My guess is that this stems from the fact that it was seemingly developed with Linux in mind, with command lines and compiling binaries, if they made it a little more intuitive to people (I suspect a large number of new developers will opt for windows OS as its 'what they know'), instead of the linuxy style methods they've used, I'm sure it would be more widely adopted by less experienced developers. It reminds me of the same reason why so many people pick up the bad habit of developing using access databases, it's simply because to a beginner developer they seem more accessible than a proper DBMS, As a novice developer trying to figure out installation and configuration of MySQL or SQL Server is quite confusing, especially when you have to setup management studio or phpMyAdmin, whereas the concept of a single file which can be easily created in a nice desktop based GUI is very simple to grasp, so most novice developers will start with access, especially considering all that functionality comes 'out of the box' with m$ office. I completely agree that source control through a proper SVN approach will pay dividends, but it's just one of those concepts that isn't A) Publicised to people properly, if you mention subversion to most amateur developers they would stare blankly back at you, however, ftp is very familiar. And. B) Accessible and simple enough to implement, even with these 'one touch' style solutions that subversion released for windows users. They're just my thoughts, Another quick gripe is with some of the guides and support documents I've read in the past, they're always typical Linux user style blog posts and forum remarks, showing a total lack of sympathy toward new and learning developers, making wide sweeping statements like 'and then simply update your system environment variables, and you're done!'... amateur users won't have a clue what you're on about, even someone whom is reasonably experienced with Linux development finds that stuff confusing.

Re: 2007 Web Design Survey
Ever the optimist, eh Dave? Tell it to the guys who started Google. Seriously though, what is the American dream? To study hard, get a 'good' job, work yourself into the ground, and die an early death by heart failure before ever seeing your grandchildren born? No! We live in a free enterprise economy, something they continually fail to teach in the American educational system (and we're the only country that doesn't). This country was built upon people owning their own businesses, and the only ones who seem to understand this today or those immigrating to our country. You have to find your place. There is plenty of work for private contractors out there, and you see it roll in every day on the CF-Jobs list. And yes, those who come up with a great software package or service that can be resold, either in high volume or at premium pricing, are the ones who can really take things to new levels. I know one company that sells financial asset management and tracking software, that they originally wrote on top of CF 1, and those guys are doing just fine. The company that I work for (because I haven't hit on my great idea yet) designs websites for a very specific, targeted market. The company is good at what it does, it has laser like focus, provides terrific ROI for the client, and the guys who started the company are doing very well for themselves. Yes, web development by itself won't make your rich. Combining your talents with a business brain, defining a product or service for target markets, and building and refining something that people need, that is how you get to be a rich developer. Find a smart partner, with a business mind and an idea but no clue (mechanically) how to implement it. Or, work the mySQL route. Take a group of hot developers, write a killer open source app, build it out to the point where you have a free 'lite' version and a paid enterprise application, and sell support, maintenance, setup/installation, and training.

CFMX7 and DevNet
This has been asked once before without answer. Even though no more DevNet subscriptions are being sold there are still many of us with active subscriptions. Some people have almost a year left on their subscriptions since they purchased just prior to it's demise. One advantage to these subscriptions were updates and upgrades to various packages from MM's stable of applications, including a full working version of CFMX EE. This was not a trial or developer edition, it was a fully unencumbered edition of the server, complete with Serial No. This was not for use in a production environment (and restricted by license, of course), but was perfect for a multi-developer environment because it did not have the single IP restriction (two IP's plus localhost is nice, but not always enough). When the server renders the page it includes a nice little META tag in the code stating that the server is a DevNet edition and not for production use (which I think caused problems with my CFC webservices testing [especially for Flash integration], but that's another story). Now, I went to my vendor/reseller yesterday and had them pose the question to their contact at Macromedia. Generally using these channels will garner answers we may not typically receive on this list or by calling support. After several conversations, a lot of run around, and her contact having to speak to others at MM to try and receive a straight answer, my contact has come back stating that MM's position is that the trial download (or developer edition) is available for general download already and that is what we get. Does this seem correct to anyone else out there? I purchased a devnet subscription with certain expectations as to what I would receive for that investment. My subscription is still active (as are many other people's), and I would expect for that subscription to be fulfilled throughout the period of the subscription, regardless of the fact the MM is no longer selling subscriptions. Does anyone out there agree with me on this? Could someone from MM maybe pipe in here with an official position? Is there anybody out there listening?

Table Layout
This probably seems like an easy question, I've just never had the need before now. I have a query with x number of records. I want to dynamically create a table on my display that displays five records per row, ie (qf = queryfield): qf | spacer | qf | spacer | qf | spacer | qf | spacer | qf qf | spacer | qf | spacer | qf | spacer | qf | spacer | qf and so on... Also need to know how to fill in empty cells on the last row if my recordcount isn't divisible by 5. Can anyone point me to an article/tutorial/code snippet which could show me how to do this efficiently? TIA Cutter -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Re: Image color info?
Emmet, I don't know as I've ever seen a .gif or .jpg that was ever cmyk (only time I ever really see .png is within a Flash movie). I know when I open various ones within PS and look at the Mode under the Image menu all of them appear to be either RGB or Indexed color. I also know that, when transferring an image from PS to ImageReady, to make a web ready image, it always stops me if the image isn't already RGB. Somebody stop me if I'm wrong here. Hope some of this helps. Now if the image you are testing is not a native web format image (.tiff, .pdf, etc.), that might be a different story...

Re: For the kids
Just an FYI here. Yes, although most of us paid for our yearbooks, long long ago in a land far far away, that money was only a small fraction of the total cost of producing the yearbook (I paid $35 for my senior yearbook, and that was 17 years ago.) Most schools defray the larger costs through advertising (it was the last 20 pages or so of mine) and through fund raisers (man I got tired of those candy bars). And even though digital photography has helped to bring down some costs (like initial developing), the price of paper has actually increased quite a bit since the old days.

Re: Bluedragon Server
Ryan, In my past life, working for an ISP that was a CF house, we had several high subscriber e-newsletter clients. One technique that we employed, which greatly reduced server load and errors, was to send out these newsletters in batches of 500. Fairly easy to script, did not drag out system resources, easy to troubleshoot in an error situation, and definitely doable on BD. Cutter Ryan Jones wrote: Actually, I have another concern: mass mailing. We run a newsletter with over 3,000 subscribers. With PHP I sent out to this list on a daily basis using phpmailer class sending via smtp. Works great. I am afraid of using the cfmail tag for such mailings based on the fact that php's mail() function should NEVER be used to send out bulk mail. I may be way off base here though... maybe the cfmail tag is capable of handling thousands of addresses. But even if it is, Bluedragon itself is a concern for me here. I say this because on the Macromedia site, their feature matrix for CF notes that while CF Enterprise has High-Performance Email Delivery, the Standard Server version does not. I am assuming that the Bluedragon Server is comparable to Coldfusion MX Standard, meaning that I am also assuming it does NOT feature High-Performance Email Delivery. Am I wrong here too? On Wednesday 03 Nov 2004 13:30 pm, Ryan Jones wrote: Will Bluedragon Server really offer me everything PHP does? Yes. And more. Did you have something specific in mind ? servers take up huge amounts of memory, and tend to crash often once the traffic starts increasing. Are these stories true, or rumors?

Re: escaping character
Mark, Don't quote me on this, you'll have to double check, but in reference to item 'a' of your list I think I remember seeing a UDF function library at cflib.org for handling CSV files. If that wasn't it then I may have seen a CFC somewhere (cfczone.org maybe). There are resources out there... Cutter Mark Drew wrote: With regards to this thread, I am about to embark on doing alittle functionality to a site where people will be able to upload CSV files. There will be different CSV types for different data and I wondered if a) there are some good CSV functions out there for parsing into db or query (different delimiters, text qualifiers etc) b) if anyone has done a template to check a CSV against?

Strange WS Behavior
Since yesterday I've noticed that I can't connect to any WebServices through Flash or ColdFusion (this is from both my dev server in-house, as well as my production server at my ISP). And some of the WebServices I am trying to connect to are not of my design but from the world at large (i.e.: a service I found at xmethods for pulling the current temperature). I'm not positive, but looking at some of the error codes from the CF side it almost looks like the soap definitions reference (which we have no way of controlling that I know of) has been moved on the apache.org site. Does anyone else see this behavior or could possibly test? Cutter [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]
Flash and WS Blues
Ok, thank all of you for your book suggestions. Unfortunately Flash Remoting is not an option I have available (which makes things very interesting). I am still trying to get a grip on writing ColdFusion webservices that are accessible via Flash. I have no problems getting results our of CF itself when testing these webservices, but Flash doesn't like something and I'm not sure what it is. I have a services gateway bridging a CFC object that I have created. Pretty simple what I'm trying to start with really. My webservice init() invokes an object, initializes it by my passing an ID, which in turn calls a query to populate the object. Within my gateway (the ws) I then copy the object's properties to a simple struct, which I then return. Testing this on a CFM page shows me the necessary results. Calling the same init() method with Flash, however, gives me the following log in my output panel: 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] : Creating stub for http://192.168.44.45/seacrets04/system/com/seacrets/restaurant/detailservice.cfc?wsdl 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] WSDL: Creating WSDL object for http://192.168.44.45/seacrets04/system/com/seacrets/restaurant/detailservice.cfc?wsdl 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] XMLSchema: Registering schema namespace: http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] XMLSchema: Registering schema namespace: http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] XMLSchema: Registering schema namespace: http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] XMLSchema: Registering schema namespace: http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/ 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] XMLSchema: Registering schema namespace: http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] XMLSchema: Registering schema namespace: http://rpc.xml.coldfusion 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] WSDL: Successfully created WSDL object 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] : Created stub for http://192.168.44.45/seacrets04/system/com/seacrets/restaurant/detailservice.cfc?wsdl 11 9/1 8:0:5 [INFO] : Queing call getDetail loading 9/1 8:0:6 [INFO] WSDL: Received WSDL document from the remote service 9/1 8:0:6 [INFO] WSDL: Parsed WSDL XML [0 millis] 9/1 8:0:6 [INFO] : Faulting previously queued call getDetail undefined,Faulty WSDL format Very frustrating really.

UCase() issue
Here's my problem. I have a variable that is set from a db call. This variable is passed to a tag through an attribute. The attribute value is displayed from within a UCase() function. Pretty simple stuff. But, sometimes the value of the db call contains html code (i.e.: br / , or rsquo ;[broken to protect the message]). After the UCase() these little pieces of code don't function as they should, presumably due to the actions performed on the them by the UCase() function (i.e.: rsqou ; becomes RSQUO ;).
