Regular Expression - decimal number positive negative
Heya, I know that some will know this quickly ... but I have ReplaceNoCase(str, [^0-9\.],,ALL) And this takes -5 to 5 ... which is not what I want - I want to include negative numbers what do I add to this regular expression to keep the decimals (if there) and keep the negative if there? So 5.24 is fine -5.24 is fine 5 is fine -5 if fine $5.24 (replace the $) $5,244.22 (replace the $ and the ,) Basically I need positive and negative integers to go into a float column.

Re: Regular Expression - decimal number positive negative
So you need something like [^0-9\.-] This just adds the dash to your existing match. You could get a lot better though, like this -?\d+(\.\d+)? -? matches an optional negative indiator, aka a dash \d+ is just numbers, same as 0-9, the only part of this regex that is required (\.\d+)? means match a decimal only when it has numbers after it, and this entire group is optional nathan strutz [www.dopefly.com] [hi.im/nathanstrutz] [about.me/nathanstrutz] On Fri, Dec 14, 2012 at 7:59 AM, Paul Giesenhagen p...@quilldesign.comwrote: Heya, I know that some will know this quickly ... but I have ReplaceNoCase(str, [^0-9\.],,ALL) And this takes -5 to 5 ... which is not what I want - I want to include negative numbers what do I add to this regular expression to keep the decimals (if there) and keep the negative if there?

Re: Regular Expression - decimal number positive negative
A contrived, slightly expanded example based upon Nathan's code...
cfscript
samples = {
a = 5.24,
b = -5.24,
c = 5,
d = -5,
e = $5.24,
f = $5,244.22
};
for ( key in samples )
{
writeOutput( reReplace( reReplace( samples[key], '(-?\d+(\.\d+)?)',
'\1', 'all' ), '[^0-9\.-]', '', 'all' ) br / );
}
/cfscript

Re: Weird problem with IFRAME
Is it possible the IFrame src is getting redirected to the root It would be if the file is not found, but the file exists and it works with all other browsers, including IE8. Only IE9 seems to have trouble. And if it was redirectected, there would be a trace of it in the HTTP logs For instance if I request doesNotExists.cfm, I clearly see the HTTP request for doesNotExists.cfm then another one, the CF redirection, for the root / But in this issue, the request is directly made to /, just like if there was no address in the SCR attribute. ~| 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:353461 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Changes do not show up on live website
Yep, definitely. When CF compiles your source code (before it runs it), that Save Class Files makes CF write the compiled classes out to that directory. The only benefit this gives is that if you're short on memory, sometimes CF will cycle a compiled class out of memory, which means the next time you use it it will need to be reloaded. If the class file is already there, it'll use that, otherwise CF will need to recompile the source code (which has a performance overhead). CF will, however, attempt to keep commonly used classes in memory, and only cycle-out not-oft-used ones, so this is not much of a problem. Obviously when you chance the source code, CF is supposed to recompile anyhow, but I have found that sometimes it *doesn't* when you've got an already compiled file for that code in that directory. This still happens on CF9, as I experienced it last week. You should try to set your maximum templates setting to be slightly higher than *all* your application's compiled classes (if you have the RAM to do so), and this will mean CF will never cycle anything out of RAM. The other consideration is that when CF restarts, obviously it starts with nothing in memory, so it will need to recompile everything again, which makes start-up a bit slower. On the down side of saving class files is that on Windows I actually find it degrades performance (Charlie Arehart disagrees with me here, and he's more of an expert on the topic, so take my advice with a pinch of salt), because Windows really struggles with more than a few hundred files in one directory, and most CF apps have far more than that. So this means when CF checks whether source code and compiled class file differ (which is every time the code is requested), Windows is very slow to find the file. *nix does not have this issue. On the whole, I have found it better to run *without* this setting on in a production environment. However it has not been my job to troubleshoot this sort of thing for a number of years now, so I would not take my advice as gold. -- Adam On 14 December 2012 16:13, funand learning funandlrnn...@gmail.com wrote: Another question.

So this means when CF checks whether source code and compiled class file differ (which is every time the code is requested), Windows is very slow to find the file. *nix does not have this issue. I think the truth lies somewhere in between both of these points. In some cases, it will degrade performance. In other cases, it will improve performance. It really depends on a couple of factors: disk performance and the number of CF files you have, in total. This is one of those things where you really have to load test your system to find out whether it will help or hurt. Also, Unix does in fact have this issue - the first case where I encountered it was a Solaris box. While there are performance differences between NTFS and common Unix or Linux filesystems like ext4, those aren't all big when it comes to this. Of course, if you try to browse the cfclasses directory with Windows Explorer, good luck with that! The real problem, in my opinion, is simply that all these files are placed within a single directory. If there was a nested directory structure to manage these files, average seek times would be much better. But when you have over fifty thousand files in a single directory - which is not uncommon in a production CF environment - performance is going to suck. Finally, the problem isn't really the comparison between the source code and the compiled class - that's a separate issue, and of course that can be disabled in production - but simply the seek time needed to find the compiled class on disk in the first place.

H. Nothing that I can think of from a CF perspective. Do you have a load-balanced environment, and only one of the servers has been updated or something?

Dave, do you know if there's a good reason they'll all stuck in the same dir, as opposed to hierarchically?

(ot) Windows Mesh Alternatives
Hi! Currently, my geographically dispersed company uses Windows Mesh as a network drive for shared office files. Microsoft has announced that Mesh is going away to be replaced by SkyDrive. Before we migrate to SkyDrive, I thought I'd poll the list to see if any of you might have another (better?) alternative.

I'm a big fan of Google Drive, primarily because I'm also a big fan of Google Apps generally. The nice thing about switching to Apps and using Drive is that you end up with a single security infrastructure for mail and documents, but you really only get that value if you're also switching your mail to Apps. There's nothing stopping you from using Google Drive separately with public Google accounts, or purchasing Apps licenses to use Google Drive with domain accounts. But I really came in here to suggest box.com. They really seem to have the best overall solution out there, as far as I can tell.

Re: Changes do not show up on live website
Thanks a lot for your replies. We found the issue and its a very silly one. We used to have a script that copies files from test server to prod server. I never had to bother what the folder name in prod was as script was written long back and we just run it. Recently the script was broken due to some permissions issues, so we had to copy the files manually. We thought test and prod has same folder structure Prod has a folder with same name as test environment, and an another folder with slightly different name which was actually used. So we copied files into the folder with same name as test environment rather than the other. Can't believe I wasted so much of my time and especially you guys. Sorry about that.

Re: (ot) Windows Mesh Alternatives
One more caveat: Windows Mesh allows for peer-to-peer *only* (i.e. no (apparent) storage of sensitive files on MSFT servers.) Anyone know whether any of the already-mentioned services allows for that and/or can think of another alternative that does?

Converting JS variable to CF variable
I don't know diddly squat about javascript. But I want to take a JS variable, such as those addressed in this alert: alert(Your coordinates are + position.coords.latitude + , + position.coords.longitude); and use it as a CF variable elsewhere on the page, like #position.coords.latitude# (of course this doesn't work). Can anyone shed some light for me?

Re: Converting JS variable to CF variable
JS is client-side. CF is server-side. By the time the page gets to the client where JS can/is run, CF is already completely out of the picture. You could... a) set a CF variable and render it as a JS variable b) get fancy with some ajax to send off a request to CF to set/get a variable and send back a response that you inject into the page somewhere HTH On Fri, Dec 14, 2012 at 3:50 PM, Les Irvin les.cft...@gmail.com wrote: I don't know diddly squat about javascript.
