/SES URL's vs. UUID as primary key
Yeah, a couple. First off, cflocation sends a 'moved' header (forget the code just now). Secondly... I don't remember the second reason, but there was one :-). Give it a shot. I was trying so many things so many different ways I may have missed something. Yes. GetPageContext.include() was one of the things we threw against the wall. Didn't stick. If you try an include on anything else but a site-wide or 404 handler it works. Across file tree branches that diverge at the root, regardless of the web root etc. Mappings do not help. Its something specific to the error handler itself. The error or 404 handler can include or cfmodule in stuff that is in its same folder under only limited circumstances. I was using a system where CF7 and CF6.1 were installed to their default folders, IIS was in use but the web sites were not homed off the IIS /inetpub/wwwroot/ folder for security's sake. If you were to install and run off /cfusionmx7/wwwroot/ it might not be a problem, but I would argue tha'ts a bad security choice. Since one of the circumstances is you can run an include or module within the same folder as the error handler if its in the web root, I suppose you could copy all files you need there and an include would work. Seems like too much trouble, especially since cfhttp -- as crazy as it sounds -- works so well. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com On 1/5/06, James Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Was there a reason not to cflocation to the page rather than using cfhttp to include it?

Announcing SeeFusion 3.1
Greetings, everyone. Firstly, on behalf of the team here at Webapper, a Happy
New Year to all.
As we kick off the new year, we're happy to be announcing the release of
SeeFusion 3.1. Even though it's a dot release, there are a couple of nifty
new features that we hope you'll find useful. Here is a quick summary:
* Counters: SeeFusion counters are a combination of cfstat and JRun metrics.
Counters give you a cfstat-style view of request, database and memory activity,
and, unlike with cfstat, can be streamed to a browser, and also logged to a
database (Enterprise only).
* rowLimit: The new rowLimit JDBC driver option allows you to set an upper
limit for the number of rows returned in queries, in order to prevent
excessively large result sets from hanging threads and consuming memory, and
possibly crashing the server.
* Database Logging: We've improved the feedback and robustness of the database
logging subsystem, including the adding of a simplified on/off switch.
In addition, we've made the online Administrator's Guide configuration section
easier to use by matching the order and layout of the SeeFusion configuration
interface, added more FAQs, and included a toll-free phone number (USA only)
for sales/support inquiries (866.816.4700; International: {IDD} + 970.223.2278).
Even bigger and better things are planned for SeeFusion 4. Stay tuned, and
thanks so much to everyone for all the interest in SeeFusion.
Best,

RE: Regex ex question. How to match NOT this string.
You are correct, CF uses Perl's regular expression syntax, and so do a lot of other languages. It seems that a lot of people recognize Perl's regex as one of the best implementations available (and very popular, thus well known) and I'm assuming that's why the CF developers went with it.

RE: Regex ex question. How to match NOT this string.
Scott and Steve, This is strange, I just looked in my Perl docs; Perl /does/ support look behind: (?=...) zero width positive look behind (?!...) zero width negative look behind I wonder why CF doesn't support this? Maybe because it's totally possible to do it other ways (positive look ahead could be the same as positive look behind, depending on where you put your pattern in the regex). However, if you are used to using look behind, and it's not in CF, that's a let down. I wonder if there are any cases where look behind is absolutely necessary...or is it just a different syntax in CF? Any experts out there know the answer? Mr. Forta or Watts? -Original Message- From: Scott Stroz I don't think CF supports lookbehind. From: Steve Brownlee Ok, this is strange. That RegEx works in Java so CF isn't using the JDK-provided RegEx implementation? Looks like it's using the Perl 5 implementation. Seems counter-productive (if my assumption is correct, of course). -Original Message- From: Steve Brownlee Ok, ok, so I didn't actually try an example in CF :) CF must use a different RegEx engine than what I'm used to using. The ?! is negative lookbehind because he said he wanted to grab the /organization tag.

RE: Regex ex question. How to match NOT this string.
I just looked in my Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7 Application Development book (what a title! ;)), written by Ben Forta and a bunch of other folks, and this paragraph is very on topic: ...these additions make ColdFusion's RegEx support much more powerful, and much closer to the way regular expressions work in Perl, which for many people is the de facto standard for how regular expressions should behave. The additions they are talking about are things like look ahead, word boundaries, escape sequences, etc. Also, this sentence answers our previous question ColdFusion does not support (Perl's) lookbehind processing... Also, it looks like Java uses Perl's syntax as well: http://tinyurl.com/ay8kc From: Munson, Jacob Scott and Steve, This is strange, I just looked in my Perl docs; Perl /does/ support look behind: (?=...) zero width positive look behind (?!...) zero width negative look behind I wonder why CF doesn't support this? Maybe because it's totally possible to do it other ways (positive look ahead could be the same as positive look behind, depending on where you put your pattern in the regex). However, if you are used to using look behind, and it's not in CF, that's a let down. I wonder if there are any cases where look behind is absolutely necessary...or is it just a different syntax in CF? Any experts out there know the answer? Mr. Forta or Watts? -Original Message- From: Scott Stroz I don't think CF supports lookbehind. From: Steve Brownlee Ok, this is strange.

Re: Verity vs. sql indexing
I think it has problems at around the 2GB limit as far as BLOBS and CLOBS are concerned. Are any of your docs bigger than 2GB? It will index all popular doc formats (word, excel, ppt, pdf, blah blah) directly from a BLOB. It can automatically produce an HTML version of the stored doc (with search terms highlighted if that's your kind of thing). It can also index smaller amounts of textual infomation with a different kind of index that doesn't need syncing, which is possibly what your DBA was talking about, but this is not the limit of its power.

We were looking to do some indexing with it, but our DBA said we had to limit our fields to something like varchar2(30), which was unacceptable.

ColdFusion Cookbook
So hopefully this won't' spawn another 100 message thread on food, but the ColdFusion Cookbook is launched: www.coldfusioncookbook.com. It is still in beta I suppose, but I'd love feedback.

Re: ColdFusion Cookbook
Will you be adding a way to post comments on things put up? One of the things I noticed that bit a developer in my group was the mentioning of Val() on this one: http://www.coldfusioncookbook.com/entry/15/You-need-to-test-a-string-to-see-if-it-is-a-valid-numeric-value .. If the numeric number is rather large Val() will return the number in scientific notation. I do not have a pre CFMX box to test it on, but from what I remember the developer had always done something along those lines prior to CFMX to get a number then it started to bomb out in MX. Of course it is way past my bed time so I might be remembering the details wrong on that one. My question more of general curiosity on the design and the whole Val() stuff was just an attempt at maybe an example of where something could be put in by a person. ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:228685 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
