Zipcode finder
Does anyone of a zipcode finder application? Client wants it so that when user enters zipcode that the results contain listings within 50 miles of that zipcode. I'm looking for an app that will run on windows platfrom (I'd like it if it were written in CFML but I'll take asp if it works). The database we're running is SQLserver and I've heard there's some stored procedure apps that can do this also. If anyone can provide me with some good leads I'd really appreciate it. If there's a good existing application I can buy then I'm all for it cause personally I'm not looking forward to learning the internaly workings of US zipcodes.

Re: Open Source Content Mananagent System [Zope]
Zope is an object oriented app server.

Re: database modeling
thanks for the responses everyone. I'm still not sure what to do. I'm going to finish fleshing out the rest of the model before deciding. Adam, What do you mean by "subtype"? Isn't that more of an OO concept. How do you model a subtype in a relational db? This project is my first stab at developing a database from scratch.

DOS vulnerability in ColdFusion servers
The solution {remove CFDOCS directory} presented for this "vulnerability" is something I'd heard was an advisable thing to do for production servers in the past. So many of you may already know this but I thought it would be a good thing to post. I thought it might also be a good opportunity to review other CF security "rules of thumb". Then again this may be more appropriate in the CFServer list. - Vulnerability in ColdFusion servers - Oxygen3 24h-365d, by Panda Software Los Angeles, 13 December 2000 -- The example pages of the ColdFusion search engine could allow a hacker to launch a denial of service (DOS) attack. ColdFusion works as an extension to a web server in order to provide it with more advanced programming capacities. Its use as a web application server is widespread in professional environments to develop Internet or Intranet solutions. The vulnerability discovered in ColdFusion affects some scripts that are optionally loaded by the administrator during configuration. If the administrator decides to enter the search engine scripts, a malicious user could use the these pages in order to launch an attack which would cause the server to fail. The search engine ships as a component used to index directories to be searched. This process uses a great deal of CPU space and only happens when the search script detects that the directories in question are not indexed. Due to the vulnerability, a malicious user could execute these scripts remotely from a web browser. During the indexing process, CPU use reaches some 70%. The problem becomes more serious because of the possibility that the attacker has of multiple script executions, which can increase CPU use to 100%. This total consumption of system resources causes the ColdFusion server to fail and not respond to any more requests. In order to restore normal service it is necessary to restart the server, although to solve the problem completely it is recommendable to remove the directory "CFDOCS" created during normal installation.

Re: What are the recognized CF variable scopes?
The following definition is taken from the Fusebox list and the author is Douglas M. Smith, [EMAIL PROTECTED] I hope he doesn't mind me reposting this since he put it so well ;-) - OK, I know everyone is going to hate me, but I think I can give the most concise definition of a request variable yet. Think of it as a challenge in English and efficiency of communication! Here's my one line definition of request variables: Request variables and local variables (scope = VARIABLES) act and can be treated in EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, with the exception that request variables can go across the boundary, while local variables are "isolated" to the page and . Local variables: die with the page request Request variables: die with the page request Local variables: available in all code Request variables: available throughout the cascading chain of AND code. If you know how local variables work, then you know how request variables work! STOP THINKING SO HARD! (but please do yell at Allaire for the lack of documentation that caused your headache!)
