Re: Strange occurrence
Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought it was possible to hijack a session if a user knew another users cfid and cftoken variables. I have seen users pages get switched if a user emails another user a url to a page with the cfid and cftoken in the url line (e.g http://mydomain.com/file.cfm?cfid=1234cftoken=29282928) Would it be possible that the one user emailed the other user a link? I did have a lot of problems with session variables getting switched and with firewalls with CF 4 -- it has been a while and it could have been a locking issue at the time -- at any rate, there was a long thread in the CF forums about this and the only fix that I was able to come up with was to switch to client variables instead.

You can use decode for that: Select count(decode(myfield,'Running',1,null)) as cnt_Running, count(decode(myfield,'Offline',1,null)) as cnt_Offline, count(decode(myfield,'Unknown',1,null)) as cnt_Unknown count(myfield) as total_Count (where myfield is the field that returns the Running, Offline or Unknown text) HTH, Tim P. - Original Message - From: Edwards Robert (air0rae) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 3:17 PM Subject: OT: Stupid SQL Problem (in oracle) I need some way to convert a word into a number.

Re: Using IFRAMES ???

I am using an IFRAME to display a news ticker, and the ticker works well, however I am having a problem with the overlay of some elements on the page, When an hiermenu drops down over the ticker the menu drops behind the ticker instead of above? Anybody have any ideas on how I can change the properties so the menus overlays the news ticker as it should? This is not a problem in IE 5.5 and above, it only occurs in earlier versions of the browser. The only workaround that I'm aware of is to hide the IFRAME like so: if (document.all !window.createPopup) document.all.myIFrame.style.visibility = hidden; That should hide the frame in IE4 and 5, but not 5.5. If IE4 compatability isn't an issue for you, use document.getElementById instead of document.all but have had little luck with this?, is there any other approach apart from IFrame to achieve the above such as DIV ??

Re: Oracle and CF5
Stephenie, Oracle doesn't make anything real easy. There is no executable, what you need is the Oracle Universal Installer. If you have the Oracle Client installed, there should be a menu item called Oracle Installation Products. Click on the Universal Installer, and click Next... Then on the next screen for Source, click browse and find the products.jar file -- this should have been extraced from your driver download (in a Disk1\Stage\ directory in the location where you extracted the files) If you don't have that, then you would need to grab hold of an oracle product that has the installer on it -- the client is the best bet. There is a product for download on the Oracle site called Oracle Rdb ODBC Drivers that has the Installer included with the download -- these are not the drivers you need, most likely, but you it may be a quicker way to grab hold of the installer .

The Javascript sets the value via the code new
Option('\\somemachine\somedir\some.exe','\\somemachine\somedir\some.exe'
) (that's the double quotes within single quotes if it's not too clear).
The problem is, it translates out to \somemachine
omedirsome.exe
(the somedirectory begins with a t, so I'm thinking that it's translating it
to a tab character). When I pass the selection to another page, it passes
the tab and the formatting as translated, what I need is for the slashes and
characters to be passed as that are in the DB.
Is there anything I can do with regex or something to keep the slashes the
way they are? Kind of like PreserveSingleQuotes.

cfinvoke vs cfhttp
Folks, I've been helping a client get a proper response back from a webservice written in vb.net and because of the way the service was written, a particular method will not work using cfinvoke. It is supposed to return an xml document, but for some reason CFMX cannot handle it. As a workaround the service will also handle a http get or post, so I've used cfhttp to use the same service and get the xml that way. My client says it work temporarily, but is not stable enough to go live. I am not sure why... So my question to all of you is there any truth to this? Why would running a cfinvoke be any more stable than a cfhttp call? It seems to be that basically it is soft of doing the same thing behind the scenes.. My guess is that he has a sense that cfhttp is unreliable due to a lot of the problems it had back in the 4.x days. Thoughts? Thanks!

Its probably take a couple of milliseconds longer, so it really makes no difference. I'm not sure I agree with the looks cleaner comment though. Sure, its on one line, but its not the easiest thing to read. I use IIF a reasonable amount, but given the choice. I'd go with cfscript instead To be honest, in Stephen's simple case, you don't need the logic to set QueryResults to true or false, you can just do this. cfif myQuery.RecordCount !--- Got some records --- cfelse !--- Got no records --- /cfif CF will take anything that is greater than 0 to be TRUE and 0 to be FALSE. (Haven't checked what happens with negative numbers in a while, so couldn't possibly comment) A word of warning about this though You'd be better using myQuery.RecordCount GT 0, as I'm not sure that CFMX will take myQuery.RecordCount as a BOOLEAN when it is greater than 1.

SOT : Leading 0's in csv file
I'm building a csv file and the data has a leading 0 in front -- for example: 0123,0456,0789 etc... When I bring it into excel, it shows as 123 , 456 , 789 etc. Is there any way I can output the .csv so that it retains that leading 0 when I bring it into excel?

Re: SOT : Leading 0's in csv file
That is what I thought too -- the .csv is fine, just excel.
We did try the apostrophe, but they don't like it when it shows up in the file.. What
we may do is replace the 0 with the letter O --
Thanks for the help!

The problem isn't the CSV, but Excel TRYING to be friendly
What you've got to do is force Excel into seeing it as text - try
putting an apostrophe (') in front of the numbers

CFPop Attachment weirdness...
We are using the cfpop tag to do a simple display and I am having trouble
showing the number of attachments. There is one particular individual that
when they send an attachment, it always shows up as 0 attachments. Funny
thing is, if I forward that email to myself, or attach that same attachment,
it shows up fine. Would there be something with his email client (Using
Outlook Express 5, which is what I was using as well)?
Code below:
cfpop

Re: CFREPORT and Error 500
Crystal Reports professional comes with a 5 user license agreement that will allow up to 5 reports run at a time. I have not used cfreport with Crystal, but I have used ASP and I know with ASP, the licenses can get eaten up pretty quick. (Crystal keeps track of the open objects and will not allow any more to be launched past your license) We had to purchase a universal connector license or something like that to allow our company access. It was not very cheap at all and we have around 500 users.I inherited this project after the decision to use Crystal was made and they won't tell me how much they spent on it.

E.g FirstQuery: Select Names from UserTable Where Name = 'john' (Returns 1 record -- name is 'John') QoQ: Select Names from FirstQuery Where Name = 'john' Returns 0 records -- but Select Names from FirstQuery Where Name = 'John' will return the record.

Re: Me Vs. Counters
Michael, IMO, rolling your own might be a more accurate count. I had a similar problem counting hits to .pdf files. (For some reason, some adobe readers will register double hits to the same file -- this was well over a year ago, so it may have changed since then). Anyway, what I ended up doing is basically setting a cookie on the user with the filename and date -- I checked that with the request to the file and if the user had already requested it that day, then don't register a hit, otherwise, register a hit. Since your site has a lot of pictures, I wouldn't try to set a cookie for every picture and that would be a lot of traffic going back and forth, so a client or session variable might be better in that regard.

Re: UUID Woes
Norman, I remember seeing a custom function (for CF 5) on http://www.cflib.org/ that has a CreateGUID function that creates it in microsoft form It is in the StrLib library. HTH, Tim P. - Original Message - From: Norman Elton [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 16, 2001 8:16 PM Subject: UUID Woes I'm starting to use UUIDs as primary keys, and they work great. Using Ingres, I just stored them as strings, and indexed them to be primary keys. According to the Ingres gurus, this wasn't a big deal. I was happy to see that MS SQL 2000 has native support for UUIDs. Unfortunately, their idea of a UUID is a bit different from ColdFusion: MS SQL: ---- ColdFusion: ---xxx Needless to say, SQL won't accept ColdFusion's UUIDs. Does anyone know a way to get around this and allow ColdFusion to specify UUIDs to SQL? Thanks! Norman Elton ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: Review: CF 5.0
I think that the review is a little dated -- as far as I know, there is no CFSQL tag -- it was just incorporated as part of CFQUERY . It does seem to fly much faster on my local machine, fwiw.

Re: Weird Session Timeouts
How is your memory on your server? I had a problem recently where my server's ram maxed out and it stomped all over the session variables. It was timing out my sessions every couple of *seconds*. Incidently, I switched them over to client variables (cookie based) and I haven't had a problem since. - Original Message - From: Norman Elton [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 15, 2001 9:01 AM Subject: Weird Session Timeouts This one's got me stumped. In my application.cfm, I've got... CFAPPLICATION NAME=PansophyPrd CLIENTMANAGEMENT=Yes SESSIONMANAGEMENT=Yes SETCLIENTCOOKIES=Yes SESSIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)# APPLICATIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimeSpan(0,8,0,0)# Seems right to me. Technically there shouldn't be quotes are the createtimespans, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. In CF Administrator, the maximum session timeout is 10 hours, the default is 20 minutes. The catch is, sessions seem to time out within an hour. Perhaps it's somehow using the 20 minute default (I was away from my desk the entire hour). This has happened before on other servers, and it certainly troubling. Any advice? Thanks Norman Elton ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: Doubled Form fields
I seem to recall seeing that as a bug that was fixed in the 4.5.2 service pack. If you don't have it, try installing it and see if that fixes the problem.

You need to put the attribute fileformat in there. I think by default it uses Flash, but that only works if you have Generator installed.

Re: CF 5 Cfgraph problem More Info
I believe what they meant to say is that the cfgraph tag requires JRun server and generator, if you want to produce *flash* type graphs. I can generate png and jpg graphs with no problem. I do not have Jrun server and generator installed on my machine. These are separate products from Allaire/MM. Also, the documentation states you can generate .gif files, but you can't.
