Re: cfdocument underline in Linux
I don't know if it will help, but from Brian's blog entry:
(http://www.briankotek.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/10/5/Special-Cases)
Until you have to do something more than hello world. A while back
we tried to add PDF generation to our application as an option to save
the page, and we spent days just trying to get the CSS to affect the
generated PDF. We tried linking to the CSS file outside of document.
We tried inside cfdocument. We tried cfincluding it. We tried actually
copying it within cfdocument. We tried inline styles. You get the
idea. FWIW, we had to do a
style type=text/css@import url('/assets/css/pdf.css');/style
within every cfdocumentitem block to finally get it to work. Again,
this sort of thing is not covered anywhere in the documentation (that
I could find).

database design revisted
I have a table which holds information for a auction site and was wonder how to handle a couple of things. Sorry for the long drawn out question, but I am just a little baffeled on what the correct way of doing this may be. Hopefully I will not have too many questions after this, but the database is getting a little hairy. [auction expire] Say a auction is listed for 7 days, and ends at a specified time. How would I go about ending the auction? I have the following fields in the table. Would I need to run a scheduled task every so often and check the ending time and mark the auction as being over? Or should I have the code that checks the auction status in application.cfm and run it everytime someone visits the site? listed_time ending_time [payment_method] When placing an item up for auction, the seller can choose what payment types they prefer (Paypal, certified check, personal check, money order) should I store this info in it's own table referencing the user_id of the users table as key? I looked at the way EBAY was handling it, and they are having the seller decide payment options with each auction. Would it be better to do that only when a user signs up as a seller, and just put their preferred payment options in their preferences, instead of making them choose every time they place an auction?

Re: database design revisted
Doug, There's no reason that you should need to add any kind of logic to expire an auction. You especially would not need to do anything in your Application.cfm/Application.cfc. When a user views an auction, just check the auction end date/time against the current date/time, and if the end date has already passed, set some kind of a flag: ie. cfset isAuctionFinished = dateCompare( now(), auction_end_date ) EQ 1 / That's it. All you have to do at that point is just check in your code if the auction is finished, and take the necessary action based on that. I am leaving out tons of implementation specific details, and of course you'ld want to validate your data, but the general idea is that you just check if the auction is finished whenever a user views it. You're having to retrieve that auction data anyways, so what's the big deal in adding one extra check to see if it's finished? I don't see any reason to run a scheduled job when it's not a problem to do the check in real time. As for the preferred payment, why not give the seller the opportunity to do both things you talked about? In their profile, let them choose a preferred method, but at the same time, give them the option to use a different method on a per-auction basis. - Justin On 10/8/06, Doug Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dina, Thanks for the reply.

Auto detecting it would be done by running it when a page loads or on a
timer or any other method that doesnt require the user specifically
initializing it.
Putting it into a cf var...
You would need to send it back to a cf page via a post, get or simply
document.location to a page passing it along in the url and grab it from
there.
Something like...
document.location = 'mypage.cfm?res=' + Screen.width + 'x' + Screen.height;
then mypage.cfm could read the url var 'url.res'
and of course there is always AJAX.

This will trim the text (str) at the specified length (trimat) and then
delete everything AFTER the last space it finds. This way no words get cut

account when trimming the length.

if(len(str) gt trimat)

// Remove any html tags so they arent counted in the length
str = rereplace(str, .*?, , all);
//Cut the text at the desired length
str = left(str, trimat);
//Delete everything after the last space character
str = listdeleteat(str, listlen(str, ), );
//Add '...' to the end to indicate that there is more to

I searched around a bit before writing this post, and I found a little bit of material alluding to there being some font problems with cfdocument in 7.0, but it wasn't clear to me that Updater 1 really fixed it, as there seem to be some more recent hotfixes for the same problem. I really couldn't find a good summary of the whole issue. Bottom line: I'm running MX 7 (version 7,0,0,91690 -- again, no jokes about behind the times; I believe in not fixing it if it ain't broke, but now it's broke) on Linux. Can anybody tell me what I have to do to get my cfdocument-produced PDFs to pay attention to my font tags? -- Larry Afrin Medical University of South Carolina [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:255945 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Re: CF - Javascript Monitor Resolution help
Just a suggestion, but since Flash is vector based and scales
exceptionally well, why don't you just use the javascript to change
the height/width in your object tag, or pass it as a script var if
you're using FlashObject(http://blog.deconcept.com/flashobject/).
That would seem to be a bit more elegant solution than having to deal
with it on the server level.

Putting it into a cf var...
You would need to send it back to a cf page via a post, get or simply
document.location to a page passing it along in the url and grab it
from
there.
Something like...
document.location = 'mypage.cfm?res=' + Screen.width + 'x' +
Screen.height;
then mypage.cfm could read the url var 'url.res'
and of course there is always AJAX.

Good Snake, now. how do I get it to be an
'autodetect' and pased into a CF variable?
I was considering either making it a function
or CFC or placing in the application.cfc file.
dg
Screen.width
And
Screen.height
E.G.
A HREF=javascript:alert('Your resolution is
'+screen.width+'x'+screen.height);
Click for your screen resolution/A

Subject: CF - Javascript Monitor Resolution help
This may be OT and if it is, I'll gladly move it to another group.
I need to be able to determine (via javascript) preferably the user's
monitor resolution.
I have a client who wishes to have a FLASH animation that fills
the browser
banner area as much as possible so that a user on with a setting
of 1024
wide doesn't have excessive whitespace around an 760 pixel wide
banner.
I have looked around at several javascripts scripts that can do
this but...
1) I admit my complete inadequacy in javascript (I can read it and
butch it
up) and
2) I can't seem to do a decent job of getting my javascript to send a
variable value BACK to my CFMX7 page.
Any help? Oh, and I am tossing in some cash for the help (hence
why this
may
be an OT / Job )! If there is an elegant way of even doing it in
Flash,
that is an option as well
