RE: how many milliseconds is too many?
If your using MS SQL, views do a good job of this too. You can consolidate your normalized data in a central location and still keep your ever expandable normalized database. Best of both worlds. Rick -Original Message- From: Dave Watts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 15, 2000 12:08 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: how many milliseconds is too many? This may not apply to your situation, but it is worth investigating. Consider creating a shadow database (possibly denormalized) to address the performance issue... organize the data to fit the specific processing requirements of your most frequently used queries. Then take advantage of stored procedures, caching, etc to reduce processing to the absolute minimum. To the purists, this may be heresy. But if the success of the site depends on the performance, it may be critical to depart from "pure" database design tenets, waste some storage... but get the job done. I am reminded of a quote from my years at IBM: "A job worth doing, is worth doing poorly... if there is no other choice" You're correct - sometimes there's no other choice. However, this step shouldn't be taken lightly. Very often, when I see people working with denormalized data, and I ask them about it, they say "we did it this way for performance", even though they could have gotten the performance they needed without denormalization - they just didn't know how (or know better).

RE: CFPARAM or CFSET
I use cfparam for a number or reasons:
It helps avoid errors by cfparam all your varaibles so they will always be
defined.
I also saves the hasle of having to do something like this:
cfif not isdefined("url.var")
cfset url.var=0
/cfif
instead use:
cfparam name="url.var" default=0
Which will do the same thing.
Hope that helps.

RE: Unlimited Line Item Subform functionality in a FORM
Bob, Sounds to me like your talking about an everyday shopping cart. I would use a associative array (structure) to store all the items names and values for each item and then append each of these structures to an array. At the end of the order, just loop through the array and output the structures (or line items) into the database. Make sure you have your line item table set up with a foreign key to the parent order table by using an order id. Then to pull an order just join the two tables by the order id. If none of this makes sense to you, just look at some tutorials on doing a shopping cart in Cold Fusion and they should give you the ideas you need. Rick -Original Message- From: Bob Silverberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2000 8:32 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Unlimited Line Item Subform functionality in a FORM Hi all, Here's the scenario: A user is entering an order, the order will have some info associated with it, and then the order can have multiple line items added to it. Each line item will have a number of attributes (like product, quantity, etc.). In a program like Access, you can create a form for the Order, and then create a subform for the line items. You can easily set it up so that the user can enter as many line items as they like. After they enter a line item, the interface adds a new blank line item. We need to replace an Access application with a ColdFusion application and provide this same functionality. If we have to, we could provide input fields for a specific number of line items, and then provide a button to add more items, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any custom tags, applets or ActiveX controls that would provide this functionality. Or perhaps I'm missing an obvious easy solution. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bob ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Converting Access DB to SQL Database
They should have set up a new datasource for the sql database. Then you should have your dsn in your cf apps as a variable in the application.cfm page. So all you would have to do is change what the variable is. As far as upgrading your access database, I've used Microsoft Access 97 Upsizing Tool with good success. There still could be some issues with datatypes/conversions between sql and access so extensive testing afterwords is definitely advised. Good luck!

RE: Locking
It makes sense to me that it shouldn't cause any problems, but they still
recommend doing it every time, whether for read only or not. The technique
that Ben Forta recommends is after setting it to an application variable set
it to the request scope for reference throughout the rest of the application
which is the technique I've adopted.

RE: Force Download in Browser
I disagree. This is the syntax I use with the best success for all types of
files:
cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment;
filename=#url.file#"
cfif isdefined("url.nonsecure")
!--- map to gates webdocs directory ---
CFIF HTTP_USER_AGENT CONTAINS "MSIE"
CFCONTENT TYPE="#mimetype#"
FILE="e:\webdocs\#url.thispath#\#url.file#"
CFELSE
CFCONTENT TYPE="application/unknown"
FILE="e:\webdocs\#url.thispath#\#url.file#"
/CFIF
cfelse
!--- map to secure directory ---
CFIF HTTP_USER_AGENT CONTAINS "MSIE"
CFCONTENT TYPE="#mimetype#"
FILE="e:\secureDocs\#url.thispath#\#url.file#"
CFELSE
CFCONTENT TYPE="application/unknown"
FILE="e:\secureDocs\#url.thispath#\#url.file#"
/CFIF
/cfif
The variations between browser types are so the save as dialog shows the
correct file name for each type of browser. Notice I also use a directory
that is outside of the web directory which is a nice technique for securing
files. Works for me, hopefully it will work for you too.

i don't think u can use cfheader and cfcontent together. the latter one
overrides the former. tough luck. a solution would be to set a special
download directory and enforce the content type/content-disposition there.
see what happens.

Hello,
Does anyone know how to force the browser to download a file?
I'm using the following code, and it works for word documents, but
not text files.
CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="attachment;
filename=#get_record.File_Name#"
CFCONTENT TYPE="application/octet-stream"
FILE="#filePath#\#get_record.File_Name#" DELETEFILE="No"
The free drive sites accomplish this...
Thanks!

RE: CFLOOP has me stumped again.
First off, there is no point in grouping your sql query by all the fields. This does nothing, and remember that there is a very big difference when you use grouping in sql then when you use grouping in cold fusion. I'll let you look into the sql group, but here is how i would use a cold fusion grouping to get the display you want: CFQUERY NAME="getmodels" DATASOURCE="#dsn#" SELECT ANCAPID, model, make FROMANCAPCrashTests ORDER BY Make, model, ancapid /query cfoutput query="getmodels" group="make" #Make# cfoutput #model# - #ancapid# cfoutput /cfoutput Rick -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Michael Kear Sent: Monday, November 13, 2000 7:37 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFLOOP has me stumped again. I'm sorry if this is a very elementary CFLOOP question, but perhaps I've been looking at this one so long now I can't see the wood for the trees so to speak. I have a query that gives me Make, Model and ID of a range of cars. I want to display them on the page as follows: make1 model 1-1 model 1-2 model 1-3 model 1-4 make2 model 2-1 model 2-2 model 2-3 make3 model 3-1 model 3-2 etc In other words grouped by the car manufacturer, with each manufacturer's models in sequence. My SQL query is: CFQUERY NAME="getmodels" DATASOURCE="#dsn#" SELECT ANCAPID, model, make FROMANCAPCrashTests GROUP BY ancapid, model, make ORDER BY Make, model, ancapid /query So I believe the way I display the data is using CFLOOP but I'm dashed if I can work out what I have to do with CFLOOP to give me the result I need. Anyone? please?
