RE: Storing Credit Cards

2001-10-04 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Jeff

 I would also be interested in knowing if anyone is aware of a third party
clearing house or payment processor that can provide a very secure credit
card storage service.

Check out WorldPay's FuturePay service:

http://www.worldpay.com/sg/products_services/product_selection/billing.shtml

See it in action *and* make a donation to protect the world's rainforests
and the people who live in them :-)

http://www.rainforestfoundationuk.org/tFundraising.htm

The idea is that your site never even sees the credit card details. The
customer gets sent to WorldPay's site to perform the credit card
authorisation, then they get sent back to a designated page on your site
(you can customise the appearance of the WorldPay page to make it look like
part of your site.) They only have to do this once and WorldPay remember the
details for use in future months.

You pay a slice of every transaction to WorldPay, but you might decide it's
worth it for the peace of mind and convenience.

If you're using CF5, there is a UDF at CFLib.org that does this.

RE: break

2001-09-27 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Aidan

It's based on 'C' syntax, which itself isn't very far removed
from machine code - the switch statement is really just a
glorified set of goto statements.

If you don't put the break in, it drops through to the next case.

But it can be useful sometimes if you want to do some processing
for case A and then some processing for case A or B - though
making use of that results in very un-maintainable code.

It's certainly a rich source of bugs, whatever language you're using.

Is there any good reason why CFSCRIPT requires the inclusion of a break;

It took me a while after looking at Advanced CFWACK 4 (where break; doesn't

just left me thinking... why?

RE: SQL question about JOIN

2001-09-19 Thread DeVoil, Nick

There is no reason to, unless you need to make sure that you will
get all the relevant records from one or more of the tables
regardless of whether they have corresponding records in the
other tables. That's what an outer join is for.

If you put a row into JOBINFO with no corresponding rows in
the ACTIVITYLOG, the 2 queries will return different data.

If that's an impossible situation, then the second query is fine.

Chris,

This isn't what you want to hear, but really your database design
needs changing so that each keyword is in a separate row.

If that's not an option, you could read the list of keywords

if you do it for every entry in a large database.

RE: Database query question

2001-08-17 Thread DeVoil, Nick

What do you mean by output a single row?

You mean sth like

FoodName MoreFoodInfo Nutrient1  Value   Nutrient2 Value.
  -  -   - -
Name more stuff   ENERGY-SOA 191.574 PROT  FAT 

where the number of columns is controlled by the number of rows
in NIP_Nutrient for that food?

If so, you can't do it in one SQL statement.

Presumably you are doing this in CF though,
in which case you can just join the tables:

SELECT F.col1, F.col2 N.value, N.nutrient
FROM   NIP_FOOD F, NIP_Nutrient N
WHERE  F.FOOD_ID = N.FOOD_ID

and then use CFML to build up the display row by looping
through the 7 dataset rows returned.

Subject: Database query question


I've been given a massive (130Mb) Access database with two tables.

NIP_FOOD and NIP_Nutrient.

NIP_FOOD contains a unique ID field which is Alphanumeric (eg:
01A10014).
NIP_Nutrient contains a field called FOOD_ID which is seven seperate
rows of the same value as ID (but not linked). eg:

FOOD_ID VALUE   NUTRIENT
01A10014191.574 ENERGY-SOA
01A100140.4 PROT
01A100140   FAT

01A100142.492   CHO-SOA
01A100140   TOTSUG
01A1001410  NA-SOA

What would be the way to retrieve all of the fields from both tables
using the value (eg: 01A10014) but have it output a single row?

It will stay in Access until I can get IT to port it to SQL Server or
Oracle.

cfusion_dbconnections_flush() - is it safe?

2001-07-20 Thread DeVoil, Nick

I'm using cfset cfusion_dbconnections_flush() to unlock
a database.

Access 2000, NT4.

The function does successfully delete the .ldb file
and the .mdb file can then be re-opened OK.

But afterwards, when I open the .mdb file using Access itself,
on exiting Access I get an error message

There was a problem sending the command to the program.

So I'm worried that cfusion_dbconnections_flush() is doing
something nasty to the database.

Does anyone know if this function is safe or not?

Thanks

RE: XML db

2001-07-16 Thread DeVoil, Nick

I'd put XML documents into 2 categories -

1. Data-driven - containing a serialized version of some highly
structured business data that might have come out of/be going
into a relational DB, but is put in an XML form for standardized
transport purposes;

2. Text-driven - where the data is much less structured and
the emphasis is more on the markup aspect. Used in content
management systems, for example.

Seems to me that apps based on the latter sort of XML doc can
benefit enormously from a native XML DBMS. You could envisage
building an entire content management system without using an
RDBMS at all (In fact I've done it with no DBMS of any
description, just using XML text files  CF, but I wouldn't
recommend it!)

But the first sort - more traditional apps - can really
benefit more from all the advantages that a traditional RDBMS
gives you. Maybe I'm wrong  the XML technology is more mature
than I think... Surely you will always get better performance
from a traditional RDBMS for highly structured data.

I believe that the market leading native XML DB is
Software AG's Tamino?

Chad

It depends what DBMS you're using.

If it's Access, look here

http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq/#answer77

Otherwise I believe the following queries are mostly correct:

Ingres:SELECT relname FROM iirelation
Oracle:SELECT table_name FROM user_tables
PostgreSQL:SELECT relname FROM pg_class
MS SQL Server: SELECT name FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U'
Informix:  SELECT tabname FROM systables WHERE tabtype = 'T'
Sybase SQL Server: SELECT name FROM sysobjects WHERE type = 'U'

MySQL: Can't be done using simple SQL commands.

Aidan, maybe you could add these to the FAQ?

WOT: Flash questions

2001-07-05 Thread DeVoil, Nick

I've asked this on a couple of Flash lists but I guess the question
is so badly framed that no-one knows what I'm on about.

But I know you guys are patient  some of you are pretty good
with Flash so I'll try here.

I am designing a database-driven web app which has 2 particular features:

- some of the content is defined in an XML format where some
elements are chunks of raw HTML, some are more abstract elements
which have to be turned into HTML by a JSP. The idea is that the JSP
goes through the XML sequentially and throws the HTML onto the page,
generating it where necessary.

- some of the XML contains text items which have to be put on the page
in such a way that they can be dragged  dropped into various text boxes
etc, and then the contents submitted to the server in an HTML form.

This is fine in an HTML context. I can envisage writing a generic JSP
to create the page out of any XML file that's in the right format.

Now the customer says to me, how about building the user interface not
in DHTML but in Flash?

I'm not competent in Flash so I don't know if this is feasible or not.
Specifically:

- is it possible to have a Flash movie which presents a stream of generic
text, not known until runtime, in the same sort of way that a browser
processes HTML?

- do objects all have to be positioned individually on the screen, or can
they flow onto it as in HTML?

- Is it possible to have a Flash movie that builds a drag-and-drop
feature out of generic text or images which are not known until runtime?

- Is it possible for the Flash movie not only to send information back to
the
server, but send back unpredictable information? I mean, in a CF page
you can easily have processing which puts an unpredictable number of form
fields onto the page, plus the associated processing - can you do that
if you're using Flash?

Do I need Generator to do any of this? Does WDDX help?

Would really appreciate any insight here.

Nick

RE: Dynamic variable names

Can you have dynamic variable names in CF?e.g in an action page could
you have something like - 

cfset thelist = 
cfloop from=1 to=3 index=id
cfset thevalue = Evaluate(form.fieldnum  #id#)
cfset thelist = ListAppend(thelist, thevalue)
/cfloop

where there are form fileds fieldnum1, fieldnum2, and fieldnum3.

I have tried this but it doesn't work.I thought you might be able to use
the Evaluate function in this way as this works (from the Forta book):

cfset x = Array
cfset EVALUATE(p =   x  New(1))

This creates a new array stored in the variable p

RE: SQL Server 7 book(s) recommendation

2001-05-15 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Aidan,

I'm afraid this is a negative one as well, but on
the strength of Amazon ratings I bought a very expensive
M$ Press book called something like SQL Server 7.0
Database Implementation Kit which did include a
3-month eval of the DBMS but was very superficial.

The only use I've found for it is that my 3-year-old
daughter (4 tomorrow now I come to think of it)
keeps some treasured belongings inside the box cover.

For MS-SQL reference purposes I use the Books Online,
which really is excellent, and/or the M$ web site.

I believe the O'Reilly SQL book does a good job of
explaining different SQL dialects  a lot of people
here have recommnded Joe Celko's SQL for Smarties and
also one by Ben in the past.. haven't looked at any
of them though.

RE: [Object Oriented CFML]

2001-05-09 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Can you call a JSP page as an object, pass parameters to it,
have its variables and such encapsulated, etc? 

You can't do this with a JSP per se, but you can call Java
classes from within a JSP.

You can do it with a servlet. A servlet is a Java class.

A JSP interpreter such as JRun turns JSP's into servlets.
You can write servlets directly without the JSP stage.

JRun also provides the servlet engine, i.e. the other Java
classes you need to actually run the servlet.

Neo, on the other hand, also turns CFML templates into
Java servlets... which I think is pretty interesting.

I took it to mean ERROR returned by CFERROR, CFFTP returned by CFFTP

As opposed to FILE returned by CFFILE, CFHTTP.

Of course, you're right that Attribute and Caller variables need prefixing

2001-04-26 Thread DeVoil, Nick

 as for normalizing; with a globally designed DB - it is not necessary; the
logic is ported into the App.

Well, sorry to bore people with this now slightly OT thread,
but there's the rub - by storing all the data in one table
you have thrown away all the inherent business-modelling
capability of a relational database and made far *more*
work for the developers, not less. Not only that,
but you lose the ability of the DB design to serve as 
a central authoritative design document describing the
enterprise rules. Not to mention performance and the fact that
the database is now practically un-optimisable by the DBMS
and un-tunable by the DBA.

I worked on a client-server project exactly 10 years ago
where the database designer tried the same approach.
It didn't work. Obviously times have changed but..
the upside needs to be pretty good to outweigh all that.

RE: Storing structures in a DB

The question isn't as simple as all that -
the subject line says DB but the body says array.

In both cases the answer is yes, but the details
depend on what exactly you're trying to do.

One way of storing a structure in a DB is to put
it in a WDDX packet  put that in a large text
field. Otherwise of course you can have a table
with one column for each field in the struct.

Subject: RE: Storing structures in a DB


I would normally use columns in a database and not worry about structures
but, from the looks of the spec that I have got there is more of a
complicated structure.


basically it is a company information section for our intranet.

Within the Slow_stream table there will be coluimns for
Company info, financial info and sales office info 

The later column has to contain;

Direct Sales:
location, size
VARs
location, Size, other products
International Presense
Key Markets
Market Share

I was thinking about using a structure for the direct sales and VAR sections
so I can store the extra details.


Is it as simple creating a structure then inserting it into a DB field.
When I want to display the data for a user can I query the database then
access the structure as I normal ?

RE: Access/SQL/hosting question

2001-04-24 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Vernon,

That is too much traffic to expect Access to handle.

IMO you will possibbly get more performance improvement from
going to SQL Server than going to a dedicated server.

The amount of Access database activity done by other users
on the server you're using shouldn't affect you that badly.

The dedicated DB server sounds like overkill.

Subject: Access/SQL/hosting question



I'd appreciate any and all advice and comments on the following situation.

I work for a non-profit membership association (translation, not a huge 
budget, but web stuff is getting to an important means of communication 
with the membership.)  We've been running our web site on a shared server 
set up, but for a variety of reasons are pretty sure that we want to move 
to a dedicated server.

Currently we are serving 20-40,000 pages on a good day, around half involve 
database queries, and there are a couple of hundred credit card 
transactions per day also. Most of our traffic is concentrated during 
standard business hours.

So, here is the question, one consultant has recommended that we not only 
move to a dedicated server, but also upsize the databases to SQL, and get a 
dedicated database server as well. This seems like a fairly drastic leap, 
and I'm wondering if our relatively low volume really demands this? I know 
Access gets a lot of flack, but is it reasonable to expect it to perform 
better on a dedicated server?

Any recommendations for what the most cost effective solution for us would 
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Vernon Horn

RE: Oracle Auto-Increment

2001-04-02 Thread DeVoil, Nick

WIth Oracle you can set up a "sequence" which gives you
the same kind of functionality.

eg CREATE SEQUENCE mytab_seq ON mytab INCREMENT BY 1;

then in your insert statement you can say 

INSERT INTO mytab()
VALUES (mytabseq.nextval, )

Hi guys,

Our client has requested that we do our website in several languages...
however I am unsure how to go about it regarding the database structure

I thought that the user could select their language which would set a
session variable

ie session.language = english

So now that I have gotten this far, how should I set the database up so that
my existing queries dont have to be totally rewritten...

Should I different tables for each language?
Or should I have one table, but different language columns?
Or totally different databases?

The info will be identical across all the different sites.. so
maintaining the structure is imperative (ie newsID 40 always has to be the
same across all languages).

I am really stuck here, and have no idea on the best way to go, and
appreciate your help and any tips you can provide.

kind regards

chad jackson

Sorry about the OT question, but am stumped as to why this won't work.
Trying
to use JavaScript to add the numbers in form fields together, instead of
adding them, it is appending them to each other.  Here is my code:

script language="JavaScript"
function AddToBasket()
{
OrderBooks.TotalQty.value = 0
OrderBooks.TotalQty.value = eval(OrderBooks.SW.value +
OrderBooks.SP.value)
}
/script

It is taking the value of OrderBooks.SP.value and apending it to
OrderBooks.SW.value instead of adding them.  For example,
OrderBooks.SW.value
= 3 and OrderBooks.SP.value = 5, I am getting 35 instead of 8.  Have tried
it
without the eval() in there and have set each form value equal to a
javascript
variable also with no change in results.

No, you shouldn't need to change that at all.

You're just delivering content to a different client.

There are some examples somewhere on the Allaire site.

The only reason you would need to change anything
on the server is if the limitations of that client
make your existing design unworkable. For example,
too much text, pretty much any graphics etc.

Hi,

Could anybody tell me how is ColdFusion doing in UK? Is it not in demand

Actually, I came here in UK from India on 29th Jan., 2001 as a Software
Consultant through NovaSoft Info. Tech. (Europe) Ltd.
(http://www.novasoftinfo.co.uk and http://www.novasoftinfo.com). They hire
Software Professionals from India and place them here on Contract basis. My
main skills are ColdFusion. I am having 2 yrs exp. in ColdFusion with SQL,
Access, JavaScript, HTML, and Dreamweaver etc. I have developed 10 sites
using ColdFusion. 

Now almost two months have been completed and I am still on Bench. Not only
myself, there are other 4 ColdFusion professionals they are also on bench.
NovaSoft is not able to place anybody. What they are saying is that there is
no market for ColdFusion in UK now and the situation will remain same for
next 5-6 months atleast. I have already wasted almost 2 months for the
process for coming to UK and 2 months on bench and if the situation is going
to remain for next 5-6 months, it is going to spoil my career very badly.
Moreover, company might take some harsh decisions also. I am in great
dilemma now-a-days. 

Could you please tell me the status of ColdFusion in UK or could anybody
guide me overcoming this problem? Any kind of help/suggestion is welcome. 

Thanks and Regards,
Rajesh Kumar

 Let me point out a very good reason NOT to use CF for XML.
 When you get XML, you have to compare it to your DTD and
 then parse it to get the data out. 

Pedantic point: you only have to look at the DTD if you need
to validate the XML. No need to otherwise.

As regards parsers, I've used MSXML with CF quite a bit and
it works fine.

This is right, but you don't have to use a different

As I understand it XML is independent of the "end product".  i.e If you
build a site using XML it is not "tied in" to HTML in that you could view it

Although I gues your XML structure would have to be quite simple to

RE: curly queries

2001-03-07 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Toby

Something like this will get you n rows per poem where n
is the number of options, filtering out the hidden ones.
Assuming each poem must have options - otherwise you need
an outer join.

select p.poem_id, p.poem_title, d.option_name, o.setting
from poem p, poem_option o, poem_option_def d
where p.poem_id = o.poem_id
and d.option_id = o.option_id
and poem_id in
(select p.poem_id from poem p, poem_option o, poem_option_def d
where p.poem_id = o.poem_id
and d.option_id = o.option_id
and d.option_name = 'hidden'
and d.setting = 'off')

You could use cfoutput group="poem_id" in CF
to "group" the output, but actually you want everything
on one line, so I think you'll have to do something
along the lines of

cfset current_id = ""
cfoutput query=...
  cfif poem_id is not current_id
!--- New poem, so new line  poem id/title---
br
#poem_id# #poem_title#
  cfif
!--- option details ---
#option_name#=#setting#
  current_id = #poem_id#
/cfoutput

I can't think of a way of doing headers like your example,
if you dont want to hardcode the options.

None of this tested I'm afraid ;-)

you can see my problem (hopefully).  To start with I'm getting each
poem_title repeated once for every option that exists.  In the query I need
to select all this information for only the poems whose "hidden" option has
a setting of "off", then I need to output the title only once obviously, at
that time check each of it's options.

This doesn't quite work because while what I NEED is this:

one record:
-
poem_id  |   poem_title   |   hidden   |   hilite  |   spellcheck   |
-
   01"my poem"  "off""on" "on"


instead, I have this:

one record:
-
poem_id  |   poem_title   |   option_name   |   setting |
-
01   "my poem"  "hidden" "off"
01   "my poem"  "spellcheck" "on"
01   "my poem"  "hilite" "on"


as you can see this makes it difficult to do a cfif hilite is "on" img
src="hiliter.gif" /cfif

can anyone help me with this please?  i know it's going to be a combination
of writing the correct query and grouping the output - it's just eluding me
utterly.  I can't / don't want to hardcode each option into the queries etc,
because obivously the number and names of options will evnetually grow...
help - anyone?

RE: SQL Help, Please

2001-03-07 Thread DeVoil, Nick

If they leave at 22:00 and get back at 20:00 the next day,
and you are only storing the *time*, not the date and time,
then they are indeed getting back 2 hours earlier than they
left.

Philip,
Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, that didn't do the trick. The query
returns a -2. I've put in test records to this point, so I know that the
return should be 22.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Scott

OT: Converting Microsoft Publisher/QuarkXpress to PDF

2001-03-07 Thread DeVoil, Nick

Kind of related to the Word/Powerpoint thread...

Does anyone have any idea how to convert documents
in the above 2 formats to PDF? Not automatically
using CF, but manually on a PC. I'm being asked
 have no clue about this stuff.

I believe there is a plugin for QuarkXpress that does this?
As for MS Publisher, I have no idea but I bet it's nasty...

Thanks

Nick

RE: Another SQL statement question...

how about

It's off-topic, but I know people here are experienced with SQL, so...

I am using SQL 7.0 and CF 4.5.  I am trying to combine two ntext field
columns to one field in a query, but I have a problem when one of the fields
contains 'NULL' value.  I am trying:

SELECT TextID, TextColumn1 + TextColumn2 AS AllTextColumns
FROM Table1

But when either TextColumn1 or TextColumn2 has the 'NULL' value, the
resulting column, AllTextColumns, shows as empty even if the other column
has a text string in it.  Is there a way to prevent this?

Use isNULL()

isNULL(TextColumn1,'')

Subject: Multiple Query Problem


To anyone who can help,

I am trying to output a list of records on a page, also nested in this list
are individually populated
drop down boxes which has values determined by the parent record. But before
I get to this stage I can't get the query
syntax right.

I can't quite get the query syntax right, below is what I have tried but I
only seem to get 1 variant and no more.
All the records are there but can't seem to output them. I have also tried
cfx_dumpquery tag but still can't get any more than
one row out of get_variants.

cfquery name="get_prod" datasource="#dsnvar#" dbtype="#dsntype#"
SELECT * FROM prod
WHERE cat_id = '1' AND active = '1'
ORDER BY prod_priority
/cfquery

cfquery name="get_variants" datasource="#dsnvar#" dbtype="#dsntype#"
Select *
From variants
WHERE prod_id = #get_prod.prod_id#
/cfquery

Am probably being stuuupid due to sleep depravation.

If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Cheers

Chris.

RE: DHTML

2001-03-05 Thread DeVoil, Nick

OK, then just be aware that DHTML that works on N4 doesn't
work on N6 or IE5 without tweaking.

As the others have said, there's no CF problem.
