CFIMAGE (CF8) - moving /saving file from CFFileServlet
Hi all,
I'm having problems getting an image which I've used CFIMAGE to crop on CF8.
I can crop the image, return it to the browser, but trying to 'get' at it on
the subsequent page request is driving me mad.
I can output the image, i.e img src=
http://localhost:81/CFFileServlet/_cf_image/_cfimg588898389753871789.jpg; /
for the usual five minutes the temp file exists for, but if I try to do:
cfimage
action=write
source=#expandpath('/CFFileServlet/_cf_image/_cfimg588898389753871789.jpg')#
destination=#expandPath('/images/portraits/#profile.image#_crop.jpg')#
overwrite = yes /
i.e, I want to copy/move the file from the temp location to a more permanent
location,
I'd get
File D:\www\blah\html\CFFileServlet\_cf_image\_cfimg5926235398043866604.jpg
does not exist.
When it really does - I can pull it up in a browser and look at it.
This is presumably due to /CFFileServlet/ not being a physical directory?
I've tried using cfimage to create another image object from the same
location, and also tried to use cfhttp to get the image, but to no avail..
How does everyone else do it?
Thanks
T

Re: CFIMAGE (CF8) - moving /saving file from CFFileServlet
I'm using Matt Gifford's trick of returning the cropped image via an ajax
request:
http://www.mattgifford.co.uk/image-cropping-with-coldfusion-jquery/
So, yes, I suppose I could save it at that point, but it would remove the
functionality of being able to revert to the original which is rather handy.
There must be a way of getting at the servlet images though?

Can't you just either (a) save it to a variable in memory on your
first operation, or (b) save it to a specific destination on your
first operation? You can then serve it in the browser as needed.

Function to Output a query as an ol or ul
Hi all, Having not found an existing function to do this (output a query object as a nested ol or ul), I thought I'd try my own hand at it - I'm *so* close. Yet, not quite there. Basically, my mind has given up trying to get the logic correct in when to close /li elements. It works most of the time, but if I say have a nested list, it gets a bit confused and doesn't close the /li - So XHTML throws a wobbly. Can anyone see where I'm going wrong? (or better still, happen to have a function which does something similar I might adapt?) Here's some dummy data and the function: http://neokoenig.pastebin.com/k7EQ8B98 Thanks in advance for any insight...

Re: Function to Output a query as an ol or ul
It sort of makes sense that this is a recursion issue, as I keep hitting the 'You need to know the future' (i.e the next row before it's happened) feeling.. Re: Michael, yes, assume the query is sorted (i.e the depth is how deep the containing UL is). It does my head in. Recursion that is.

Paging in a customtag

Cfoutput query backwards
Hi All, Is there a way of outputting a Query in cfoutput in reverse without creating another query, or adding rows to the query, and with no numerical index? I have a manual query object created, with galleryId, and galleryName, but GalleryID is not a sequential number sequence nor alphabetical, so ORDER BY galleryID doesn't have the correct effect; ie. values might be: ID Name 2007_fooFoobar 2007_abcFooFoo Obviously, when I CFDUMP the query, you get CF's ID in the column, and outputting QueryName.currentrow will give you a sequential numerical list, but I want CF to output that Query in reverse!

Creating an in-out application w spry/CF
I have a project: I need to create an in and out board (i.e a webpage/application which sits on a tablet PC by an entrance to a building); The app needs to show a list of names, populated from a MySQL database, and on click, update the time signed in to the database, and change the color of the name to indicate whether they're in the building - that part is easy - however, the app needs to work multiple machines: Hence, you have data which needs to be pushed out to the other devices on the other entrances, so the record of when someone is in or out is identical. Previously, this has been done by making every click a form submission, and then each version of the page would use a Meta refresh every 30 seconds to update their displays; There's got to be a cooler way of doing this: Any ideas? Spry/Flex/Flash may be the way forward, and I'm intending to use it as a training exercise, so willing to learn, but would like a nudge in the right direction!

Am I shooting myself in the foot by looking at US hosting (i,e hostmysite.com ) even though the majority of sites I run are in the UK (or have a large UK audience + are co.uks?)? The pricing just seems so much... cheaper. There's the obvious issue of Lag, but if somewhere offers 24h tech support, that should be the only issue?

You might want to look at the specific date functions for the DB
you are
using. I prefer to let the DB do any work it can rather than CF.
As long
as the business rules for what needs to be returned will not
change, I'd
rather have the DB figure out the date I need.

Outputting structs
Hi All, i've created a struct which when outputted, outputs in the 'wrong order' If you run the code below when you're in a subdirectory, i.e: /home/mydir1/mydir2/somepage.cfm each dir and page name is added to the struct in order: When I dump the struct, it comes out in the correct order, but when I loop it as a collection, it comes out in a wierd order?

Re: 5 domains, one set of templates and one CF hosting account.
You could do this many ways: For multiple languages, I often use session vars (that way the URLS don't get bogged up, but you do use a few more resources having all those sessions flying around I guess) But multiple sites, i.e different domain names on one hosted account I run each site out of it's own folder, then use ISAPI to rewrite the URLS: so www.domain.com/site1/ - www.site1.com This way, you could have a siteroot application.cfc, and then application.cfc's which extend the site root cfc. I've got about 25 sites running out of one hosting account using that technique: only catch is you can't use absolute siteroot URLs.

IIS vs Apache on Win2003 w CF
Hi All, Currently, we've got a couple of servers happily running IIS, +Server 2003 +ColdFusion, with some of the sites using access databases, which contrary to some people's experience on here, have been behaving very well. We want to set up a new server, and after some discussion have thought about running CF on Win2003 +Apache (+php) and thus having better mySql support: apparently installing MySql on IIS is not very straightforward. As I see it, the benefits are mySql + the use of htaccess and other such tricks, and we'd probably get something like NaviCat etc.. Are there any blog posts/articles about the 'gotchas' I might run into re: CF on this configuration? Thanks!

Re: Group-level security theory
Just to throw in my two pennies worth: I have a CMS where there are about 20 websites which use the same editor, file upload etc. I do this the following way - I have a table with the web site specifics in, like the various upload directories, image directories etc, and then a User table. Each user has a list of approved websites, where the Unique ID for the website matches a list of IDs in the User entry. So when they login, I authenticate, then assign the various website variables to a session struct/query which are then used to display the info they require. Using the session scope means you can only assign them the information etc they need. You can then build the various templates you need for web page editing around the variables set in the session scope.

CFFORM: Making an image with CFGRID a link with rel attribute
Hi all,
New to CFFORM (flash) here - Im creating an admin system for a
photogallery - Im outputting thumbnails, with their captions into
rows, which are then editable.
What I need to do now is make the thumbnails into a link, so people
can view the full size image, but preferably, I want the link to have
a 'rel=lightbox' attribute, so they'll open in lightbox.js.
I've already created the necessary html link, which I've put into
the query as a row, so each record has the necessary string, I'm just
foxed how to implement it. the href attribute obviously only works
for applets, so I'm a little stuck..
Ideas please?
Code below..
!---Get Photos Recordset (returns
GalleryID,PhotoFileName,PhotoFormat,PhotoCaption,PhotoID---
cfinvoke component=components.managephotos method=getcaptions
returnvariable=Getphotos/cfinvoke
cfscript
//Set up the Query
OutputPhotos = QueryNew(thumbnail,id,Caption,larger,
varchar,integer,varchar,varchar);
//Create Rows
QueryAddRow(OutputPhotos, GetPhotos.Recordcount);
/cfscript
cfset counter=1
cfloop query=GetPhotos
cfscript
//Loop Adding contents to Q
QuerySetCell(OutputPhotos, thumbnail,
gallery_thumbnails/#GalleryID#/#PhotoFileName#.#PhotoFormat#,
counter);
QuerySetCell(OutputPhotos, id, #PhotoID#, counter);
QuerySetCell(OutputPhotos, Caption, #PhotoCaption#,
counter);
QuerySetCell(OutputPhotos, larger, a
href=../images/gallery_fullsize/#GalleryID#/
#PhotoFileName#.#PhotoFormat
# rel=lightboxView/a, counter);
/cfscript
cfset counter=counter+1
/cfloop
!---Output Form---
cfform name=myform height=500 width=750 format=Flash
timeout=100 onload=formOnLoad()
cfformitem type=script
function formOnLoad(){
myGrid.getColumnAt(1).labelFunction = setLabel;
}
function setLabel(item:Object, columnName:String): String {
if ( item[columnName] != undefined) {
return ../images/ + item[columnName];
}
else {
return ;
}
};
/cfformitem

I see what you are saying, but two issues:
1. My code does not have any CFAbort tags, just the Application.cfc
and
the index.cfm.
2. You are checking for the EventName in the OnError method, which
means
that the OnError event has already fired when you are performing the
check. I am not concerned with stuff inside the OnError method. I am
concerned as to why the OnError even is being fired in the first
place.
Thanks for the suggestions,

without those additional lines, cfabort (if it's anywhere in your
script) will set off an error, and this way, ending the session or
application won't trigger said script either..

A programming language is just a tool to use to meet an end. To me, I don't really care if I am writing in PHP / Ruby / ColdFusion, as long as I can do what I need to do. If I can make a case that CF allows me to do it faster with less man-power, then great, I can justify the cost. No biggie. Are CF developers less for me to hire than PHP / Ruby / PERL developers?

Re: Password access for PDF files
The ISAPI rewrite would catch ALL instances of .pdf or whatever you script it to: So , www.domain.com/test.pdf would be caught, rewritten to: www.domain.com/library/downloads.cfm?file=test.pdf The file string could then be parsed, checked in a databse, and then served if approved.

Hi All, Has anyone come across a Rich Text Editor which meets the following requirements: - Doesn't use inline styles, i.e p,em,i,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 only - Could load an external CSS stylesheet so what you see in the RTE window takes on the necessary styles of the website in which you're trying to edit - Filters out cut and pasted formatting (but more specifically, word) - Has html view - Has an image browser to browse a predetermined image directory on the server - Could be used on Shared Hosting, so not a fully fledged CMS I've found Widgeditor, which is almost there, but sadly not being developed anymore.

I'm assuming that the internal browser built into real player will be identifiable to CF, and thus you could divert requests, much like you would do if browsing from a mobile device? Any ideas on this would be appreciated. Best, Tom ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
