RE: interesting problem with function isNumeric and NaN
There are some more interesting problems with isNumeric and lsIsNumeric, they can sometimes return NO even when we use a numeric value. We've encountered with this issue several times however this is not reproducable. Sometimes works but sometimes does not work. This problem usually occurs when we check a session or a recordset field. We're sure the value is a number but isNumeric/lsIsNumeric returns NO. When this problem occurs, for instance when isNumeric(session.userId) returns NO, lsIsNumeric(session.userId) usually returns YES. However we've encountered that lsIsNumeric() sometimes returns NO too. The problem exists in CF 6.x and CF 7.

Put as many functions in the CFC as you need to address the needs of that concept, but keep an eye on creep. Usually (but not always) a large number of functions in a CFC indicates that you may have set the concept too broadly and should consider multiple CFCs. There isn't a specific number (or range of numbers or size) that this happens at and it's different every time. A CFC might start overreach its scope and indicate the need for a new CFC after the 30th function, the 5th or the 100th. As long as the scope of the CFC is well-defined and well-bordered don't worry about the number of functions in it. That being said I personally DO sometimes worry about this. I tend to possibly make multiple CFCs were multiple ones might not be needed, but are still logical. For example, I've got a CFC-based security system made up of about a dozen cooperating CFCs. The main Security.cfc contains most of the system-level stuff (the authentication caches, the instantiated collections, etc). It has, I think, about 15 functions in it. However there are at least two sets of functions that may have gone in there... but didn't. One was installation and deinstallation routines for the system (which create database tables, Verity collections, etc). These functions tended to be very long and only used once. So I created a SecurityConfiguration.cfc that JUST handles these tasks. Some people don't like this idea (they think an application should be self-contained) and that's a valid opinion. The point is consistency however: I set my boundaries for logical reasons and maintained that reasoning throughout the development of the system (and other systems). Essentially there has to be some systemic, logical reason for the splits. Saying there's too many functions is NOT such a reason and you should never (I think) consider splitting up a logically consistent CFC for that reason.

RE: CF vs ASP.NET! GET YOUR FRESH POPCORRRRN!!
There are no professional CF hosting in Turkey :( So we always need to buy CF to host our projects which should be hosted at different geographical locations. We're using similar approach for most projects, because we generally solve all of the problems of the projects (providing hosting, maintenance, security, content contribution solutions for years). Sometimes our customers wants to host the site their own servers which requires a separate ColdFusion license. These conditions force us to shift other technologies, so maybe I cannot see the future of CF properly due to these conditions. Its popularity is different in Turkey. Finally, we have some plans for next year to setup a small CF hosting company in Turkey :) (Any suggestions to setup a CF hosting company are welcome) This will help us to continue with CF.

For most small to medium projects I'm not sure why you would ever want to buy CF anyway - hosting seems the way to. Since the development servers are free you can create and publish a CF application for very little money just as you would anything else.

RE: cfc - cffunction question
2) You said you want to use site wide variables in a CFC. There is a better way of doing this then cfinclude. Your CFC could have a method, init(), that lets you pass these values in. Another way is to not use a cfinclude for your global vars, but another CFC. I typically make a cfc called Application, or Settings. This CFC will have one methoid, getSettings(). My Application.cfm file will use this method to set up the site wide variables in the Application scope. My other CFCs will call this method to set the values in the Variables scope. I recommend to use a variables.settings structure instead of getSettings(). Because CF usually tends to use scopes/structures to make the development easy (i think). You should set the settings structure in the constructor method (the init()) method like the following: cfcomponent cffunction name=init access=public returntype=any cfargument name=settings type=struct required=yes/ cfset variables.settings = arguments.settings / cfreturn this / /cffunction /cfcomponent If you only need one or two specific settings in your component; you should code your constructor like the following: cfcomponent cffunction name=init access=public returntype=any cfargument name=dsn type=string required=yes/ cfset variables.dsn = arguments.dsn / cfreturn this / /cffunction /cfcomponent This is more easy for especially traditional CFers instead of extra inheritance or methods which cause to lead unfamiliared codes; IMHO. Additionally you can add your global settings structure and its context in CodeHints XML file in DWMX to make faster coding.

I teach classes in OOAD with CFCs. But while those are specific to CFCs, there's a great deal of info on OO on the web and in a great number of books. It can be confusing assimilating it all, which is one reason I so strongly encourage CFers to begin the process of learning OO now rather than wait until a need is apparent.

I'm using Windows Task Manager to see CPU and memory using and determine there is a problem with CFMX. Some pages in our site causes performance problems. How can see request and/or page flow *instantly* to determine which page causes this problem? Unfortunately, I don't know any practical way to do this other than by running a load test. Within your load test script, you'd typically measure the timing for each individual page request. Once you've run an actual test that provides a relatively large aggregation of those request timings, you can identify slow pages, then examine those pages in depth by breaking them into sections, then using GetTickCount to determine which sections take longer.

I have had this problem since installing CFMX. Rumor has it that updater 2 fixed it, but my situation hasn't improved. If I remember correctly, setting 'setdomaincookies' to false is supposed to resolve the issue (although that was not my experience). It seems to be a subversive bug, because it only happens on one of my apps (there are two running on that server), and it doesn't happen at all on my other CFMX server. The CF administrator (which uses cookies/client variables) works fine on both. I've spent hours examining the code and I can't find a difference between the apps that work, and the app that doesn't, so I don't know whats up. I eventually wrote my own client tracking system using URL variables along with some anti-hijacking code for the busted app. Works pretty well, and had the nice benefit of allowing me to take care of WDDX serializing my client variables behind the scenes, so I can transparently store complex data without having to think about it. barneyb -Original Message- From: Murat Demirci [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2003 7:22 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFMX client variables problem !!!

RE: Form validation
It's known that hackers are trying to post malformed information to the server gaining an idea through the forms in a site. So form validation is an important issue. I know the FusionScript a little, it is a rich tool. But I'm not sure that it's security, has no bug. It doesn't guarantee this, does it? -Original Message- From: Bruce Sorge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 23, 2003 5:45 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Form validation What do you mean?

RE: Form validation
Maybe combining the FusionScript or the qForms with some server-side codes is the best way? You know client-side solutions isn't secure, they are easily breakable. Any more suggestions? -Original Message- From: Murat Demirci [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 23, 2003 6:50 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Form validation I prefer to start validation at server, and than do Javascript equivalent. But I need reliable UDFs or Custom Tags, OR I can code all of them, but I need a guide that shows me what is a valid e-mail address and what is not. Client-side solutions are user friendly but not powerful. And security is the most important point for my membership module. If there isn't a powerful server-side solution to validate forms, converting client-side Javascript codes to CF codes will be most preferable way for me. -Original Message- From: S. Isaac Dealey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 23, 2003 6:26 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Form validation FusionScript is designed to allow you to use reasonably simple ColdFusion tags (custom tags) to create client-side JavaScript code essentially using the same syntax you use for the rest of your ColdFusion code. I haven't used it personally because of it's use of custom tags and my still trying to support CF 5. ( Without cfimport you have to have all your templates in the same directory or you have to put the FusionScript templates in the custom tags directory which usually isn't feasable if you have shared hosting. ) FusionScript does some other things (the ActiveServer component is really impressive -- it's not actually a server, just a means of communicating with the CF Server without refreshing a page), but as I understood it, that was the original thrust of it. If you're just looking to validate your data, you can of course, always use server-side script on the action page. I frequently place the action-page within the same template and have it post back to itself, perform validation at the top with a try-catch statement then populate the form with form variables. cfif isdefined(form.membername) cftry cfif not len(trim(form.membername)) cfthrow type=mycustomtype message=Please enter your name. /cfif cfif not isemail(form.memberemail) cfthrow type=mycustomtype message=Please enter a valid email address. /cfif ...etc... cfquery ... INSERT INTO MEMBERS ... /cfquery cfcatch type=mycustomtype div style=color:red; cfoutput#cfcatch.message#/cfoutput /div /cfcatch /cftry /cfif form ... cfparam name=form.membername type=string default= input type=text name=membername value=#htmleditformat(form.membername)# ...etc... /form You can also use CFForm for which there is plenty of documentation -- it creates client-side javascript validation. I've avoided using it in general because I've not been happy with the way it works. On CFMX it includes a client side .js file which can be pointed to with a new scriptsrc attribute, i.e. cfform scriptsrc=/lib/cfform.js ... This is an improvement over the previous versions as it allows you to customize the client-side script and the behavior of the cfform tag without making any changes to the CF Server. Then there's the default ColdFusion Server server-side validation: input type=text name=membername value= input type=hidden name=membername_required value=Please enter your name. This will halt processing of the next page and ask the user to use their browser's back button, providing a list of error messages from fields not properly provided. _required requires a field, _date requires the field to be a date and _numeric requires the field to be a number. I think there may be a couple others, but those are the ones I remember. It should still be in the CF Server documentation. And then there's the qForms API ( http://www.pengoworks.com ) which is a JavaScript API for client-side form validation. I use it (usually in combination with server-side validation using the try-catch as above). I've been pretty impressed with the API in general, although it does show the occasional bug, just like any other open-source project. I've had to fix the _trim() function a couple times by overwriting the one provided in the API with my own (infinite loop - ick). One or more of these should get you where you need to be. :) If you use client-side validation ( cfform, qForms or FusionScript ) I also recommend that you use some form of server-side validation as well. The default ColdFusion Server method of using hidden form fields with _required, _date etc. is likely to be the easiest and as a result least prone to error. hth s. isaac dealey954-776-0046 new epoch http://www.turnkey.to lead architect, tapestry cms http
