Re: CFINCLUDE not including: FB3/Linux

[Josh Nathanson]

Thanks Sandra,

The cases all match up, and the file is definitely there.

In FB3 it will throw the "could not find included template" error if the 
file is not found, so that is not the issue.

It's really weird - it only does this skipping occasionally, and there 
doesn't seem to be any pattern to it, except that it happens after I upload 
a change to the file that is supposed to be included (but not every time I 
do this).

CFINCLUDE not including: FB3/Linux

[Josh Nathanson]

Hey all,

I am running a FuseBox 3 app on Linux.

Sometimes, when I make a change to a .cfm file and upload it, the 
application will start skipping over the cfinclude which references the 
uploaded file as though it's not even there.  No error or anything, it just 
skips right over it. When I look at the generated html code, there is just 
nothing there -- it looks like CF is not "seeing" the cfinclude.

So, say I make a change to "myFile.cfm" and upload it.
I have another file that has 
It skips over the  as though it doesn't exist.

This never happens on my local dev box which is Windows XP.  The exact same 
code will work fine.

If I rename the file that is supposed to be included, and change the name in 
the cfinclude tag, it works again.  So there must be some weird caching 
thing going on somewhere.  I cleared the template cache in cfadmin but it 
had no effect.  I have "Trusted Cache" unchecked, "Save Class Files" 
checked, and "Cache web server paths" unchecked.

Anyone seen anything like this before?

Re: Form Fields - storing unsaved values with a Page refresh

[Josh Nathanson]

How about submitting the form, and cfparam'ing all the form fields, then 
make the value of each field "#form.whatever#".  That will save any changed 
data.

You'll probably need to set up some logic to determine if you only want to 
change the ID, or you really are submitting the whole form.

Re: cfadmin 404 with apache

[Josh Nathanson]

Doug - make sure you have the following in your httpd.conf file (in the conf 
directory of your apache directory):

DirectoryIndex index.html index.shtml index.cfm

You have to have that "index.cfm" on the end -- sometimes it gets stripped 
when you do a reinstall of CF.

Don't know if that is what your issue is but it sounds like something I went 
through when I installed Apache.

Re: Why does CF remove my leading 0''s??

[Josh Nathanson]

When you are inserting/updating into your db, you would need this:

ccfield = '#form.ccfield#'

rather than
ccfield = #form.ccfield#

I think if you do the first, it should save your 0.  If you do the second, 
CF thinks it's not a string.

You're all good, except in the JDBC URL, you need the name of your actual

Re: IDE's

Getting a bit OT here, but in terms of CF help/reference, I've become a

same info as the MM/Adobe LiveDocs (scraped from there, so includes comments 
and everything), but AJAX'ed, so WAY faster and easier to get the

Re: tutorials on how to slice a design up?

[Josh Nathanson]

Just wanted to chime in that I also find Fireworks much easier to use than 
Photoshop/ImageReady when it comes to slicing for the web.  If you don't 
like the 1-pixel shims that it generates, you can change your slicing in the 
Preferences menu to produce no shims, or shims from image.  Also you can set 
the slice naming convention however you want.  I started out with FW2 and 
never looked back.

I think Macromedia was way ahead of the game in terms of web design (did 
anyone use Adobe's web design product?), and Adobe saw that which is why 
Adobe bought MM -- if you can't beat 'em, buy 'em!

Hey... not everyone here hates Dreamweaver.

It's a bit sluggish sometimes, but since I am always doing design stuff as

Re: Tricky Form validation Question (for me at least)

[Josh Nathanson]

If you are looking for client side validation, CFFORM/CFINPUT is your 
friend.  You don't need to know any javascript to use it, CF writes the 
Javascript for you.  Check the live- or quick-docs for specific usage.

If you are looking to make things a bit more fancy, you could throw an 
onChange event on your select list that would have the second fields 
disabled unless "other" was selected.  It would be something like



That would give your users the info visually that they didn't need to fill 
out the second fields if they are not "other".

You would still need to use CFFORM to do validation on the second two fields 
in the case of "other".

Hi Dave,

I should have mentioned I was using Outlook Express.  I funneled all the 
emails into an Outlook Express folder I created called "unsubscribe", then 
selected all the emails in that folder and dragged them out of Outlook 
Express into a folder on my desktop.  This automatically saved them all as

So I didn't really do any exporting as such, just drag and drop.  Not sure

Re: removing bad emails from bounced emails and db

[Josh Nathanson]

Hi Dave,

Cool, glad I could help!

The one possible gotcha will be dragging the emails out of your Tbird Inbox 
folder and into another folder.  Not sure on a Mac if it automatically 
converts them into text files as it does on Windows.

Also, dragging and dropping 10,000 emails at once might be kind of sketchy, 
so you'll probably want to break them into chunks somehow.  Although if you 
have a relatively new Mac it should be able to handle it.

Hope it works out for you.

Re: removing bad emails from bounced emails and db

[Josh Nathanson]

Dave -- I have used a tag like the activsoftware one before.  They are great 
if you are verifying a single email address as legit before sticking it in 
your db.  They actually go out and check the domain.  However, if you are 
doing 10,000 of these, I think it would be prohibitively slow.  Also, you 
already know they are bad emails since they bounced, correct?

Once you have moved the bounced emails around as I described before, the 
work is all done except running your script to parse the email address and 
remove it from your db.

I was forced into figuring this out since I was in essentially the same 
situation as you, and I didn't want to go through 300 emails and manually 
remove each email from the db.

You still might want the activsoftware tag though, those are good for 
keeping bad emails out of your db in the first place.

Re: cfdocument underline in Linux

[Josh Nathanson]

CFDocument is notoriously buggy.  I think it's because it's relatively new 
and all the kinks haven't been worked out yet.  If you go to the LiveDocs 
site (http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/part_cfm.htm) and 
do a search for the CFDocument tag, you'll see all the comments added at the 
bottom by disgruntled users of the tag.  At the bottom there is a link 
called "bug reporting".

Re: URL Parameters Ignored

[Josh Nathanson]

I got the redirect on both FF and IE, the first time I landed there.

How are you converting "fa" in the query string into "fuseaction"?  If 
you're doing an isapi or mod rewrite you might want to look there.  If 
you're not doing a rewrite, then you're experiencing the default behavior 
for Fusebox when the query string is malformed (it needs that "fuseaction" 
in the query string either directly or via rewrite.)

Re: removing bad emails from bounced emails and db

[Josh Nathanson]

Hi Dave,

Are you still actively sending out the newsletter?  If so, maybe you could 
set up your own pop box to receive the bounces (this would depend on how 
you're sending the newsletter, you need contol -- if cfmail then set the 
failto attribute), then download them via your favorite email client 
(thunderbird or whatever) to your local box overnight or something.  Then 
you copy them into a directory (on Windows they are automatically converted 
to .eml text files when you do this), then ftp them as text files up to your 
server and use cfdirectory to loop over the files, parse out the email 
addresses and update your db.  That way you don't have to worry about cfpop.

It will still take a long time to move all the files around but probably way 
faster than cfpopping each one.

I had to do something similar recently, although it was more like 300 emails 
than 10,000, it worked dandy.  I also used Ray's getEmail function to parse 
out the email addresses.

Re: replace function

[Josh Nathanson]

You need to add the parameter "All" as the scope in your Replace tag --

Replace(get_ing_img.sbclc_item, " ", "", "All")

That tells it to replace all occurrences rather than just the first one.

Re: standards with error handling

In my CFERROR tag and handler, I have it so it emails me whenever an error

tremendously helpful as I am immediately alerted to any errors in the 
application.  I highly recommend it.

PayQuake is "Powered by Authorize.net" so you would just use the

Re: Help displaying a query result

[Josh Nathanson]

As a long term solution, you might want to add a column to your products 
table called "SortOrder" or "Priority" which contains the actual order you 
want the query to output.  This way you are not stuck to any particular way 
of sorting (by id, name etc.)  You could make the "Other" category 9 or 
something suitably high so it will always be last.  Then in your admin 
section you'll want to be able to modify that column's value so you can 
change the order if necessary.

In lieu of that, I'm sure some folks on here will have a fancy way to get 
that "Other" category to come out at the end.

Hi Kevin,

Thanksyes it is external...however, it seems to reload the AS file each 
time I publish -- if I make a change to the AS file I see it reflected in 
the error message.

I'm hip to the datatypes, I tried that too but it didn't make a difference. 
Also tried putting the '{' on the second line as you did, same error.

It's kind of amusing that it shows me the '{' in the error while it says it 
is missing.

This is definitely in the WTF category.

Flash 8...trying to do some action scripting.  When I try to define a 
function, like so:

function doSomething() {
var z = 0;
}

Then I preview, I get the error:

Line 23: '{' expected
function doSomething() {

However, the curly bracket is clearly there, it even includes it in the 
error message.  There are no other functions or curly brackets in the AS 
file that would be mucking things up.

When I do "check script", I get "the script contains no errors."

What am I missing here?  Could I have gotten a bad download or something? 
Could it be that you can't define functions in the trial version?  Arg.

-- Josh

Re: CFchart scaleFrom and scaleTo

[Josh Nathanson]

Hi Ian,

I notice folks aren't much responding to your cfchart inquiries.  I've 
struggled with some of the cfchart implementations as well -- I think 
because they're fairly new, there are still some small details that don't 
function 100% as expected, plus I think not too many people are using them 
in general.  Too bad because they are awesome in many regards, I am a huge 
fan of cfchart.  I hope there are some improvements in Scorpio.

Maybe you could introduce some sort of scaling factor in your queries, say 
multiply the values by 1000, so the scaleFrom values are big enough to not 
get set to 0.  Then make a note of it in your axis labels, something like 
"values x 1000" or whatever.  At least this may get you some results.

-- Josh

Re: Flash Form stalls at PreLoad

[Josh Nathanson]

Scott - it took about 6-7 seconds to load for me.  Not bad at all.  Then I 
hit refresh and it loaded immediately.   I think you could be having issues 
from refreshing a bunch of times.  Are you developing on your local box, or 
are you using a remote server?  That will also give you different results. 
If remote you are subject to fluctuations in your connection speed, so that 
could make a difference.

There's probably an easier way but you could do

cfoutput
http://#cgi.http_host##cgi.script_name#?#cgi.query_string#
/cfoutput

to get the whole url if you need to, though I think Charlie's method using 
just the query string would work fine.  The above should work with or 
without a query string.

Re: another mySql question...

[Josh Nathanson]

AFAIK you *have* to use the JDBC driver with MySQL 4+/CF, you cannot use the 
ODBC driver at all.  It's called Connector/J I think, you have to download 
it from the MySQL website -- here's the link:

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.1.html

Re: Replying after the message

[Josh Nathanson]

Like you, I personally prefer the reply at the top, so I don't have to 
scroll down unless I need to review the OP.  Usually the subject line is 
enough to tell me what I'm reading about, so most of the time I don't need 
to review the OP, but I do always want to read the reply.  So, on the 
average, it would seem putting the reply at the top would save the most 
scrolling time.

OT: can you resolve this domain?

[Josh Nathanson]

Hey all,

We are having some dns issues where some ISP's can resolve our domain and 
some can't.  Something about nameserver records pointing to multiple 
servers.  It would be super duper if some folks could try to hit our domain, 
and then just reply to the list "yes" or "no" and what isp you are on, or if 
you use a different dns server than your isp's, whose dns server you're 
using.  For example "yes - comcast" or "no - cox".  So far ones that can't 
resolve are Speakeasy and Verizon, while it seems others can.  The domain 
is:

http://www.igigi.com

TIA!

Re: Must I Use Evaluate() Here?

[Josh Nathanson]

Yup, looping over the collection if you have a structure is more elegant 
than using evaluate.

Here's an interesting one though...I am dynamically generating queries/query 
names, is there any way to evaluate the query results dynamically without 
using evaluate?

I would do a single query and then loop qoq's for better performance but I'm 
doing some SQL that qoq's can't do.

the setter loop:



SELECT totalorders etc

This gives 6 queries named q0, q1, q7 etc.

the evaluator:

Evaluate('q' & dayspan & '.totalorders')

???

Re: Must I Use Evaluate() Here?

[Josh Nathanson]

There was a huge thread a few weeks ago on this topic...there is a 
persistent myth that Evaluate is slower than the structure methods for 
evaluating dynamic variables...however I and some others did some testing 
and found the difference is negligible.  Possibly older versions of CF had 
performance issues with Evaluate which is why it has a bad rep.

Encrypted data insert

[Josh Nathanson]

Hey all,

I am trying to insert an encrypted string into a MySQL database.  When 
inserted, the db seems to add extra characters on the end of the encrypted 
string, which makes it so that the string cannot be decrypted successfully. 
It seems to add a couple of spaces plus the dreaded box character.  Is there 
some sort of encoding issue perhaps?  Anyone run into this before?  If I use 
some combination of the encoding and algorithm attributes will it take care 
of this issue?

Yes it's a cc number, and yes I know you're not supposed to store cc 
numbers, even encrypted, but unfortunately in the real world it must be done 
sometimes.

RE: Performance problem

Back in June there was a thread called "CFFILE Performance" about this on

Subject: Performance problem

I have some code that dynamically generates CSV, TAB, and EXCEL (HTML
tables) from a query, and it is running pretty slowly.  A lot slower than
I'd like it to.  Essentially, I set a bunch of variables like START_PAGE,
END_PAGE, START_ROW, END_ROW, START_FIELD, and END_FIELD that allow me to
loop through the query and loop through the list of fields and output the
data in the appropriate format.

I added some debugging code and generating 124 rows took 19 seconds. 
Generating 1416 rows took 309 seconds.  Which means if someone wants to
generate a drop with 5,000 rows, it's gonna take a long freakin' time!

It seems like it shouldn't be that slow.  It's only writing every 100 rows
to disk (the 124 record file was 445KB).  And a couple of cflog statements
indicate that the file write takes less than a second.

Here's the query loop that outputs the rows of data.






















I suspect that it's the Evaluate() that's running slowly.

Any ideas on how to speed this code up?

Thanks!

Rick

Re: OT: Anyone else affected by the hostmysite outage?

[Josh Nathanson]

Fact is those construction guys are supposed to know about where gas lines, 
electrical, cables etc. are located before they start digging.  Out here in 
Cali a couple of years ago, a few guys died when they hit a gas line and 
caused a huge explosion.  The construction company undoubtedly has insurance 
so if I were HMS I'd nail them to the wall, they could probably get a 
settlement without even going to court.

If the cables weren't marked though, then that's somebody else's fault, not 
the construction company's.  Not sure who'd be responsible for that.

I assume you're speaking of pipe redundancy to the affected datacenter,
aren't you?  I imagine that they have bought pipe from multiple providers
but at some point those probably just about have to come in and out of the
building in the same place.  Anyone know that not to be true?

In terms of data center redundancy, they do offer that, but naturally you
have to pay for it.

I did a test that failed, which made me think the connection wasn't working.

While you may get a good answer to your question here, it would be more
appropriate for  the BlueDragon list run by New Atlanta.  You'll see a lot
of the same faces over there, with the addition of some of the New Atlanta

I can't speak to the capabilities of Coral Web Builder but I can tell you
that here at New Atlanta we have a program for standalone CFML web
applications deployed on BlueDragon.  Given the proper business case, we
will negotiate significant reductions in licensing costs and/or arrange
other compensation schemes such as monthly royalties.  If this is of
interest to you, check out the ISV segment of our BlueDragon TrueBlue
Partner Program here:

http://www.newatlanta.com/products/bluedragon/partners/isv.cfm

It sounds intriguing...question...does Coral Web Builder take the place of
Cold Fusion Server in development, too?

I'm trying to understand if by buying this script engine, I can avoid buying
Cold Fusion Server altogether.  I'm still (happily) using CF 4.5, but Coral
Web Builder would give me most of the latest functionality for only $89 with
the special they're running.

Just not quite sure where Coral Web Builder fits into the process.

RE: cfquery - single quotes become doubled

[Josh Adams]

Make sure that you understand the security implications of using queries
with .   defends you against SQL injection
attacks and should always be used with untrusted data such as user input.
If you're dynamically building your query, you can't use  with
CF.  In that case you need to make sure that you sanitize any user input to
remove characters that are potential SQL injection hazards.  Note that using
a whitelist approach is greatly preferred to using a blacklist approach.
Note also that just because you build some of your query dynamically doesn't
mean you have to build all of it dynamically--you can mix your dynamic part
in with a static part that uses .  Then so long as the dynamic
part is not built from untrusted data you won't have to do any additional
work to sanitize your data to remove characters that are potential SQL
injection hazards.

Note that with BlueDragon you CAN build a dynamic query string that contains
.  Then when you pass it to , you use the render()
function just as you're currently using the preserveSingleQuotes() function:


#render(Variables.myQueryString)#


But note that using the render() function with untrusted data opens you up
to CFML injection attacks so you'll need to sanitize for those.

RE: what if the next CF...

[Josh Adams]

Tanguy and any others who might be using CFML on WebLogic--

Take a look at BlueDragon, BEA WebLogic Edition:

http://www.bea.com/framework.jsp?CNT=index.htm&FP=/content/products/weblogic
/bluedragon/

You should find that both the installation difficulty and size of required
CFML app server resources is significantly less when deploying BlueDragon
than you're finding them to be when deploying CFMX.

We use the J2EE version of MX (equivalent to "Multiserver installation"?),
deploying in Weblogic, and i've got to say that, in my experience, it's a
little more hairy than that:

1) In Weblogic, CF has to be deployed as an exploded war / ear (as i recall,
this has something to do with needing read / write access to the
license.properties file). This means that the ear or war has to be uploaded
to each machine in the cluster, exploded, deployed from the weblogic
console, and then the license information needs to be updated separately in
each instance using the cf admin (although i think there are "cluster
friendly" serial numbers available). Contrast this with a "normal" java web
app, where you upload the war/jar/rar/ear using a web form on the weblogic
console and it is automatically deployed on all of the machines in the
cluster.

2) You have to deploy a full cf instance every time. Even if your app is a
simple five pager that doesn't need scheduled tasks,web services, or
whatever - you still need to deploy hundreds of megabytes of code, which
does affect memory usage and startup time for you app server. 

These are just our experiences in our environment, not enough to draw any
binding conclusions about the state of the product. But, here, small apps
that would be a natural for CF's feature set keep losing out to struts based
apps packaged as wars because the perception is that they are "easier to
setup and manage"... :(

RE: what if the next CF...

[Josh Adams]

Yep, CFAnywhere was a project for running standalone CFML apps using
BlueDragon.  That project was before my time here at New Atlanta so I don't
know much about it.  A bit of web searching indicates that the guys behind
it were Steve Duys and Dick Applebaum (sorry if I'm missing someone) and
that it might have fallen off their radar screen because I can't find
anything about active development of that project nor can I even find an
active website for it.

Re: Hey, does anyone have any ideas regarding a "top 40" voting system?

[Josh Nathanson]

A big part of it will be to figure out how you want people to rate the 
songs:
1) Rate each song on a scale of 1 to 10 or the like; default to no vote
2) Enter a list ranking for each song, for example 1 for their favorite, 2 
for their 2nd favorite etc.

Probably the first would be easier to handle for the person voting, that way 
they don't have to scroll around figuring out whether they like song number 
10 better than song number 30 for example.  Also they don't have to vote for 
each song, you just tabulate the average rating per vote so it's scaled 
correctly, and those songs not getting votes won't be penalized.

OT: Security Cert, transferable?

[Josh Nathanson]

Hey all,

Is is possible to transfer a security cert issued by a certifying authority 
such as GeoTrust from one host to another?  From what I can gather, it's not 
possible because the CSR and private key are specific to the host they're 
generated by, and these are used by the certifying authority to generate the 
public cert.  But, I'm not sure I have a full grasp on how it all works. 
Here's my understanding:

- Generate CSR and private key at the host
- Send private key to certifying authority
- Purchase cert, certifying authority issues public certificate based on 
private key
- I install public certificate at my host, all three components must be 
there: CSR, Private Key, Public cert

Do I have this correct or am I missing something there.

RE: Sharing Sessions between a .Net machine and a CF machine

[Josh Adams]

I'm going to write Ian directly again everyone but a point I'll make here
for all:

If you use BlueDragon and a bug in the application server causes a problem
that kills a patient (or whatever else), we at New Atlanta will answer for
that under the terms of our SLA and license agreement with you, just as any
other software vendor would.  We are an accountable and customer-responsive
organization in our 10th year of business.  We're here, we stand behind our
products, and we have no plans to go anywhere.

If so, then good--I'm here, man:  please tell me more about what you mean
when you say you can't get BlueDragon.

My company has shown no interest in the product.  We are a very restricted
environment.  Accountability is a big one that keeps us out of the open
source world.  This probably does not apply to New Atlanta and BlueDragon.
But, if a bug in the application server causes a problem that kills a
patient (ok worse case scenario, but we have had multi-million dollar blood
recalls due to human error), the company wants somebody to answer for that.

RE: IIS 6.0

IIS 6.0 has some great features like application pooling and process
recycling that can be really useful.  If you're just using it as a web
server and not as an application server you'll get more limited benefit from
those features.  But when running .NET applications (including but not

lifesavers.

Re: CF 8 feature survey

[Josh Nathanson]

Regards cfmail, I would imagine the lack of error checking has something to 
do with the balance between speed and usability.  The more error checking it 
has to do, the more it slows down.

If there was robust error checking in the context of a cfmail, people might 
be complaining that cfmail was too darn slow.  For years the knock on CF was 
"it's too heavy, too slow" (in some circles people still think that) so at 
some point I imagine the developers were leaning toward speed over 
usability, and so they sacrificed error checking in cfmail content.  Just a 
guess.

RE: String Manipulation: get filename out of path

[Josh Adams]

Use the GetFileFromPath() function.

There are a very large number of helpful CFML functions built right into the
main CFML application servers--as soon as you can find the time, read
through them a bit.

Re: Cool feature I didn't know about

[Josh Nathanson]

Yup, that's true, the db must be in good shape...can you elaborate on what 
you mean by a bad index?  How about if there is no index on the aggregated 
column, what are the consequences there?  Trying to learn more about dbs.

Also, forgot to mention that in MySQL at least, you'll need to use GROUP BY 
on a column if you are using an aggregate function such as SUM.

Also, it's nifty to do this in your SQL query and avoid the overhead in CF 
entirely, so long as your query is returning the desired rows.  In MySQL it 
would be something like


SELECT SUM(rev) AS revsum, MAX(rev) AS revmax, MIN(rev) AS revmin, 
othercolumns FROM table WHERE whereclause


Then on your cf page, #getData.revsum#, #getData.revmax#, #getData.revmin#

Re: send form elements with ajaxcfc

[Josh Nathanson]

What happens if you do document.form_name instead of 
document.form_name.elements?  That would send the form object as a structure 
I think, which you could reference in your CFC.   In your CFC you could work 
with the different kinds of form elements that would be sent.

Re: Able Commerce

[Josh Nathanson]

Able Commerce CFMX version is basically a java app with some cfscript tags 
wrapped around it.  I think that was probably the easiest way for them to 
push out a CF version of their "product".  I took a look at it (luckily they 
had a trial version) and dumped it immediately.  It sounds like you may be 
stuck with it, but let the powers that be know you could probably have 
CFWebstore up and customized (it's $300) in less time that you will be able 
to untangle the mess you're in with Able Commerce.

Re: iif: am I understanding correctly?

[Josh Nathanson]

This part of the app is not going to take heavy traffic, so the performance 
hit would be negligible.  However going forward I will always take into 
consideration the possible performance implications of iif/evaluate/DE.

Ben -- I guess I like messing around with stuff like this (iif, evaluate 
etc.) because I feel like I don't fully understand it, and if I can get it 
to work as desired, maybe I can come to a better understanding of how 
certain things in CF work in a more general sense.

Re: am I understanding correctly?

[Josh Nathanson]

Hi Jacob,

Yup, I get the part about condition true, return 2nd parameter, else return 
3rd parameter, but in this:


It seems to me that iif actually does something like this:


But it only "DE's" if the pound signs are there, so that the #i# doesn't get 
evaluated when the page is first compiled -- it "waits" until the cfloop 
starts looping.  If there are no pound signs, you have to explicitly put 
DE("") for example, otherwise you get a string index error.

Loathe -- what sort of performance hit are we talking about?  I like the 
cleanliness of doing it in one line, but if it's a big performance hit I 
guess it's not worth it.

iif: am I understanding correctly?

[Josh Nathanson]

I have some code that loops over a list of fields to cfparam some 
attributes.  The idea is, if the query (getCust) returns a record, set the 
attribute to the query.column value;  if no record, set the attribute to 
null.  After some hacking around I got it to work as desired, but I don't 
quite understand how.



 
 


What I don't get is how iif works.  It seems to do the following:
- Doesn't evaluate "getCust.#i#" when the page is compiled
- Assuming the iif conditional evaluates true, when the list is looped, 
first evaluates just the "#i#" in "getCust.#i#" to return the proper field 
name, then evaluates the variable "getCust.FirstName" (for example) to 
return the correct value.  So there is sort of a double evaluation going on.

Am I understanding iif correctly or does someone have a better explanation 
as to how it works.  The docs are kind of hard to fathom.

Re: One-to-many application on one screen

[Josh Nathanson]

Just so happens I've been tasked with creating a "web 2.0" ordering system 
at my work, that is similar to what Andy is describing -- I've got the 
basics up and running -- check it out (not tested on Safari)

http://70.87.150.164/liveorder/main.cfm

Type a single letter in the first field (anything but x or q I think), it 
will give you a list of products, select one then click "Add Product" - 
enter some quantities and you'll see the order total is calculated as you 
go.

This uses AjaxCFC, and because it's all on one page, it makes it easier to 
do the instant total calculation -- at least you don't have to worry about 
keeping track of your frames and trying to do JS across pages.

Matt I think once you got into it a bit you could figure out AJAX stuff...if 
I can do it anyone can...it's just taking that first leap...

Re: Form.fieldnames doesn't contains all form field names?

[Josh Nathanson]

OK, so that could cause the problem he's having.  He said there seem to be 
field names missing from the "form.fieldnames" list.  If he has three fields 
with the same name, there will seem to be two less names in 
"form.fieldnames" than there are fields on the submitted form.  Although, 
that would be pretty easy to diagnose, so that's probably not the issue.

Re: Form.fieldnames doesn't contains all form field names?

[Josh Nathanson]

The values of the duplicate fields would show up as a comma delimited list, 
but the fieldnames themselves?  How would that work -- "field1, field1, 
field1, field2, field3 etc."?

Re: iframe scrolling

[Josh Nathanson]

Hi Brad,

You may want to try creating a css class and applying it to your iframe, if 
you haven't already done so.  Just a simple class will do, something like:

..padder {padding: 0px;}

then do



I found this helped me when I had a similar situation.  You can play around 
with the class and see what results you get.

Re: ajaxcfc and Call back

[Josh Nathanson]

Going back to the original post, I think he was asking how to reference a 
row in the returned query using a dynamically passed variable.  James H. 
mentioned setting a global variable, which should work fine.  So:

var glob = MyFirstArg // this is the row number you want to pass to the 
returned query

DWREngine._execute(_ajaxConfig._cfscriptLocation, null, 'doQuery', id, 
MyFirstArg, doQueryResults);

doQueryResults(result) {
theDesiredRow = result[glob];
}

Re: JS Pop-up Window problems...

[Josh Nathanson]

If you are trying to work with them to resolve the problem, and they are not 
responsive, then that's the best you can do.

Formerly disruptor dave has mentioned problems with Norton creating havoc 
with Javascript, although I'm not sure if he has any specifics as to what 
exactly is blocked by Norton.

Maybe you could let your clients know in the nicest way possible that along 
with the security that Norton provides, it has a downside of disabling or 
altering some website functionality, and that they could configure their AV 
software to enable greater functionality while only minimally increasing any 
virus risk.  At least that would get them off your back for a while, and put 
the onus on them to address the issue on the client side.

Re: If the structure exists, otherwise ... consistency needed

I think you may want:

if(structKeyExists(AmazonXML.ItemLookupResponse.Items.Item.ItemAttributes,

{
Book.Author

}

How about giving that a try...

Re: FJAX - discuss amongst yourselves

[Josh Nathanson]

My understanding is that the cfajax/ajaxcfc engine will return whatever you 
return from CF, but converted into JS.  So if your CF function returns a 
string, it will be converted into a JS string.  If your CF returns a query, 
it converts that into JS array of objects which mimics a recordset.  So 
recordset[0].column in your returned JS is equivalent to the first row, 
fieldname "column" of your returned cf query.

Here's a very quick and straightforward explanation of the return types, I 
think this would apply to ajaxCFC as well since the js engine is essentially 
the same.

Re: appending two queries

[Josh Nathanson]

You haven't mentioned the average size of the CSV file you're importing.  If 
it's not too big, and you run your CF scheduled task at 2 in the morning or 
thereabouts, it should be fine to just output your query and do the db 
inserts one row at a time.

If it's such a huge file that it will chew up resources for a while, you 
might have to use one of the alternate routes others have mentioned.

Re: appending two queries

[Josh Nathanson]

Off the top of my head I'd say no, because inserting more than one row at a 
time would mess up any auto-incrementing...however maybe someone has some 
fancy way to do it if you don't have an auto-increment field set up.

Re: Can't open CF7 Administrator

[Josh Nathanson]

Congrats Rick on movin' on up in the world!  You'll be loving CF7.

Re DW - it still does some annoying things, it's not perfect, but I think 
it's a nice balance between design and coding features.  The design view 
nowadays is quite accurate, much improved over the earlier versions.  It is 
well worth the cost if you do a lot of design work.

One great feature in CF7 that's worth checking out is the 
cfchart/cfchartseries combo.  Talk about knocking out your clients...on the 
fly graphical chart generation?  Fuggedaboutit.

The downside of all this is that soon you'll find yourself wanting to 
rewrite all your old apps using CFCs.

Re: Can't open CF7 Administrator

[Josh Nathanson]

Just found the below text at the Apache site, on the page "Upgrading from 
2.0 to 2.2".  Note that it says "many modules will work", not all...so it's 
possible that mod_jrun doesn't work right with Apache 2.2.  I think if you 
go with Apache 2.0 you will be able to get CF to work fine.

-
Third Party Modules
Many third-party modules designed for version 2.0 will work unchanged with 
the the Apache HTTP Server version 2.2. But all modules must be recompiled 
before being loaded.

Re: Can't open CF7 Administrator

Rick, can you run:

Start -> All Programs -> Adobe -> CFMX7 -> Web Server Config Tool

And report back to the list what it returns.  On my box it points to the 
directory that contains the Apache httpd.conf file.

Re: Can't open CF7 Administrator

[Josh Nathanson]

Rick, one last thing to check before you give up:

Again in the httpd.conf file, look for below:


# DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
# is requested.
#
# The index.html.var file (a type-map) is used to deliver content-
# negotiated documents.  The MultiViews Option can be used for the
# same purpose, but it is much slower.
#
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.cfm


You must have that "index.cfm" on the end there after DirectoryIndex.  I 
seem to recall that doing install/uninstall can remove that, and without 
that, Apache won't look for index.cfm if you go to /CFIDE/administrator/ 
(without the filename at the end of the path).

OK, and in the line

LoadModule jrun_module "C:/CFusionMX7/runtime/lib/wsconfig/1/mod_jrun20.so"

The path is correct on your box, and the mod_jrun20.so module is in the

Also, have you restarted Apache since your last CF install?
