Leaving my Client...
Hello Everyone, I am having to leave a client of mine because I will be moving and have another company that will be requiring my full time attention. I wanted to pass this information along to the group here for the folks that are local to DFW. This would be a good opportunity to pick up a new client or full time position if interested. The company is a Health Beauty company by the name of OLEDA (www.oleda.com http://www.oleda.com/ ) they are in need of a Creative person who can both code in ColdFusion and design and maintain a nice looking website. The website is one that I built around 5 years ago and has not changed much. Once I built the site I had to leave and they hired a full time person to maintain it, since then it has not changed much and I have recently stepped in to help after their full time person left a few months ago. Now I have to move on again and want to make sure they end up with a good web developer. If anyone is interested here is there contact info.

RE: Google Adwords API
Hi Russ, Well I have some of it working... I can pull the data from the Adwords accounts but it a little more difficult adding or changing info to the Adwords campaigns or ads. The main issue is there is not really any support or examples for ColdFusion. So I am not real sure how to format the strings to pass into service to make changes. I know all the commands but it's the formatting that I'm having an issue with. Maybe between the two of us we can figure it out. - Neal -Original Message- Subject: RE: Google Adwords API Neal, I was wondering if you've figured this out. I am planning to start doing some work with the Adwords API soon, and would like to know if there are any gotcha's.

Google Adwords API
Does anyone have any experience with Google Adwords API service? I trying to figure out some of the sample code provided on the Goggle Groups and in the Documentation, so far I have not been able to get any of the examples to work. I can make the connection to the service but beyond that, like modifying ad settings or adding keywords I can't seem to get anything working. If anyone here has any working examples or could provide some info that would be great. So far all I have that kind of works but generates an error is this: --- cfset myEMail = [EMAIL PROTECTED] cfset myPassword = cfset myToken = _xx cfset myClient = [EMAIL PROTECTED] cfscript getGoogleWSDL = CreateObject(webservice,https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v2/Criteri onService?wsdl); addSOAPRequestHeader(getGoogleWSDL,https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v 2,email,myEMail); addSOAPRequestHeader(getGoogleWSDL,https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v 2,password,myPassword); addSOAPRequestHeader(getGoogleWSDL,https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v 2,token,myToken); addSOAPRequestHeader(getGoogleWSDL,https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v 2,useragent,ColdFusion AdWords); addSOAPRequestHeader(getGoogleWSDL,https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v 2,clientEmail,myClient); aKeywordRequest = structnew(); aKeywordRequest.adGroupId=-- AD_ID goes here --; aKeywordRequest.type=broad; aKeywordRequest.text=music; xmloutput = getGoogleWSDL.addCriteria(aKeywordRequest); /cfscript cfdump var=#xmloutput# -- Neal Bailey ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:228368 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: CF Cookie ASP Cookie?
Thanks Brian, But I am still having problems figuring this out... I would things that if ASP could store complex data types in a Cookie then shouldn't CF be able to also. It seems more like an array of data that I need to store as a cookie. I am not a Cookie Master unless we are talking about Nestlé so could someone give me an example of inserting multiple names and variables in a cookie? The data that is being inserted into the cookie is coming from our DB and its just simple login info for when they enter our Portal site. Since our site has to continue using some of the ASP and .Net pages we need a way of using the Cookies to maintain their Login Abilities and a few other details. So my main problem is getting CF to write the Cookie the same way as ASP and ..Net did so they can all share the info without having to change all of or asp pages. Well I hope all this makes sense. I have been looking everywhere on the net that could help me figure this out... but have had no luck. Maybe it just cant be done. AS for converting to a WDDX packet... I have no idea how to do that... maybe this is the way. Could anyone give an example? Thank again for all the help.

Neal Bailey Internet Marketing Manager -Original Message- From: Mosh Teitelbaum [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 28, 2005 10:46 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF Cookie ASP Cookie? Neal: ASP supports something it calls a Cookie Dictionaries. This is, essentially an associative array (or structure) of values all referenced by the same variable name. So, just like with ColdFusion structures you can do something like: myStructure.myKey in ASP, you can do something like: Response.Cookies(myStructure)(myKey) In order to support this, ASP creates a cookie named myStructure (or whatever you specify as the name) and sets the cookie value to something like: key1=value1key2=value2 So, to duplicate your ASP code in ColdFusion, you'll need code like the following: CFSET Value = CFSET Value = Value AgentNumber=#AgentNumber# CFSET Value = Value AgentName=#AgentFirst# #AgentLast# CFSET Value = Value Rank=#CurrentRank# CFSET Value = Value EntityID=#EntityID# CFCOOKIE NAME=RSHold VALUE=#Value# PATH=/ EXPIRES=Never Note that when you retrieve this Cookie via CF, you'll have to parse the string and break it up into its original pieces. You could use code like the following: CFSET RSHold = StructNew() CFLOOP LIST=#COOKIE.RSHold# DELIMITERS= INDEX=Ele CFSET Key = ListGetAt(Ele, 1, =) CFSET Value = ListGetAt(Ele, 2, =) CFSET RSHold[Key] = Value /CFLOOP And then access each piece via code like: RSHold[AgentNumber] Note, none of this code is tested so there might be some minor issues. But the logic should be pretty sound.

RE: CF Cookie ASP Cookie?
Yeah I recalled the file because it said it was too long... was not sure what to do. Anyway... yes I know it gets decoded correctly if I dump it using CFDump... But I need ASP and .Net to be able to read this same cookie. The problem is that ASP when inserting the Cookie does not encode the URl string like CF does. So when ASP tries to read the Cookie it gets all confused because it's looking for the as the delimiter but instead gets hung up on all the encoded values. Hope this makes sense... I was hoping I could find a UDF or some how have it not encode the string when save to the cookie.

CF Cookie ASP Cookie?
Hey Guys I have been searching everywhere on this and I can't seem to figure this out. I am only familiar with using CF Cookies in the standard way but I have this asp site that I am having to port over to CF and I need to write cookies in CF much the same way we did using ASP. But it seems that with ASP you can give the Cookie a general name to refer to it by. But I am having a hard time figuring this out in CF or if it's even possible. Here is an example of our ASP Cookie... Response.Cookies(RSHold)(AgentNumber) = RSAgent(AgentNumber) Response.Cookies(RSHold)(AgentName) = RTrim(RSAgent(AgentFirst))+ + RTrim(RSAgent(AgentLast)) Response.Cookies(RSHold)(Rank) = RSAgent(CurrentRank) Response.Cookies(RSHold)(EntityID) = RSAgent(EntityID) Response.Cookies(RSHold).Path=/ I need to build this same Cookie using CF but cant figure it out. Am I missing something? This is what I have so far for CF but it's not the same... cfcookie name=AgentNumber value=#AgentNumber# expires=now path=/ cfcookie name=AgentName value=#AgentFirst# #AgentLast# expires=now path=/ cfcookie name=Rank value=#CurrentRank# expires=#EntityID# path=/ Any help on this would be grateful thanks.

Search Issues...
Hey Guys... It's been a long time since I have posted here... I was wondering if anyone could help steer me in the right direction. I am currently redesigning our internal Intranet which is basically ASP and .Net. I am converting it to CF and I need to add a Search function. I no this is easy to do using Verity or some other search engine but what I am having problem with is that our Intranet has different levels of security based on what we call a user rank. So if you are rank 10 then you only see rank 10 pages if you are a rank 80 then you can see just about everything. I am trying to figure out a way to search our site but I want the search results to be restricted to the users rank. So if they are a rank 10 then they only see pages and info based on their rank. Any ideas.. Hope all this made sense... Neal Bailey Internet Marketing Manager UGA-Association Field Services ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

RE: Search Issues...
Hey Steve ok I think I understand and that's kind of what I was thinking, but I'm just not familiar enough with Verity yet. Are there any good resources for setting this up using spiders to collect the data? Also another issue is that half the site will still continue to use .Net apps. I'm not sure if there is way to run .Net in ColdFusion, so for not we just simply open them in another window. This Site is somewhat of a mess of different languages and its time to clean it up.

Neal, I would recommend taking advantage of on of the Custom fields (Custom1,Custom2 etc) in Verity and including the required rank in that field. Then after you run the search, you can filter out results based on comparing the users user rank to that field. blatant_plug You could use easily extend my Searcher component (which is free but requires my free DataMgr component to work) to do that. The Searcher component encapsulates common search functionality and keeps track of what users search for and what they choose from their searches. That is, if you have a predelection for using CFCs. http://www.bryantwebconsulting.com/cfcs/ blatant_plug Hope that helps! Steve Steve Bryant.

efflare - CFX_gfont
Hey guys, Anyone out there using the CFX_gfont extension by efflare.com with ColdFusion 7 on Window Server 2003? I been using this for the past year and it works great, but since I have upgraded to CF7 I cant seem to get it to create the font images anymore. Would any one have any ideas on this?

CGI.URL in IIS6 Problem
Hey guys... I just migrated some sites over to a Win 2003 server running IIS6 and Coldfusion 7. I am running into a problem with a simple CGI variable CGI.URL that's not working like it does on IIS5. It used to show me what's in the URL of the Browser and now it's displaying the file name. For example I have been using this CGI variable in a 404 redirect for some time. I used to be able to call a page like this. http://www.mysite.com/bobjones http://www.mysite.com/bobjones Now there is not a folder or page called bobjones and so this would send me to a custom 404 page, once redirected to the custom 404 page I would strip the bobjones from the url and do a lookup in a database to find bobjones and then redirect to a special page for him. Now when I do this same technique in IIS6 instead of getting bobjones as my CGI.URL variable I instead get user_redirect.cfm as my variable which is the filename of the actual 404 redirect page. This is what I use to get the variable which work in IIS5. cfset user = ListFirst(CGI.URL,/) Anyone have any ideas on this or maybe a different way of ding this.

UDP COM Object for Game Server?
Hey guys... I hope this makes sense... I am building a CF app that will pull Server Info from a Game server via sending info to the UDP port. I am doing this for the new Half-Life 2 Source engine. I have a few dedicated servers that I run for people and I want to post the info on the website. I have seen many apps that do this in PHP or ASP or whatever but cant seems to find much with CF so therefore I am doing it my self with the help of an old COM object found on the net. I have the COM object working and I'm able to pull some info from the servers like player info and a few other things. But I can't seem to get all the variables. And I think it's because I don't know what's in the string that is returned. So my question is this... Can I dump everything that an obj string returns? I know I can CFDUMP var=#obj# but that just give me the structure of the object and its properties. I need to display the raw string so I can see what I'm missing. Any ideas on how I can do this... I'm new to working with COM Objects so I'm not sure what to type. Thanks..

Still hunting for Newsletter system...
Hello all... Well I am still on the Hunt for a good eNewsletter Application. I have found several that will do the job but the one big problem I keep running into is the pricing and reporting. We have over 1.7 million emails and growing and we need to port from our current newsletter system to a better one. It seems most good systems want to charge you by how many email records you have stored in the database. So the cost gets pretty high and so far it seems for a million records it would cost between $8K to $14K. The big things I need to have the system do are: 1) Handle Multipart message, Html/text or mixed mode. 2) Large email storage on MSSQL 3) I don't care what language it's in 4) The most important thing is reporting. We need to know click through rate, what links were clicked the most, how many bounces etc. I am looking at the 2simplifi, E-mail Contact Pro system and it seems ok. It does not have a lot of reporting but it may work. I was wondering if anyone here has used this before or could recommend something better. Even though we have over a million records we only send about 10,000 to 20,000 emails at a time. So if the email system has a limit on how many messages it will send at once rather then how many are stored this would work for us. Thanks...

Convert .swf to .exe w/CF?
Hey guys... I was wondering if any one could give me some advice... On our internal intranet we have about 10 gigs of PowerPoint presentations that we want to convert to flash. So far we are either going to use the new FlashPaper 2 that was release recently or a different program called PowerConverter.Either way we will have these presentations available on our intranet to view in a flash format. The problem I am trying to solve is that we also want to allow the user to download the presentation as an executable file so they can view when not logged into our internet. So I am wondering if there is a way to use ColdFusion to dynamically and automatically convert the .swf file to a Flash.exe file when the user chooses to download the presentation. I was hoping not to have two copies of the same file, one as .swf and the other as .exe. I want to keep this as simple as possible because these files are updated monthly, and I think it would be a nightmare to have the people who are updating the files to have to save it in two formats and keep track of them. So the ideal solution is to have one format and have ColdFusion convert it to the other format on the fly when requested. So... anyone have any ideas on this. Can this be done?

RE: Convert .swf to .exe w/CF?
Yeah that would be nice... but a lot of these people will not have Flash player installed, only the browser plug-in, and unless the swf format is associated with IE it will not open automatically. But truly the biggest problem is this is for our average users, when you say something like right click and save as, you have already lost them and then they are calling our support line. So I really need this to be as simple as possible for them.

Does Flash (the dev tool) come with a standalone command-line projector creator tool?If it does, you can drop that on the server, and then use CFEXECUTE to convert from SWF to EXE on the fly, using a temp file, and then serve that temp file with CFCONTENT. However, I'm not 100% sure that's necessary.If you install the flash plugin, when you double-click a SWF it'll fire up just dandy.The advantage of using a standalone projector is that you don't have to have flash installed (it's included in the EXE), but if you're viewers are going to be using flash for their online viewing, and the offline viewing will only be supplemental, it shouldn't matter. cheers, barneyb On Wed, 11 Aug 2004 09:25:13 -0500, Bailey, Neal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey guys...

First off, there is such a thing called Push marketing and another thing called Pull Marketing. The kind of marketing where you see a message that say something like Click here for more information on a product that could help you do such and such. - that would be pull marketing. If you see a message that has all or most of the sales pitch right in front of you (eg: your HTML email example), that would be known as push marketing. Clearly, push marketing is typically more effective because it requires less action on the part of the customer - so that's what spammers have typically gone for. There are email systems out there that use pull marketing methods - and work well (under their given conditions) for outlook users in the situation you describe. They're out there.

Search solution.
Hey guys I want to set up a search on my personal site for my products. I have tried to use the verity collection but it just does not seem to do what I want. I need something that can simply spider my site and collect the information and links to the products. The site is very dynamic and it uses SES urls. Is there something that can do this already or can this be done with Verity? My site uses a lot of templates and includes files and this seems to mess up the verity search. Thanks for any ideas...

URL Path ?
Hey guys... I am trying to find a better way to grab the landing page URLTo be more specific I have a bot/spider tracker I built a long time ago and I want to update the way it tracks the pages it hits. Currently I use this: http://#CGI.server_name##CGI.script_name#/#cleanpathinfo# I am also using the SEO safe urls app fromwww.fusium.com I need to be able to log the entire url with variable strings and all. It works for the most part but sometimes it shows likes like www.mysite.com/index.cfm/index.cfm and things like this. Is there an easer better way to grab the url path shown in the browser at the time the bot/spider hits the page. Thanks.

WYSIWYG HTML Editors...
Hello... all I am looking for a good open source WYSIWYG HTML form field editor control thingy. Something like SPAW or FCKeditor, I guess a better question is which one of these is better or more stable. I need to implement one pretty fast but don't have a lot of time to research them all, so I thought I would consult the great collective wisdom of this list to help me decide on the right one to use. Let me know what you think of if there are any better, newer or more stable ones outthere. Thanks.

Stay in Domain...?
Ok I have one for you... I have this site that I am working on... http://65.218.34.47 http://65.218.34.47/and it is going to be somewhat template based for our users. Basically we have Division leaders that will get one of these sites to help with recruiting new people. Each site will be personalized for the Division things like menus, schedules, testimonials and a few other things will be dynamic information. What I would like to do also is have it to where if the recruiting division has their own domain name like www.recruitme.com http://www.recruitme.com/and I have the domain pointing to our servers, how can I make the site stay in the domain when the main site is www.ugaonline.com http://www.ugaonline.com/ . Does this make sense?... We will have about 130 recruiting divisions that will all have their own domain name. But we have only one website. I would like anyone with the domain name to stay in their domain when someone is referred from their site instead of being redirected like I have done in the past. Is there a way to do this... I was planning on reading the host header and using ColdFusion to determine the incoming site and display the recruiting districts information dynamically using the domain name as unique variable.

jsessionID... ?
Hello everyone... Does anyone know just how long the JSessionID gets? I see that it jumps in length a digit or two. Also it's my understanding that the Jsession is always a unique number, is this right? I know the CF session ID is not unique, but can it be made to be unique or would it be better to use the jsessionID? I'm not sure I understand the advantages of either one. I have read the info on MM site but could not really find any info that state why one is better than the other beside security and unique IDs.

Randy, Yes I also have the same problem with the OID... I simply gave up and stopped trying to set my own OID and instead let their system set the OID automatically.

Here is an example from the documentation.I'm not sure exactly where you would put this in our code, quite possibly you would put it in multiple locations of your code. blockquote * You can nest cftry blocks.

Second level of exception handling code /cfcatch /cftry /cfcatch /cftry If an exception occurs in the first level of exception-handling code, the inner cfcatch block can catch and handle it.

What I would probably do is put the code I'm trying in some kind of included source (cfinclude, custom tag, UDF or CFC) then I could call the code in multiple locations of the nested try-catch blocks without having to re-code it every time.

Linkpoint API Host not responding problem.
Hello cfersall/cfers, I am having an issue with my credit card merchant gateway, I used the Linkpoint API and I have it working great except one little problem. About 30 percent of the time I seem to get a cannot resolve host error. This will happen the instance someone places an order or I run a post order authentication against the order number. If you go back and run the order again it will go through with no problems. It seems like the secure.linkpoint.com sites does not respond quickly enough or is just not available. I was wondering if there is a way to make my processing code re-run if the Host is not responding. I was thinking of some type code that would loop through for maybe 5 times before it gave an error. Or maybe this is an issue with the merchant and they need to fix it... I'm not sure what to do or how to make it re-run the card if the host is not responding. What do you guys think I should do? I would think that the com object that it uses would already check for this.

Yeah I am using their custom tag/dlls to connect to their system. I also
thought that it should loop a few times before it errors out. I think the
problem is with the creation of the com object or something, I'm not sure
though. It seems to respond way to fast like it did not even try. Like I
said before if I backup and try to process the order again it will work. It
seem to happen way too often... 2 out of 5 orders will show a Cannot

Oh yadoesn't LinkPoint have a custom tag already built for you?I would
think that it would return an error code which you could use to inform the
customer that the payment server is down (not ideal but at least you could
handle it).That said there is no way a p[ayment gateway should be down 30
percent of the time (if they want to stay in business).I know LinkPoint is
merging with SharePay and YourPaybut it is associated with Chase
Manhattan and I would expect top notch service (although I've chatted with
them and didn't get said service).

RE: Linkpoint API Host not responding problem.
Yeah I already have two phone calls into there support, but I have been
waiting for their ColdFusion expert to call me back. They actually stop
supporting ColdFusion at the beginning of this year for some insane reason.
Don't they know ColdFusion is going to take over the world as the preferred
language? Knuckle Heads...
Anyway its driving me crazy... they said their gateway is working fine, it's
supposedly the same gateway for everyone. I have another friend using them
with an asp site and he has reported no errors but he does not do much
business over the web.
I will try to make some type of loop I guess...

I would think you could put all that code inside a CFLOOP that loops say 5
times.
-if you get a success cfbreak out of the loop
-if it fails the first time it tries 4 more times or until successful
That said...2 out of 5 times is totally unacceptable and I'd be riding
someones hiney over at LinkPoint ;-)

After placing the order with the fake cc, I got a page saying If you receive an error message or email from us stating that your credit card has listed as invalid, it has most likely listed as invalid for one of the following reasons:I'd suggest putting a header on that page saying, Credit card problem. or something. Looking at the If that starts the page, I don't know if it's saying the order probably went through but maybe didn't, or if it's saying there was actually a problem. -Yeah that error page is work in progress. I just stuck something there for now. I am working on displaying the message that comes from the merchant. And I will make the page more appealing with directions on what to do depending on the message code that I comes back. In your case the expiration was not valid.

You could possibly streamline the address information. There's a customer address, ship to address, and billing address. You ask if the ship to is the same as the customer addy, but don't ask the same for the billing. - Hmmm not sure what you mean here. Are you talking about making a same as billing button or the credit card form? Well most sites have just two addresses, a customer billing address and a shipping address. You have 3: a customer address, a shipping address, and a billing address. I'm not sure why you need the customer address, but if you do I was suggesting that when you get to the billing address question, you could have it default to the customer address and only have them fill it in if it's different.

RE: Marketing / Design ???
Matt I understand your point... And when I first had this site live last year I actually had the ordering process like this, but I kept getting emails from people wanting to know where they could see there order status. So in order to do this I needed to have the customer login where the customer could check order status and change billing or shipping information. One of the advantages of users registering is I was able to incorporate a system where the customer could login and view past orders and then also reorder that item or items without having to look for it again. This was a gold mine when I implemented this... People really liked this feature because they could never seem to remember what they ordered the last time but knew they liked it and wanted to order it again. Thanks for looking over the site and commenting. I may try to add the ability to skip the registration and just place the order. Neal Bailey www.BlissfulEssence.com E-mail:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ From: Matt Robertson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2004 1:12 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Marketing / Design ??? I just went to that site and it sure does look very nice.However, I saw something that has always been a pet peeve of mine with regard to ecommerce sites. Lets say you walk into a store.Any brick/mortar one will do.You then browse for merchandise, pick a few things up and walk up to your register... money in hand. However, before the clerk takes the money you are holding out to them... s/he asks for your username and password so they can log you in.Sure hope you remember it otherwise you'll have to go to the customer service desk and ... This has always struck me as a critical error in online store design. You have a customer standing, waiting to hand you money, yet you (not just you, personally) do something that impedes that critical flow of money from their wallet to yours, and potentially could torpedo the sale if they forget their login or somesuch and decide the login retrieval routine isn't worth their time. I have never understood this.On my stores when a user clicks 'checkout' they go straight to the secure checkout form, which contains all address and credit card info needed to complete the transaction. Step 1 of 1, if you will. Further, on that checkout form the user is given the option to 'remember me' so they don't have to fill out the form next time they visit (it remembers via cookie values, and doesn't store cc info of course). If I need to collect info on my customer base, I do it some other way than making them set up an account.In other words I make it my problem and transparent to customers. Like I said, pet peeve.Ecommerce is a tough row to hoe as it is and I think you have to work extra hard to make it super easy.My suggestion is: decide whether you *really* need a login, and ask yourself how you can make checkout a literal breeze to get thru.Rip it down to its barest components to be sure that, once you get a customer to the point of buying, there are no roadblocks in the way.

Matt thanks for the ideas... I am revisiting these ideas now that I am redesigning the backend to be more user friendly for me and my wife as she is the one that's going to be running this creation of mine. Neal Bailey _ From: Matt Robertson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Neal, What I've done for that in the past -- letting users query back for info -- is give them a link in their thank-you-for-paying-us email that then lets them view order history, status etc. When they use that link *then* they go thru a username and password picking routine, which is only necessary when they fire up order history/tracking and not used when they order. One thing I've also done is assign a customer acct ID and give them a small discount for inputting that ID on their order form.This helps build loyalty and also keeps things straight in case a cookie malfunctions and the system can't figure out who the returning buyer is.That only works if you have the margins to spare.

RE: Credit Cards - Best Practices
Thanks Matt, My response is mixed in below... *Assuming* you are shipping product immediately, or you are selling something intangible like memberships that needs no shipping delay, then you can settle immediately as well.Otherwise I'm pretty sure you are bound ethically -- and probably legally in at least some areas -- to auth at time of sale and settle at time of shipment. Yeah this is what I thought, just wanted to ask the question though as I know others are collecting up front and shipping weeks later. Think of what you personally would do to a merchant who charged your card and then shipped a week later...And think of all the merchants who swear they would never do this to a customer.By settling and not shipping you jump to the other side of this fence. ...Agreed Storing the cc info in the db is Bad News no matter how you slice it. If you absolutely must you can store the data in a field that uses public/private key encryption at reasonable (i.e. 1024 bit) strength, assuming you follow the practices necessary to do that job right.In other words sacrifice convenience and force people to enter the private key... Don't leave it on the server (!!!)Any lesser level of encryption shouldn't even be considered.My personal favorite encryption tool is cfx_textcrypt.For US$40 or thereabouts you can't beat it. Thanks I will check out the Tag, but most likely with this new version I will not be storing the CC numbers anymore. As for storing the cards in a db and downloading the info daily, I get shivers just thinking about it.If you are encrypting the data as described aboveI suppose that would be as safe as such a thing can be. However if you are storing them in the clear, and/or not transferring the file over secure ftp... Holy failure to perform due diligence, Batman! When I download the data, it was through SSL connection. I always knew it was a bad idea no mater how I sliced it... but I had to do something. It seems at that my Co Located servers were less secures than my home systems. Now my Servers are behind a nice hardware Firewall and the SQL server is connected directly to the web server through a second net card. Lastly, you can opt to do it the safest way possible:Don't store the cc numbers at all.Collect them on your secure form, send them to the card processing gateway and DON'T store them.There are many who will say this is the best way, and I think it is.It limits the customer's liability and, perhaps as importantly, your own. Yeah I agree, and this is how I will be doing it now that I have configured and setup a custom API to my merchant. Well thanks for all the great feedback, pretty much confirmed what I was thinking. Well if you want to check out the cart and run it through its paces for security issue or functionality let me know I will post the link if any one is interested.

Just wanted to add my agreement to Matt's post here...and add that you can still do authorize at the time of sale and then capture later, at least with most processors I have worked with. Most will return a transaction ID when they run the authorization which you can later use to then capture the funds. You can do returns as well, either through your application or using their online system, so there really is no need to have the credit card number at all. Of course, convincing clients of that is another problem altogether! _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Marketing / Design ???
I have a question... >From a marketing standpoint and or shopping cart design, which is better? (1.) Customer selects a product and presses the buy button and is then directed to the checkout page where they can update their cart, checkout or press the continue shopping button which will take them back to the product page. Or (2.) The customer presses the buy button and the item is added to the cart and the customer stays on the page instead of being redirected to the checkout page, of course the item will appear on a little box as being added with a display of the current total. I have seen it both ways on many shopping carts, but personally I prefer number 2 as this is how I do it on mine. I was wondering if there is any reason as far as marketing goes to doing it the other way. I guess it depends on what the products is but I still would think redirecting them to the checkout page is almost like rushing them though a nice dinner so you can get your tip. Any comments?

Good points everyone... I am still having a hard time to whether I should change the way I am currently handling a customer when the select a product.

Here check it out and let me know if you think should change it to direct to the checkout page or just leave it a lone with maybe a few adjustments. Feel free to run test orders and try to break the system use a test card number if you want, 4111.I am trying to workout all the bugs and make sure it functions properly. http://www.BlissfulEssence.com http://www.blissfulessence.com/ Any other comments are welcome...

I have implement it both ways -- but I like a third way that is a combo of the 2: 1) When the 1st item is added to the cart, display the cart with its single line item content -- have buttons for checkout and continue shopping.But, also display a checked checkbox that says Display cart when each item is added to cart. Then the user can choose if he wants to see the cart displayed or not. The shopping and Checkout pages would also contain a Display cart button.

Credit Cards - Best Practices
Hello CFers... I was wondering what are the best practices for credit card processing over the web. Should you pre-authorize a customer's card during check out and then run a batch transaction at the end of the day? Or should you run the card as a final sale and gather the funds immediately.Just as I have heard people doing it both ways and I am in the process of converting my cart over to an automatic Card processor API. What are the pros and cons of both... Also I have noticed that many shopping carts store their Credit card info in the database. I have a little utility (MS Access) that transfers the customer's info to my system at home and then deletes all credit card info. This usually runs twice a day. Is there a better way to keep the card info secure?

Form Name as Variable?
Hello all, This seems simple... but I can't figure it out... I need to set a Form Name as a variable. Example: if I have a form that generates a list like: stateForm1 = TX,CA,MI,UT,FL stateForm2 = TX,UT,FL stateForm3 = TX,WA How can I set stateForm1 as its own variable? Hope this makes sense.

RE: Keyword Tracking?
Thanks Geoff, I had already found this his site. Parsing the keywords from one type of search engine is the easy part but what I am trying to do is collect the referrer keywords used on all SEs or at least the most popular ones. I kind of have something working but, I run into issue with Overture and its affiliates. Overture is using the Inktomi technology and for some reason they do not refer directly to the sites they list in the results instead it looks like they pass it to some type of redirect page first therefore losing refer. I'm sure this has something to do with their pay for placement system. Thanks for the link though... its going to the bookmarks.

RE: Keyword Tracking?
Hey thanks Graig, This works great... seems a lot more simple than what I had started. I tested on many SEs and it worked great. I did notice that it did not work on Overture and their affiliates. This is an issue I had with my code also. Do you have any thoughts on this? Also do you have a list of Search Engines your code has trouble with? I will try to expand on it and will send you what ever I come up with... Hopefully it will be useful to all, should be good to see what keywords are delivering traffic to your sites. Thanks again.

RE: Keyword Tracking?
Not sure if anyone saw this as I did not receive any responses. I think also I might have screwed the email up as I posted it to another list at the same time, Sorry about that. Is it possible to extract the keywords from a referring URL coming from a search engine? The biggest problem I see is that every search engines referring string is different. I guess I could try to detect which SE it's coming from and then run a specific procedure to strip out the key words. Not sure how efficient this would be though as I think SEs are always changing the way they output their search string. Any ideas on this... could I maybe use the log files in some way. Any ideas... Below is how I see the referring links from the particular SE. Thanks for any advice on this.

Hello folks... I am about to start up a new project that includes building a site statistic application for our websites. I know you are probable thinking why not use the many that exist already like Webtrends. The main issue I am faced with is that we have 15 thousand websites that are actually all the same site. What we have are 15 thousand agents that have custom configured websites, they basically go into a studio area and configure all their settings from layout/design, color, content, links, and a few other things they can add on the fly, then their website is created for them once the finish the setup. So what I would like to do is store all the referrer links coming to each site and build a chart for each agent that will tell them where their traffic is coming from and what keywords people are using to find their sites. So I am looking for some insight on where to start with this. I need a way to strip out all the key words from a URL and then store them in a db for reporting. I have found something on CFLib.org but it only gives me keywords Google referrers. Does anyone have any ideas on code that will tell me the keywords coming from all search engines? Thanks for any input.

Count Orders by Month - Help
Hey guys, I need a little direction... I am trying to count orders placed for each month. I have an EnteredDate field and all I am trying to do is display/count how many orders were placed for each particular month. For some reason I cannot get this to work. I am using SQL and MX 6.1. Can someone show me a snippet of code to start with... Once I get the values, I want to cfchart it. This I can do... but I always have problem with dates and SQL. Also since it's obvious I suck at SQL, is there some type of program that can help me write SQL statements. I usually can figure it out but my biggest problem is remembering how to format everything (I waste so much on this). It would be great if there was something like Dreamweaver where it has a drop down list of options to choose from as you start to type. Well I guess I will stick with my 1200 page Sams book.

JavaScript Issue on CFMX 6.1
Hey guys,
I need a little _javascript_ help. I use the following script to validate two
form fields. It's an either or script and it works on an ASP page but when
running on CF MX 6.1 it only partially works. When you get prompted to fill
in the requested field and select OK to continue it still process the form
instead of halting. Any ideas...
!--- Start of Validation Script ---
script Language=_javascript_
!--
function Form1_Validator(theForm)
{
if ((theForm.EMailaddress.value == ) (theForm.BusinessPhone.value ==
) (theForm.HomePhone.value == ))
{
alert(Please enter a value for a \Phone Number\ or the \EMail
Address\ field.);
theForm.EmailAddress.focus();
return (false);
}
return (true);
}
--
/script
!--- End of Validation Script ---
!--- Start of Form ---
form name=form1 method=post
action="">
pg=15 Form1_Validator(this)
Phone: input type=text name=HomePhone
Email: input type=text name=EMailaddress
/form
!--- End of Form ---
I'm not a _javascript_ person so if you know of a better script that does the
same thing let me know. Thanks.

Change the name of the form to theform. Also, try to get into the habit of
using the proper hierarchy -
window.document.formname.fieldname.value for netscape compatibility.
