Re: PDF Populate and readBinary Data
Thanks again. Let me explain with steps. 1. Have an interactive PDF. 2. Populate data to pdf but do not open to the brower. 3. convert populated PDF into binary and write to database. 4. At the end of the day, all these PDF's are downloaded depends on search criteria. (I am not worried about this. This step can be done easily). I tried using cfsavecontent and it is still populating the PDF in brower. AM I doing something wrong here? > > Is it not true that as soon as I populate fields, if opens PDF right > away.

Re: In CF 10, how to force session to end when browser is closed
OK, finally figured it out through trial and error. Did not find (complete) documentation that explained how to do this. Set this in the Application.cfc (beneath the tag) and this will cause the cfid & cftoken cookies "Expires" attribute to be set to "When I close my browser". Note: if you are using a shared server & "Disable updating Coldfusion internal cookie using Coldfusion tags/functions" is checked, you can override it by putting in the Application.cfc, which gives control back to you, otherwise cfid & cftoke will expire at whatever interval is set in CF Admin. In OnSessionStart, you can set the cookies like this: or like this: , just make sure you donât use the expires attribute when setting them. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351847 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

you also need to remember that most people who decide to learn CF do not know OOP, and CFML was never originally intended for that audience, it was supposed to be an easy to learn tag based language.

OK, thanks, I will have to read up on this. What a pain it is to upgrade.

Close CFDocument window?
Hello all, I have a form that submits to an action page containing a CFDocument tag in a new window. The action page sends the PDF output directly to a printer using CFPrint, soI end up with a new blank window. I have been trying *unsuccessfully* to close that new blank window programmatically so that I don't have to train users to do it. Any ideas? What I have tried is to set a javascript timer in the submitting page to close the child window after x number of seconds. I have also tried using cfthrow in the action page to catch a custom error that could then use javascript to close the window. btw, cfprint is a workaround to allow printing to a non-AirPrint device from Safari on an iPad.

Re: Multi-Server install *help*
You might be better off installing cf9 on the machine, then using windows virtual pc to create 2 seperate instances - one with cf7 and one with cf10.. they will have different ip addresses, but you can use a host file to name them something.. this way you can launch them only when needed and can play with them and test various options easier. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351842 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Just tried your suggestion, but cfid & cftoken gets set with an expires time based on the "Session Cookie Settings" in the CF10 Administrator (minimum setting is 2 minutes) & that setting cannot be disabled & it cannot be overridden. However, that setting can be overridden by other cookies, such as , which gets set with expires="When I close my browser". ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351840 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
