ThreeSelectsRelated Default Values
I have googled this all morning and have found no answer but many articles with the same problem and as my JS is limited I thought I would ask the question before diving into the unknown! I am using the ThreeSelectsRelated tag that I downloaded from somewhere, can't remember right now so I apologise to the author, and it works fine when selecting options and posting the form. My problem is that when I try to reload the posted data for editing I cannot set the default values to be selected correctly in the ThreeSelectsRelated tag. The first select box is selected correctly but the following 2 are not. Now the strange thing is that when I view the source code for the page I can clearly see that all 3 items are flagged as being selected correctly which is why I am thinking that it is JS related.

Compare 2 structures or arrays
On my site I have an area where up to 40 individual records consisting of several fields each are displayed and are able to be edited by the user. My customer insists that there be only one submit button on this page, not individual submits for each record.

When the user has updated the records and submits the page I will build another structure/array in the same way. What I then need to do is to compare both structures/arrays to identify which records have actually changed and return those records only to be updated. Has anybody done anything similar to this?

Re: Only update DB if data has changed?
The problem is related to running too many queries which do an awful lot of work in themselves and also the fact that the client refuses to have the option of being able to edit each record individually. Is the problem you are trying to solve related to performance of running too many queries, or from updating some sort of LastUpdated column unnecessarily.

Re: Sql Server Temp Table
I thought that you had to explicitly drop any temporary tables created with the hash syntax as soon as you had finished using it. Personally when ever I used to have to use this type of temporary table I always made sure that it was dropped as soon as I finished using it. If you are using SQL2000 or above you could always use the @table variable which is a much better performer and you do not have to worry about dropping it after you have finished using it. The only thing I can think of is that you've got this table being created somewhere else in your code, or maybe the create statement is in a loop. Running it from QA doesn't tell you anything because it's a different user/session, and temp tables are specific to the session. -Original Message- From: Brian Peddle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 10:52 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Sql Server Temp Table Today I just started to get an error: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]There is already an object named '#temp_reports' in the database.

Calculate schedule timeslots
I am sure that I saw something a while back that may address the issue I have. I have a scheduler that has time slots in increments of 15 minutes. What I need to do is to be able to exclude time slots that have already been allocated. For example I have start and end time dropdown lists so a user can select a time slot as follows; Start time : 11:45 AM Finish Time : 12:45PM Once this time slot has been allocated I need to be able to exclude this range from both of dropdown list i.e. Start time will now look as follows 11:30AM 01:00PM End time will be same. I already have the logic to ensure that the start and end time are not the same and also that the end time is after the start time but I am struggling to figure out how edit my dropdowns on the fly as time slots are allocated. Anybody help? Maybe a more simple method would be to only initially populate the start time dropdown and use the onchange method to populate the end time box? Would this be easier do you think? ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:229328 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Custome Message Box?
Not sure if I have posted this to the correct forum, so I apologise if I have not. The problem that I have is that I need to be able to display a customised pop-up message box on one of my CF pages. I have looked at Javscript (not enough options), VBScript (cannot change the default button text) and I am now thinking whether CSS is what I need. I need to be able to provide the user with a pop-up that gives the following options 'Edit', 'Delete' 'cancel'. The user cannot navigate from the page until an option is chosen so we are talking modal also.

Re: Custome Message Box?
Thanks for your help so far guy's. My instructions for this have now changed. I think that the following can be achieved by using a DIV and some Javascript maybe? You have a table cell, when the user hovers over the table cell a small sub-menu appears immediately below it that lists the following options 'Edit', Delete' some additional text as a description of the item being hovered over. When the user moves the mouse off the cell the menu disappears. Is this something that is better suited to DIV's and javascript and if so do I need to be asking in the CSS forum? ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:229188 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Rendering CFML extracted from a DB
Hi all, this is curious one for me. I am playing with app that needs to stores
CFML strings in an SQL database like so,
#translate('PageTwo','Nav','Report')#
There is a query that returns these strings from the database and output's them
to the page. Now this is where it goes wrong. The actual text output is
#translate('PageTwo','Nav','Report')# - This is what appears on screen.
This does not surprise me, what I need to know is whether it is possible to get
this to work. What I would have to do to retrieve the data from the database,
output the query AND makle sure that the 'translate' function gets called in
order to display the correct text on screen?
This is not a big deal if it is not possible, just curious if there some sort
of render function for this type of thing similar to what is apparently
available in BD.

Re: Blue Dragon and Fusebox
Did you ever get a solution to this? I too am having the same problem with a
fusebox 4.1 app running on Bluedragon 6.2 .NET that is choking when trying to
execute the following code
cfset request.session = duplicate(session)
It just seems to be a problem with the 'duplicate' function?
Okay, we have made some progress on this BlueDragon issue.
When we try to call just the index.cfm without a fuseaction, the error
changes. The new error we are running into is listed below, and the
code causing the error is listed below that.
I could be wrong, but it appears BlueDragon does not treat the CF
application scope as a structure, at least not when it is in a CFLOCK.
Is anyone else copying the application scope to a request variable in
BlueDragon?
Anyways:

Thanks for the response.
I think the problem is more complicated than that, createObject() is
not
used anywhere in the code.

I have used VSS virtually from day one and have never yet had any problems with it, not a single corruption.

I have also had some very bad experiences with VSS. Two specific problems that I've had: A developer checked out some code and didn't check it back in before going on holiday. This caused us a lot of headaches because we didn't have the password for his machine and he'd checked out stuff that a lot of other people needed to work with. VSS completely corrupted the source code for a project I was working on a few years ago. Again, this caused us a lot of headaches because we had lost the complete change history for the project. The VSS workflow doesn't work well for me either because it requires that you organize yourselves in such a way that two people never have the same code checked out. My experience has been that allowing multiple developers to check out and work on the same code is much more productive.

RE: CFC - separate or all in one?
This thread caught my eye and I would like to add a question of my own if I may. I am relatively new to CFC's and am still getting my head around them. I have written CFC's that only contain database calls in individual functions that are all relative to specific areas of my site, so I have a CFC called matchreport.cfc that handles all select, insert, update delete database calls, this is all that the CFC does, is there anything fundamentally wrong with doing this or is there a better way to handle this? -Original Message- From: Matthew Walker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 21 October 2005 01:46 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CFC - separate or all in one? They can be good for both, can't they? ;^) Fair enough -- I guess I meant that always using them as a library of functions is the trap many new users (e.g. me) fall into when first using CFCs. You can create utility CFCs that don't maintain state and are effectively just a collection of related methods. CFCs for manipulating images are often like this. In JavaScript, the Math class is a good example. I would suggest that as a general guideline, very few of your CFCs should be written like this. I'd also recommend you keep them in a separate folder, so you know you don't have to initialise them. ~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:221789 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Re: Loop through a structure of structures
Thanks, I just realised that before I posted again, God alone knows what I thought I was trying to do with it earlier! The 17 recordsets are all returned via one stored procedure call within the CFC so there really is only DB call, couldn't do it any other way as the data that is returned is keyed on a position on screen so I have to get all top row, middle row, etc data. Reference each query through the structure perhaps? Does this work? cfoutput query=structurename.RS1 /cfoutput cfoutput query=structurename.RS2 /cfoutput But this begs the question, why are there 17 recordsets? Might a single query do the job?

RE: i18n problem - utf-8 chars not displaying correctly
In SQL2000 you can actually change the collation of individual columns within individual tables. I am not sure exactly which collation you would need but if you can open SQL enterprise manager, find the table that you are storing this data into, right-click on the table and select 'Design table'. Once the table is open in design mode, select the column that you wish to change the collation for and at the bottom of the design view the 'collation' box should become active. Click inside the collation box and a button should appear next it. Click this button to access a list of available collations. You will have to look in BOL to check which collation type is suitable for which character sets but that is how easy in SQL2000 it is to change collation. Hope this helps!

RE: i18n problem - utf-8 chars not displaying correctly
I currently run a site that uses English, French, German, Italian Spanish. The collation setting that I use, for the applicable columns, is 'Modern_Spanish_CI_AI', everything else uses the database default. This has so far covered all of my problems that I encountered whilst performing searches, i.e. making sure that a search for '%sire' returns both 'Desire' and 'Desiré', treating the 'e' and 'é' the same. I do not think that you will have to use different encoding for every language, as I said the above encoding works for my 5 languages, but you may have to use different ones for Chinese characters, I am not sure as I have never explored storing that language in the database. I found this link gave me a clearer understanding, http://www.itworld.com/AppDev/136/ITW3856/ Type 'SQL 2000 Collation' in Google. There is tons of info about SQL 2000 collation settings, including the pitfalls which you must be aware of to try and avoid issues later on!.

I am not sure exactly which collation you would need but if you can open SQL enterprise manager, find the table that you are storing this data into, right-click on the table and select 'Design table'. Once the table is open in design mode, select the column that you wish to change the collation for and at the bottom of the design view the 'collation' box should become active. Click inside the collation box and a button should appear next it. Click this button to access a list of available collations. You will have to look in BOL to check which collation type is suitable for which character sets but that is how easy in SQL2000 it is to change collation. Hope this helps!

RE: Weird Encrypt/Decrypt problem!
Thanks all for your help so far. Now I have been looking at the documentation for encrypt/decrypt and I would like to use one of the more secure encryption algorithms, such as BLOWFISH or DES. I notice that the more secure algorithms use the function GenerateSecretKey. Now do this mean that when the text is encrypted it is a one way process? I assume that the GenerateSecretKey function will always return a different key so does this mean that I cannot then decrypt my data when I retrieve it from the database? I am getting somewhat confused here. :-( ~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:219323 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Weird Encrypt/Decrypt problem!
Hi all, I am trying to store specific data into a database in an encrypted format. This data also has to be decrypted so as to be displayed and edited onscreen therefore ruling out using the hash function. The problem that I am having is on the decrypt. Example: cfset foo = encrypt(johnmurray, wibble) foo then equals *5)V%5*.Z59RR$ I save this text to the database. An unusual thing happens when I try to decrypt this text as follows; cfset foo = decrypt(*5)V%5*.Z59RR$, wibble) foo then equals johnmurrax as you can see the 'y' has become an 'x'. Now here is the strange thing, cfset foo = encrypt(johnmurray , wibble) - with an extra space at the end of johnmurray everything encrypts/decrypts correctly using an 11 character string. also cfset foo = encrypt(johnmurra, wibble) - if I make it only 9 characters then this also encrypts/decrypts correctly. It seems to only happen with 10 letter strings? This is on Coldfusion 7, using a SQL database. I have tried URLEncodedFormat before saving to the database and then using URLDecode after retrieveing. As this text is defined by the user then I cannot simply say that there can be no 10 character strings so has anyone ever come across this? Does anyone have any better encryption ideas I could use? This is a really annoying little quirk as to why it only seems to affect 10 character strings, weird huh? ~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:219225 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Checked that, both the variable in my stored procedure and the column in my DB table are set to nvarchar(100).

Re: Encrypt/Decrypt Suggestions (WAS Weird Encrypt/Decrypt problem!)
OK, follow up to this, can anybody suggest ways that they currently encrypt/decrypt sensitive data? I need to encrypt the data to save into the database and then at a later date retrieve that data, decrypt it and let the user edit it. I have looked at using the various algorithms excluding CFMX_COMPAT but I notice that uses the GenerateSecretKey function. I am assuming that the key that is generated is different every time therefore once I have encrypted the data, if I do not save the original key then when I come to decrypt the data it will use a different key and so fail?

Site-wide error handler?
Hi I am trying to implement a site-wide error handler for a dedicated server running only 2 related aplications on a Coldfusion 7/Win2k3 setup. I have been trying to use the code I found at 'http://mysecretbase.com/building_a_coldfusion_error_handler.cfm'. All works fine up to a point. This error handler basically executes a generic error.cfm page which in turn includes a datadump page, that has options for handling the error data, and then includes my pretty looking error page informaing the user that an error has occurred. The problem is my pretty error page does not get display, the egenric ugly coldfusion page always appears and I do not know why. My error.cfm page has the following code; cfswitch expression=#cgi.Server_Name# cfcase value=mydomain.com,anotherdomain.com cfparam name=request.dumpMode default=STANDARD type=string cfscript request.emailTo=[EMAIL PROTECTED]; request.emailFrom=[EMAIL PROTECTED]; request.emailServer=mail.mydomain.com; /cfscript cfinclude template=dumpmonger.cfm cfinclude template=error_dsp01.cfm /cfcase cfcase value=yetanotherdomain.com cfparam name=request.dumpMode default=ONSCREEN type=string /cfcase cfdefaultcase cfparam name=request.dumpMode default=SECURE type=string cfscript request.emailTo=[EMAIL PROTECTED]; request.emailFrom=[EMAIL PROTECTED]; request.emailServer=mail.foohbar.gov; /cfscript cfinclude template=dumpmonger.cfm cfinclude template=error_dsp02.cfm /cfdefaultcase /cfswitch My datadump page has the following code; cfparam name=request.dumpMode default= type=string cfparam name=request.emailTo default= type=string cfparam name=request.emailFrom default= type=string cfparam name=request.emailServer default= type=string cflock scope=SERVER type=READONLY timeout=10 cfset variables.CFVer=Left(server.coldfusion.ProductVersion,1) /cflock cfscript request.vars=CFCATCH,ERROR,APPLICATION,ATTRIBUTES,CALLER,CGI, CLIENT,FORM,REQUEST,SESSION,THIS,THISTAG,URL,VARIABLES; request.theFileName=Replace(CreateUUID(),-,,all); request.errorDirectory=c:/cfusionmx/wwwroot/myerrors/; request.errorDomain=https://www.mydomain.com/errors/;; /cfscript cfsavecontent variable=variables.dataDump cfloop list=#request.vars# index=loopItem cfif IsDefined(#loopItem#) cfif Compare(variables.CFVer,6) OR Compare(variables.CFVer,7) brbrcfoutputb#loopItem#/b/cfoutput /cfif cfdump var=#Evaluate(loopItem)# label=#loopItem# /cfif /cfloop /cfsavecontent cffile action=write file=#request.errorDirectory##request.theFileName#.html output=#variables.dataDump# cfswitch expression=#request.dumpMode# cfcase value=STANDARD cfmail to=#request.emailTo# from=#request.emailFrom# subject=#cgi.server_name# Error server=#request.emailServer# type=HTML mimeattach=#request.errorDirectory##request.theFileName#.html p a href=#request.errorDomain#list.cfm See complete error list /a /p /cfmail /cfcase cfcase value=SECURE cfmail to=#request.emailTo# from=#request.emailFrom# subject=#cgi.server_name# Error server=#request.emailServer# type=HTML p a href=#request.errorDomain##request.theFileName#.html See It /a /p p a href=#request.errorDomain#list.cfm See complete error list /a /p /cfmail /cfcase cfcase value=ONSCREEN cfoutput #variables.dataDump# /cfoutput /cfcase /cfswitch After this my error_dsp01.cfm page should be displayed but never is.

Do Not Include CFID CFTOKEN in URL?
Hi all, I have searched the archives and although I see many questions answers with regards to my question I have not found a definitive one.

RE: When to use Application var?
Personally, if your information is unlikely to change on any regular basis then I would use the application scope.

Regards, Andrew Scott Quote of the Day: If the colleges were better, if they really had it, you would need to get the police at the gates to keep order in the inrushing multitude. See in college how we thwart the natural love of learning by leaving the natural method of teaching what each wishes to learn, and insisting that you shall learn what you have no taste or capacity for. The college, which should be a place of delightful labour, is made odious and unhealthy, and the young men are tempted to frivolous amusements to rally their jaded spirits. I would have the studies elective. Scholarship is to be created not by compulsion, but by awakening a pure interest in knowledge. The wise instructor accomplishes this by opening to his pupils precisely the attractions the study has for himself. The marking is a system for schools, not for the college; for boys, not for men; and it is an ungracious work to put on a professor. - Ralph Waldo Emerson -Original Message- From: Andy Mcshane [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 14 September 2005 6:51 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Do Not Include CFID CFTOKEN in URL?

RE: Do Not Include CFID CFTOKEN in URL?
Thanks for all your replies guy's. Now I think I have found the cause of why my CFID CFTOKEN are always in the URL but it also raises another issue. Oh, and I should have said that I am using Fusebox4.1, sorry! In my fusebox.init.cfm file I have the following code; cfset request.self = index.cfm cfset request.myself = #URLSessionFormat( '#request.self'#) It is the ' URLSessionFormat' that is including the CFID CFTOKEN in the URL string. The next problem is that this is only supposed to happen if cookies are disabled on the client machine. In my case cookies are enabled, I have changed the code to cfset request.myself = #request.self#) and everything works fine but it would appear that the check for cookies being active is failing. Can anyone confirm if the following code is causing the cookie check fail? cfif isdefined(cookie.CFID) AND isdefined(cookie.CFTOKEN) cfset localcfid = cookie.CFID cfset localtoken = cookie.CFTOKEN cfcookie name=CFID value=#localcfid# cfcookie name=CFTOKEN value=#localtoken# /cfif -Original Message- From: S.

Oh, by the way, cookies will always be on, they cannot access the site without them being switched on.' I have some vague recollection of this happening with one of my projects... iirc in my case it was sometimes automatically appended to the cgi.query_string variable (which was then being used to simply forward all the url variables from the current page to another page in a cflocation tag). So even when I specified addtoken=false in the cflocation tag, I still got that behavior. Try a whole-project search in CF Studio / Dreamweaver / etc. for this regular expression (cfid|cftoken|urltoken|addtoken|cgi\.query_string) Any of those could theoretically contain / cause references to cfid/cftoken. UrlToken specifically is the combination of cfid cftoken variables in url-encoded form, i.e. cfid=xxxcftoken=. At the time I think I used a replace() to remove it from the url, i.e. cflocation url=newpage.cfm?#rereplacenocase(cgi.query_string,urltoken,'')# addtoken=false hth s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://www.fusiontap.com http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/author/4806Dealey.htm ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

RE: CFC's - Most efficient scope?
OK, thanks for all this info so far guy's. Now then, am I correct in saying that I should be scoping all of my argument var's to local var's within each of my functions within my cfc's? Now, is it acceptable, in instances where I pass in an argument collection, to copy the argument collection to a new local collection i.e. duplicate the argument structure to a new local structure? Can someone give me a brief idiot's guide on how CFC's and individual functions behave for each user? i.e. when initializing in the application scope the CFC is available application wide to each user, does this mean that only 1 instance of the CFC ever exists or is there 1 for each user session? Is each call to the CFC session independent or is this where I need to be understanding the whole locking/race condition issue, each call is awaiting for another call to finish first. Bear in mind that so far all my CFC's do is handle database interaction. Am I even making any sense at all, I do not know, I am so confused ;-( ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

CFC's - Most efficient scope?
Hi, been playing around with CFC's and fusebox4.1 for a bit, nothing too advanced. In the main part I use CFC's to do all of my database work, they contain all of my calls to the database using stored procedures. My question is what is the best amd most efficient way to execute them? At the moment I initialize all of my CFC's into the application scope and then in my fusebox model xml file use the following syntax; invoke object=application.MyObject methodcall=MyMethod( Arg1, Arg2, etc) returnvariable=MyReturnVar OR invoke object=application.MyObject methodcall=MyMethod( argumentcollection=MyArgs ) returnvariable=MyReturnVar Is this an efficient way of doing this? Is there a better way to do it?

CFContent question ...
After I have created a document using cfdocument I am using the following code
to open the pdf,
cfheader name=content-disposition value=attachment; filename=wibble.pdf
cfcontent type=aplication/pdf file=#expandpath('MyFilePath')#
deletefile=yes reset=no
This shows a dialogue box to the user giving the option of either saving the
document, opening it or cancvel. What I want to be able to do is remove the
option to open it (I think I set the type to application/unknow to do this)
but I also need to be able to capture whether the user actually clicked save or
cancel, is this possible?

CF_TwoSelectsRelated
I searched the archives, I have searched Google and I have checked out the original authors site, http://projects.nateweiss.com/nwdc/workcode.htm, but I cannot find anybody who has actually ever got the default1 default2 values working in the CF_TwoSelectsRelated tag. Basically I love this tag but I need it to allow both of the select options to be defaulted to values on page load with data from the database and I can only ever get the first select box to default to a selection.

RE: Replace or REReplace function question.
Thanks all. I have decided to go with the following syntax for my fieldnames fieldname1, fieldname2, etc just to avoid any problems with the hashes. As there will be limited few fields to deal with I think the less elegant but simpler 'replace' function should do the job, unless you know of any example code for doing it better? -Original Message- From: Barney Boisvert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 August 2005 18:15 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Replace or REReplace function question. First, I'd recommend not using CF markup for the fields. Or at least don't require the CFOUTPUT tags, just the hashes. If you have a small number of fields, loop over them and just do a replace(string, ##detail.firstname##, detail.firstname, all) for each one. Not real elegant, but it is simple. A more robust solution would be to parse the text for hashes, and then check the contents of each pair (making sure to gracefully deal with floating hashes that aren't delimiters) and substituting the right content in it's place. This is a lot more complex, because you'll be doing a seek/cut/insert loop, rather than just replacing content, but it allows for a lot more flexibility. cheers, barneyb On 8/25/05, Andy Mcshane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I am trying to come up with a way to do the following; User creates/edits a basic letter/mailshot document on line using FCKeditor.
