Re: Variable Amount of text in a Fixed Size Box
Is there any way that you can have the client enter the teaser text seperately from the main article body, i.e. 'teaser copy'. This could be used for page meta description, search results, etc. and will hand responsibility to the client for ensuring it fits. Hopefully, they'll be so frustrated that they'll hire a web designer... :p Dominic On 1 June 2010 05:06, Les Mizzell lesm...@bellsouth.net wrote: Client configured fonts are a PAIN in these situations.

Re: Comma delimited list
Hi Bill, looks like you just need to reference your getlistings query:
!--- Loop through all listings ---
cfloop query=getlistings
!--- Display listing details here ---
!--- Display feature codes ---
cfloop index=code list=#getlistings.FEATURE_CODES#
delimiters=#chr(44)#
cfif structKeyExists(featureCodes,code)

PDF multi-line input
I have a PDF with a text field that is Multi-Line. You can type into it and use carriage return to write paragraphs of text. So I type in it and use a carriage return. Submit the form to a CFQuery and insert the data into a varchar field. I use CFPDF and CFPDFformparam to take the field from the database and put it back into the PDF form. Everything looks fine. Submit the form again to a CFQuery and update the database. When I go to view the PDF again with the data I have two carriage returns instead of just one. If I keep updating the database I keep getting even more carriage returns. They almost seem to double with each update. How can I prevent this? Do I need to search for LF and replace with CR?

I have a bindable cfgrid in cf8 that updates just fine (I see the red triangle
in the cell). What I need to know is how to refresh the grid after the update
so the original cfc that fills the grid runs again to show new updated
information. I found these commands but not sure where to put them or how to
call them. Should they be in the page or the cfc?
ColdFusion.Grid.refresh('mygrid', true)

Query Results sent from search engines CGI variable?
I have a client who wants to make their site more user friendly when someone is sent to them from a search engine. What they want is when someone comes from a search engine link that we obtain the original search query (if sent) and in addition to showing the requested page present a list of other items from their site matching an internal search result using that criteria. I know that many search engines send the original search query over to the website I am assuming in the header because I can obtain that information from the web-server log reports.

What I don't know is if it is available in the CGI variables Cold Fusion can get from IIS6. The few times I've had to do this I parsed out the original query from the CGI.HTTP_Referer variable (URL string of the page that linked to yours). The format is slightly different depending on which engine the user came from, but it's not too hard to get the string out in a usable form. -Justin Scott ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334198 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Query Results sent from search engines CGI variable?
It'll be in the referrer, if present, which is sent by the browser. cgi.http_referer, split it up, check the domain to identify the search engine, and then check the query string to find the search query under the corresponding variable. cheers, barneyb On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 1:34 PM, UXB Internet denn...@uxbinternet.com wrote: I have a client who wants to make their site more user friendly when someone is sent to them from a search engine.

Re: HTML 5, has anyone done anything more than played with it
The great thing (or not so great, depending on your view) is that older browsers will simply ignore the markup they don't understand. That allows you to gracefully fallback for older legacy browsers. -Dan On Tuesday, June 1, 2010, Sean Corfield seancorfi...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 12:10 PM, Scott Stewart webmas...@sstwebworks.com wrote: I'm starting to dig into HTML 5, and so far, apart from some of the CSS3 attributes, I don't see anything that jumps out and says ready for prime time.

imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
I've got this issue that is driving me batty.
I have a random rotating watermarked image as the masthead on my site. I
have all of the images that can be used in a single directory. I query that
directory to get the list of images then pick a random one to use.
Once I have the image, the fun begins.
I load that image into an object with imageRead(), then I load a small PNG
watermark into another object with imageRead() (ive tried imageRead() and
imagenew().
Then, with a basic imagepaste(), I put the watermark on the image and use
imageGetBlob() and cfcontent to display it. Sounds simple enough right?
So now I have a .cfm template that watermarks a random image on the fly and
serves it up. So in my style sheet, I just did something like:
#masthead {background: url(/images/masthead.cfm) no-repeat;}
There is an image in this article that shows an example of the bug I'm
getting with this process (and maybe any detail I've left out):
http://acoderslife.com/index.cfm/blog/Mast-head-image-bug
It is also the site with the masthead in question as well so you may very
well see the issue first hand with enough refreshing.
Here is the entire code for the image processing template:
cfdirectory name=variables.mastImages action=list
directory=#expandPath('/images/mastimages/')# filter=*.jpg /
cfset variables.mastImg = randRange(1,variables.mastImages.recordcount) /
cfset variables.objImage = imageRead(expandPath('/images/mastimages/'
variables.mastImages['name'][variables.mastImg])) /
cfset variables.objWatermark =
imageNew(expandPath('/images/watermark.png')) /
cfset imageSetAntialiasing(variables.objImage,on) /
cfset imageSetDrawingTransparency(variables.objImage,40) /
cfset imagePaste(variables.objImage, variables.objWatermark,
(variables.objImage.getWidth() - (variables.objWatermark.getWidth() + 5)),
(variables.objImage.getHeight() - (variables.objWatermark.getHeight() + 5)))
/
cfcontent type=image/jpg reset=true
variable=#imageGetBlob(variables.objImage)# /
If I remove the imagePaste() line, the image loads fine every time, but
then, I don't get the dynamic watermark that I'm rather partial to.
A couple other things worth noting are
- I only see the issue if I do a normal refresh (control+r) but if I do a
hard refresh (contorl+shift+r), I never see the issue.
- I never see the issue if I got to the template directly. It only happens
when it is in the layout through the CSS template.
Here is the URL directly to the image template:
http://acoderslife.com/images/masthead.cfm
You will notice some serious pixilation in some of the images. I've tried
lowering the image quality in order to make the file size smaller in hopes
that it might help. It did not.
Has anyone else run into this or have any ideas for a solution? I like the
dynamic watermarking and would rather not put it in the images permanently
if I can avoid it.
Thanks for any input or assistance you can offer on this.

Re: imageRead plus imagepaste plus imageGetBlob issue
browser css/images caching? i did see the problem you described on the
link you posted...
what if you put the css declaration into the page (instead of external
stylesheet) and add a random url param to the bg image url?
style type=text/css
#masthead {background:
url(/images/masthead.cfm?x=cfoutput#createuuid()#/cfoutput) no-repeat;}
/style
i did a very similar thing on a a couple of site, but i had random url
params added to img urls and never saw the problem you see...
i also served the images using a script like this instead of cfcontent
tag:
cfscript
oImg = toBinary(toBase64(objImage)); // can probably use oImg =
imagegetblob(objImage); in your case
context = getPageContext();
context.setFlushOutput(false);
response = context.getResponse().getResponse();
out = response.getOutputStream();
response.setContentType(image/jpeg);
response.setContentLength(arrayLen(oImg));
out.write(oImg);
out.flush();
//response.reset(); //optional for problems
out.close();
/cfscript

Re: referencing #application.applicationname#
The appropriate use of locks can be really important. Here's a case in point that cost me a LOT: I did an application for a client where to save processing time, I put a couple of variables used many times into the application scope. In this case I wasnt allowed to deploy the application to the production server myself, their staff programmer was going to do it. I had to write the code, demonstrate, test it and prove it on a dev server, then give them the code to deploy on production. Nothing too unusual there. Except the person who did the deployment to production didnt listen to what I told him, didn't read my installation notes, and didnt know much about modern ColdFusion. His knowledge was based back in CF5. He looked at my code, scoffed at all my unlocked reads of application variables and corrected it by putting locks around every access of application vars. In this application that was about 50 places in 5 files. For good measure he put locks on every datasource access as well. When 400 users started using this application (it was something they all access many times a day) all these locks brought the entire system to its knees.Instead of doing what normal people would do and calling me to tell me to come and sort out the problem, they decided that my code had brought their system to its knees, they dumped my application and set their staff guy to re-writing what I'd done and told me i wasnt needed any more. If they'd have called me, I'd have been there in 30 minutes, looked at the changes their staff guy had made, fixed them, and it would have been up and rolling inside an hour. Sadly, I wasn't given the opportunity to have a say, or correct what they had already decided was my mistake. My point here is that locks, if used incorrectly, can wreck an application, or as in this case bring an entire server and database to a crawl. Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion 9 Enterprise, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month p.s. when I last heard, they were still putting locks around every application scope and database access, and had decided that ColdFusion ran too slow, so they were re-writing their whole system in dotnet instead. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334216 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: HTML 5, has anyone done anything more than played with it
It won't even be mainstream then. There's still an awful lot of people out there running XP XP isn't broke. I've seen no reason to fix it myself so far. Guess I'm one of those awful lot of people. If MS had given me an upgrade path from XP instead of a delete everything start from scratch install all your crap from the beginning path, I might have made the move to Win 7 already. But, I can't afford the down time to upgrade. Maybe dual boot at some point so I can keep running and slowly over everything over. Later. Sometime. remember that at least 15% of web traffic (a hair over by my stats actually) is still on IE6. My main client is an office building full of attorneys using IE6. They don't care if it works in anything else AT ALL, but it damn well better work in IE 6!! Drives me crazy. that assumes that Firefox/Chrome/Opera haven't gotten to half market share by that point, which they may at the rate they're growing.
