Re: CFUPDATE Question/Problem - found it
Les -- Thanks for posting -- I was in the middle of migrating a CF5 app to CF7 and ran into exactly the same issue. The code works fine on CF5, but not on CF7. I added ID into the formfields argument and it fixed it. They should REALLY fix the error message that gets thrown because it was referencing fields I wasn't even using in the formfields declaration.

Strange CFMX 6.1 server issues
Hi, Given the large group of educated CFMX 6.1 users here, I was hoping someone might have some insight. In two separate cases (two different servers) after a server reboot a tried-tested-and-true CFXM6.1 server started throwing java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission ) on the main custom tags directory. The solution was to go into the CF admin, remove the custom tag directory and re-add it and all the problems go away. Neither of these boxes has received any patches recently. In addition, in one case we had to replace xalan.jar (same file size, same file date) to get XML processing working again. We have examined the machines for any hard drive damage or any other wierdness...These are both production servers with excellent uptime and performance in the past... Has anyone else encountered this issue? Any idea what is causing it?

FREE CFMX 6.1 Installation Support is Available!
Damon Cooper wrote: >Just a reminder: >http://www.macromedia.com/support/programs/self/coldfusion/installation.html >We anxiously await your installation support requests! I think it's great that MM offers free installation support, the problem is that a lot of folks run into issues right AFTER installation. The MM definitions are: Installation Macromedia defines installation as the process in which the product installation program is extracted from a CD, diskette, downloaded executable, or network drive onto a single computer's hard drive, and the setup programs is run to completion in accordance with the authorized installation instructions. A completed installation is determined by the successful first run of the Macromedia application. AND ColdFusion Server and ColdFusion Express Unable to successfully run the 'Test your ColdFusion Installation' utility (ColdFusion 5 and older only) Unable to launch the ColdFusion Administrator page. So, in many peoples' cases (ie, datasources not working) the free installation does not apply. The MM forums and this mailing list work well for general stuff. I'm impressed with the fact that MM employees are active in both the forums and in most mailing lists.

Re: CFTree and IE6 - broken and MM dont seem to be doing anything about it ..
I know the feeling... cfgrid doesn't seem to work with any JRE except 1.3. I installed the latest (1.4) thinking that I'm doing my system a favor so that IE can keep up with other sites, only to find that it breaks them instead.

cfgrid and hrefs
I have a cfgrid containing the results of a query. I want to make one of the columns a hyperlink (more specifically, each cell in a column). Here's the catch... I need to use the cell contents as a url variable for the page that I want to go to. For example, say I have a column called "cid". I want to generate something like somepage.cfm?cid=5. Is there a way to use the query's results inside the cfgridcolumn tag or something? The only thing I can think of is getting sql to concactenate my somepage.cfm?cid= and the number 5 using the AS statement (of course, I haven't tried that yet). I am wondering if there is an easier way.

CF MX, J2EE, and the directory structure...
Hi all, Anyone know what the impacts of CFMX being J2EE compliant will have on the code directory structure. I understand that the J2EE specification says some things about a directory structure for the WAR files, but how does this affect my cf pages. For instance, say I've come up with a structure that keeps everything but images and a central index.cfm page out of the webroot. It is a fusebox sort of thing... enough said. Will that code run on CFMX and still meet the J2EE specfication? Thanks for any information you can provide.

Automatic Read Locking in CF5
So that I am straight, and sure there are no bugs that will mess me up... Is it ok to use CF5's "Automatic read locking" for application/session scoped variables, provided that I manually lock any shared scope variable "cfset" statements? For your convenience (or irritation - ), I've included the text from the administrative panel: No automatic checking or locking: This is how ColdFusion worked in 4.0.1. It is the responsibility of the developer to protect variables with the CFLOCK tag. If variables are not locked, data corruption may result, which may lead to server instability. Full checking: ColdFusion automatically checks all shared variable scope access to ensure that it is properly locked. If a variable is not properly locked, an error will be thrown. Note this form of lock checking should be applied only to applications that use the SCOPE attribute of the CFLOCK tag to specify locks, not the NAME attribute. If you have specified the NAME attribute, ColdFusion will throw an error on any variable accessed within the locked block if full checking is applied on the scope of the variable. Automatic read locking: ColdFusion checks whether shared variable scope writes are locked and automatically locks shared variable scope reads. If ColdFusion encounters shared variable scope writes that are not locked, an error will be thrown. Thanks for the help! David __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

cfsavecontent
Does using cfsavecontent cause excess overhead / memory usage on the server during a page request? I suspect that it would set thisTag.generatedContent to null, which is fine for after the end tag is encounted. But the question really is "Does the start tag cause a new variable to be created, containing the contents of the wrapped code as it processes? Or is it simply copied to the memory space after the content is completely generated?". Does anyone have inside knowledge on this one? Thanks, Dave Schmidt __ Your ad could be here.

I've got the quickbooks --> my application about 90% completed, without any problem except that there are some inconsistencies with the data. Unfortunately, quality of information out of my application will only be as good as the quality of the data going into it. Also, I've seen the SDK and it doesn't look like it is complete yet. There seem to be some elements missing. QuickBooks has created a XML implementation called qbXML (or qXML), but it looks like it is still in its infancy and requires creation of com objects to work with it.

Re: client cookies - strategy question
I would just require that they have cookies on, and exclude putting cfid/cftoken in the url. I guess they could share the cfid/cftoken cookie, but you could do some ipaddress checking/monitoring to watch for people sharing cookies (not 100% accurate, of course). If too many different ip addresses (speaking of the first the octets - 234.100.130.xxx) are used for the same login in a set period of time, you could disable the account. Other considerations include the data stored in the client variables. If the only information stored is their login status, then I think that there isn't a problem sharing client vars among apps. However, if there is other information stored, you should separate them. One day, you will be coding on application 'A' and you will mistakingly use the same variable name that application 'B' is using. That could get ugly.

Re: Javascript - Remove an option from the select
Thanh,
I haven't tested this yet, but it may give you some idea...
add a function for onClick to the select tag. Pass 'this' to another function ie...
onClick="doRemove(this);"
doRemove(selectBox){
var selectedItem = selectBox.selectedIndex;
for(i = selectedIndex; i < selectBox.options.length; i++){
newvalue=selectBox.options[i+1].value;
newtext = selectBox.options[i+1].text;
selectBox.options[i].value = newvalue;
selectBox.options[i].text = newtext;
if(i=selectBox.options.length){
selectBox.options.length = selectBox.options.length - 1;
}
}
}

RE: Client Variable Scrabble
That would be very curious if that worked. As I recall, the client variable database doesn't have a field for recording the ipaddress. I'd suspect that cookies are not being set properly, or that they don't match the token being passed around in the url/forms. I forget, are you running clustered / balanced db servers, or cf servers? I know this is a dumb question, but your not trying to balance client variables across datasources, right? Multiple cf servers pointing at a single client variable storage works, but I have no idea how one could possibly use multiple db servers for client variables. Again, probably a really dumb question.

The tool records any form or url variables sent to get the page in the first place (ie, you came from template "A" to template "B" via form post.

Re: Client Variable Scrabble
AH! Now we get to a subject... I have had times where I had to scope my local variables to keep them from getting mixed with client variables, particularly when working with arrays... For example, I make an array, serialize it, stuff it into a client variable called "client.myarray" Later, I deserialize it (on a new page call), the deserialized version is called "myarray" Then I do some operations on the myarray variable (add, edit, whatever) Then I try to reserialize "myarray" and stuff it into wddx client.myarray Now, the next time I try to deserialize it, it says it is not a wddx, or it is otherwise corrupt. What happens is when you try to reserialize myarray, it is actually reserializing "client.myarray" The lesson - Always scope your local variables, especially if you are using them to interact with client vars.

OT: DevComm - Opinions wanted
Hi all, If you downloaded the devcomm tool from the macromedia exchange, and have had a chance to use it, I would appreciate your comments and suggestions. If not, and you would like to contribute, here is the link again. It's something along the lines of devnotes, but I think a bit easier to use. I'm working on an editor for it now, because I know that it needs that, at least. http://devex.macromedia.com/developer/gallery/info.cfm?ID=3C8D8DE0-40A6-11D6-83FE00508B94F85A&method=Full Thanks Much, David Schmidt __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Re: Client Variable Scrabble
Are you using clustered datasource servers, cf server, or both? Also, verify you are in fact setting the client variables. I would run a test page that sets a client variable, and then locate to another page that displays it, along with the cfid/cftoken. Do a manual lookup in the database(s) for that cfid/cftoken pair and make sure the data is there and everything matches. When troubleshooting, go one step at a time, and document everything. - Original Message - From: "Owens, Howard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 4:24 PM Subject: RE: Client Variable Scrabble > Thanks, Dave ...

I actually do this because I often have some additional processing that takes place between the query statements. An example might be where I update a structure to contain a max ID that I retrieved for one of the inserts. If there is some other problem in other logic, cftransaction won't catch it. Another thing I might do is retry something once or twice if the error happens to be a db connection timeout. Helps avoid sending the "please retry" message back to the user.

Re: preventing two or more users editing a page?
You can read descriptions of this below, but here it is...
1) create an application variable containing two elements.
a) Page being edited (cgi.script_name)
b) Person that is making the edit.
2) set the application variable to timeout at about 10 minutes.
> We want to prevent person A spending 30 minututes making
> changes, person B comes in, makes a single change (and waits),
> after person A saves, person B saves (and all changes that were
> made by person A are now lost).
Two things you can do here..
1) create an application array that holds the list of pages that are
currently being edited... Hmmm... you might need an application variable
for each page instead. (see second set of comments for the next problem).
I think each application variable will also need a "by whom" identifier so
it can restrict edit to one person.
2) create a datasource with a list of all the pages that can be edited and
place a yes/no type field in there that says when it is locked.

you can set the application variable's timeout to a small number, say 10
minutes. If the page is re-requested by the same user, then the timer gets
reset for another 10 minutes. If not, it times out, releasing the lock.

RE: Increasing wrapping length in Outlook (was: Developers Tool. Comment Engine.)
You mean, more odd than usual right? Dave (King of Odd Email) Schmidt -Original Message- From: Angel Stewart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 7:37 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE:Increasing wrapping length in Outlook (was: Developers Tool. Comment Engine.) Just set the length of wrapping in Outlook to more than 80 characters and you'll be fine when pasting URLS. Options> Mail Format>Internet Format And go to Plain text Options and increase from 76 to ...well..whatever you like. There is an upper limit though. And it does make your emails look a bit odd. -Gel __ Your ad could be here.

RE: Developers Tool. Comment Engine.
Actually, I believe the problem here is that a "-" is interpreted by an editor (even an email editor like Outlook) as a hyphen just being used to break up a set of syllables. Perhaps they should think about replacing the "-" with a "_" when creating UUID's. After all, then you could use them for directory names, urls, or whatever you wanted. Dave >>http://devex.macromedia.com/developer/gallery/info.cfm?ID=3C8D8DE0-40A6-11 D6-83FE00508B94F85A sigh, yet another good reason why people shouldn't use UUID's for ID & urls, they convey no useful information and they are also 10 times too long! __ Your ad could be here.
