RE: form validation utilizing database field types/sizes/etc

2005-09-14 Thread Dave.Phillips
There may be another way, but I know you can get field types, etc. from the 
ALL_TAB_COLUMNS table.

SELECT column_name,data_length,data_type,nullable 
FROM ALL_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'MYTABLE'

You could use that information to build some validation based on the values 
returned.

Subject: form validation utilizing database field types/sizes/etc


I was wondering if there is a way to pull column information from oracle 
to help with form validation.  It would be really nice if I could set up 
my database and then have coldfusion read the setup of my tables and 
perform its form validation based on that.

I did some research on this and it seems like SQL server supports a 
standard format using INFORMATION_SCHEMA to return the column types and 
sizes and what not.  Is there some way to pull similar information from 
oracle so I can use that for form validation purposes?

Thanks,
Mike

This will properly set the cookies to expire when the browser is closed.  
That's the default when an EXPIRES attribute is not included in CFCOOKIE.  
There are a number of ways to do this, but your code, as written here, should 
work and not cause any problem.

Expiring time of cookies for session management

2005-09-12 Thread Dave.Phillips
Hi,

I'm trying to clarify the expiration time for the Cookie.CFID and 
Cookie.CFTOKEN cookies created when a new session starts.  Is it the length of 
the time that is specified in the sessionmanagement attribute of the 
cfapplication tag?  If so, is this documented anywhere?

I did find some documentation (on livedocs) on how to make the cookies 
automatically expire when the browser is closed, but I need to know what is 
actually happening when those cookies are created by CF and I need some 
documentation to back it up if at all possible.

Thanks,

Dave

However, if the page you're trying to open into a new window has too much data 
to fit into a 'popup' style div block and still maintain some aesthetic 
integrity, then it may not be an option.  

Dave

Actually, I just recently used this technique combined with named anchors and 
the overflow: scroll property to create a nice div/CSS based popup that 
contained a fair amount a data in it.  I used a nested div so that the headers 
of the data stay visible above the scrolling cells.  

Now, if the data was so massive that it would effect the download time, then I 
would look for a different solution.

If the pixel size (I assume that's what the numbers are) is always a

RE: New window in cflocation

2005-09-09 Thread Dave.Phillips
That's a good point Rick.

Robert, if this is a problem, you could always create an absolutely positioned 
DIV block, hide it, and then when you're ready to show the information display 
it with a higher z-index (so it overlays your existing page).  This type of 
'pop up' is not blocked by most pop up blockers because it's not actually a 
window.  However, if the page you're trying to open into a new window has too 
much data to fit into a 'popup' style div block and still maintain some 
aesthetic integrity, then it may not be an option.  Just wanted to mention it 
also.

RE: Custom Tag question

2005-09-09 Thread Dave.Phillips
Could the problem be that this custom tag is being imported with CFIMPORT on 
the page, and then it's being called?  When you CFIMPORT would it then define 
the UDF and then try again when you call the particular custom tag?

Hi,

I have a custom tag.  It needs to have access to a UDF that I've created.  The 
UDF is stored in a file called application_udfs.cfm which is CFINCLUDED in the 
application.cfm file of my application. Here's my problem:

1.  If I run the page as is, my custom tag fails saying that the 'Variable 
ForceLinkTargetBlank Is Undefined'.  

2.  If I do a  in my custom tag to include that application_udfs.cfm 
file (so it can see the UDF), I get this error:

Routines cannot be declared more than once. 
The routine "ForceLinkTargetBlank" has been declared twice in different 
templates. 

I'm stumped.  I know this is something simple, but I guess it being a Friday 
afternoon it's escaping me.  Any ideas on how I can debug this thing and figure 
out what's going on?

RE: CFLocation LF and 7

2005-09-09 Thread Dave.Phillips
The only thing I can think of is add some code to check for a LF after you've 
encrypted, and if so, change it to another character, or truncate it.  You'd 
have to pass some sort of additional parameter to the calling page so that 
before you Decrypt, you add the LF back so that the Decryption works properly.

Subject: CFLocation LF and 7


Hi,

We have an app that runs fine on good old MX6.1.  Basically a
confirmation email is sent out to a user with a click here to update
your details.

This link has an ID that's encrypted with CF's Encrypt, the result of
this is then URLEncoded.

All works fine until we upgraded the server to 7.  When they click the
link, their details are updated and a confirmation page is displayed,
the problem we are having is that we are passing the encoded var into
a CFLocation tag, the ID in this case after encoding is:

%24%28%20%3FGUP%20%20%0A

Which for the eagle eyed people contains a LF, although as you can
see, its really a %0A the problem we are experiencing is that
CFLocation is throwing the following error:

 Failed to perform redirection.
ColdFusion was unable to perform the CFLOCATION operation. Location
URL cannot contain (carriage return) CR or (line feed) LF characters

Anyone know of a work around, without changing the encrypt / decrypt
functions as the site has been live for a while?


TIA

Jedi

Is that "undocumented"?  the "default.xml" doesn't seem to have anything 
in it relating to line thickness.

Are you talking about the WCP files in the charting/gallery/* directories?

Better yet:

There is also a file attribute if you want to specify the file, but if you just 
want it to be the same filename as the one you GET, then leave it off (like I 
did above).  Otherwise, specify the file attribute with the new filename.

Obviously, you can replace the path above with any path available to your

Try this. It should take care of all instances you run across. If the raget
attribute is in fact in a valid link, it either ends with a space or a
closing bracket >


http://mysite.com"; target="_blank">1
http://mysite.com"; target="_self" title="something">2
http://mysite.com";>3
http://mysite.com";>4
http://mysite.com"; target='_nada'>5




function targetlinks(str, targ)
{
  str = rereplacenocase(str,'( target=.*?)([ |>])',"\2","ALL");
  str = replacenocase(thetext, "

#targetlinks(thetext, "_blank")#

The first rereplace strips out all target attributes. The second puts the
attribute back with the value you pass to the function.

It seems to work with everything I've thrown at it thus far.

First of all, thanks!  In my case, we are on MX 6.1 here, so the basic approach

If you require the input to be valid xml, then you can also use an XSL
transformation:




Or















_blank








It's more code yes, but if you're requiring XML content, this will be
more bullet-proof than the regular expression solution. On CF7 you can
put the XSL sheet in a separate template and just use the absolute
path to the file in the XMLTransform function, i.e.:

If you wanted a true decimal field (not money) then you would specify column

DECIMAL(5,3)

Where 5 is how many total digits you want (excluding the decimal) and 3 is how 
many digits you want to the RIGHT of the decimal.

Could by chance is the decimal datatype in the SP be the problem?  I'm going
to check into that, but I don't quite know how to fix the problem if it is.

It basically looks like:


StoredProc TableId as int, Price as decimal, etc

Is there a way to define the decimal datatype for Price so it has a scale of
2?

RE: Sql Server DECIMAL datatype

2005-09-01 Thread Dave.Phillips
Your problem is Scale 0.  Check out this page:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/tsqlref/ts_da-db_8rc5.asp

"Precision is the number of digits in a number. Scale is the number of digits 
to the right of the decimal point in a number. For example, the number 123.45 
has a precision of 5 and a scale of 2."

If you have a precision of 18 and a scale of 0, that means you are allowed 18 
digits total, but zero can be to the right of the decimal point, which would 
force your values to be stored as integers.

Change the data type to a scale of 2 or 4 or however many digits you want to 
the right of the decimal point, and adjust your precision if necessary to allow 
the correct total number of digits.  So, for example, if you want a maximum of 
say nine million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine 
dollars and ninety-nine cents, you would do it like this:

999.99  = precision 9, scale 2

I have a strange problem using the decimal datatype in MS SQL

have a stored procedure that should store a decimal number into the table.
However, when the number is stored, it is rounded as if it were an integer.
I can't figure out what's going on with it.  Does anybody have any pointers
on how to use this datatype?  BTW, I don't want to change this datatype to
anything else just yet.

Okay... Well... I was commenting specifically on the example where an
ID column is fetched to filter the results being returned in the 2nd
query, but I guess you're right, if you used another method like
Oracle's MINUS clause to limit the records in the 2nd query, then you
would need another method of getting the total number of records...
however... I'm less inclined to think that approach would be faster
because then you need all your where clause filters both in the data
query and again in the count() query. My suspicion is that the
execution plan for the query that uses just the primary key column
(which you wouldn't have in this case) would be much more efficient
than the execution plan for a query containing multiple references to
non-primary columns in the where clause... I could be wrong, it's
happened before. :)

RE: Paging through records

2005-08-31 Thread Dave.Phillips
I think it applies because the whole discussion was about what's a 'faster' way 
to do this...

My point is that the second query is getting the data to display on the page in 
question (say records 51 - 100), so why does the first query need to return all 
rows of the data?  If the first query is purely to get a count (so you know 
what to divide by to split up your pages) then it seems to me to be unnecessary 
to return the additional data that won't even be accessed.  The second query 
(of the 2 query approach) gets the actual data to display and (in this 
scenario) would only contain 50 records.  

The example I gave would of course need to have a WHERE clause limiting to 
whatever the particular criteria is for this page display...it wasn't just to 
get an arbitrary count of all the records IN ADDITION to the 2 queries in your 
approach.

The whole point was to say that using Count(ID) is faster than using Count(*) 
or SELECT ID (getting all rows).

Well I think the count() example is sort of outside of the scope of
what was being described... The specific question (as I understood it)
was whether a pair of queries could be faster for presenting a sub-set
of records in a list page -- the count() query isn't part of the task
of fetching and presenting those records, so it's sort of moot. And in
that scenario, if you use the 2-query approach, you can use
query1.recordcount to get the total number of records (and divide that
to get the number of pages), so that eliminates the need to perform a
separate count() query if you want to display total # of available
records on the page.

RE: Paging through records

2005-08-31 Thread Dave.Phillips
I agree with Isaac.  The first query could even be:


select count(id) as TheCount 


Wouldn't this make the first query even faster as it's not returning x records, 
it's only returning ONE record and then you can reference TotalCount.TheCount 
instead of .recordcount the other way?  It seems this would make it even more 
efficient.

Yes, it's true that if your table is small, that this could end up taking more 
time, but the whole idea is to handle tables that are large, not small, so this 
to me seems the most efficient.

That's gonna depend on the indexing... the first query returns only
the primary key column (which cuts down on time to execute) and the
2nd query has only the one primary key column filter in the where
clause, which is presumably faster than searching on other columns (at
least, it definately will be if the db's indexing is done properly).
So it's possible the 2 query approach in this case could actually be
faster... Consider that in the alternative single-query approach,
you're returning x number of columns on y number of records that won't
be used, which will create drag just like the additional query does --
but this 2 query approach also has advantages which reduce the time to
complete each query, so... the end result will vary.

RE: Oracle SQL alternative for YesNoFormat() ?

2005-08-31 Thread Dave.Phillips
Bobby,

This doesn't work for me because the values in the database are in a numeric 
column and stored as 1 or 0.  I need the query to return 'yes' or 'no'.  The 
query results are used for a CFINDEX, so the only option I can think of at this 
point is to build a NEW query and transform those values as I loop through the 
original query recordset.  This will add alot of overhead to the process though.

I can't do a PL/SQL function either, so that's not an option.

Anyone else have any other ideas?

Dave

I haven't messed with Oracle much but if you don't find a better solution,
you can hack something up that returns the length of the value minus 2 which
will return 1 for yes and 0 for no

This should do it...

select len(YesNoField)-2 as YesOrNo
from MyTable

if the values in that field are only yes or no, you will get 1 for yes and 0
for no

it's a hack job I know but it works

The ideal solution would be to change the field values but I know that isn't
always feasible with a client-supplied database.

Here's an example:

I always get a connection timeout failure, even if I increase the timeout to

Actually, if you're using SQL server, this might work:

select count(*) from (put all your SQL in here without the count(), just the

that might do it.

If have a query that returns a 24 hour breakdown of orders by the hour on a
monthly basis. (see below).
As you can see, Hour 5 & 6 are missing because there are no values to
return. What would be the easiest way to add Hour 5 and Hour 6 to the
query's recordset with a corresponding value of zero for each hour? The
trick is, from month to month, the hours that have no values might change.
Any idee-ers? Thanks, Che.

RE: SQL Count Question...

2005-08-26 Thread Dave.Phillips
I don't think you can use DISTINCT with an aggregate function like count().  
Also, you didn't indicate anywhere in this e-mail which database server you're 
using.  

Are you doing the query just to get the count, or is it for some other purpose 
as well.  There's nothing wrong with using #queryname.recordcount#.  You could 
do the count() without the DISTINCT, but that may give you more than you are 
looking for.  

Maybe you could tell us the goal you're trying to accomplish and there might be 
another way to approach it.  Be sure to include your SQL database type and 
version.  Also, providing your error message is very helpful.

The trickler built into my CMS defaults to 5 messages every 5 seconds. That 
is a burst of 5. A wait of 5 seconds then another burst of 5. Counting the 
trip to the client and back to run it you're really looking at about 7 
seconds, which is good because... This is optimal for a CF server that is 
set to flush the mail spool every 5 seconds. Since the mail comes in at a 
roughly slower rate you never back up mail in the spooler.

If you don't tune the CF Admin setting (or optimize to whatever its set to 
by your mail host) then you aren't getting max bang for your buck. If, for 
example, CF is set to flush every 30 seconds then at my 5/5 default CF is 
going to pump out 30 messages from your mailer each time (assuming its not 
too busy to get everything out... you never know on a shared server). Even 
so I would still use the 5/5 because it provides continual feedback to the 
client side. Plus I've found over time that taking it in nibbles is better 
than bites. 

The tutorial for building one of these is on my web site. If you look it 
over, try and use the one that introduces failover, as the original is a 
real mess if it gets interrupted.

For lists in excess of 10k maybe you need to take bites. What I have done is 
run a fairly complex method of automatically running large mailings directly 
in a browser window on the server, where nobody cares if the browser window 
is open for 2 hours. I think I have that written up at the site as well.

Never think that this method is efficient. Its way over on the opposite 
side. But the mail gets delivered. The only way you can get tripped up is if 
you have a rotten list,with genuinely bad addresses. Your mail server will 
slowly build up retries on your garbage addresses until you do get noticed. 
So be sure to pay attention to and scrub your bounces.

Using cf to loop and build the text file just wont work, it takes forever
and often crashes.

Someone mentioned a way todo it with php, by invoking a function that
converts the record set in ram to a text file and then zips and send back.
But we are stuck doing it on box with mx 6.0.

Looked at having sql generate the file, but trying to avoid mapping drives

A lot of the stuff up above is good advice. Especially the stuff about 
proper mx records.
 I have been able to completely eliminate the issue of AOL, MSN Yahoo etc. 
thinking they see spam coming from my server by throttling all mail that 
goes out of the box. No clients are allowed to send email blasts. They all 
run it thru a trickler app and as a result skate safely under the radar of 
every frequency filter out there to date.
 I have some clients -- professional associations -- whose memberships are 
just freakin' loaded with AOL, Hotmail etc. They do mailings in the 5-10,000 
piece range with nothing coming back due to a temp block (stuff like "could 
not deliver because user does not exist" when you know it does in fact exist 
and later, on retry, the mail goes thru). Same goes for a commercial vendor 
sending out daily alert-type emails showing product in inventory matching a 
requested profile. Those are 10-100k html emails... No problems.

Dan,

Go to your command prompt and type this

nslookup

at the nslookup prompt:

>set type=ptr
>xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Where xxx's represent your IP address you want to check for a reverse lookup.  
The results will show whether or not your IP address has a reverse lookup.  If 
it doesn't, contact your DNS provider and request them to add it.  Preferably 
it will resolve to the domain from which you are sending e-mail, but at the 
very least, it should resolve to something.

RE: Lowering spam profile of CF generated emails

2005-08-24 Thread Dave.Phillips
Well, in my experience, getting mail into the inbox can be different depending 
on the service of the receiver of the e-mail.

AOL:
Sign your server up for whitelisting at http://postmaster.aol.com.  If you're 
on a shared server, you can't do this, though, so you'd need to be on a 
dedicated server.  Once whitelisted, I've not had trouble getting AOL mail 
through for several months now.

MSN & Hotmail:
Good luck.  I've never had any success getting MSN to offer a whitelisting.  
Evidently, www.bondedsender.com has some deal with them, but it can be pricy if 
you get ANY spam complaints at all (even false spam complaints).

Yahoo:
You can apply for 'delivery to the inbox' instead of in the bulk mail folder, 
but I've never been successful in getting approved for this.  Do some searching 
in their help section for the application.  They 'monitor' your mail for a few 
days and then tell you what they think about it.  Bottom line is if you have a 
large amount of mail coming out of your server to @yahoo.com addresses, you're 
giong to end up in the bulk mail folder (unless the receiver has added you to 
their safe sender list.

Other mail servers:

You can use the free tool at:

http://spamcheck.sitesell.com/

To check and see how many mail server filters generally will receive your 
content.  This will help eliminate some blocking, but ultimately, you will end 
up in junk mail & bulk mail folders if you're sending a large quantity of mail 
from your server.

** One thing to keep in mind...most mail servers & providers base whether your 
mail is classified as bulk mail based on the quantity of mail coming from your 
SERVER, not your DOMAIN.  This is important to understand as if you're on a 
shared server, or if you share your server with others, you might get classifed 
as bulk because of their activities.

This is by no means an exhaustive list, just what I can come up with from 
memory.  Hope it helps.  I'm sure some others will have some comments here for 
you too.

Oh, one more thing...plain text e-mails are most always more likely to be 
delivered than HTML e-mails.  I send all my e-commerce 'receipt' e-mails in 
plain text and then a 'welcome' e-mail in HTML nicely formatted separately.

Subject: Re: CFINDEX - how to add/update a single record in an existing
collection?


I ended up taking Dave's query for a single record approach because it
simplified a number of things.  Because of the nature of the app, I
update some of the data one column at a time, but it still needs to be
indexed immediately.  I have a CFC with an updateCollection method
that I just pass a collection name and record ID.

Followup question.  What contributes to the degradation of verity
collections?  Will updating single records in a collection kill verity
search performance?  What strategy should I take with
repairing/optimizing collections...scheduled task to do it hourly, or
would just once a day suffice?

Thanks for the help,

Pete

RE: DESPERATE!!! Any way to embed SWF within CFDOCUMENT (PREVIOUSLY CFDOCUMENT ERROR)

2005-08-23 Thread Dave.Phillips
Andy,

I did some googling and I found this for you:

http://flirt.sourceforge.net/example.html

First paragraph on this page says "Here I'll step through the test.c example 
code that's in the root of the Flirt source. It's a simple command-line app 
that takes an SWF file name for an argument, runs it for 100 frames, and then 
renders out to a PNG file. As usual, we need to include a header:"

You may have to write something in another language utilizing something like 
this Flirt software and then access it as a COM object or with CFEXECUTE or 
something like that.  

I don't know if this will do what you want to or not, but I thought it might 
lead you in the right direction anyway.

Also, is the SWF file you are trying to convert to an image a dynamically 
created SWF file or is it static? If it's dynamically created (like using 
CFFORM) then I don't think you're going to find a way to do what you want to 
do. If it's static, you may be able to use some type of utility (like the 
above) to convert it.

Hopefully someone else on this last has already encountered your issue and has 
a workaround.  I wish you the best!  I know how frustrating stuff like this can 
be!

Can anybody help me, I am at breaking point here. I know now that Live Docs 
state that CFDOCUMENT does not support embedding SWF files as it cannot render 
them but I am desperately hoping that someone may have found a clever way to 
get way around this or anybody know how to output a SWF as an image file on the 
fly (I am not very savvy with Flash!). I am really desperate for something 
because if I cannot find a way to make this happen then I will have to abandon 
all the work that I have done over the last 3 weeks (flash forms, cfdocument, 
etc), revert back to CFMX and start writing again! The CFDOCUMENT was the main 
thing that got me to upgrade and now I can't use it! I could just scream!!! 
Anybody, please?

Ahh... well that would explain why it's not documented. :) I stand by
my original hypothesis that it performs a thread.sleep() but probably
can only be executed by certain cf internal processes, such as some of
the cf tags which exist as compiled java (instead of cfml tags in the
special directory).

Although... given that error message, it probably actually accepts a
thread as its argument and waits for that thread to complete whatever
task its been given. Which would be redundant in cfml anyway, since
your cfml code already must wait for the task to complete before
continuing if you were to spawn a java thread and task it with
something. Or such is my limited understanding...

RE: cfmail optional attributes

2005-08-23 Thread Dave.Phillips
If that doesn't work, maybe someone knows a way to get the default mail server 
value from the server using Java?  If so, then you could do this:




In my apps, I've always known what my default mail server was, and had code 
like this, but I didn't need to use the Java because my default server was 
static.  If you know the default server already, then you could do it this way, 
but I was assuming that you might not know it (for example if you were in a 
shared environment).

So, in a sense, the java method actually makes the thread go to sleep for x 
milliseconds and stop processing, and then when the time is up, it starts 
processing again?  And doing it the CF way it's processing constantly...

Because when you do it in cf, you are forcing it to execute (do math)
however long you do the function for.  When you are calling the java
function, it calls some method that wakes it up after a certain time, but
does not use any cpu..

I would expect CreateObject("java","java.lang.Thread").sleep(x);

Try this:


#getTickCount()#

#getTickCount()#


Granted, if it accepts an argument in seconds (instead of ms), then
you'd be looking at a wait of a little over 16 minutes.

RE: Is the a wait function in ColdFusion MX 6.1?

2005-08-22 Thread Dave.Phillips
Out of curiousity, why does this affect the CPU any different than the JAVA 
thread?  The process still has to wait the same amount of time, doesn't it?  
Why call another external process?  Wouldn't that be more overhead?

I don't know much about Java, so my questions may sound stupid, but I think an 
explanation would be helpful to those on the list who also don't understand why 
this is bad.  It's not an endless loop and it's controlled by the input.  You 
could add a max amount in there if you wanted to avoid wait time's longer than 
a specified time.

Ouch, don't do that.  This will spike your CPU, looping frantically

The java thread sleep method is much better.

I don't know about your GoogleBot question, but as for when the session starts, 
I believe there's a default onSessionStart method you can put in an

created if it exists.

GoogleBot is crawling our website and creating a new session with each
page request.  I realize that this is because GoogleBot does not use
cookies to track the session variables.

I have J2EE Session Enabled and use jsession as the sessionID.

Can I use URLSessionFormat to keep GoogleBot in the same session?

Can I redirect GoogleBot to a dedicate GoogleBot Session.  For
example, if GoogleBot makes a page request and I have a Session
already created by the GoogleBot, can I redirect the current request
to the other session?

When are session created during the process.  Before Application.cfm,
after application.cfm.  Before the cfapplication tag?  Or after the
cfapplication tag?

How does URLSessionFormat know if a client has cookies enabled or not?
 Is there something in the header that lets URLSessionFormat know?

Thanks,
Troy

RE: webservices and XML

2005-08-22 Thread Dave.Phillips
Bryan,

Check your docs under the cffunction tab to see what the output attribute 
actually does.  I think you may have it confused with what  does.

Here's a quote from  docs page for output attribute:

Specifies under which conditions the function can generate HTML output.

yes: The entire function body is processed as if it were within a cfoutput tag. 
Variables names surrounded by number signs (#) are automatically replaced with 
their values. 
no: The function is processed as if it were within a cfsilent tag 
If you do not specify this attribute, the function body is processed as 
standard CFML. Any variables must be in cfoutput tags.

Subject: webservices and XML


Hey All,

OK...from Livedocs at MM:

The following list defines the requirements for how to create web services
for publication: 

1) The value of the access attribute of the cffunction tag must be remote. 
2) The cffunction tag must include the returnType attribute to specify a
return type. 
3) The output attribute of the cffunction tag must be set to No because
ColdFusion converts all output to XML to return it to the consumer. 
4) The attribute setting required="false" for the cfargument tag is ignored.
ColdFusion considers all parameters as required.


Number 3 above does not appear to be true (or I'm missing something).

For arguments sake let's assume the WS method has output="no" and 
returntype="query"...

Will the query returned by the WS be converted to XML? because it doesn't seem 
to be.

I'm manually converting the query to XML now and it's SLOW when larger 
recordsets are returned.

TIA for any insight

RE: CFINDEX - how to add/update a single record in an existing collection?

2005-08-22 Thread Dave.Phillips
Yes, I agree.  I only used this as an example since he said he already had his 
query info for one record.  At least that was my understanding of his dilemma.

The main point, Pete, that Ray & I are both trying to make is that your CFINDEX 
can be exactly the same whether your query has returned 1 record or 1,000.  You 
don't need to add all the pound signs, etc., just simply identify the proper 
fields in the right places and that's it.  The number of records returned in 
the query is irrelevant.

If we haven't answered your question, please let us know!

Dave, I'm pretty sure, in MX7 at least, you don't need to make a one

have the one record query, that would work.

RE: CFINDEX - how to add/update a single record in an existing collection?

2005-08-19 Thread Dave.Phillips
Pete,

Actually, you would just execute a CFQUERY that would return that one record, 
and as long as your KEY is the same, issue your cfindex just like you would if 
you were indexing a query with 1,000 records.  


select [your fields] 
from [your table]
where [your criteria to return just the new record]



That's all you need to do.  Now, you could also build the query dynamically if 
you don't want to re-query your databse, using the query functions.

HTH,

Dave

Subject: CFINDEX - how to add/update a single record in an existing
collection?


Sometimes, no, make that usually, Macromedia's documentation for CF
just barely scratches the surface.

I have an existing collection that is populated from a query.  The
data returned from this query gets updated quite often.  In order to
allow accurate searches, I would like to add (for new records) or
update a record in a collection from query data...actually, I'll be
passing the data in via a CFC...

Is there a way to do this?  Here is the original tag call to populate
the collection:



So, in order to do this, would I do something like:



(note that I omitted the query attribute).  Would this update just a
single record in the coll_datacards collection?

Thanks,

Pete

PS Is it time to create an "Undocumented CF" web site?  If there's
enough interest and enough content, I'm willing to start this as a
project...I just know that between things like cfcollection (and
related tags), cfdocument, cfchart, and more that there's a lot of
stuff that Macromedia doesn't cover in their docs.

Have you found a limit?  I would think it would depend mostly upon how much RAM 
you have on you server.  The more RAM you have, the larger the file you could 
read in with CFFILE.

Maybe someone else can expound more on this? Now you've got me curious.

I've tried to do a little digging, but with little success.  Im looking for the 
Max Size of a file that the CFFILE tag (Or could be the variable) can handle.  
We regularily parse large files (larger than 10mb some upwards around 100mb).  
Currently we have been splitting the file into sections using UNIX, however 
this is tedious, and is a poor fix for the problem.  Any info you could provide 
would probably help, or just point me towards the documentation.

To return all in an explicit search, you can use *

You can also just make your type dynamic, and if the search term is *,

YACI - Yet another CFSEARCH issue

2005-08-19 Thread Dave.Phillips
Well, although my last problems were figured out, I'm having another issue now. 
 

My understanding from the docs is that a 'simple' type search has implicit STEM 
and MANY operators added to it.  So, if I'm doing a simple search and I just 
put in * as my criteria, I get back ALL records in the index.  That works just 
fine.

Now, I have an explicit cfsearch, but I want the 'text' part of my search to 
function just like the simple parti.e., if I put in * I want to get all 
records that match that criteria...



With this CFSEARCH tag, If I type in an actual word in my search form, and it 
is contained in the index and at least one of my equations is true, it returns 
it properly.  BUT, if I just type in a *, or even a partial word and * like 
mik* or cat* it returns ZERO results.  If I can get it to return results with 
an actual word, but not with a *, that doesn't make any sense.  

Any thoughts or ideas?  What am I missing?

Thanks,

Dave

RE: cfindex/cfsearch help with dates

2005-08-19 Thread Dave.Phillips
Ray,

PROBLEM SOLVED  Here's how I ended up doing it:

First, I had to store my 'modifiedDate' value in custom1 with an identifier 
(since I was already using custom1 and custom2 for other values), so it looks 
like this:

custom1= "identifier|mm/dd/|"

Then, before my CFSEARCH, I created 7 variables with the last 7 days in them 
respectively formatted like this:

Day0 = |08/19/2005|
Day1 = |08/18/2005|
Day2 = |08/17/2005|
and so on...

Then, my 

And finally...it works.. I need no Query of Queries anymore and I avoided 
creating two separate collections.

The keys to this solution were twofold.  One, you have to use 'cf_' prefixed to 
your cfsearch results field (i.e. cf_custom1, cf_title) to search it.  I found 
this FINALLY in the docs, and of course the other was figuring out how to store 
the date in a field that was already occupied, and by using the pipes, I can 
properly identify the date now.

Ray's right, and actually, what I have found is that the difference (xDiff) is

does that, but it does.  I had this same problem the other day and once I 
resolved the duplicate key issue, it went away and my query counts matched.

CFMX7 dramatically improved the Verity support within CFMX. One of the
new features is categories. So consider the follow example - you index
your content daily. For content where the data is older than 7 days,
you assign the category Old. For content within 7 days, you assign the
category New.

On the CFSEARCH side, you can then filter based on category=New, or
Old, or don't worry about it.

If you go to my blog, you can download the powerpoint and watch the
preso I did yesterday on CFMX7 and Verity. (It's a recorded Breeze

Can you elaborate on that idea?  We do index daily.  I'm unclear on how you're 
using the word 'category' but very interested.  One thing I don't want to do is 
add another index based on another query (that limits records to those modified

Another option you may want to consider. If your date searching can be
a bit "loose", you can use categories, with names like May2005,
April2005, etc. This would allow you to match eocuments wihin a month.
Or even CategoryTree=2005,Category=2004. You couldn't do everything
_before_ a day, but, it's an option.

Also - I'd reconsider your QofQ. We use it for a large site and it
works very quickly. We do an initial CFSEARCH and then 20 QofQs to
filter out various parts of the results.

I was wondering that.  It's a bit unclear, but that sort of makes sense.  
However, it's too bad it can't be done with a custom index.  I know I could put 
a date in the custom1 or custom2 field, but I'm trying to avoid having a QofQ 
on the client side, just for performance sake.  I was trying to figure out if 
there is a way to do it with the criteria options in the cfsearch tag, but so 
far, no luck.  At this stage, I will probably build a QofQ to do it unless 
someone else comes up with something.

cfindex/cfsearch help with dates

2005-08-18 Thread Dave.Phillips
Hi,

I found this quote in the docs for MX 6.1 under 'composing search expressions':

"if a document field named DATE is defined, you can search for documents dated 
prior to and including December 31, 1999 by entering DATE <= 12-31-99 in your 
search." 

Now, if this is true, theoretically I could return a query with a date I want 
to search by, and when I do my cfindex, I would specify it like this?



Then, when I search on this index, i could say search for:  "stuff AND DATE >= 
01-01-05"   This would return only the documents which have a 'date' greater 
than Jan. 1 of this year AND have the word 'stuff' in them.

Now, here's my problem...it seems that Oracle won't allow me to alias a column 
in the table I'm getting the query from as 'DATE'.  So, I tried this with the 
actual date field, call it 'DateField' and did my index like this:



So, then I tried the query but used DateField >= instead of DATE >= and it 
still doesn't work.

So now I'm beginning to wonder if there is there a way to query a collection by 
a date field.  If so, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Dave

Yikes!  Someone can edit a record directly in the database?  That's scary...

But an SP still has to be triggered by something.  And that is really what
he is saying, because my example cannot be accomplished just by a SP, unless
you implicitly execute that SP every time. Which means your  still relying
on the ColdFusion code to do so.

RE: Triggers (was @@Identity returns excessive records)

2005-08-18 Thread Dave.Phillips
I think what Neil is trying to say is that a Trigger would be unnecessary if 
the resulting events that need to be executed were programmed in the original 
SP.  I tend to agree with NeilsomewhatI wouldn't say Triggers are 
useless, but it seems to me that if proper planning and design are in place, 
when you want a certain event to occur when something else happens that you 
would program it intentionally with the original event.

Here's a question on the subject, as I'm not an expert in SQL triggers and SP's 
by any meansif you execute an SP from CFQUERY does the connection to the 
database from CF release immediately, even while the SP continues running, or 
does CF stay connected?  If CF stays connected for the entire time an SP is 
running, then THAT would definitely give a very good reason to use 
triggersYou set up your primary event in your SP, execute it from CF, and 
then CF can continue processing doing whatever it needs to do while the trigger 
takes over.

Thoughts?  Comments?  Corrections? :-)

Neil,

You are totally avoiding answering the question.

You have stated that an SP can do everything a trigger can do, and you have
stated that an SP can automatically be execute when a certain event occurs
just like a trigger.

So for the 3rd time, please show me how.

RE: @@Identity returns excessive records

2005-08-17 Thread Dave.Phillips
I haven't used this method in a long time because now I use UUID()s as my 
unique record identifier and since I create the UUID before I do the Insert, I 
have access to it.  

I don't have the syntax handy, but are you using the SET NOCOUNT ON and SET 
NOCOUNT OFF?  That might be it.

FWIW, I have read some research that @@IDENTITY will not always provide you 
with the proper ID, especially in multi-user environments (which the web most 
certainly is) and leaves the possibility of returning the wrong IDENTITY id.  
This is why I switched to using UUID's.

Hi,

I'm on Oracle 9i.  I have a query (call it AllResults) that is returning a 
column (call it MyColumn) that's value looks like this:

'identifier|5,2,3,4,45,7' 

Each row may have a different 'identifier' and a different quantity of numbers.

Basically, there are two values in this column.  identifier & numberlist 
separated by a pipe

Now, I need to build a query of queries that queries this existing recordset 
and only returns the records which has a number that I'm comparing against.  I 
know I can do this in CF by looping over the recordset, but I'm trying to avoid 
that (for processing time sake).  

Here's the pseudo code of what I'm trying to do:

(idnumber is a variable in my code and will be ONE of the numbers listed in the 
numberlist)

select * from AllResults WHERE
idnumber is found in the list of numbers located in the MyColumn field

I only want the records that have 'idnumber' IN the list of numbers

I'm sure this can be done with some SQL code and since I'm not a SQL guru, let 
alone Oracle, any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

RE: cfindex issue? (Solved - Possible bug?)

2005-08-16 Thread Dave.Phillips
Well, I determined that in my case below, I had 48 records that were duplicate 
keys.  By making all my keys unique, I ended up with the desired result.

My concern, and wondering about whether there is a potential bug in CFINDEX or 
not, is why did CF drop the last 48 records of the original query instead of 
dropping the 48 duplicate keys?  The 48 duplicates were included in my CFSEARCH 
results, so they were added to the index.

I found another instance of this happening to another developer as well.

Has anyone else experienced these results, and anyone know why in the world 
CFINDEX would act this way and is it intentional and, if so, why?

Thanks,
