RE: How do you 'blackout' a page while data being loaded?
You can use a layer. Just wrap the content you want to hide inside a layer
with visibility set to hidden
div id=ContentHolder style=visibility: hiddenMe Content/div
and put an onload action for the body tag so when the page loads it sets the
layer back to visible
script
function ShowContent() {
if(parseInt(navigator.appVersion) == 4 navigator.appName ==
Netscape) {
ContentHolder.visibility = visible;
}
else {
ContentHolder.style.visibility = visible;
}
}
/script
body onload = ShowContent();

Subject: How do you 'blackout' a page while data being loaded?
Does anyone know how to make a page that will display a lot of data can be
made to be completely black until all the information has been loaded and is
ready for display?
Some of the data in this instance is graphics being pulled from a database
and it looks not very pretty as you see them being assembled since not
everything loads at the same time.
What I'm trying to accomplish is the same effect as on the clip art web
sites, where the page goes black until the next set of selection have
downloaded.
I think there's a IE 5 page transition trick, but don't seem to be able to
locate it. Thanks in advance for any tips.

Hi All. I know that you can see the datasource names and the servers they are pointing to in cfadmin. But, is there another way to find the list of datasources and the servers they point to? Also, even in cfadmin, we can just see the datasource name, but until we don't click on the the datsource name link, we don't know the server it is pointing to. All we know is if it is a MS Access Driver datasource or a SQL Server datasource etc. So, if there is another way to look at the datasources, that would be nice. Thanks All __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

RE: Custom error (cfthrow) question
Lets say you wanted to throw a fieldmissing error use cfthrow like: cfthrow type=fieldmissing message=hey buddy fill in all the fields detail=missing field: first_name Then you can catch it along with your database error as follows: cftry !--- code here --- cfcatch type=Database NativeErrorCode =22001 !--- do database error processing here --- /cfcatch cfcatch type=fieldmissing !--- do missing field error processing here --- /cfcatch /cftry -Original Message- From: Owens, Howard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 3:03 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Custom error (cfthrow) question I've used CFTRY/CFCATCH before.

RE: image mapping question
What it looks like you need is a webserver mapping (aka virtual directory) your webserver not cf should make to the path so for example if i setup a mapping (virtual directory in the iis world) in my webserver as follows: /imageroot/ maps to c:\imagesdir\ then when i call http://www.myserver.com/imageroot/ the webserver will point to the c:\imagesdir\ the cfadmin mappings are only useful for the coldfusion engine to help find templates to cfinclude or cfmodule you can contact me if you have additional questions, -Fred -Original Message- From: Ray Bujarski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2002 5:52 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: image mapping question How do I insert an image using the actual path similar to img src=c:\imagesdir\image.jpg with unix file system?

RE: Looping through list of variables
I believe your problem is the variable scope your using.
You'll need to reference it as
Form.chooseequip#counter#
Not
EquipmentForm.chooseequip#counter#
Also your sending the data into your database unchecked.
I'd recommend evaluating and verifying all the data you need into a
structure then loop over the structure and insert the data into the
database. At the very least put a simple val function around your evaluate:
INSERT INTO tblEquipEntry
VALUES
(tblequipentry_seq.nextval,1000,
Val(Evaluate(Form.chooseequip counter)),
Val(Evaluate(Form.hours counter))
)
Try that,

Hey all.
I have a form with variables nammed chooseequip1,

Of course I need to reference them. I tried using a CFLOOP but I am
running into problems with referenceing the fields with evaluate.

/CFLOOP
Any ideas on the correct way to reference those fieldvalues?
