MySQL 4 driver and characterEncoding=ISO-8859
Our site allows international / non-ASCII characters (accents, curly quotes, etc) in database data. We are using MySQL 4.1. In CF 6.1, it all works great with the following: cfset setEncoding(form,ISO-8859-1) cfset setEncoding(url,ISO-8859-1) cfcontent type = text/html; charset ISO-8859-1 AND, using the MySQL 3 driver, useUnicode=truecharacterEncoding=ISO-8859-1 in the connection string. It works. Now that we've upgraded to CF 8 / the MySQL 4 driver, a lot of our non-ASCII characters are getting displayed as boxes or other weird characters. I suspect there is a very simply fix that I'm overlooking here. It appears the useUnicode=truecharacterEncoding=ISO-8859-1 string used for the MySQL 3 driver is being ignored by the MySQL 4 driver. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to get this international data to display properly in CF 8 using the MySQL 4 driver?

Drag Image
Hi All, I have a project I am working on and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. A user will upload a photo, re-size on the fly (I can handle this part). Here's the kicker, the user will then need to be able to drag the uploaded picture over another picture. So they will need to be able to click and drag the uploaded image and place it in a position over a pre-defined image. I will need to send the exact location (where the user dragged it) of the uploaded picture to the database. This is a complete Cold Fusion environment, so any solutions would need to integrate with Cold Fusion. I hope I have explained myself well enough, if not let me know and I'll go into more detail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks, Rick The best example and what I think about when setting a cflock is a web hit counter. If two people visit a page at exactly the same millisecond, a cflock would be needed to me sure the data is correct. There are a couple of additional times when I think back to the web hit counter logic and see if it's a problem with an update or insert script but normally, I try not to rely on the ID of the last inserted record for anything so 9.9 times out of 10 cflock is not needed.

Not really. You still need to lock around any potential race conditions.

In short you no longer need to do this to ensure server reliability (the structures which hold this information are now thread-safe) - no more crashes because of locking. (5 year-old Yay!) (Just kidding - we went straight from 4.5 to 7 so I know exactly where you're coming from.) However you still may need to lock to protect your data for application/design reasons (race-conditions for example).

follows:
$('columnID').value = columnIDsArray;
then it was working sometimes and not others, yet if i set it as follows:
document.manageLookupForm.columnID.value = columnIDArray;
then it works all the time
does anyone have any idea why this would happen.
i have the first way set up on all my interfaces and works fine but on this

Re: form problem
Richard,
I appears that you're using JQuery so some of your questions might be
more appropriate on the forums over there, but a couple of things:
You need to pass the pound symbol in with your field so that JQuery
knows to specifically to look for an HTML element with that id
attribute:
$('#columnID').value=columnIDsArray;
If it's an existing javascript object variable, than there's no need
to quote it:
var columnID = document.getElmentById(columnId);
$(columnId).value=columnIDsArray;
I'm not exactly sure what the execution plan and fallback for JQuery
is when the pound sign is missing. Rey Bango would probably know, but
it's a good bet that this may be the problem. By using
document.manageLookupForm.columnID.value you are bypassing the
JQuery lookup of the object and accessing the DOM tree directly.
In any case, I'm not sure that populating your forms with javascript
on each step is the most effective or efficient way. Javascript and
a JQuery are wonderful for manipulating stuff after the document has
loaded, but server side code can make quick and accurate work of it
like in this (very basic) example of using the passed form structure
to quickly populate required fields:
cfset reqFields = name,author,title,text
cfloop list=#reqFields# index=i
input type=hidden name=#i# id=#i#cfif structKeyExists(form,i)
value=#form[i]#cfelse value=/cfif/
/cfloop
You can make short work of handling the passed variables and don't
have to rely on the browser to make sure the values are set correctly.
Just my 2 cents.

Re: form problem
Oh and just to clarify (before someone else hits me on it), you don't
need the JQuery lookup in my example of using an existing JS object.
You can, however use the object directly to perform JQuery functions
on the object:
var columnID = document.getElmentById(columnId);
columnID.value=columnIDsArray;

I can initially connect and load a page o.k., but if I let my browser sit for even 30 seconds without any activity, I'll get any number of SequeLink JDBC Driver errors. Connection closed due to session kill and MySQL server has gone away are two I can remember off the top. I've found that if I uncheck Maintain Connections in cfadministrator, Everything seems to work fine, however, any and all requests, from simple ajax requests to larger cf pages, all take about 20 seconds.

In short you no longer need to do this to ensure server reliability (the structures which hold this information are now thread-safe) - no more crashes because of locking. (5 year-old Yay!) (Just kidding - we went straight from 4.5 to 7 so I know exactly where you're coming from.) However you still may need to lock to protect your data for application/design reasons (race-conditions for example). It's rare that you'll need to lock whole scopes however and for the most part named locks should provide all the utility you need without dragging performance.

Re: Drag Image
i would start by looking at jQuery (www.jquery.com) or another js library/framework that supports dragging/dropping. i personally love jQuery for its simplicity and power. ben nadel @ kinkysolutions.com has several posts on his blog re jQuery and specifically about creating a dragdrop interface (look for jQuery puzzle). i am sure if you google it, you will find more examples solutions --- Azadi Saryev Sabai-dee.com http://www.sabai-dee.com Greg Edmonds wrote: Hi All, I have a project I am working on and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. A user will upload a photo, re-size on the fly (I can handle this part). Here's the kicker, the user will then need to be able to drag the uploaded picture over another picture. So they will need to be able to click and drag the uploaded image and place it in a position over a pre-defined image. I will need to send the exact location (where the user dragged it) of the uploaded picture to the database. This is a complete Cold Fusion environment, so any solutions would need to integrate with Cold Fusion. I hope I have explained myself well enough, if not let me know and I'll go into more detail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

PDF creation in CF8 - not working...please help
I'm trying to create a PDF from a page and it's not working. The way I've read is that to do this, you simply wrap whatever content you have within cfdocument tags, with the type set to PDF. So that's what I've done, and it's not working correctly. Here's the actual page: http://gaylordoprylandsales.com/prop/proposal.cfm?view=73534E3B54060A4C061052691D13 Here's the page when a PDF is trying to be generated: http://gaylordoprylandsales.com/prop/proposal_pdf.cfm?view=73534E3B54060A4C061052691D13 You can see that the top portion of the proposal outputs just fine, but EVERYTHING ELSE is missing. It appears that the correct number of pages are there, so I can assume it's simply something with my HTML that's the problem, but I have no idea what it might be. It's not like you can debug this sort of thing. Does anyone have any idea why it might be doing this, and if so, what I can do to fix it? andy matthews ~| Download the latest ColdFusion 8 utilities including Report Builder, plug-ins for Eclipse and Dreamweaver updates. http;//www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs%5adobecf8%5Fbeta Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:294438 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

RE: No Longer Need to Lock Session Variables?
Thanks, Nic... just coming from CF 4.5, I haven't even written an Application.cfc, yet! And haven't used onApplicationStart() or on SessionStart()! I'm trying to catch up, however! :o) Rick -Original Message- From: Nicholas M Tunney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2007 8:54 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: No Longer Need to Lock Session Variables? I didn't see earlier posts to this thread, but it is worth noting that if you are using Application.cfc and calling onApplicationStart() or onSessionStart() explicitly, you will still need to lock the appropriate scope(s).
