Re: cfimage - resize then force download?
Assuming you're talking about using CFIMAGE to write the image to memory, the name attribute gives you the image back as a binary variable, which you can then include in the CFCONTENT variable: cfcontent type=image/* variable=#cfimageVariableName# Ben Nadel did something similar with pulling a stream directly from the DB: http://www.bennadel.com/blog/1274-Ask-Ben-Streaming-Binary-Data-From-The-Database-BLOB-To-The-User-Using-ColdFusion.htm -jfish I am sure I am probably not the first person to want to do this but I can't find the answer anywhere.

Think you'll have to force the download of the resized image but can't you use cfcontent to delete it with deletefile=true ? You could also try extracting the image bytes and using cfcontent's variable attribute.

Re: Array confusion
Yes, it is a tournament ranking, with ratings available between a-e, and u (unrated). I am storing the number of each rating, so A 5, B 2, C 0, etc (with no commas) and then passing that info on to a CFC that takes the total number of people in the event, plus the number in each rating, and does some calculations on them. The problem I'm having is that if there are 2 different groups, how to get each one to have its own set of rating info and total number of people. So, group 1 is always going to be there, and will have the A-E U ratings, number of each, and total number of participants, but if there is another group (determined by url variable, how to loop over the entire array again, assigning those same array options A-E U ratings, number of each rating, and total number of participants, send that to the .CFC and have it calculated out with a different result to be displayed.. Hope that helps with what I'm trying to do. Array of array was the intent A two-dimensional array? That would just have two levels: ArrayName[x][y] What you've done is this: ArrayName[x][y][z] Which is a three-dimensional array - or, in this case, since you've told CF you want a two-dimensional array, CF assumes the third level is a structure, hence your odd results. (NOTE: You do not need most of those hashes - only hashes within cfloop to/list and cfinvokeargument value attributes serve any purpose here.) Maybe you could give a little more information on what problem you're trying to solve (some sort of tournament ranking?) and what your expected output might look like? ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:314113 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

CF Validation using CFC?
Hi, all... I'm slowly but surely integrating CFC's into my coding. But now I'm wondering how best to modify my usual CF validation of form values with a CFC in the mix. I typically design a page with a form, have it submit back to itself, run validation on the form variables, output appropriate error messages if needed, and if everything validates, I run the query, let's say an insert query, on the same page as the form, then using cflocation to direct to a success page. But, using the CFC requires that the form's action page be the cfc itself, with the method in the URL, e.g., properties.cfc?method=insert Will I end up having to use session variables to make this work so I can submit the form back to the page it's on, validate and if all validates, then change the form variables to session variables and using cflocation to then go to the cfc? Can that even be done?... cflocation url=properties.cfc?method=insert ??? Thanks for any feedback.

Re: CF Validation using CFC?
Sticking with your current method why don't you just continue to post back to the same page. Then in your check if it is a post back you instantiate your CFC and pass in the FORM structure to do data validation. That seems like it would be the quickest way to mesh things into your current methods. Now people could argue you should change the methods around completely.

Re: CF Validation using CFC?
That is entirely up to you, I thought from reading your post that you already had validation methods written into a CFC but were thinking you had to post the form to that CFC which was throwing a monkey wrench into your plans. There is no right or wrong way to tackle this. When I first started doing CFCs the method I used was to validate in a CFM file and if things passed I would then pass things into my CFC for the DB insert/update. That has morphed through many different methods for me over the years though. On Sun, Oct 19, 2008 at 9:36 PM, Rick Faircloth [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: So, use the CFC for the validation, as well?

I normally (without using a CFC at all), submit a form back to the page it's on, run CF validation, then process the query on that page, then redirect to a success page. Now, I've moved the insert query to a CFC, but was wondering how to handle the validation. I guess I could use a separate CFC for validation, and then the form variables would still be good for the insert CFC method. From your description of your method above, it sounds like it's not necessary to have the action attribute of the form tag set to go to the CFC with the method attached to the URL, as described in the CF docs. I guess it would be good to use this approach, perhaps: formpage.cfm submits back to itself which then references a CFC for validation (which returns error messages to the form page if there are errors?) and if all is valid, the form data is passed to the data-handling CFC for insertion. Sounds like I just need to move the validation form the form page (cfm) to a CFC. formpage.cfm validation.cfc datahandling.cfc Sound reasonable? Rick Aaron Rouse wrote: That is entirely up to you, I thought from reading your post that you already had validation methods written into a CFC but were thinking you had to post the form to that CFC which was throwing a monkey wrench into your plans. There is no right or wrong way to tackle this. When I first started doing CFCs the method I used was to validate in a CFM file and if things passed I would then pass things into my CFC for the DB insert/update. That has morphed through many different methods for me over the years though. On Sun, Oct 19, 2008 at 9:36 PM, Rick Faircloth [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: So, use the CFC for the validation, as well? Rick Aaron Rouse wrote: Sticking with your current method why don't you just continue to post back to the same page. Then in your check if it is a post back you instantiate your CFC and pass in the FORM structure to do data validation. That seems like it would be the quickest way to mesh things into your current methods. Now people could argue you should change the methods around completely.

But now I'm wondering how best to modify my usual CF validation of form values with a CFC in the mix. I typically design a page with a form, have it submit back to itself, run validation on the form variables, output appropriate error messages if needed, and if everything validates, I run the query, let's say an insert query, on the same page as the form, then using cflocation to direct to a success page. But, using the CFC requires that the form's action page be the cfc itself, with the method in the URL, e.g., properties.cfc?method=insert Will I end up having to use session variables to make this work so I can submit the form back to the page it's on, validate and if all validates, then change the form variables to session variables and using cflocation to then go to the cfc? Can that even be done?... cflocation url=properties.cfc?method=insert ??? Thanks for any feedback.

CFDocumentItem broken in CF 8.01
Can anyone else confirm this behaviour? Running the following example on CF8.01 (patched to latest levels): cfdocument format=pdf cfdocumentitem type=footerpThe Footer/p/cfdocumentitem pp1/p cfdocumentitem type=pagebreak / pp2/p /cfdocument Leads to a long running request, the stack trace for which shows the following under FusionReactor: State: TIMED_WAITING jrpp-2644 prio=5 in Object.wait() java.lang.Object.wait(Object.java:???)[Native Method] - waiting on 0x726c2b (a java.lang.Object) com.icesoft.util.PageDecorator.HeaderFooterDecoration.paint(HeaderFooterDecoration.java:118) ice.pilots.html4.ThePrinter.printPage(ThePrinter.java:187) coldfusion.document.DocumentSection.print(DocumentSection.java:144) coldfusion.document.DocumentExporter.export(DocumentExporter.java:149) coldfusion.document.DocumentExporter.export(DocumentExporter.java:38) coldfusion.document.DocumentFrame.exportContent(DocumentFrame.java:162) coldfusion.document.DocumentProcessor.processContent(DocumentProcessor.java:276) coldfusion.document.DocumentProcessor.processContent(DocumentProcessor.java:163) coldfusion.tagext.lang.DocumentTag.processContent(DocumentTag.java:1479) coldfusion.tagext.lang.DocumentTag.access$000(DocumentTag.java:99) coldfusion.tagext.lang.DocumentTag$3.run(DocumentTag.java:1390) java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(AccessController.java:???)[Native Method] coldfusion.tagext.lang.DocumentTag._processContent(DocumentTag.java:1386) coldfusion.tagext.lang.DocumentTag.doAfterBody(DocumentTag.java:1340) Take out the footer: cfdocument format=pdf pp1/p cfdocumentitem type=pagebreak / pp2/p /cfdocument and the request finishes immediately.
