Re: deleting records
Sounds like you are missing some single quotes in your query statement. Maybe you can paste it here. Also, date is probably not the best unique identifier, depending on your application.

Subject: Kooky Form Field/List question.
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2000 08:48:21 -0700
I work on a college campus, and frequently I'm asked by
faculty/staff/students, why they can't just make a form in front page
express and have it send them an email (and we don't have the server
extensions). I have the hardest time explaining what a form handler is,
and how frontpage just can't do it.
So, I decided to make a generic Coldfusion form handler. Something that,
provided it was passed an email address, subject line, and a redirect URL
(for the success message), it would make an email to the address. Ok,
this
is the easy part. I have it already. The problem is, I need also to
pass
*any form fields* other than the ones required for the email in the body
of
the email. Biology is going to need different things on their form than
accounting, see, so I want to make this thing totally generic.
So, here's the problem. I can use the automatically-created
FORM.fieldnames list to get the field names onto the email like this:
cfloop index="test" list="#FORM.fieldnames#" delimiters=","
#test# : br
/cfloop
This code puts the names of the form field onto the email. Easy. I can
also test them for whether or not they're one of my required fields, and
not print them if they are. What I can't do is print the VALUE of the
form fields. Make sense? I was hoping I could do something like this:
cfloop index="test" list="#FORM.fieldnames#" delimiters=","
#test# : #FORM.#test## br
/cfloop
Yeah, but I can't. Any thoughts?

Re: displaying data from a table
I would assume that each row represents a record. Therefore, I would setup one main screen where users could search the records (by some identifying mark) or could select a record from a drop down lists of record. This selection would then send the user to a typical edit page, which would represent each column as some sort of field (text, checkbox, etc.) that the user could edit and then press a submit button to update the information. That is generally how we do update forms. Scott M.

Re: Deleting Session Variables
Session variables are stored in an array. You can kill the array (arraydelete()) but that will kill all the vars and Allaire does not recommend that. You can probably do some nifty functions by converting the array to a list, and finding out the position of the var you want to delete and then doing a arraydeleteat() for that var.. not sure.. guessing here.

Security

This seams like a lot of work to create an Insert. 3. If not, and this might explain all of the discussion about key creation, what was the consensous on the best way to generate a unique key? I generate keys in the page. That way, I don't have to search the database for the key-- I already have it. For this method, it is extremely important that you use CFTransaction. Otherwise you might get errors. cftransaction cfquery name="GetID" datasource="#application.Dsn#" SELECT MAX(UserID) as LastId FROM table; /cfquery cfset form.UserID=(GetId.LastID + 1) cfquery datasource="#application.Dsn#" insert into table (column) values (#column#'); /cfquery /cftransaction This code selects the largest ID number, adds one to it and sets that as the ID number of the new record. If you don't put this code in cftransaction, multiple simultaneous users could send records with the same id number. This method was recommended to me by Mr GuruMan Raymond Camden, and I've seen it mentioned here many times. It seems to be a relatively standard method. I haven't had any problems with it. -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Question: Does this initialize itself? If there is no data, will that

No, so what I did was created a dummy record with an id number of one,
inserted a real record and deleted the dummy. I don't know of any reason
that the dummy should be numbered one instead of zero; that's just the
number I picked. Theoretically, you could want the number to start really
high to make something look more impressive, so you could set the dummy to
any id number that you want. (Some one I know did this in a site with
listings similar to personal ads. Since the id numbers started at 10,000
and the id number was a URL parameter, it gave the illusion of 10,000
previously successful ads. Of course, it was just a sneaky trick.)
I guess you could seed the ID within the code. You could set an ID seed to
one (or whatever you wanted as the seed) and if there are no records
returned (LastID wouldn't be valid, so you couldn't add to it) you could
set the ID number to the seed. Then, any records after that would be built
on the record with the ID number of the seed. So you would want to do
this:
cfset IDSeed = 1
cftransaction
cfquery name="GetID" datasource="#application.Dsn#"
SELECT MAX(UserID) as LastId
FROM table;
/cfquery
cfif IsDefined('GetID.RecordCount') and GetID.RecordCount GTE 1
cfset form.UserID=(GetId.LastID + 1)
cfelse
cfset form.UserID=IDSeed
/cfif
cfquery datasource="#application.Dsn#"
insert into table
(column) values (#column#');
/cfquery
/cftransaction
I haven't actually tried this; I just thought of it. But I think it would
work pretty nicely.
I like this much better then using the Key in access, in that in Access
it
is a HARD key.. once a record is deleted, the key won't be reused and I
have
gaps in my listings. This method is a real world implementation, nice
code.
Well, I can't take credit for the code, but you should realize that the id
numbers for deleted records won't be reused unless the deleted records had
the largest ID numbers. However, if you want to clean up the id numbers
after a while, you can set up a program to renumber them starting with
some
number.

I am using Microsoft Access Autonumber to create Key fields for me.
1. Is this a wise thing to do?

This
seams like a lot of work to create an Insert.
3. If not, and this might explain all of the discussion about key
creation,
what was the consensous on the best way to generate a unique key?
I generate keys in the page. That way, I don't have to search the
database
for the key-- I already have it. For this method, it is extremely
important
that you use CFTransaction. Otherwise you might get errors.
cftransaction
cfquery name="GetID"
datasource="#application.Dsn#"
SELECT MAX(UserID) as LastId
FROM table;
/cfquery
cfset form.UserID=(GetId.LastID + 1)
cfquery datasource="#application.Dsn#"
insert into table
(column) values (#column#');
/cfquery
/cftransaction
This code selects the largest ID number, adds one to it and sets that
as
the ID number of the new record. If you don't put this code in
cftransaction, multiple simultaneous users could send records with the
same
id number. This method was recommended to me by Mr GuruMan Raymond
Camden,
and I've seen it mentioned here many times. It seems to be a
relatively
standard method. I haven't had any problems with it.

CheckBox
Ok.. checkbox question: I want to check in the action page to see if the check box was checked on the previous form page. Is that a IsDefined or a ParameterExists... in other words.. does it always exists, even if it wasn't checked, or do I just need to check if it exists? Thanks!

Re: about updating with CFSCHEDULE
I am not sure what the original message is about exactly, but it kicked my mind into a question: I output the result of the scheduled tasks to a file. Say I want to keep a log (either appending to that file or in a database preferred).. how would I go about that? Right now it simply overwrites the last file in there, so I get one week's worth of results. My only thoughts were to make another schedule item to rename the file according to the date it was last done (to keep a list of files with results) but that is no ideal. Scott M.

Re: Is 4.5.1 Solid
Not only do they use cached proxy servers, but they severely filter content. Wise words: "bad bad bad" =) Scott M.

So far no damage. We had previously installed the hot fixes for CFHTTP and CFMAIL and had switched some CFMAIL calls off to another machine so we didn't have many problems there. It now does allow the 20,000,000 AOL users that couldn't complete our pages do so...seems really strange to me that they would allow such crap to be issued as a release in the first place as an 'upgrade' ;) You can't really mean that. The problem is on AOL's end. CF Server now accommodates the problems on AOL's end. Do you honestly want Allaire to get accounts with every major ISP so they can check to see if the ISP's stupid procedures mess up the sites? I used to work at a hosting company and the focus was on video hosting. Every time we had a broadcast, we would get inundated with tech support calls from AOL users asking us why our site was broken. You can't imagine how many times I had to explain to people exactly why they needed to get a real ISP. AOL uses cached proxy servers and it is bad bad bad. The really funny calls were the AOL users who said "What do you mean you don't do tech support for AOL? You're the Internet, right?" The ISP who hosts many of my client's sites is considering switching to 4.5.1 as the active CF platform. There have been lots of threads re problems with various 4.5 versions... I am especially concerned with: CFHTTP regexps CFMAIL Anyone know of outstanding problems with 4.5.1? Any killer incompatibilities between 4.0 4.5 1?
