CF5 truncating my data

2002-06-06 Thread Chris Bohill

Is the following a bug in CF5, and if so has a solution/workaround? It
did previously work in 4.5, but now it is acting very strangely. Has
this change in behavior been documented somewhere?

The problem is occuring on pages that use input range validation for
numeric fields. When the user enters a numeric float value, it gets
converted to integer, truncating the answer, and losing data.This does
not happen in 4.5, yet the code is exactly the same.

This is a serious problem to us, as data is getting lost on the
page-reload.

This is the only info I could find related to the problem, but no
solution.

RE: Session variable question

2002-04-23 Thread Chris Bohill

If there is a proxy server being used, the pages may be getting cached
by the server. If cached, then user A can pull a cached page belonging
to user B.

The easiest solution is to add a random number at the end of each URL.
This will mean the pages will never be the same (well the likelihood is
drastically reduced)

Cheers,

Chris Bohill.

Subject: Session variable question


I have seen this asked in the cf forums on macromedias site but don't
see a 
clear answer so hopefully someone here can give me a clue. We have an
order 
entry app running internally. I have 2 people that are in our sales dept

that keep turning into one another while logged in. An example is,
salesman 
A will be logged in and have administrative rights while salesman B will
be 
logged in on another machine, doesn't have admin rights, but all of a 
sudden salesman B will have access to all the Admin stuff and be logged
in 
as salesman A. One other weird thing is if salesman A logs out, it kills

the session for salesman B. All session variables have been locked when 
they are created. The only thing I can think that might be happening is 
that the cfid and cftoken for these 2 guys are the same? we have about
25 
people using this system and only these 2 people have this problem. If 
someone could give me an idea of what's going on I would really
appreciate it.

Thanks,
Ben Densmore

CFTTP and multiple file uploads??

2002-03-21 Thread Chris Bohill

Could anyone advise me on the following: 
Is there anyway of uploading more than 1 file at a time using the

My predicament is the following: 
The client has a folder on his c: drive full of images (up to 60, it
will be the same folder every time) so instead of uploading them to the
server one at a time give him the ability to upload them either all at
once or batches of 10 etc. My initial thoughts are to use  and
 etc. 
Has anyone done this before or have any advise. 
Any advise will be welcome.

Saving a web page as an image

2002-02-14 Thread Chris Bohill

This is a probably shot in the dark, but is there a custom tag or code
out there that will allow a user, at the click of a button, to capture
the current web page that they are on, and save it as an image.

Basically I have a client who is viewing dynamically generated graphs on
a web page. Instead of having to take a screen dump, and save it as an
image in some sort of graphics tool, the user wants to click a button
and have that current page saved automatically as an image so that he
can use it in future presentations.

Is there an solution to this, or will the client have to do it the old
fashioned way.

Cheers,

RE: "Session Swapping" incident - proxy servers

2002-02-01 Thread Chris Bohill

Dimo,

Our problem like yours is very isolated, happening to the same people,
every once in a while. Unfortunately this "every once in a while", was
once too much.

It was actually Dan Allison who helped to confirm this for us (thanks
Dan!!). We had a suspicion that it might have been the proxy servers,
but were unsure why. Dan helped to explain this, and provide a solution!

This is what he wrote: 

We had the same issue with session swapping about a 1 year and a half
ago.
It has nothing to do with your locking of variables, those looked fine.
It
actually is a proxy server issue.  You've probably seen that all the
session
swapping occurs within a single company.  User from different companies
are
not seeing each others data.

That's because the proxy servers are caching the pages for speed.  I'm
happy
to tell you that it is an easy fix.  All you have to do is create a new
client or session variable for each user that is a random number and
then
append that variable to your links.  You should append it to all of your
links if possible, but if you can't do that right away you should append
it
to the pages that load after a user logs in.

Here's an example  index.cfm?ControlNumber=86483682&The rest of your 
URL
vars

We have a site that uses frames and after a user logs in they go to the
frameset.  I just appended the variable to the frame calls and it solved
my
swapping issues.  We then re-built our site and appended the variable to
all
the links in the site.  There were quite a few but we have not had a
session
swapping incident since.

HTH,

Chris.

Chris:

I just stumbled upon your thread about "identities" sharing. We have 
*EXACTLY* the same problem here, we run a CF-based forum application for

  maybe 1000-2000 users that are usually within the same company network

and we have occasionally reports for mixed identities. Usually they 
happen when people post a message to a thread - they click "POST", it is

stored correctly in the DB but as soon as the next page loads they seem 
to be a different user that is using the system as the same time.

We have all the things you mentioned in place - session variables 
strictly locked, etc. but never figured it out. Of course, the incidence

of these problems is not that high and the priority is still relatively
low.

What makes you think that proxies/firewalls are the reason this might be

happening? Can you share more information on what you've discovered so
far?


Let me know if I can help with something in resolving this.

Thanks,
Dimo

Thanks to everyone who gave their views and advice regarding this

that is down to the proxy settings of the problem users below. 

Has anyone else had bad experiences with proxies/firewalls and session

We are developing an web based application, and have recently been 
experiencing a number of "Session swapping" incidents. On two occasions 
a user has been navigating the system, only to "Swap" sessions with 
another user, who (we are not 100% sure) may also be viewing the site at 

the same time. 

Because a lot of the site is user-profile based, the user can tell 
straight away that they have "Swapped". The user in question returned to 

the welcome page, but another users name and details were there. This 
other user was in the same building but different floors, so they may 
have been on the same network.

For this to happen is pretty awkward, as much of the data is of a 
sensitive nature, but we feel we have done as much as we can to reduce 
the chance of this happening.

We have locked all session variables and only refer to them as local 
variables on pages that need them. see below:






When writing to a Session Variable we again use cflock, with type set to 

"Exclusive".

All Session variables are locked when created on the Application page, 
and are set to "Exclusive".

When the user logs out of the system we use the following code to kill 
all the session variables:






StructDelete(Session, "VarOne");
StructDelete(Session, "VarTwo");
StructClear(Session);



Are there known issues with session variables or is there something 
vital that we are missing? 
Is there something we should be doing on the Administrator to protect 
"session swapping"? 

For this to happen, even once is not acceptable to our client, so it is 
essential that we resolve this issue. Speed is an important issue with 
this application so using single thread sessions would not be a 
straightforward solution for us.

Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Set the session variable as a local variable at the top of the page, and

Then reference the local variable as you would the session, in the

Just a shot in the dark, but are you by any chance using the Duplicate()
function to copy complex session scoped variables to local variables?
In CF
4.5 and earlier, the Duplicate() function can cause some really strange
memory corruptions, and even reach outside the current session and
application to pick up other session scoped variables.

Hi,

Session Variables seem to be a hot topic at the minute, so I was
wondering if anyone could shed some light or give some advice on the
problem below.

We have a multiple user web based application that is all user-profile
based.

User A is  the site administrator with full access to the site.

User B is a member of company 1, and he can only see his companies data
on the site.

User C is a member of company 2, and he can only see his companies data
on the site.

What we are experiencing is a swapping of user profiles. User B is
logging in as himself and is happily navigation through the site,
gaining access to their own data, until they start to see information
which is supposed to only be relevant to User C. 

User A is sometimes logging in, and is getting restricted access to the
site because he has somehow inherited the profile of another user (who
has a lower access privilege).

Somehow the profiles are being swapped while the users are in the
system.

We are using session variables for the profiling, and access privileges,
but the somehow are getting mixed up. 


When we are calling session variables in a query on any individual page
we have declared local variables corresponding to these at the top of
the page, and referenced these throughout the rest of the page, see
below,




 

...



Select *
from table
where user_id = #Variables.chris#




We are also using StructClear() to kill the session variables when the
user logs out.

I do not know what else to do, as the problem is still persisting. Has
anyone experienced this, or can they offer any advice or direction.

RE: Certified Master ColdFusion 5 Developer

2001-09-24 Thread Chris Bohill

One of the Guys in our place took the exam recently. He had been using
the Study book as well, but found that there were a substantial number
of Questions relating to new features within CF5, which the current
study guide does not cover. 

My advice would be to print off a copy of the new CF5 features (Tags and
Functions) and learn them in conjunction with the study guide.

Cheers,

On the line of the Allaire certification, I've always wondered on one
thing.
The sample exam at forta.com has 25 questions and (that I can see) does
not
enforce a time limit.  Maybe I've just always answered within the
restrictions, tho.

How many questions are there on the exam, or is that not something that
can
be said?  I'm a volunteer examiner for the Amateur Radio community and
our
exams are set up so that there are x number of questions out of each
section
(there are 10 sections for each exam), totaling y.  Is it something like
that for the Allaire cert?

I have the study book and am planning on taking my test sometime in the
next
3-6 months, as time allows.

If these questions are out of line then I apologize ahead of time.

RE: Encrypt and Decrypt function

2001-08-30 Thread Chris Bohill


Hi all.
 
Are there any known Bugs associated with the Encrypt and Decrypt
function. We have used these functions to encrypt variables that we are
passing through as URL's. 
 
95% of the time this works fine, but sometimes we get the following
message, or similar messages. Two minutes later it will be working
again. It jsut seems to be very tempermental.
 
Has anyone had any experience of this?
Does it have anything to do with the connection to the server?
Feedback and advice would be greatly appreciated as if this cannot be
trusted to work 100% of the time, then it is not much use to us in the
application.

Someone did mention CFUSION_encrypt but have been warned against using
this as it is an unofficial function.

The error message we have been getting is:
 
An error occurred while evaluating the expression: 

CI = Decrypt(ToString(ToBinary(URL.Card_Id)),secret_key)

The value to be decrypted is not valid

OK, let me get my final word out.

I do believe it is morally wrong to publish a serial like that. I do not

believe it to be prima facie illegal.

I have been playing devils advocate a bit, and although I believe all of

my postings can be defended I am not sure that I want to defend them. I 
just want to make the point that we shouldn't try to more Catholic then 
the pope.
Which parties interests are hurt? Macromedia. What does MM do when 
somebody posts a serial on their forum? The serial gets deleted but the 
person is not banned (extrapoliting from behaviour in the past). Should 
we ban a person when MM does not do that?

Jochem

PS Michael, don't forget to remove the serial from the archives.

form fields

2001-08-13 Thread Chris Bohill

Is there any way in CF to set the input type of a form field. Basically I only want 
the user to be able to enter text and not HTML in a form field?

Cheers,

Chris Bohill.

Make sure that you set the type of the CFMail to "HTML", then you can
format the email any way you wish.
