I recently took on a project where I was asked to create the markup
for a site.  I would then hand the XHTML and CSS to a .NET programmer
who's responsible for making it "live" (populating the pages).

I can't tell you how frustrating an experience this is.  I'm stunned

RE: cannot install iis connector

I had the same problem.  I exhausted every solution I found on the web.
This went on for weeks.  I even tried Macromedia (email) support but finally
gave up and used the built-in CF webserver.

Subject: cannot install iis connector

I have windows xp pro sp2, and I'm trying to install CF MX 6.1, and it
installs everything, except at the end tells me that it could not install
the IIS connector.  When I try running the bat file that installs it, I get
the following:

 

WARNING!  This will install the ColdFusion MX IIS Connector at the global
level

 

Press Control+C to abort.

Press any key to continue . . .

Created file C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\jrunwin32.dll

Using C:\Inetpub\wwwroot for cfwebroot

Could not connect to any JRun/ColdFusion servers on host localhost.

Possible causes:

o Server not running

  -Start Macromedia JRun4 or ColdFusion MX server

o Server running

  -JNDI listen port in jndi.properties blocked by TCP/IP filtering or
firewall

   on server

  -host restriction in security.properties blocking communication with
server

Press any key to continue . . .

 

 

 

I have checked everything, disabled the firewall and uninstalled and
reinstalled IIS and CFMX several times.  I even tried installing MX 7, same
problem.  Has anyone run into this problem before?  Should I just scratch
IIS and install apache?  I've never run into an issue like this before, and
I've installed MX over a dozen times.

I never could get the Web Server Configuration Tool to work (after
unblocking ports, etc.), so (per Macromedia) I followed the instructions to
configure it manually (http://www.macromedia.com/go/tn_19575).

Now, IIS is very slow when browsing directories, and CF pages are never

Is there a simple way to install CF 7 on Win XP Pro with IIS?  I've been

You can refer to the next row in a query... Something like this might work:

Basically, if we're not on the last row, and the current row's RatePct
doesn't equal the next rows RatePct, highlight it.

Subject: Best way to do this? Data structure?

I know this is a simple problem, but I must have too many projects on my
plate because I haven't been able to get this one.  I have a query that
returns data like:
DescriptionOrderDate RatePct
1 Week  4/01/053.5
1 Week  3/01/053.6
1 Week  2/01/053.6
2 Week  4/01/052.5
2 Week  3/01/052.5
2 Week  2/01/052.0

The primary key is the Description/Order Date and it is supposed to be in
descending order.  The data is then displayed to the user in a table
based on description for the row and the OrderDate for the column, like:

   4/01/05   3/01/05 2/01/05
1 Week   3.5   3.63.6
2 Week   2.5   2.52.0

A simple CFOUTPUT with a GROUP attribute on Description works fine to
display this table.  However, now I need to color-code the ratepct if the
value has changed.  Since the values are displayed in descending order, I
cannot do it in the CFOUTPUT loop since I won't know if the data changed
until the next time through the loop.  So, in the above example, the 3.5
should be highlighted in row 1 as a data change since the previous value was
3.6 and the 2.5 in the 3/01/05 column should be highlighted in the previous
value was 2.0.  My initial thought was to have a data structure that held
the contents of the query that I could loop through prior to display and set
a new key/value pair for color.  I have experimented with various
combinations of structs and arrays and haven't found the best way to do
this.  Any ideas??  Thanks in advance.

Sending Mail through IIS

[Brad Roberts]

I'm having trouble sending email on my dedicated server.  CF sends the
email, but it's never delivered, and doesn't bounce back.  I tried sending
an email through Outlook Express and it worked fine.  I'm using the SMTP
server provided by the hosting company.

 

The hosting co. recommended sending through localhost and relaying it to
their smtp server.  My questions are:

 

Does this sound like it would fix the problem?

If so, what's the easiest way to setup SMTP (I don't need POP)?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Brad

RE: Web Based Mail Merge? (not email!)

[Brad Roberts]

It would be great if you could point to an online data source in Word.

Tell Word that your CSV file is at http://mysite.com/data.csv.  Everyone
would have a copy of the Word file.  Then just schedule CF to update your
CSV.

Maybe some VBScript or .NET?  Anyone know if that's possible?

Subject: RE: Web Based Mail Merge? (not email!)

I did something like this some time ago, I created the word document, put
place holders in for my data, saved it as an rtf file. I then had to copy
the RTF text into a .cfm page, process my place holders to put my text in
and then save the RTF text back out to another file. This worked well. This
was fine when I could control content of the document. Where this
requirement now differs is that I want the user to create their own RTF
documents and then upload them to our web server into a template directory. 
 
Let me run this idea by you, If I provide the user with a list of
pre-defined merge field codes, i.e. the coldfusion code that maps to a
required peice of data in the database, so that they can create their very
own RTF documents, let them upload the document to the template directory on
the server, I could then read the RTF file line by line to replace the merge
fields with data and write out completed letters to another file. Does
anybody see any problems with this idea? Are text file read & writes much of
an overhead for the server? I envisage that anywhere between 1 - 300+
letters may need to be produced at any one time.




you could generate RTF files on the files.

add <> to a word document - save as RTF and us CF to
generate RTF and make available for download.

  Are PRICE, BEDS and BATHS numeric columns within the database? In the
first
  query, you're treating them as if they aren't, but in the second, you're
  treating them as numeric.

Query of Query Error

I get the following error:
Query Of Queries runtime error.
Unsupported type comparison.

Here's my code:


	select	*
	from		variables.listings.qResults
	where	price between 1 AND 999
		AND	beds >= 0
		AND	baths >= 0



The query I'm querying looks like this:

street		price		beds			baths
123 Some Street	249900	3			2
501 Another St.	189000	[empty string]	[empty string]
710 Third St.	95000		2			1


Would the empty strings have anything to do with it?  If so, is there a
workaround?

  Subject: Re: desktop application

  Unless I am mistaken, the company that made cfAnywhere was purchased by
  Allaire & cfAnywhare became JRun

  I have always felt that CF would be very good for ad hoc desktop apps.

  With the advent of the initial version of CFMX and its integrated JRun,
  and integrated RDBMS (PointBase) it seemed that everything existed in a
  single pkg to easily do this --- and it was a rather trivial install.

  The latest versions of CFMX perform much better, compile directly to
  Java bytecode.  so performance is greatly improved.  There is a looser
  integration with JRun (more install options) and a somewhat more
  difficult install.

  But, it's still all right there in a single package.  I can write
  desktop apps with CFMX that access the web, local databases, local
  files, execute other programs or scripts, yadda, yadda, yadda,

  I can use the familiar HTML Browser as a front end and UI.  Or, I can
  use a RIA with Flash or Robs PIA front end.

  When you do web development and testing on a single machine, as I do,
  every CF application is a desktop application.

  Some apps I write, never go beyond localhost -- these in effect, are
  desktop only CF apps.

  But more often than not, I need to combine dynamic local data (from
  files, databases, other desktop applications)  with other dynamic data
  available on the web.  Then a combo Desktop/Web app is in order.

  A good example of a combo app is a status monitor where local
  historical data is combined with dynamic data from the web.  Some
  examples might be:

  --- monitoring the status of multiple web servers
  --- monitoring stock portfolios *
  --- tracking shipments
  --- monitoring sales leads & tele-marketing

  * The stock portfolio app is one that I use daily -- during market
  hours it shows me how my stocks are performing with real-time data from
  the web.  It alerts me of stocks that need attention by combining the
  web data with local data that contains (buy/sell) thresholds I have set
  and other position information (purchase price, days held) that may
  have tax implications.

  Given an ideal world I could write quite a nice cross-platform,
  self-contained desktop(or combo) app in CFMX and have trial versions
  available (for download and/or on CD) that would self install
  (including, CFMX, JRun, DB) or be run from CD.  (Of course, in the
  ideal world, licensing and pricing of the integrated products would be
  changed to satisfy the needs of this broader market).

  I wish I could do that!

Actually, I DON'T want to update the server struct.  It has default data
that I use to populate "local" structures.  My problem is that the server
struct is being updated somehow, but I don't want it to.  Only the query is
updated, not the simple values of the struct.

Hope that makes sense.

  When you run structAppend(a,b) you are appending B onto A. In your case,
you
  appended Server onto Data. If you wanted to update the server scope why
  didn't you just manipulate it directly? If you prefer using a pointer, you
  can use

  data = "">

  Note - I do not recommend directly accessing server variables from CFCs.
If
  your intent is to add X to a server variable, you should pass it in as an
  argument, or save the result, etc:

Weird CFC Problem

[Brad Roberts]

The only way I know to explain this is to give an example.

// THIS STRUCT IS IN SERVER SCOPE (3 simple values and a query)
server.myData = structNew();
server.myData.var_1 = "";
server.myData.var_2 = "";

I've thought about that... but, what's the best way to implement it?
Maybe...


  don't append cfid/cftoken

  append cfid/cftoken


Without keeping a massive list of search engine UA's, is there a another way
to check for spiders?  Or, would you just comprise a list of the top
crawlers, and if so, any suggestions on a list of (popular) words to test
against?

RE: CFML/ASP equivalents

[Brad Roberts]

I've ran into situations where a site like this would be very valuable.

It would be great to take it a step further, with PHP comparisons as well.
You could deal with each task (CF tag) individually, as well as compare
small sample applications that demonstrated how things works together.

I could see this helping CF, ASP, & PHP developers who are curious about how
do do something in one of the other languages.

I think the site would be easy to create if it were a community based, where
developers could contribute how you might handle tasks in each language.
I'm sure best practices would be something to consider as well, since
different people will have their own opinions on how to best accomplish a
task.

Just some thoughts,

Brad

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if harvesters are able to get email
addresses from your CFMAIL tags, you've got bigger problems than spam!

Since CFMAIL is used on the server side to Send email, the email address is
never displayed in the browser.

I don't exactly know, but the harvesters are getting smarter and
smarter. I did a test page with a standard CFMAIL on it, using a new
email address I set up for just the test, and I got my first 10 SPAM
email at that address less than 24 hours later.

Believe me, they ARE parsing CFMAIL tags and acquiring the addresses.

Will try another test setting the address in the application file and
see what happens.

RE: Solution/suggetion...

[Brad Roberts]

Here's how I'd do it (if I understand correctly).

Before the user can get to the employee form (to add a new employee), have
them enter the DOB (SSN may be better if that's part of your data).  This
would be one page with one form field.

Once they have entered a DOB, query to look up employees that match.  If no
employees exist, go to the New Employee form.  If employees do exist,
display them and put the continue button at the bottom.  Clicking on the
continue button will simply take them to the New Employee form.

Checking the DOB (or SSN) before they input the other criteria will save
them time if the employee already exists.  Otherwise, they've typed in all
of the employee info, only to find out it's already in the database.

Hope this makes sence.

  Hi

  I am providing user a form to add new employees in the system. Problem
  I am facing is that users are adding same employees twice (as adding is
  managed by different departments). Now this adding form
  (dsp_addEmployee.cfm) is quite complicated and I dont want to touch it
  at all neither do I want to touch its act page (act_addEmployee.cfm)
  where its acutally adding looking at loads of different criterias.
  Solution we came up with is that check the date of birth in the form as
  user submits the form and provide the user with list a of all employees
  for that date of birth and a message that checks if the employee already
  exist. If h/she does then go somewhere (doesn't matter where), if no
  then click on CONTINUE and it will run the act page. This CONTINUE seems
  a bit tricky as I can have a new page called
  dsp_ShowEmployeesForSameDOB.cfm between dsp_addEmployee.cfm and
  act_addEmployee. But on continue that dsp_ShowEmployeesForSameDOB.cfm
  needs to carry all form variables (attributes here as i am using FB3). I
  cannot store them again in hidden variables as its too complicated and
  messy.

  So whats the solution for this problem?

Hi all,

New to the list/ColdFusion and need some advice from you chaps. Basically, I
want to convert a some VB to run on ColdFusion and was wondering whether
Coldfusion has an equivalent function to the following VB functions. (I need
to know whether it's worth wasting my time.)

Len() - Returns an integer containing either the number of characters in a
string or the number of bytes required to store a variable
Mid() - Returns a string containing a specified number of characters from a
string
IsNumeric() - Returns a Boolean value indicating whether an _expression_ can
be evaluated as a number.
CInt() - Returns an _expression_ that has been converted to a Variant of
subtype Integer.
CStr() - Returns an _expression_ that has been converted to a Variant of
subtype String
IsUpper() - Indicates whether a Unicode character is categorized as an
uppercase letter.
InStr() - Returns an integer specifying the start position of the first
occurrence of one string within another.
Left() - Returns a string containing a specified number of characters from
the left side of a string.

Any feedback would be very helpful.

Thanks,
Rob

RE: Breadcrumbs in Cold Fusion

[Brad Roberts]

For a tree view, I built a tag based off of Piet Niederhausen's
cf_traverseTree, which uses Joe Celko's algorithim from his book "SQL for
Smarties".
http://www.niederhausen.net/piet/dev/customtags/index.html  The code is a
lot simpler... it took me hours to figure it out.  And, instead of taking a
query, it takes a stucture.  You can still use a query, you just have to
convert it to a structure... I think there's a UDF on cflib.org for this.
Or, you could re-code it to take a query.

For breadcrumbs, I built a UDF that takes a scruct of your pages with
parent/child relationships.  The UDF traverses the structure and returns an
array with the pages in order.  Then, you can loop over the array and format
your links however you wish.

I use these two tags together in my CMS and they work great.

If anyone's interested, send me an email...

RE: Previous/Next with Files

[Brad Roberts]

I like Jamie's method and think it's probably the best, but I thought I'd
just throw another idea into the mix.  I wrote a couple of (untested) UDF's
that will recursively look for the previous/next file until it finds it.
The "safetyCounter" is there to avoid an endless loop, so you can adjust the
number as you see fit.

Just a thought.

-Brad


function getPreviousFile(fileDir,fileID) {
	var newID = fileID - 1;
	var filePath = fileDir & '\' & newID & '.cfm');

	var safetyCounter = 1;
	if (arrayLen(arguments GTE 3)) { safetyCounter = arguments[3] + 1;
	if (safetyCounter GTE 20) { return ""; }

	if (fileExists(filePath)) {
		return newID;
	} else {
		return getPreviousFile(fileDir, newID, safetyCounter);
	}
}

function getNextFile(fileDir,fileID) {
	var newID = fileID + 1;
	var filePath = fileDir & '\' & newID & '.cfm');

	var safetyCounter = 1;
	if (arrayLen(arguments GTE 3)) { safetyCounter = arguments[3] + 1;
	if (safetyCounter GTE 20) { return ""; }

	if (fileExists(filePath)) {
		return newID;
	} else {

Subject: Previous/Next with Files


I have a directory that can have a small amount or possibly a large amount
of files (3,000) files.

Here would be an excerpt of the directory:

10330.cfm
10331.cfm
10336.cfm
10440.cfm
10441.cfm
10442.cfm
10445.cfm etc..

If someone is looking at 10440.cfm, I would like to have two links a link to
10336.cfm (previous) and a link to 10441.cfm (next).

I could do a CFdirectory and populate a list with all the file names and
then look to the before and after the selected file for the next/previous,
but that seems alittle intensive.

Does anyone have any suggestions on the most efficient way to get
next/previous files?

Any help would be appreciated!

http://www.intrafoundation.com/ihtk.asp

Doesn't do DNS, but there is a free DNS COM object floating around, as
well as some command line scripts that MS gives away to manage dns.
I had a few issues with it in the past, but it's been a while, and it
could have been my fault.

Personally I'd go with straight ADSI stuff using scripts, VB, .Net, or
whatever else floats your boat, and not worrying about using CF except
to run whatever scripts/executable are needed. I can say that .Net
makes working with ADSI much less painful, and it's guaranteed (as
guaranteed as anything MS) to be supported in future versions of
Windows...

So, how do you call these methods from within CF?  Any examples you can

CFMX allows basic xml parsing in the simplest form(i.e array and structs)
If you are trying to accomlish XML Parsing in the Popular or Best ways..
I suggest you use XML DOM Parsing with Java.

You have alot functions like

getParentNode(), getChildNode etc to accomplish tasks easier..
Here is some documentation on XML Node
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/org/w3c/dom/Node.html

RE: XML Question

[Brad Roberts]

Let me re-ask my question...

What's the best way to insert a child element under , when you
don't know where it's at in the XML doc?  All you know is that it has an
attribute "id" and the value is "2".

Another thought (along the same lines), if you wanted to show the ancestors
of a specific element, how would this be accomplished?  An example would be
displaying "breadcrumbs".  Again, all you would know is the page id.  Would
this require a recursive udf/tag?  And if so, how do you get the parent
element of a given element.  I can't find this anywhere in the docs (or
web).

Get the children of an element, easy... get the parent of an element, I have
no clue...

Thanks,

Brad

I like the concept allot.  In addition to the earlier comments, I would add
the name, while very descriptive, appropriate and amusing, could cause
troubles for those of us who work in highly monitored/politically correct
work places.  It's may not be a very "Work Safe" name.

If this is a concern to you, you may consider something along the lines of
"Spaghetti Code" if that's available (maybe have both domains running the
same application.

Just a suggestion.

Another one that could be fun is some kind of ranking of the aggrieve of the
bad code?

Caching CFCs... again

[Brad Roberts]

I posted earlier, but I'm still trying to figure this out (sorta new to
CFCs)...

My CFC is over 1200 lines of code.  I can't put it into server or
application scope because if the CFC is executed by simultaneous requests, a
second call to the CFC might overwrite data in the first call.  How might
cflock come into play?

The only thing I think I'm left with is the session scope, but it seems like
I'd get better performance by just not caching it.

Thoughts?

I hope this makes sense... like I said, I'm just getting into CFCs and lots
of questions are racing around in my head.

Then only thing I ran into is that the following lines of code are NOT
needed:








Unless you're going to add a ..Throw an error.. to the two

TWICE to your query string which may give unexpected results.

Subject: PayPal integration


Slightly off topic:

I am looking at adding PayPal as a payment option to a ColdFusion
shopping cart we wrote.  As far as I can tell, you can't integrate it
very tightly.  I see two ways:

1) Buy Now Button Method: allows a user to jump from a product detail
page to the PayPal checkout form.  Only allows one item to be purchased
at a time.   Bypasses all our checkout pages including shipping and tax
calculation.

2) Shopping Cart Method:  offers Add To Cart buttons on each product
page.  Clicking this button opens a new window with a PayPal shopping
cart in it.  Allows more than one item to be purchased at a time.
Bypasses all our checkout pages including shipping and tax calculation.


Am I understanding this right?  Is there any other way to do it?  If we
add this feature as an option, when orders are placed using PayPal they
wouldn't be in our system because we have no way of knowing if the order
went through, or if the user changed quantities, etc.

Thanks for any input.
-Ryan

CFC's & Shared Scopes

[Brad Roberts]

If I cache a CFC in the Server scope, then copy it to a local scope (to
avoid locking), is there any performance gain?  Or, should I forget the
Server scope all together?

I've got a CFC that will be shared across multiple sites... how do you guys
normally handle this?... put it in a shared scope? make it available as
a webservice?... just curious.

The tags are shared by a number of web sites.  I want to be able have

Subject: XML shopping cart?


I have just started to get my feet wet with XML and CF.

I thought I would play with the idea of converting my current shopping
basket code so it would store all of the items in an XML structure that
is stored in a session variable.

I have figured out how to create the XML structure and search the
structure for the items with XmlSearch().

My question is how do I delete XML nodes from the structure?  Like when
someone wants to remove an item from their shopping basket.

Also how do you append new nodes to the XML structure?  I am assuming
you use XmlElemNew() but I have not tried it yet.

Also how do you edit the XML structure?  Like when a person updates the
quantity of a product.

Thanks,
Chad

RE: XML Best Practices - Resources

[Brad Roberts]

Just because I like a certain format, doesn't mean it's the best way to do
it.

A good analogy is how data is stored in a database.  Sure, I can store a
persons full name in one field of my db, but it's better to store first,
middle, and last names separately.

So, I'm wondering if there are "Best Practices" when storing certain types
of info (credit cards, phone numbers, currency, etc.) in XML.

A while back (about a year ago), I came across a document (I think it was a
PowerPoint slide) on making a presentation.  It had some tips on what to do
and what not to do.  IIRC, I think it was Michael Dinowitz that created it,
but could be mistaken.

Anyone remember this?

RE: Hiding Javascript Source

[Brad Roberts]

LOL... yeah, kindof like making your server hacker proof, unplug it!

Thanks for all the tips... it seemed like a good thought when I thought of
it... and don't ask where I was when I thought of it :)

You're right!  It was worth a try...  it's still better than the "no right

that?

nutshell).

RE: Here's An Example: WAS [Hiding Javascript Source]

[Brad Roberts]

Well... if there's no way of preventing the browser from caching the page,
then I guess it's definitely not fool proof.

But heck, it sure beats the "no right click" method!

Yeap!  There's the loophole.  Is there a sure-fire way of preventing the
browser from caching the page?

RE: Hiding Javascript Source

[Brad Roberts]

I think your browser may have cached it... hmmm... I'll add some code to
prevent the page from being cached.  May not fully solve the problem,
