Re: Looking for CF7 hosting (with some requirements)

2007-01-13 Thread Matthew Williams
Hostnexus.com is my favorite.  I've had a dedicated Linux box through 
them, but currently have shared/reseller hosting.  They're prompt to 
answer trouble tickets, and they now have a dedicated pipe in the data 
center in which they're hosted.  They offer several different kinds of 
plans, and offer both Linux and Windows shared hosts.  I've not run into 
issue using CFC's and CreateObject() there, (I host my FarCry sites in 
their shared environment), but your millage very.

Looking for CF7 hosting (with some requirements)

2007-01-13 Thread Andy Matthews
I'm looking for a good, cost-effective hosting company who offers CF7. I
have multiple domains to bring over and so I also need to find a company who
has either a reseller plan, or one who allows multiple domains under one
master account. I've checked into the following thus far:

Gearhost.com - allows multiple accounts, only offers CFMX

HostMySite.com - offers MX7, multiple domains each get charged

Can anyone recommend a good (preferably inexpensive) hosting company that
they trust?

Cf Portal apps

2007-01-13 Thread Bob Imperial
Hello folks,
 
In need of some information/education/direction on cf portal systems out
there. Seems I've been volunteered to put something together for my wife's
restaurant and her customers (from opt-in list), something simple with at
least some sort form of admin that I can control things from. Any
suggestions on some down and dirty free type packages would be great, as
well as some direction on resources to learn about portals in general...
aside from googling that is, I figured someone out there is in the know ;-)
and might save me some time searching for the "right stuff". TIA!!

Re: PostgreSQL Case Sensitive Data?

2007-01-13 Thread Matt Quackenbush
I was directed to the following link, which appears to have promise, but
haven't researched it enough yet to know.

http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/citext/projdisplay.php

As far as a case-insensitive collation, I've found absolutely nothing that
suggests you can do so on an imported database.  As was mentioned by Dave in
a previous response, you *might* be able to use LC_Collate when creating a
new database, but I haven't found a definitive answer on that yet.  Still
searching.

Re: PostgreSQL Case Sensitive Data?

2007-01-13 Thread Dave Merrill
Frankly, I agree with Matt that search behavior really should be case
insensitive. I've wanted to check out postgres for a while, but finding this
out may well slow me down.

If, like most other dbs, searching for calculated expressions
(LCASE(some_column) = 'foo' etc) is significantly inefficient, how are you
supposed to manage this in the real world? Only idea I had was to store every
possibly searchable value in mixed case for display, and somewhere else in all
lowercase for searching.

The other thing is that this makes it hard to use postgres as a drop-in
replacement for most other common dbs. Sure, you could (re-)design the app
from scratch to handle what most other dbs usually do automatically, but if
that's really what you have to do, it seems like a much bigger decision than
dealing with the much less pervasive syntax differences between vendors.

Are folks really sure that no case-insensitive collation option is available?

Re: PostgreSQL Case Sensitive Data?

2007-01-13 Thread Matt Quackenbush
Jochem, Dave,

My disbelief ('shock' is really too harsh a word for me to have used) comes
from the fact that I'm a brain-washed Windoze guy - one might even say that
I have a Microca$h property patch on me - who has never (to my recollection)
in 9+ years worked with a SQL Server collation that was anything other than
case INsensitive.  I'm trying to get out more these days, and venture into
the real world, the one in which you guys have long since been thriving.
:-)

Mind you, I am absolutely NOT a DBA.  My database experience is 100% in
using them for web-based applications.

Jochem, I am responding inline to your other comments...

In regards to QoQ being case sensitive, yes, I am well aware of that
behavior.  And it has always been something of an annoyance to me.  I have
always used lower(myfield) and #lCase(myval)# to "get around" that.  These
discussions here though are making me reconsider my position.  Again, my
disbelief is more because of inexperience in such an environment than it is
refusal to open my mind and think that there's any other way.

Call me spoiled, but in the user name example, I want my user name to appear
on-screen in mixed case, but I thoroughly enjoy being able to be lazy and
enter it in all lower case when logging in.  As far as passwords go,
absolutely, they should *always* be case sensitive.  But I've always
believed in having case rules be managed by the app, not the database
server.  I am trying hard to re-think that, and to understand the benefits
of it.  You guys are helping me with that.  Thank you!

I thoroughly agree that data should be returned in the same case in which it
was entered, in regards to display.  But for search strings, when you are
searching on something that you did NOT enter, or hell, maybe you entered it
6 or 8 months ago (e.g. a blog post), a case sensitive search does not seem
to be appropriate.  On the contrary, it seems like that would be a source of

Wow!  That's very cool.  I haven't gotten to that part of the manual yet.  I
have so very much yet to learn about the real world.  :-)

You can use some of the various currency formatting scripts out there  
to format the currency after the calculation has taken place.
Unfortunately, then you also have to un-format it when you go to  
recalculate the price again or you're going to get NaN.   I suggest  
just putting a "$" (or local currency symbol) in front of the input  
and make your life easier.   Here's a script, I found with a quick  
Google search (http://javascript.internet.com/forms/currency- 
format.html):

function formatCurrency(num) {
num = num.toString().replace(/\$|\,/g,'');
if(isNaN(num))
num = "0";
sign = (num == (num = Math.abs(num)));
num = Math.floor(num*100+0.501);
cents = num%100;
num = Math.floor(num/100).toString();
if(cents<10)
cents = "0" + cents;
for (var i = 0; i < Math.floor((num.length-(1+i))/3); i++)
num = num.substring(0,num.length-(4*i+3))+','+
num.substring(num.length-(4*i+3));
return (((sign)?'':'-') + '$' + num + '.' + cents);
}

HTH,

 I'd suggest changing your HTML a bit to make it easier.  I removed
 the calculate button because you don't need it, but you could  
 always
 put it back and set the onclick to setTotal().

 With the changed HTML the following will work:

 
 function setTotal() {
 var calcs = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
 var qty = 0;
 var price = 0;
 for(var i=0; i < calcs.length; i++) {
 if (calcs[i].getAttribute('name') == "price"){
 price = (price+calcs[i].value);
 };
 if (calcs[i].getAttribute('name') == "AQuantity"){
 qty = (qty+calcs[i].value);
 };
 };
 document.getElementById("total-price").innerHTML = (qty * price);
 }
 window.onload = function(){
 setTotal();
 }
 

 
  Your Offer:
  >>> name="AQuantity" value="1" style="width: 40px;" onblur="setTotal
 ()" td>
  >>> name="price" value="#numberFormat(itemPrice)#" style="width:50px;"
 onblur="setTotal()">

Do you have  numeric default set for your #itemPrice# variable?   If  
not, you'll either have to pull the window.onload function or set a  
numeric default.

Also, does DOM of your page validate?

Re: Client asked me: "Why you use coldfusion?"

2007-01-13 Thread Matt Robertson
Pablo and Mark (x2 for him in one thread) are dead on with regard to
billing, and not investing in someone else's business.  I went to an
hourly billing-only a year or so ago.  I will try and estimate costs
but I will not be pinned down on them.  This is tough for clients
trying to budget their expenses but the nature of development is such
that this is the only way to absolutely protect myself.  I bill weekly
and don't worry about deposits.  If a client gets behind on two
invoices then at my discretion work stops until their payments catch
up.

You have to have client trust established to get away with the above.
You WILL chase people off with it, but the ones you keep know your
value and appreciate your work.

Jmeter works really well. AS for the test plans etc, there's a program called

Re: CF Exam Certification Study Gruop

2007-01-13 Thread Brian Simmons
Wow Ben, you would like some feedback on your CF questions?

I think they are pretty good, however, I liked them even better when I 
originally authored them for CFMX Exam Buster (http://centrasoft.com).

You completely plagiarized my product, CFMX Exam Buster!  100% identical, no 
attempt to even try and alter the questions/answers.

Here is a page I spent my entire morning putting together as evidence and I 
invite the entire House Of Fusion community to view:
http://www.centrasoft.com/stuff/index.htm

This page shows Ben's purchase date of CFMX Exam Buster and screen snapshots of 
"his" questions and screenshots from CFMX Exam Buster (which has been on the 
market for almost 6 years).

I spend a lot of time and effort putting together a very high quality product 
and make it available to the ColdFusion community at an extremely reasonable 
price.  
CFMX Exam Buster has received many accolades and high praise from quite a few 
CF gurus and dozens of developers.

To have someone, such as yourself Ben, come along and completely steal my work 
is a complete slap in the face.  Passing off my work as your own in a public 
forum such as CF-Talk, and accepting praise from your fellow CF developers.  
Shameful by you and damaging to me.

Sincerely,
Brian Simmons
author of CFMX Exam Buster

PS. Thanks for wasting 2 hours of my life this morning having to gather 
evidence and respond to you.  I'd much rather be doing that than playing with 
my daughter.

Really? Have you ever looked close at CF? Try the following code:

qryTest = QueryNew("str");
queryAddRow(qryTest, 3);
querySetCell(qryTest, "str", 'a', 1);
querySetCell(qryTest, "str", 'B', 2);
querySetCell(qryTest, "str", 'c', 3);


SELECT *
FROM qryTest
ORDER BY str

I think it is insane to second-guess the user on his imput. There are few 
things that 
annoy me more then stupid systems that will fully automatically 'correct' my 
last name from 'van Dieten' to 'Van Dieten' or even 'VanDieten'.

You are asking the wrong question :)

Data is case sensitive. Always. In every database. If you put data in in some 
case, you don't get it back in some random other case, you get it back in the 
same case you put it in. And that is a good thing because case has meaning, a 
MB is very different from a mb.

Some operations on data can be case insensitive. So your solution is not case 
insensitive data, your solution is a case insensitve operator. Luckily it is 
very easy to define your own operators in PostgreSQL. For instance, this 
defines case-insensitive equality and inequality operators for text datatypes:

CREATE FUNCTION case_insensitive_equality(text, text) RETURNS boolean
AS 'SELECT LOWER($1) = LOWER($2)'
LANGUAGE SQL
IMMUTABLE
RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT;
CREATE FUNCTION case_insensitive_inequality(text, text) RETURNS boolean
AS 'SELECT LOWER($1) <> LOWER($2)'
LANGUAGE SQL
IMMUTABLE
RETURNS NULL ON NULL INPUT;
CREATE OPERATOR === (
leftarg = text,
rightarg = text,
procedure = case_insensitive_equality,
commutator = ===,
negator= <=>
);
CREATE OPERATOR <=> (
leftarg = text,
rightarg = text,
procedure = case_insensitive_inequality,
commutator = <=>,
negator= ===
);


I would recommend against overwriting the current = and <> operators with these 
operators because I have no idea what the side-effects may be and I don't think 
they are indexable.

YouTube like site needed

2007-01-13 Thread Robert Walters
Hello,

My company wants me to build a site just like YouTube for our users. Has 
anyone come across any software out there to do this?

I can do the front end in CF but I need some type of engine that takes 
any video and converts it to Flash FLV on the server.  Any ideas?

Thanks.Rob

Try cflib for a UDF. LiveDocs will have a list of the reserved words I
think.
