RE: Cold Fusion Magazine? Any Good?
Jeff, I ordered it when I started with CF and have definitely picked up useful information. Not so much from the examples but the ideas or articles put me on the rite path to upgrade and enhance the functionality of the web that I am working on. I have done a lot of search through the archived issues that helped. I am definitely counting on it to help with CF5 when it comes out. -Original Message- From: Jeff Fongemie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 20, 2001 9:06 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Cold Fusion Magazine? Any Good? Hello cf-talk, I've seen the Cold Fusion magazine website "Cold Fusion Developers Journal" on the web. Is the magazine any good? I'm thinking of getting a subscription, but have never seen one. Fairly expensive magazine!

RE: Verity Question....
If you have two seperate directories, you may want to make them two spereate collections and just search them both at the same time. -Original Message- From: Adam Sokolic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 16, 2001 12:17 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Verity Question I have a verity search set up and working fine, the problem I'm having is I have a group of files that reside outside the directory where the collection is. Is it possible (somehow) that when the results are pulled up to link them outside the Collections directory. The only thing I can think to do would be to set the collection at a higher level and exclude everything but the three directories that would be effected. I also have search result that I would like to link to an external web page...and I'm having no luck with that either. Any help would be appreciated.

error trapping
I am trapping errors from a CFSEARCH and need some ideas. The search covers both a database search and document search. I assume that trapping for type ANY is the only thing that I can do.but that is why I ask ya'll. * Do you normally display a generic template when you trap an errorinstead of displaying the CF error page? * Should I be trapping (cfthrow) any thing to stop people from entering a search criteria that shouldn't be used (CF commands?special characters?) * Can I parse out the errors from trap do help determine what the user did and notify them of their mistake? * anything else? thanx for your help Ropo ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Verity... again...
Well, there are actually a couple different ways to do this. The first question is are you going against a database collection or a collection of files? I specifically have been working against MANY collections of files. One way of doing this is passing the collections and the original criteria to another form and allowing the user to enter a new criteria to search for. Append " and NEW_CRITERIA" together and do a new search. -Original Message- From: Andrew@home [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 20, 2001 4:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Verity... again... Hi All! I have a question about Verity, that has already probably been discussed here, so I apologize for redundancies... I have been using Verity, and have been getting quite used to it. I am wondering, how do I do a 2-deep search, a 'search within a search'? As I understand it, it can be done with CF and Verity, but being the goofball newbie that I am, I can't figure it out.

Verity by date
Is it possible to search based on the date a file was created? Is it possible to display the date of a file? If yes, can I sort on that date?

Query Search results (nextpage) ... WDDX?
I have a search results page that displays a max of 100 records at a shot. Sometimes the total results exceed several thousand records. In an attempt to speed up the 'next page' processing I no longer use the CFSEARCH using startrow with the CFOUTPUT query using maxrows b/c of the processing time to research all the indexes I have created. I now do the CFSEARCH and use the CFOUTPUT query using maxrow and startrow (which is calculated and passed) the first time into the form. I use WDDX to convert the results of the search and pass it. I am calling the same form over again and determine if this is the first call or a call there after. If it is not the first time, I convert the query from WDDX and run CFOUTPUT query. THE PROBLEM: Sometimes, if there are a high number of result records, there is a long processing time on the results page after the first time. Is this common with passing the results using WDDX or is there a better way to do this type of next page processing for search results? Also, when I process 'next page' more than once the BACK button on the browser is disabled and I can not get back to the original 100 results. a bit of code.FORM is SearchResult_test.cfm some processing. No Score File Title Search Category lotsa processing to display the results... .Hidden input fields ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Dumb Questions :: About Verity :: Intranets
You can set up a collection for each db table/app/information as well as creating individual collections for a group of documents. Then you can set up a schedule to index these collections during off hours. The search time for smaller db collections (< 10,000 records) is acceptable. I currently have 50+ collections including 2 db tables. Although finding information on verity and collections can be cumbersome. -Original Message- From: Paul Ihrig [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 30, 2001 7:25 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Dumb Questions :: About Verity :: Intranets Hello All! this is going to sound dumb.
