Web Form Login = NT Login?
Hi folks, Does anyone know of a way to pass a username and password directly to the OS? I have a website that will use NT authentication.And I want to use the username and password that I get from a form submittion to log that user in to NT.Basically, I'm trying to bypass the standard windows username/password/domain alert that pops up everytime you hit a site with NT authentication.Make sense? My site is structured like so: c:/inetpub/wwwroot/login.cfm - anonymous access c:/inetpub/wwwroot/securedsite/index.cfm - nt authenticated access and I want to pass a secure token / authorized user from login.cfm to the rest of the site. Any help is much appreciated! Ed. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: OT: CSS Question... is this possible?
It strikes me that if you remove the table/table, you eliminate the problem, no? If you must use tables, try something like this (syntax may not be exact) : !--- use a spacer image as a placeholder for the maximum amount of space to be occupied by the text i.e. 800 pixles high --- table style=position: absolulte; top: 0px; left: 0px tr tdimg src="" height=800 width=1/td /tr /table !--- then include your divs, place them in the exact position as the placeholder table above --- div id=page1 style=position: absolulte; top: 0px; left: 0px /div div id=page2 style=position: absolulte; top: 0px; left: 0px; visibility: none; /div another approach may be to simply hide the row of a table if this is possible i.e. table style=position: absolulte; top: 0px; left: 0px tr id=page1 td/td /tr tr id=page2 style=visibility: none td/td /tr /table there's another css property that belongs to some elements called 'display' i.e. display: none; I can remember which, but one of the properties makes the content invisibile AND also the space occopied by said content invisible. hth [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Looking for design pattern advice: role based permission to objec ts
Hi Experts:
Would appreciate if you could share your advice: how to keep the
customization info of a web application.
some sample requirements:
1. menu is dynamically created based on the Role of the logon user
2. Tables can be customized - for example, which columns to display,
editable, sortable, etc.
So in an OO application, where should I keep these customization
information?What design pattern / set of patterns do you recommend?
My initial thought was to create a factory that created a different manager
based on role
i.e
main.cfm:
productManager = createobject('component',
'productFactory').init(session.user.role);
productFactory.cfc:
function init (role) {
var productManager = createobject('component',
'productManager'role).init();
return productManager;
}
With this approach, I will need a seperate productManager for every role.
And every productManager would define only the properties and methods
available to that role.So it would work ... but then I would need a CFC
for every object-role combination.It strikes me that there must be a
better way?How have otheres implemented role-based permissions in there OO
apps?
Any help is much appreciated!
Ed.

Deleting all her cookies and other temporary internet files 2. Flushing her local DNS 3.

OT: OO ASP MVC/Framework Other Lists
Hi All, Sorry for the OT post.I've been pinging this list for so long about CF questions, I figured I'd check here first.I'm relitevely new to ASP programming and have a couple of newbie questions: 1. I noticed that you can define Classes with VBScript in ASP.I've found several articles on doing this but no documentation by Microsoft or any books on OO programming with ASP.Does anyone have any recomendations or horror stories to share on using VBScript in ASP pages for OO programming? Also, any book recommendations on OO ASP would be greatly appreciated. 2. Has anyone implemented the MVC design pattern (or any other design patterns) in their ASP application?If so, can you please point me to some examples and/or references on how I can emulate this?If not MVC, does anyone use any sort of framework or methedoglogy beyond DNA? 3.

RE: cfdirectory = slow
Try caching the results of cfdirectory in application scope i.e. change: cfdirectory action="" directory=#vDir# name=dirTest filter=z#fileIndex#.txt cfdump var=#dirTest# to: cfif not isDefined(application.dirtest) cfdirectory action="" directory=#vDir# name=application.dirTest filter=z#fileIndex#.txt /cfif cfdump var=#application.dirTest# This way cf only executes the _slow_ cfdirectory tag once (per application cycle). If the directory changes often (i.e. files get added, deleted, etc.,), then I would run a job that periodically deletes the application.dirTest variable and recreates it.This way the processing overhead is still transparent to the user.

(notice the addition of LIKE)
This generates the following error:
The system has attempted to use an undefined value, which usually indicates
a programming error, either in your code or some system code.
Null Pointers are another name for undefined values.
I also tried some variations:
AND WORKSTATIONNAME LIKE 'abcd%'
AND WORKSTATIONNAME LIKE '%abcd'
AND WORKSTATIONNAME LIKE '%abcd%'
AND WORKSTATIONNAME LIKE #preservesinglequotes('abcd')#
AND WORKSTATIONNAME LIKE #preservesinglequotes(abcd)#

There are too many uncontrolable network related factors involved that have nothing to do w/ an ISP's performance. If you want to compare the bandwith of one ISP to another, I would simply ask them what type of pipe they have connecting them to the Internet. And who their carrier is.

impersonate and cfdirectory
Hey folks, I'm in the midst of writing a component that takes as input a unc path i.e. \\\servername.domain\\dirthis\\dirthat and produces a list of files and directories based on the credentials *of the user calling the page* (this will be used in our intranet w/ Windows authentication). So for example, if NA/Esuyer calls directorylist.cfm?unc=\\\servername.domain\\dirthis\\dirthat, he will see all the files and directories that he is privy to in that unc path. If NA/JDoe calls directorylist.cfm?unc=\\\servername.domain\\dirthis\\dirthat, she will see al the files and directories that she is privy to. But this list may be different then what NA/Esuyer sees. And most importantly of all, the CF Service user may not have access to either of these directories. I don't see anything native to CF that'll allow me to do this ... please correct me if I'm wrong. So my question is this: 1. Can this be done by importanting the java.io.file / oranyotherobject? Does this object allow for impersonation, or perhaps passing an authorized user token? 2. If no CF, or Java, is .net my next best option? 3. Oh pretty please, has anyone already written a custom tag or something for this? Tanks!

OO Pet Store App
Hi Folks, I'm looking for a good book or other resource on OO programming. More specifically I'm looking for a book that describes the implementation of an OO web app. I've read books in OOP that describe the different terms/concepts of OO, but fall short in giving real life examples. Instead they talk about classes like cats, mammals, desks, chairs, persons, etc.,, which were very good in describing concepts, but fall short when I sit down to build an online store for example. By the same token I've read books in OO that describe the analysis and design process. And others about design patterns. But I haven't read any books on topics downstream. I'd like to see a book/resource take a software requirement for a pet store (or any simple web) app, show the different classes that are derived and their relationships, possibly show the UML, then give some code examples in language of your choice here, preferably Java ... CF would be ideal but I'm not holding my breath. Further it would be nice if the example followed some design patterns and a layered approach. Showing distinctions between the presentation, domain, and data source layers. What classes fit into these. And how they interact with one another. If anybody knows of such a book/resource I would love to hear your suggestions. My opinion on learning OO in general, is there will be no equivalent to learning by doing. But it would be nice to have a mentor (by way of a book or example) for those of us that don't have a human mentor present. TIA!

Or am I missing something? ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Preserve collection order
Hi folks,
Does anyone know of a way to preserve the order of keys in a structure so
that it matches the order in which it was created?
i.e.
I created a structure that looks like so:
instance structNew();
instance[id] = structNew();
instance[id].heading = Id;
instance[id].size = 50;
instance[manufacturer_name] = structNew();
instance[manufacturer_name].heading = MFG;
instance[manufacturer_name].size = 200;
instance[name] = structNew();
instance[name].heading = Name;
instance[name].size = 100;
instance[parttype_name] = structNew();
instance[parttype_name].heading = Part Type;
instance[parttype_name].size = 100;
instance[status_name] = structNew();
instance[status_name].heading = Status;
instance[status_name].size = 100;
When I cfloop through it ( i.e. for ( field in instance ) {} ), I would
expect it to find the id field first, then manufacturer_name, and so on
and so fourth in the order in which the structure was created. Instead it
loops through in this order:
name,id,parttype_name,manufacturer_name,status_name
I figured I'd try to trick it by doing a structKeyList() then cflooping
through that, but it returns the same thing:
name,id,parttype_name,manufacturer_name,status_name
Does anyone know of a way to cfloop through this structure in the order in
which it was created: id,manufacturer_name,name,parttype_name,status_name ?
TIA!

RE: Preserve collection order
Thanks for the feedback all! Matt, you wouldn't happen to have a snippet of CFML code you can send me for this as I've never done this, or used any kind of Java code w/in CF before. If not, no big thing.

application.function
Is there a way to define functions in application scope w/o putting them in
a cfc?
i.e.
function application.foo () { // this syntax doesn't work
writeOutput(bar);
}

CFChart: Set Axis Markers?
Hi folks, I currently have a cfchart that displays something like this: Line Graph (in ASCII) 650 | 577.8 | 505.6 | X 433 | / 361.1 |X/ 288.9 |/ \/ 216.7 | X \/ 144.4 | / X 72.2| X 0 | --- J A S N D U U E O E L G P V C How do I get the markers on the y-axis (650, 577.8, ..., 72.2, 0) to read: 700, 600, 500, 400, 300, 200, 100, 0? I'm not currently passing anything to cfchart or cfchartseries that generates these numbers. My guess is that CF takes an average internally to calculate these markers. Any help is much appreciated!

Good show Ryan! That did it! I used your calculations as is ... the only trick was to dynamically derive the max value based on the dataset, which I did with maxArray().

Is there an alternative to CFTREE?
Does anyone know of anything other then CFTREE that will allow a user to select a directory from a GUI? All the custom tags I've found on devX are wrappers around CFTREE. I'd prefer an applet-free alternative. Maybe something in Flash? The only requirement is that it must work within the context of an HTML form (i.e return a value to a form field).

RE: Writing Excel files
Hi Cassidy, Here's a good COM free alternative: 1. Start with your finished product i.e. the finished excel document you're trying to generate w/ CF. With Office 97 and higher you can save Excel documents as .html files using File - Save As - File Type = .htm 2. From there it's just a matter of generating that saved file: generateexceldocument.cfm - cfset attributes.filename = test.xls cfsavecontent variable=attributes.generatedpage cfoutput html xmlns:o=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office xmlns:x=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel xmlns=http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40; head meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=windows-1252 meta name=ProgId content=Excel.Sheet meta name=Generator content=Microsoft Excel 9 link rel=File-List href=./headcountest_files/filelist.xml link rel=Edit-Time-Data href=./headcountest_files/editdata.mso link rel=OLE-Object-Data href=./headcountest_files/oledata.mso /head body link=blue vlink=purple table x:str border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 width=858 style='border-collapse: collapse;table-layout:fixed;width:644pt' col width=256 style='mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:9362;width:192pt' col width=160 style='mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:5851;width:120pt' col width=122 style='mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:4461;width:92pt' col width=256 style='mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:9362;width:192pt' col width=64 style='width:48pt' tr height=23 style='mso-height-source:userset;height:17.25pt' td colspan=4 rowspan=2 height=40 class=xl29 width=794 style='height:30.0pt; width:596pt'Hello World!!/td td width=64 style='width:48pt'/td /tr /table /body /html /cfoutput /cfsavecontent cffile action = write file = #request.reportPath##attributes.filename# output = attributes.generatedpage# !--- make sure to save this as .xls file!! --- - 3. Then redirecting to it: cflocation url=#request.reportWWW##attributes.filename# This is a nice COM free approach. I like it because you can make the Excel sheet as complicated as you want i.e. use multipe sheets, formulas, special formatting, page headers and footers, etc., HTH ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: JS question / DOM hiding all elements in square area
WG, check out: http://www.milonic.co.uk/menu/ This is a self-contained js menu solution that should satisfy your geekiness (excuse me, nerdiness). There is a setting that you set inside the configuration portion of the js file that allows the menu to hide elements underneath it. If you still want to roll your own, at the very least you could parse their code and try to finger out how they did it. HTH.

RE: format excel
I found that if you want to implement some of the more advanced functionallity in Excel w/o using COM, you're better of creating an excel sheet using cffile then redirecting to it using cflocation. So for example, to implement word wrap: wordwrap.xls html xmlns:o=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office xmlns:x=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel xmlns=http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40; head meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=windows-1252 meta name=ProgId content=Excel.Sheet meta name=Generator content=Microsoft Excel /head body table tr td width=100This is an example of word wrapping. Since the width of this column is 100, this text wraps/td /tr /table /body /html and nowrap: nowrap.xls html xmlns:o=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office xmlns:x=urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel xmlns=http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40; head meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=windows-1252 meta name=ProgId content=Excel.Sheet meta name=Generator content=Microsoft Excel /head body table tr td nowrapThis is an example of nowrap. Yes, Excel will understand this./td /tr /table /body /html HTH ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Hey James,
Here's what I do with multi-button forms in FB3:

input type=hidden name=fuseaction value=this value is set by the
onclick event of each button

input type=submit name=operation value=Add
onClick=javascript: mainForm.fuseaction.value='#XFA.btnAdd#'; if
(_CF_checkmainForm(mainForm)){mainForm.submit();}
input type=submit name=operation value=Delete
onClick=javascript: mainForm.fuseaction.value='#XFA.btnDelete#'; if
(_CF_checkmainForm(mainForm)){mainForm.submit();}
input type=submit name=operation value=Edit
onClick=javascript: mainForm.fuseaction.value='#XFA.btnEdit#'; if
(_CF_checkmainForm(mainForm)){mainForm.submit();}

/cfform
This keep me from nesting cases in fbx_switch. HTH
