Re: PostgreSQL vs. MSSQL
Jon, Thanks for the reply. Do you currently run MySQL and/or PostgreSQL on Windows boxes? If so, what version(s) for both the db server and windows servers? The cost is currently not an issue, although it certainly has the potential to become one in the relatively near future, at the current database growth rate. Thus my looking into my options :-) Also, just to clarify on the case-sensitivity point you made, am I correctly understanding that the following query **typically** would not have any issues? cfquery SELECT my_field FROM my_table; /cfquery Even if the field was named as 'my_Field' (minus the quotes) in the database?

Re: PostgreSQL vs. MSSQL
Matt Quackenbush wrote: Thanks for the reply. I forgot to post his specific gripes about it. Here is a quick summary: - non-standard sql I think that depends on what you call 'standard sql'. To me, standard SQL is what is defined in ISO/IEC 9075 and few do better then PostgreSQL in that respect. But if you take 'standard sql' to mean 'the SQL in product X', you may discover many differences. - difficult to backup / migrate What is difficult about scheduling pg_dumpall -f dumpfile? For migration he may have a point. PostgreSQL will not allow you to shut down the database, pack up the data files, put them on another machine and start up there. While this technically is possible in some circumstances, it is not a documented procedure because it is guaranteed not to work when you move from for instance Windows to an AIX mainframe. Other products that only run on limited platforms and do not have to worry about memory alignment and the endianness of the host operating system do not have this limitation. - user authenication is weak PostgreSQL allows the DBA to use anything from no authentication to Kerberos and you can even create single-signon with a Windows domain. User authentication is as weak as the DBA configured it to be. And if we extend this to security in general you might want to Google a bit. PostgreSQL is highly regarded for its security track record and is often an example to other databases. For instance, while many databases install themselves under an account with elevated privileges by default even when that is technically not necessary, PostgreSQL refuses to run if it has more permissions then it needs. - difficult to setup http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/oracle/115560 - difficult to manage To manage PostgreSQL you need to do a few things that are clearly spelled out in the manual: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/maintenance.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/backup.html Again I would have to ask what is so hard about setting up a scheduled task.

RE: A question about CFCFactory objects as a singleton ....
Hi Mike I would take the approach of passing the user object in as part of your DAO save (or create and update) method. cfset widgetDAO = application.factory.getBean(WidgetDAO) cfset widgetDAO.save(widget,session.currentUser) Just as you only need a singleton factory, you also only need singleton DAOs. Best regards Kevan Stannard -Original Message- From: Mike Kear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 9 January 2007 5:24 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: A question about CFCFactory objects as a singleton yes as a matter of routine, my tables usually have fields for: createdby (the userid of the person who created this record) datecreated (timestamp) updatedby (The userid of the last person to alter this record) dateupdated (timestamp) So the methods in the DAOs that manipulate the records need to be told who's doing it. Since DAOs dont know anything about the application, request or session scopes, they have to be told what they need to know. In this case they dont need to know the curent time (thats from the getdate() function in the database) but they do need to know the userid of the person initiating this action.My question was about the best way to pass this info in, since the application doesnt .instantiate the dao directly, but through a CFCFactory which knows everything it needs to know to instantiate any CFC required. When someone logs in, there is a userbean created in their session scope, containing their name, userid, access rights and lots more depending on what else happens in this site. So the question is about this .if there is only one CFCFactory created as a singleton in the Application scope, all the users on the site are using the same instance of the CFC to instantiate whatever CFCS they need. Each time, the CFC being created will need to be told who's the user, so it can update any records it needs to update correctly. Or perhaps it's better to pass the userID into each method as it's called rather than into the init method of the DAO cfc. The options in my first post were the ones that came to mind as i wrote it, but there are probably other possibilities What's brought this to mind now is that i'm working on an app that will have maybe 150-200 concurrent users, all accessing, creating and updating records. In the past i've had plenty of reasonably high traffic sites, but none with that many users creating and updating records simultaniously. The high traffic has all been in the read only category,with the write/update being one or two people at a time max. Under those low traffic situations it doesnt really matter to have everyone with their own CFCFactory. One or two fo them in RAM isnt a big deal 100-200 of them would definitely have a performance hit on the site so i can't do that here. Thats' the background to my question.

What happens if getsite does not return any rows? If you have that covered and getsite.id is a numeric type in the database, it is technically OK to leave it in. Performance is another issue. In general, if you want the DB to be able to reuse an execution plan, convert this to a cfqueryparam. If you don't want the database to reuse the execution plan, don't convert it.

Who knows, maybe because they liked their name better? SQL Server also supports COALESCE. And, while the two are very similar, they aren't identical in functionality.

Once again, though if you don't quote the table names in the script, Pg will automatically take care of lower casing that for you when you run the Create's.

You're right on both counts, Dave. My main point was that MS even bothered to make a non-standard function. IIRC, Coalesce does more than isNull, but the basic thing that most people use isNull() for is this: isNull(mname,'blank') so you don't have nulls in your return values, and this works the same as coalesce. However, I can't justly bash MS for this, because Oracle, MySQL and DB2 have proprietary functions for this as well. I just wanted to point out that all the popular DB platforms have non-standard SQL to some degree. -- My Sites: http://www.techfeed.net/blog/ http://www.cfquickdocs.com/ http://cfformprotect.riaforge.org/ ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

farcry_core/admin/edittabedit.cfm. It's the one that sends the
commands to the TinyMCE js functions on inserting HTML. You may be
able to dial down to the problem though the function calls in there.

FarCry 3.01, TinyMCE 2.0.8.
I just got an answer on the FarCry list - he has the same issue and
claims it's an IE JS bug - which my test seem to confirm. In
Firefox the
cursor position within TinyMCE is remembered, in IE 7 and 6 the
position
is not remembered. Argh..looks like I'll have to jump into the JS.
Or
just tell them to use Firefox. ;)
But, still any help would be appreciated - am not excactely the

Adrian,
I just did a test on one of my live sites running FarCry v3.1 and
one
on my dev box running a beta of v4 with no problems. The cursor
position seems to be remebered as long as you don't click on
anything
else between the textarea and right-clicking the site tree object.
Which version of TinyMCE and FarCry is this site on?

We've implemented TinyMCE in our FarCry 3 CMS. Implementation and
settings all work without a problem so far. There is one matter
however,
that derails some of our contributors.The FarCry Admin is built
with
frames. When editing the body of a document (with TinyMCE in the
'main'
frame) the user can right-click a particular page in the navigation
tree
('navigation' frame) and choose 'insert' - which will add the link
to
that page to the document body (TinyMCE). It basically works all
ok,
however when doing this the current cursor position within TinyMCE
is
not being remembered and the link is simply added at the top of the
page. This causes CSS class issues, which are a bit difficult to
deal
with for the rather html/css-illiterate contributors.How can I
easily
make TinyMCE 'remember' the cursor position when leaving the frame
so
that the link will be inserted there? Has anyone come up with a
solution
to this? Is even anybody out there who works with the FarCry 3 /
TinyMCE
combination?Thanks for your help.

Re: Needed: opinions on use of reserved words
I'm pretty sure you can use the brackets around the column name in queries from Access tables also. Not so sure how far this fix would go though--updates to the tables, etc.? If it were me, I'd require them to rework to avoid the reserved words. That's just plain bad practice. It would not be hard to grep or wingrep which template or queries use the wrong columns names and replace them with just a slight variation. SQL Server does this nicely by putting square brackets around reserved word columns. I am not sure that is Access compatible. e.i. [year] ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

However, why pay for a database like that when you can get essentially the same thing for free? I've got nothing but positive things to say about PostgreSQL, and I'd be very interested to hear what your friend has against it. In my experience, usually these kinds of opinions are derived from a lack of understanding about how something operates. With PostgreSQL, there are two items that generally end up as road blocks for most MS SQL users who try it out. 1) User permissions: PostgreSQL is not forgiving as far as user/access permissions go. This is both good (for security purposes) and bad (because it can be frustrating to learn). However, like most things, once you understand how it's permission system works, it's not that difficult - it's just different. 2) Case sensitivity: Unlike MS SQL, PostgreSQL is a case sensitive database. This can be the deciding factor when choosing to port an application from MS SQL to PostgreSQL. If you have a database called User in PostgreSQL, your queries will need to have that database name in quotes. Here's an example: Database: User Field Names: ID, UserName, Password MS SQL Query: CFQUERY name=GetUser datasource=MSSQL SELECT id, username, password FROM user /CFQUERY PostgreSQL Query: CFQUERY name=GetUser datasource=PostgreSQL SELECT ID, UserName, Password FROM User /CFQUERY In our shop we user lowercase names for everything in our databases, so I haven't had to do that for a long time when working with PostgreSQL. As such, I cannot remember if it was single quotes, or double-quotes that I had to use when dealing with names that had uppercase values in them. Still, you get the idea. With the exception of those two items, PostgreSQL is wonderful. The price is great, the performance is great, and the community support is great. I would highly recommend PostgreSQL to *anyone* looking for a high-performance, low cost alternative to MS SQL. Hope this helps!

App Organizational Question...
Hi, all. Would it be better to identify users of a common app by CGI.HTTP_HOST and put in my Application.cfm (yes, .cfm. CF 4.5 here) lines such as: CFIF CGI.HTTP_HOST contains bodaford_homes.com CFSET DSN = bodaford_homes CFIF or Should I automate the process of DSN identification by using a MID function to select the domain name from the CGI.HTTP_HOST variable. (Pseudo code, because I can't remember right off how to select the string to the left of the last . in the domain name). :o/ ) CFSET DSN = (characters to the left of the last . and, if present, after the next . to the left, or the / to the left of the domain, in case someone types in the URL without using www, such as http://bodafordhomes.com) With this second approach, I don't have to modify the .cfm every time I add a new client to use the app. The first approach requires a new CFIF statement based on the domain name and DSN that I set up. Which way would be preferable? Pitfalls to each? Perhaps a better approach than either of these two? (It's too bad CF 8 isn't out now so I could make this major shift in how I develop apps along with learning to employ CF8. but alas, I have to strike while the iron's hot.)

Getting changed fields from database using an audit table
Hi folks, The environment is SQL Server 2000 and CFMX 7.0.1 Here's the scenario. I have two tables. One is the primary table of data (let's call it USERS), the other is a table (say, USERS_UPDATED) with identical columns that stores a date in each column representing the last updated date of the corresponding column in the Users table. The USERS table also has a single lastupdated field. I am looking for the most efficient way to extract all changed fields from USERS from a given date, using the date values in USERS_UPDATED. Now, the issue isn't getting the information - I have working code to do this. The issue is performance with large resultsets. Currently, I am 1. selecting the records from USERS with lastupdated = (some date) 2. selecting the corresponding records from USERS_UPDATED 3. Looping over the result of the USERS query 4. within the USERS loop, looping over the list of columns, and comparing the date in USERS_UPDATED with (some date) to build the output result. Works fine until there are a lot of changed records in the USERS table for the provided date. A couple of real numbers: USERS has 89 columns. There are ~12000 updated records. This means my current code does 12000*89 loop iterations or 1068000 total iterations. It's WAY too slow for our needs. There has to be a better approach, but I am coming up blank.

RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table
Try joining the two user tables rather than doing tons of single-row queries on the updated table. Unfortunately you will have to alias all of the columns from one of the tables to get unique column names. (You might do a single query of the users table that returns zero records just to get the column names... Then you could build the aliasing SQL in code and then just execute it.)

RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table
Sorry if I was unclear: I'm not doing any single row queries...here's
the code which may make it clearer.
It's a bit out of context, since this is part of a CFC which is being
called as a web service. I'm making it procedural for simplicity:
The queries (no performance issues here - they execute quite fast
enough):
!--- This is to get the column list from USER_UPDATE, which has fewer
columns that USERS ---
cfquery name=collist datasource=#application.ds# maxrows=1
select * from user_update
/cfquery
!--- Using an Array here, rather than just the columnlist list. An
attempt to improve performance in the loops at the end ---
cfloop list=#collist.columnlist# index=i
cfset ArrayAppend(variables.columns,i)
/cfloop
cfquery name=getusers datasource=#application.ds#
select #collist.columnlist# from USERS
where lastupdated = cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_date
value=#createodbcdate(since)#
order by userid
/cfquery
cfset variables.userRecords = getusers
!--- The subquery here may seem redundant when I could just use
valuelist and the pk result from the previous query, but with 12000
results, this way is MUCH faster than a huge list string) ---
cfquery name=getupdated datasource=#application.ds#
select * from USERS_UPDATE
where userid IN (select userid from users
where lastupdated = cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_date
value=#createodbcdate(since)#)
/cfquery
cfset variables.updatedRecords = getUpdated
Now, the loops to generate what I need. I am doing this entirely in
cfscript, again for performance:
cfscript
var since = arguments.sincedate;

Subject: RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table
Try joining the two user tables rather than doing tons of single-row
queries on the updated table. Unfortunately you will have to alias
all
of the columns from one of the tables to get unique column names.
(You
might do a single query of the users table that returns zero records
just to get the column names... Then you could build the aliasing SQL
in
code and then just execute it.)

Remove datefield calendar icon
I'm making a flash form that contains an input field of type datefield, which puts in that cool little flash calendar date selector.

I have a site on my laptop under Nascar. The CFC directory is Nascar.cfc. On the live server though the root directory is SynergyDale. So of course my CFC's cannot be found.

Re: CFC Question
Straight from livedocs http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/buildi12.htm Specifying the CFC location When you instantiate or invoke a component, you can specify the component name only, or you can specify a *qualified* path. To specify a qualified path, separate the directory names with periods, not slashes; for example, myApp.cfcs.myComponent specifies the component defined in myApp\cfcs\myComponent.cfc. ColdFusion uses the following rules to find the specified CFC. - If you use a cfinvokehttp://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-p67.htm#wp2650065or cfobjecthttp://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-pb5.htm#wp1810139tag, or the CreateObjecthttp://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/functi42.htm#wp1102241function to access the CFC from a CFML page, ColdFusion searches directories in the following order: 1. Local directory of the calling CFML page 2. Directories specified on the ColdFusion Mappings page of the ColdFusion MX Administrator 3. Web root 4. Directories specified on Custom Tag Paths page of the Administrator If you specify only a component name, ColdFusion searches each of these directories, in turn, for the component. *Note: *If you use only the component name to specify the CFC, ColdFusion does not search the directories specified in the Administrator on the ColdFusion Mappings page. If you specify a qualified path that starts with a mapped directory name, ColdFusion does find the component. If you specify a qualified path, such as myApp.cfcs.myComponent, ColdFusion looks for a directory matching the first element of the path in each of these directories (in this example, myApp). If it finds a matching directory, it then looks for a file in the specified path beneath that directory, such as myApp\cfcs\myComponent.cfc relative to each of these directories. *Note: *If ColdFusion finds a directory that matches the first path element, but does not find a CFC under that directory, ColdFusion returns a not found error and does *not* search for another directory. - If you invoke a CFC method remotely, using a specific URL, form field, Flash Remoting MX, or a web service invocation, ColdFusion looks in the specified path relative to the web root. For form fields and URLs specified directly on local web pages, ColdFusion also searches relative to the page directory. *Note: *On UNIX and Linux systems, ColdFusion MX attempts to match a CFC name or Custom tag name with a filename as follows: First, it attempts to find a file with the name that is all lowercase. If it fails, it then tries to find a file whose case matches the CFML case. For example, if you specify cfobject name=myObject Component=myComponent, ColdFusion first looks for mycomponent.cfc and, if it doesn't find it, ColdFusion looks for myComponent.cfc. -- Thank You Dan Vega [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.danvega.org ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

RE: CFC Question
My particular way around this is to set a CFC path variable in the application scope. So I call CFC's like this: cfset application.CFCpath = cfc / Or cfset application.CFCpath = synergydale.cfc / cfobject component=#application.cfcPath#.nascar name=nascarObj Yeah it's extra typing, but is a lot easier to maintain.

RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table
Thanks Unfortunately, simply having the two tables joined doesn't help. The issue isn't getting the correct data, it's simply that to get the output I need, I have to loop over each column in each record to see which column has been updated in a given time period, and output the info about that column. USERS has a single lastupdated column, just so we know when it was updated. USER_UPDATED has most of the same columns as USERS, but each column just holds a date stamp of the last time the corresponding field was updated in USERS The data looks something like this: USERS: UserIDFirstnameLastname ------ 1 John Doe 2 JaneSmith USER_UPDATE: UserIDFirstnameLastname ---- --- 1 07/08/2005 10/31/2006 2 05/10/20067/15/2006 The output I am looking for is this, given an input date of 01/01/2006: UserID FieldNameValue --- --- --- 1 Lastname Doe 2 Firstname Jane 2 Lastname Smith The code produces the exact output I need, so the basic logic is fine (if not as fast as I need it to be). The queries run in a few milliseconds, so they aren't the bottleneck. It's the looping through each column in each record of the resultset to check the updated date of each field when it's 12000 records x 89 columns that's the bottleneck. -Original Message- From: Richard Kroll [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 09, 2007 1:26 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table In a SQL query without the dynamic column list, is this what you are trying to achieve?

GoDaddy Hosting Issue
If anyone plans on using GoDaddy for CF hosting, be careful There are some tags that they do not suport, like CFDUMP. I have in my Application.cfc a cftry-catch block that does a query on a table on only the first row to make sure that there is a connection to the database, and if not it throws a friendly error message to the user and sends me an email. I am dumping the information into the mail. Well it works fine on my test server but gives me a java.lang error message. I checked their support site for this and there is nothing there. So I am assuming they do not support that tag just as they do not support CFOBJECT and some others.

I would look into this a little deeper. There would be no reason for a host to block cfdump. The cfobject tag I understand though.

So I am assuming they do not support that tag just as they do not support CFOBJECT and some others. No big deal since I am not using CFOBJECT anyway, but it sucks that I cannot dump out variables and such if there is an error on the live site. -- Bruce Sorge ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

Jon, Thanks for the clarification. Matt On 1/9/07, Jon Clausen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Jan 9, 2007, at 3:23 AM, Matt Quackenbush wrote: Thanks for the reply. Do you currently run MySQL and/or PostgreSQL on Windows boxes? If so, what version(s) for both the db server and windows servers? Both. 8.2 for Postgres and 5.1 for MySQL.XP Pro and Server 2003 for the OS. Also, just to clarify on the case-sensitivity point you made, am I correctly understanding that the following query **typically** would not have any issues? cfquery SELECT my_field FROM my_table; /cfquery Even if the field was named as 'my_Field' (minus the quotes) in the database? Actually, the other way around. When you convert your tables over to Postgres, you'll have to lowercase them. Once again, though if you don't quote the table names in the script, Pg will automatically take care of lower casing that for you when you run the Create's. Then any queries you have with mixed case names for the table attributes will still run. If you uppercase any of the table/column names, you will have to quote them.

Re: PostgreSQL vs. MSSQL
Jochem, I was hoping that you would respond. I've seen a number of your posts regarding PostgreSQL, and certainly wanted your opinion. :-) We all know what opinions are like, which is why I didn't want to just take my friend's opinion as the end-all official truth. Thanks to you all, I believe that I'm going to give Postgre a shot and see how I like it myself. My intent is to have a dedicated db server (windows server 2003 - std ed.), which will run only the db. However, in a test/dev environment, I don't have that luxury. So, are there any issues that I need to be aware of when running on XP Pro along with IIS and CF 7.x in my dev environment? Thanks, Matt On 1/9/07, Jochem van Dieten [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Matt Quackenbush wrote: Thanks for the reply. I forgot to post his specific gripes about it. Here is a quick summary: - non-standard sql I think that depends on what you call 'standard sql'. To me, standard SQL is what is defined in ISO/IEC 9075 and few do better then PostgreSQL in that respect. But if you take 'standard sql' to mean 'the SQL in product X', you may discover many differences. - difficult to backup / migrate What is difficult about scheduling pg_dumpall -f dumpfile? For migration he may have a point. PostgreSQL will not allow you to shut down the database, pack up the data files, put them on another machine and start up there. While this technically is possible in some circumstances, it is not a documented procedure because it is guaranteed not to work when you move from for instance Windows to an AIX mainframe. Other products that only run on limited platforms and do not have to worry about memory alignment and the endianness of the host operating system do not have this limitation. - user authenication is weak PostgreSQL allows the DBA to use anything from no authentication to Kerberos and you can even create single-signon with a Windows domain. User authentication is as weak as the DBA configured it to be. And if we extend this to security in general you might want to Google a bit. PostgreSQL is highly regarded for its security track record and is often an example to other databases. For instance, while many databases install themselves under an account with elevated privileges by default even when that is technically not necessary, PostgreSQL refuses to run if it has more permissions then it needs. - difficult to setup http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/oracle/115560 - difficult to manage To manage PostgreSQL you need to do a few things that are clearly spelled out in the manual: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/maintenance.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/backup.html Again I would have to ask what is so hard about setting up a scheduled task. In short: you may want to ask him if he is not confusing PostgreSQL with some other database. Your post was most informative, for sure. But there's one thing that you mentioned that I was unaware of that is pretty much an instant turn-off for me: cAsE sEnSiTiViTy.

And, like you said, by focusing more on the model itself, it's 1) alleviating most of the headaches, and 2) helping me understand the other portions s much better.

Design Question.
I think this is a bit of an OOD type question. I'm developing a project for managing structured news content that is currently done with the separate tools for different type of news. I've created a front end I am fairly happy with that allows me to define the structure of each of the news types and a form for entering and editing the specific content is generated. I then see using a DAO concept for storing the content, currently in XML files. But I'm stuck in the middle on a Preview requirement that shows the content formatted as it will be displayed. The trouble I'm having is with taking the form data and structuring it. I envision this as a function of the DAO. Is this a good assumption? If it is, how do I use the DAO to structure the data for the preview step, before it is ready to be committed to data storage? Or is this more a function belonging to a different layer? Should I create a separate function to convert the form data to the storage structure? Do I do this once and send the converted data to the DAO for committing after the preview or send the unstructured form data to the DAO for formatting and storage?

Doug, After seeing your intended output the query will need to change a bit, but I think I understand what you are after.

HTH, Rich Kroll -Original Message- From: Doug Bezona [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 09, 2007 1:59 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table Thanks Unfortunately, simply having the two tables joined doesn't help. The issue isn't getting the correct data, it's simply that to get the output I need, I have to loop over each column in each record to see which column has been updated in a given time period, and output the info about that column. USERS has a single lastupdated column, just so we know when it was updated. USER_UPDATED has most of the same columns as USERS, but each column just holds a date stamp of the last time the corresponding field was updated in USERS The data looks something like this: USERS: UserIDFirstnameLastname ------ 1 John Doe 2 Jane Smith USER_UPDATE: UserIDFirstnameLastname ---- --- 1 07/08/2005 10/31/2006 2 05/10/20067/15/2006 The output I am looking for is this, given an input date of 01/01/2006: UserID FieldNameValue --- --- --- 1 Lastname Doe 2 Firstname Jane 2 Lastname Smith The code produces the exact output I need, so the basic logic is fine (if not as fast as I need it to be). The queries run in a few milliseconds, so they aren't the bottleneck.

Re: Design Question.
Ian, I hope I'm understanding you correctly; but I'm assuming you mean that the form data, taken together, essentially constitutes a record in your data source. If so, I think you want to use a transfer object that receives and carries that data along. While I'm not educated enough to give you a good explanation of transfer objects, value objects and beans, they can all provide an object that lets you move the data around. And you'll find lots of discussion of them on the CFC-DEV list, and on the lists for Model-Glue, Mach-II, Reactor, Transfer, et al. In your case, you'd need to place the form data into the transfer object (if it's a bean, it would have methods like getHeadline() and setHeadline(), for instance). Some frameworks like Model-Glue and Mach-II can populate these objects automatically as long as the form field names match the names in the bean. Once you have the object populated, you can do anything you want: you can save it to your database (by passing to a DAO), you can turn around and feed it to a page that displays a preview, or you can send it to an Edit form for revision. To answer your question a little further, yes, you would need another layer (or two) to handle the form data, populate the bean, then decide what to do with it. The DAO would just handle the INSERT or UPDATE when it was time to do so. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 1735 Johnson Road NE Atlanta, GA 30306 404.589.0560 ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

Help with CFXML and Flash 8
I have a flash menu that is being dynamically created using an XML file with the navigation schema. The XML file is currently hard coded, but I would like to make the url path attributes dynamic so that I don't have to maintain two different xml files (one for my local environment and one for the remote). Is it possible to use the CFXML tag to generate XML markup and have Flash 8 treat that file as XML? Here is what the template would look like that would generate my XML: cfprocessingdirective suppresswhitespace=Yes cfcontent type=text/xml; charset=utf-8 cfxml variable=theXML cfloop ... menu name=navigation item name=#subname# link=#sublink# / /menu /cfloop /cfxml cfoutput#ToString(theXML)#/cfoutput /cfprocessingdirective The only apparent problem is that the file would have a .cfm extension and not a .xml extension, which I'm not sure if Flash will accept.

JS and Radio Button Issue
I have a form that has two radio buttons. Their function is to show one of
two hidden divs.
The JS is this:
script language=JavaScript
function toggle('with', 'without')
{
if (document.getElementById) {
withvbm= document.getElementById('with');
withoutvbm= document.getElementById('without');
}
if (withvbm.style.display == none){
withvbm.style.display = ;
withoutvbm.style.display = none;
}
else if (withoutvbm.style.display == none){
withoutvbm.style.display = ;
withvbm.style.display = none;
}
}
/script
The radio buttons look like this:
input type=radio name=VBM value=1 id=with onclick=toggle('with',
'without')WithBRBR
input type=radio name=VBM value=2 id=without
onclick=toggle('without', 'with')With Out
And the divs look like this:
div id='with' style=display:none;
With vote by mail options here
/div
div id='without' style=display:none;
without vote by mail options here
/div
When I click either button, I get an error that and Object is expected. The
error is on the radio buttons. From what I can tell everything looks OK. Can
anyone see any issues with this? Also, I tried changing the first div's
style to display:block assuming that the page needed to see one of them and
of it did not work, but then I though no, that cannot be it since I want
both div's hidden until the user clicks one of the buttons.
Thanks,

you have multiple elements with ids with and without (the radio

the code below should work.

Re: FarCry and TinyMCE issue
Jon, I actually lodged a bug report on sourceforge. This is the reply I got: IE:s selection gets lost sometimes if you focus another iframe inside thesame document. The inline popup plugin has this issue but it's resolvedusing the following method: Use the var b = inst.selection.getBookmark();and inst.selection.moveToBookmark(b); functions before and after a insert.It will store away the current selection and then restore it. Consult theAPI docs for details.I'm currently trying to apply this - but all attempts have failed so far. ;)Adrian ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

HTH, Rich Kroll -Original Message- From: Doug Bezona [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 09, 2007 1:59 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Getting changed fields from database using an audit table Thanks Unfortunately, simply having the two tables joined doesn't help. The issue isn't getting the correct data, it's simply that to get the output I need, I have to loop over each column in each record to see which column has been updated in a given time period, and output the info about that column. USERS has a single lastupdated column, just so we know when it was updated. USER_UPDATED has most of the same columns as USERS, but each column just holds a date stamp of the last time the corresponding field was updated in USERS The data looks something like this: USERS: UserIDFirstnameLastname ------ 1 John Doe 2 Jane Smith USER_UPDATE: UserIDFirstnameLastname ---- --- 1 07/08/2005 10/31/2006 2 05/10/20067/15/2006 The output I am looking for is this, given an input date of 01/01/2006: UserID FieldNameValue --- --- --- 1 Lastname Doe 2 Firstname Jane 2 Lastname Smith The code produces the exact output I need, so the basic logic is fine (if not as fast as I need it to be). The queries run in a few milliseconds, so they aren't the bottleneck. It's the looping through each column in each record of the resultset to check the updated date of each field when it's 12000 records x 89 columns that's the bottleneck. ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
