I have a menu list of books and would like to have it list each title 
alphabetically BUT only display the listing for one letter.

For instance, the menu page would have A-Z listed and when a user clicks on A 
all the titles with A would list. I realize I have to add a where to the 
statement, but how do I isolate the first letter of the book title?

Here is my query:

cfquery name=Getbook datasource=printprices
SELECT * FROM bookinfo
order by booktitle
/cfquery

Thanks!

RE: Strange security problem with googlebot

2006-10-10 Thread Matt Quackenbush

Okay, call me silly, but what kind of code exactly can cause this problem?
I've been around since v4, but don't have a clue to what you're referring.
I feel rather sheepish even asking, but am most certainly curious as hell to
know... so I asked nonetheless.  :-)


Thanks

You hit it..
it was the web accelerator.

  I now know that I should not let a simple clicked link change anything.
Both of these sites were written in cold fusion version 2 and 3 when I
didn't know better:)  WAY too many pages to go back and change them now. I
thought since it was password protected, it would be safe.
I even tested it years ago with link checkers to make sure they couldn't get
in.

RE: book title listing

What data base are you using?  In MS SQL you can use LEFT like so:
where left(booktitle, 1) = 'A'

This might be the same in the other Databases, not sure.

RDS uses HTTP through your web server. So, you'll need whatever port your
web server is using (TCP/80 by default). The default FTP port is TCP/21.

Re: FlashPaper vs PDF

2006-10-10 Thread Greg Fuller

 The FlashPaper 2 output you get as a result (espcially with the
latest FlashPlayer 9
player) is very, very, good and very lightweight.

The hugh advantage to flashpaper is the almost instantanious
rendering.  The disadvantage is that small fonts appear overly
anti-aliased.  I had a client who wanted to use it but we couldn't
solve the font problem.  It reminded me of the early days of PDFs,
when fonts were fuzzy. If you stick to large fonts, the rendering
looks great.

Damon, are  small fonts crisper in Flashpaper rendered with Player 9 ?

 Actuall, JD, ColdFusion dynamically generates both PDF and FlashPaper SWF

 While you are correct that the FlashPaper product used a printer-driver 
 technology, we chose a different route that yields super-high quality fonts, 
 etc natively as a Flex app would, directly aseembling the documents 
 ourselves, without using the proiblematic printer driver approach.

 -Damon

 Macromedia FlashPaper was a printer driver which could turn documents
 (including PDF) to SWF. The document would display in a Macromedia shell
 SWF with viewing chrome. I haven't heard of any news with FlashPaper
 since the Adobe acquisition.
 
 For forms, though, Adobe Reader is much stronger. FlashPaper treats
 something as a document, but Acrobat offers significant forms technology.
 
 One wrinkle here is that Adobe Reader 8.0, announced last week and in
 public release this autumn, can archive filled forms to local storage.
 Previous versions of Reader could let you fill and submit forms for
 remote storage, but the 8.0 client adds local archiving.
 
 
 
  Are there any known stats for percent users with Adobe Reader vs
  MacrAdobe Flash installed ?
 
 Adobe Flash Player is by far the world's most widely-deployed
 software... the new Flash Player 9 is looking to have been adopted by
 about 50% of internet consumers within three months of its release,
 which is almost an incomprehensible rate of adoption.
 http://blog.digitalbackcountry.com/?p=498
 
 While Macromedia commissioned NPD consumer audits and did
 version-tracking, Adobe did not, and so we don't have good
 version-to-version stats for Adobe Reader yet. Reader and Acrobat have
 had a bit more corporate acceptance than Player has had, though... both
 are de facto standards in the world today.

Dynamic flash or images for MySpace?

2006-10-10 Thread Xtendboy25

I am trying to take realtime text data from my website and allow users to  
place it on their MySpace profile.  But MySpace only its members to add  HTML, 
images, and flash to their profiles so I have been trying to output the  text 
data from my site as a JPG or Flash that MySpace users can then add to  their 
profiles.  Then I figure can set up a scheduled task to refresh  the JPG or 
Flash, so the latest data will appear on MySpace.  
 
I have had some success using CFCHART and saving the output to the server  
via writing to CFFILE, but in this case I am trying to display mostly dynamic  
text from the database.  Therefore, I really don't need the chart that is  
produced, so I am using imagemagick to crop out the chart an just keep the text 
 
that is produced from CFCHART. But this 2 step process would  be unnecessary if 
I could just output text from the database to an  image like CFCHART does 
(but without the chart). 
 
If elaborate 3-D charts can be created with ColdFusion, surely there is a  
way for me to just output text from my database into an image or flash for 
later 
 use with MySpace, right?
 
Thanks in advance

Never mind -- it actually works just fine.  It turns out that the encrypted

RC2/Base64.

 I've followed the TechNote (http://www.adobe.

 to get RC2 encryption/decryption to work.  I keep getting last block

 fine for RC4.  What am I doing wrong?
 
 #Decrypt(M5Kbj6C5nsmJRQ==, '12345678', 'RC2', 'Base64')#
 
 This works without a hitch:
 
 #Encrypt(testing123, '12345678', 'RC4', 'Base64')# (outputs

 #Decrypt(s/BfPyimOCBlqg==, '12345678', 'RC4', 'Base64')# (outputs

Re: Dynamic flash or images for MySpace?

2006-10-10 Thread Deanna Schneider

You can make a simple flash file that will read in XML. Is the text
the same for everyone, but changes periodically? If so, it's super
easy.

Here's a quickie example. This is probably not the best ever example
of flash code, as I'm just learning it. But you'll get the idea:

On your first frame have code like so.
loadText();

// Load the variables from the text file
function loadText() {
var textXML = new XML();
textXML.ignoreWhite = true;

textXML.load(URL of your CFM page here that outputs XML dynamically);
text.XML.onLoad = function (success) {
if (success) {
ontextXMLLoaded(this);
}
};
}



function ontextXMLLoaded(loadedXML) {

// grab the setup node to get the basic set up data
var arNodes = loadedXML.firstChild.childNodes;

var setUpNodes = arNodes[0].childNodes;

var dynamic_text = setUpNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;  //Get your
text here. This path will depend on your xml

// Do something here to set the now grabbed dynamic_text to output
on your movie in a field called txtField
txtField.text = dynamic_text;

}

 images, and flash to their profiles so I have been trying to output the  text
 data from my site as a JPG or Flash that MySpace users can then add to  their
 profiles.  Then I figure can set up a scheduled task to refresh  the JPG or
 Flash, so the latest data will appear on MySpace.

 I have had some success using CFCHART and saving the output to the server
 via writing to CFFILE, but in this case I am trying to display mostly dynamic
 text from the database.  Therefore, I really don't need the chart that is
 produced, so I am using imagemagick to crop out the chart an just keep the 
 text
 that is produced from CFCHART. But this 2 step process would  be unnecessary 
 if
 I could just output text from the database to an  image like CFCHART does
 (but without the chart).

 If elaborate 3-D charts can be created with ColdFusion, surely there is a
 way for me to just output text from my database into an image or flash for 
 later
  use with MySpace, right?

Re: FckEditor / JS

2006-10-10 Thread Zoh Bha

Hi Bobby:

Thanks a ton for the line
FCKeditorAPI.__Instances['instanceNameHere'].GetHTML();

It worked for my purpose. I was trying to get the content of the editor in my 
javascript.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Gareth. The problem is actually triggering a function when the content of
the editor changes not actually reading the content. As for just reading the
content, I figured that would be stored in the hidden text field that FCK
creates. If I'm wrong about that, then I'm pretty sure this will get the
content at anytime:

FCKeditorAPI.__Instances['instanceNameHere'].GetHTML();

You'll need to pull this apart to get it to work for you but below is the JS

I use to check an FCK instance isn't empty. So, you should be able to update

your div with secondFrame.body.innerHTML.

firstFrame = 
document.getElementById(FCKeditor1___Frame).contentWindow.document;
secondFrame = 
firstFrame.getElementById(eEditorArea).contentWindow.document;

What I have is a textarea. As you type in the text area, a div tag is
updated with the textarea's content creating a 'live preview'. I need to
change that textarea to the FCKEditor but keep the live preview.

The problem is that I don't have the same control over the onchcnage and
onkeyup attributes of the hidden field that the FCKEditor creates as I do
the normal textarea.

I tried using setAttribute('onchange'), 'myfunction()') on the hidden field
but no such luck.

Can anyone offer any help here?

It wasn't, and didn't. The original poster had Google Web Accelerator

Dave,

Thanks for the reply.  I guess I first should've gone and checked to see
what 'web accelerator' was, and then I might have understood.  I guess my
main question now is: what is considered the best antidote for such a
problem.  Since I didn't know what it was, I obviously don't use web
accelerator, but I can see how someone else using my sites might be.  I
generally use forms for such things, but have probably used links at one
time or another.  Is a forms solution safe?


Thanks,

Tricky Form validation Question (for me at least)

2006-10-10 Thread Les Mizzell

This is probably going to take more javascript than I know how to do, 
since I suck at javascript...

First page of a multi-part form has a drop-down of admin namex to pick from.


select name=selectAdmin
  option value=xoxOther - Enter Information Below!/option
cfloop query=AIData
  option value=#MyData.AdminEmail##MyData.AdminNam1#/option
/cfloop
/select

If you ain't in the list, then you should fill in adminNAME and 
adminEMAIL text fields below that.


I've not quit figured out how to validate this on one page. If Other 
is picked in the select, then I need validation for adminNAME and 
adminEMAIL to happen before the form can be submitted. If Other 
ain't picked, then ignore them...

I can check for this on the NEXT page of the form and force them to fill 
in the blanks there, but I want it to take place all on the first page.

RE: Missing Template Handler

I believe that the missing template handler can handle a lot of
ColdFusion tag code, but it cannot throw back to the original site...
Meaning, you can run CF on the template (ie. CFMail) but you cannot have
it in the given site template... Unless you do some snazzy include logic
perhaps. But, I may be way off on that.

Yes, since the Web Accelerator only makes GET requests. In HTTP, GET requests 
shouldn't make changes; only POST requests should do that.

I am just playing with this in my head.  Would a form with method=get be 
affected by the accelerator, or only anchors with get parameters built in to 
the href parameter?

Re: Tricky Form validation Question (for me at least)

2006-10-10 Thread Charlie Griefer

if (
 (document.yourFormName.selectAdmin.selectedIndex == 0) 
 (
  (document.yourFormName.theTextFieldName.value == ) ||
  (document.yourFormName.theTextFieldEmail.value == )
 )
   )
{
 alert('you did it all wrong!');
 return false;
}

this assumes that the 'Other' option will always be the first option
in the select list.  if this changes, you can modify the first line of
the 'if' as so:

if (
 
(document.yourFormName.selectAdmin.options[document.yourFormName.selectAdmin.selectedIndex]
..value== xox) 

etc

 I've not quit figured out how to validate this on one page. If Other

 I can check for this on the NEXT page of the form and force them to fill

Select elements do not have a value property.  Replace value with
selectedIndex (use this capitalization) and the above code should work
fine.

Actually, 'value' works as long as you give it the value from the form
instead of the index.

Re: Tricky Form validation Question (for me at least)

2006-10-10 Thread Josh Nathanson

If you are looking for client side validation, CFFORM/CFINPUT is your 
friend.  You don't need to know any javascript to use it, CF writes the 
Javascript for you.  Check the live- or quick-docs for specific usage.

If you are looking to make things a bit more fancy, you could throw an 
onChange event on your select list that would have the second fields 
disabled unless other was selected.  It would be something like

select name=selectAdmin onChange=if (this[this.selectedIndex].value != 
'xox') {document.formname.adminName.disabled = true; 
document.formname.adminEMAIL.disabled = true;}
else {document.formname.adminName.disabled = false; 
document.formname.adminEMAIL.disabled = false;}

That would give your users the info visually that they didn't need to fill 
out the second fields if they are not other.

You would still need to use CFFORM to do validation on the second two fields 
in the case of other.

RE: Missing Template Handler

I think you are referring to the page that you specify in the CF Admin
Settings page for Missing Template Handler.  

I can't remember if I found anyplace that specified exactly what was
allowed, but what I have in mine is the following code, which works
great.

cfmail to= from= subject=Template Error type=html
strongHTTP_REFERER: /strong#cgi.HTTP_REFERER#br /
strongHTTP_USER_AGENT: /strong#cgi.HTTP_USER_AGENT#br /
strongSCRIPT_NAME: /strong#cgi.SCRIPT_NAME#br /

strongREMOTE_HOST: /strong#cgi.REMOTE_HOST#br /
strongQUERY_STRING: /strong#cgi.QUERY_STRING#br /
strongHTTP_HOST: /strong#cgi.HTTP_HOST#br /
/cfmail

That usually sends me everything I need to know to fix the problem.

I haven't used it, so I can only speculate. That said, I suspect that it
only follows A tags.

I believe if the missing template handler throws an error then it hits the
sitewide error handler.  It may be good to make these homogenous in look and
feel.

 Meaning, you can run CF on the template (ie. CFMail) but you cannot have
 it in the given site template... Unless you do some snazzy include logic
 perhaps. But, I may be way off on that.

select elements via the options array.  i've seen people access the
value directly (and i know it works in newer browsers)...but when i
cry a little :)

i have looked into it to see if it's valid (standard) or not...i've

i know newer browsers will support it, but i still don't know if it's

RE: Strange security problem with googlebot

2006-10-10 Thread Al Musella, DPM

Actually, in my defense:)
 the web accelerator is not supposed to follow a link that has a 
query parameter...  and it worked correctly for a long 
time..  apparently a recent update to it introduced a bug where it IS 
following links with query parameters.  I reported it to google.



It wasn't, and didn't. The original poster had Google Web Accelerator
installed, which is basically a browser plug-in that prefetches pages for
you. If you're logged in, it's logged in. The original poster was logged in,
and went to a page that contained all these links that would trigger
database changes, etc, and the Web Accelerator requested them all because
that's what it's supposed to do.

Rick Dennis

The basic problem is that the status_required field is there to make use
of CF's magicform validation
(see http://tinyurl.com/atn87) - so you won't be able to handle this after
the page is submitted, since cf's magic code will run before anything you
can do (not sure about code in the OnRequestStart method of the
Application.cfc)

I'd say:
1) remove the field completely and implement your own server side validation
(status is required unless [checkbox]). This assumes that you're already
doing some kind of server side validation, so that you can slot this in
without too much trouble.

2) Redirect from javascript:

Of course, the users lose all the information they entered into the form...

3) use javascript to disable/enable the hidden field (this is a wild guess,
haven't tested but should work). If the field is disabled, the value is not
sent to the back end, and so the magic validation rule requiring the
presence of the statusfield never fires... Plus you still have access to
all the other stuff they filled in.

Anyone of these should work fine as the first if() in the function I
posted...

if(document.forms[0].selectAdmin.selectedIndex == 0) {}

if(document.forms[0].selectAdmin.options[0].selected) {}

if(document.forms[0].selectAdmin.value == 'xox') {} 

They seem to all work well across the board for me.

Ben Nadel wrote:

Ben:

As of the 1.5 standard, I don't believe JavaScript (ECMAScript, whatever)
included a value property for form elements.  As others have said, I've
always used selectedIndex on the options array to get the selected option,
and then referenced that option's value as in:

var formEle = getElementById('formName');
alert(formEle.options[formEle.selectedIndex].value);

All that said, it could be that either value has simply become a
non-standard property to the form element or, because of newer browser's
implementations of the DOM, it has become a semi-standard property.  I
haven't been able to find any standards that suggest its status one way or
the other.  I also didn't spend too much time looking 8^).

According to the latest standards I've seen, value is not standard.  This
could have changed but, because there are so may other ways to get to it and
none of us seem to know for sure whether or not it has become a new addition
to a standard, I'll stick with the other ways of doing it.  But that's
obviously a choice that everyone will have to make on their own.

If anyone decides to do some more testing on this, I'd be interested in
knowing if the form element's value is read/write or read only.  I would
suspect that it's read only but it would be interesting to find out what
happens if you try to write to the property.

2006-10-10 Thread coldfusion . developer

What's your opinion on this?

Our Web hosting company built a few custom cf application for this company 
before 
I came on board. The Webhosting company developed these applications within a 
multi-application framework and not self contained application. I've done 
mostly MVC
and Fusbox and I'm getting up to speed on ModelGlue, Cold Spring, etc.  

I asked the hosting company if they had any documentation.  Not of the 
methodology,
but just something that would layout some structure to their framework. Without 
any guidance, 
it will be an additional challenge to follow their application framework 
flow/process.
They said they don't have any documentation, yet ehy've given me full acess to 
all the Cf
code and the related tables.  Shouldn't they provide some basic roadmap?
 
It's been my experience that any good development team would have some 
documentation
on large projects they create. Isn't it good development practice to leaves 
clues for developers 
replacing original coders or developers that want to scale an existing 
application? My thoughts 
are they're trying to protect their potential future revenue stream from the 
company.

Granted, I'm not a seasoned CF-OO developer yet, but shouldn't they have

RE: Tricky Form validation Question (for me at least)

 As of the 1.5 standard, I don't believe JavaScript 
 (ECMAScript, whatever) included a value property for form 
 elements.

Well, strictly speaking, this isn't a JavaScript thing as much as an HTML
DOM thing. It's up to the DOM to specify what's what in the browser. In the
case of SELECT fields:

http://www.w3schools.com/htmldom/dom_obj_select.asp

According to this, the VALUE attribute is available for SELECT, and is
writeable. I've never tried to do this, though. I still refer to the values
of options through the options array, because originally that was the only
thing that would work in both Netscape and IE.

 If anyone decides to do some more testing on this, I'd be 
 interested in knowing if the form element's value is 
 read/write or read only.  I would suspect that it's read only 
 but it would be interesting to find out what happens if you 
 try to write to the property.

If the above URL is correct, it's writeable. Again, though, if I want to
change an option's value, I just delete and recreate the option using the
Option constructor.

Boy that sucks!! Did they at least comment their code so htat you have at
least some indication as to what everything is suppose to do? If so, that is
more than likely all you are going to get from them. And yes, they should
provide docs on what they are doing or did. I worked for  a helpdesk
company, and the owner would not even consider hiring a developer without
them agreeing to indepth code documentaion. They ended up using a FB coder
and all worked well.

RE: cfblog.com

You might be thinking of 
http://www.instantspot.com/

And no, I can't get cfblog.com to load either.

 Is cfblog.com the new free CF blogging site that was mentioned on here
 a while back? If so, is any one else having problems loading the site?

RE: Tricky Form validation Question (for me at least)

Yes, the GUI updates, in both Firefox and IE.  Setting the value to an
invalid option is just ignored in Firefox, but in IE the select list is
set to blank (nothing selected).

 And the GUI updates to reflect the change?  What happens if 
 you try to set
 it to a value that is not included in the select list?

RE: Am I off base ?

2006-10-10 Thread Tom Kitta

In near perfect world there would be good documentation for every
application you were asked to modify. However, it is too common to find
applications that have 1000's of templates and 100+ tables without any
documentation and even very skimpy inline comments.

For some reasons the management frequently things documentation and planning
are not work - even at development oriented shops.

Subject: Am I off base ?


What's your opinion on this?

Our Web hosting company built a few custom cf application for this company
before
I came on board. The Webhosting company developed these applications within
a
multi-application framework and not self contained application. I've done
mostly MVC
and Fusbox and I'm getting up to speed on ModelGlue, Cold Spring, etc.

I asked the hosting company if they had any documentation.  Not of the
methodology,
but just something that would layout some structure to their framework.
Without any guidance,
it will be an additional challenge to follow their application framework
flow/process.
They said they don't have any documentation, yet ehy've given me full acess
to all the Cf
code and the related tables.  Shouldn't they provide some basic roadmap?

It's been my experience that any good development team would have some
documentation
on large projects they create. Isn't it good development practice to leaves
clues for developers
replacing original coders or developers that want to scale an existing
application? My thoughts
are they're trying to protect their potential future revenue stream from the
company.

Granted, I'm not a seasoned CF-OO developer yet, but shouldn't they have
discussed
the this in more detail?

Thanks

Yeah, but even good developers may have bad managers ...
