RE: SOT: Invitation for Beta Testers

[Turetsky, Seth]

Just a small UI comment, you use blue for headings and links(with no 
underline), so it's hard to tell what's a link and what's not until you mouse 
over it.  Gets a little confusing

RE: Multiple Blogs on one site

[Turetsky, Seth]

Just a suggestion, could you tag the posts by user in one blog instead of each 
user having their own blog?  I know blogger allows for this, so I 
programmatically include each by tag.  I just don't know how you would need to 
deal with security, can one user be trusted not to touch someone elses?

Subject: Multiple Blogs on one site

Multiple Blogs, Multiple Users, Overall Aggregated Portal of all Blogs.

I'm thinking of adding blogs to an existing commercial site.  I want my current 
customer base to have the option of creating one to many blogs under their 
existing account.  Also having the option of more than one user allowed to post 
blogs is desirable.  I would also like for them to choose a short URL for their 
blog such as http://domainname.com/userchoice and have that created when the 
blog is created behind the scenes.

Has anyone done this using an existing CF-based or other blog application?  
Does it comply with that blog application user license? 

I noticed that BlogFusion's Enterprise Blog Portal might be along the lines of 
what I was thinking of doing.  Does anyone use BlogFusion?  I'm not sure it 
will be flexible enough to have it all hosted there since I'd like to be able 
to tie it all into the larger premise of the site.

Any help, suggestions, or experience with BlogFusion, BlogCFC, BlogCFM or other 
tools would be much appreciated.

Best Regards,

Vince Collins

PS:  Ray Camden, if you are listening, have you allowed BlogCFC to be used for 
this sort of use?  Your user license is dependent on other underlying code 
bases so it's a bit fuzzy if I would be able to do this sort of thing.  I would 
not rule out the option of paying a license fee or provide a nice donation if 
that might be an option.

Definitely tinker around with iText.  You don't need to know Java, just how to 
call it with CFML.
Google 'createObject iText', you'll get some code examples to start with.  The 
developers also have a book:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1932394796/ref=cm_arms_pdp_dp/002-0951640-7721647
and a mailing list that they monitor if you run into any snags.  But your 
project really doesn't sound too complicated, unless you have to worry about, 
say fitting on one page and calculating row heights and where to wrap, that can 
be a pain

RE: OT JS - Moving elements in page

I just looked again, it was just that their AJAX demos are done in RoR, not 
sure why that was enough to send me away to mooTools though.  Especially that 
the mooTools site has very basic documentation with no demos.
Well, I also read that mooTools was much smaller, but I don't have any more

I messed around with doing something similar a lot lately, and I came up with 
two different approaches:

If the elements you want to "move" only contain one or two simple elements 
(like text or hyperlinks), you can simply swap the text or values of those 
child elements instead of actually moving the position of the elements in the 
DOM hierarchy.  I actually just made a UI tool that does just that in the 
Downloads box on the right-hand side of my blog (there's a working example on 
that download page as well):

http://www.swartzfager.org/blog

the purpose of the tool is really to _record_ the rearrangement of the 
elements (usually the elements of a list or table), not just visually rearrange 
them, but the JS techniques are the same.  It works in all the major browsers 
(including Safari).

The other approach is more like what you did with your reorder.html:  I had to 
build a bookmark portlet for our portal system, and I wanted users to not only 
be able to nest bookmarks and folders, but to be able to reorder two folders at 
the same level in the hierarchy...which meant moving all of the bookmarks and 
folders contained in the folder.  I ended up writing some functions that would 
clone the elements, remove the original elements, and then place the clones in 
the proper position of the document by figuring out which page element the 
clone should appear before and then using the insertBefore method.

It works in Netscape, IE, FireFox, and Opera, but not in Safari:  one of the 
functions involves reassigning element ids and Safari doesn't seem to like that 
for whatever reason.

If you're interested in seeing the code for the second approach, I could 
probably clean it up for public consumption.

Count me in!  Still using 4.5 and the 4.0 WACK!

There has been no compelling reason to update so far.
(Not to start this whole debate again...)  I'm waiting until CF includes 
built-in functionality that significantly addresses the user experience.  

I'm not looking to shave a few milliseconds off processing or to implement 
Flash forms or create pie charts.

I'm getting more right now from implementing jQuery into my programming than I 
would if I deployed CF 7.  I'm looking for more effective and engaging ways to 
present information, not just more effective ways of processing it.

I have high hopes that CF 8 might finally address the user experience more 
significantly... we'll see.

It's going cost me $1300 to get from CF 4.5 to CF 8, so it better be good.

RE: binary to PDF

[Turetsky, Seth]

Well this is really a shot in the dark.  But that failed because you overwrote 
the Java Object with a Coldfusion data type, which is a double datatype.

So this compiles, but I'm pretty sure this won't work since docLite2 has been 
converted to store in a CF variable, so I think it's probably not a byte[] 
anymore.  You were probably on the right path before, taking the output from 
the webservice call and piping it straight into mPdf.  Where is the webservice, 
is it an outside vendor or something?



  mPdf = createObject("java", 
"java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream").init("#docLite2#");
  MyVariable = mPdf.toString("ISO-8859-1");

oK THANKS

I made the change and get the following:


The selected method toString was not found. 



here's my code:



  mPdf = createObject("java", "java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream").init();
  mPdf = #docLite2#;
  MyVariable = mPdf.toString("ISO-8859-1");

If you use cfinvoke with an init() function in a CFC that returns itself, 
wouldn't you then be able to store the CFC in memory?

At any rate, what it REALLY means is that you can't invoke java objects.
HostMySite allows you to use createObject, as do many other providers offering 
shared hosting.

My fault, I should have replaced that.

Are you using iText? In the past, I created pdf's on the fly using byte arrays, 
so that I don't have to write to disk.

To display them, I did the following

RE: Take a minute to Digg this story about the Smith Project

[Turetsky, Seth]

>>It will be a long time before hosting companies take hold and use Smith.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but since it's just a jar file and not an install, why 
would a hosting company be involved with any decision over using Smith or not?  
You would just need to know what JDK they support

I agree though about our code slowly becoming less portable.  Ie, BD has 
features as well that Coldfusion doesn't support and vice versa, so I think 
using new tag/functions(just for the f$^&) of it may not be such a great idea.

Another thing I would like to point out is this. How many times do we speak and 
nobody listens in regards to new features? How long has some of the same bugs 
been around? IE: (CFMAIL) As an open source project, you could have these 
things addressed in the community and not have to beg a corporation for the 
changes. You would also not have to buy the new version with the bug fixes and 
new features everytime a new version came out. The one downfall in all of this, 
is that some clients will not want to host their own applications and therefore 
smith must adhere to the tags and functions that are available to use in the 
adobe product. Railo has features that Adobe's product does not, and if you use 
any of those features, your app is going to break if you have it hosted on an 
Adobe Coldfusion server. It will be a long time before hosting companies take 
hold and use Smith.

OT: Flash .sol viewer

Usually I'll do a remoting call to upload any data I store in flash's 
cookies(.sol files), but I have a little project I don't want to spend much 
time on, so I just want to manually grab and view the data in the sol file, but 
it's binary.

I see Actionscript Viewer can do this, so I downloaded the v3.0 demo but can't 
get it to open the file.

Anyone use this or any other program?

site I am working on and was wondering if anyone has used it and what they 
though.

Thanks,

Ben,

I visited your concept site, and thought it was great. I'd like to echo the 
sentiments of Rey and everyone else who's responded to your post. 
Your apology was top-notch, and your reputation is intact as far as I'm 
concerned. I don't know that Brian Simmons, CentraSoft.com or the CF community 
could ask for anything else from you. Writing a statement like this one and 
publishing it the the general public is one very hard thing for anyone to do, 
and it shows humility and grace.

Good job!

Ben, I'm also curious if you were somehow contacted by Brian Simmons or 
CentraSoft.com, or if you just woke up one morning and realized what you'd 
done. Don't feel obligated to answer. I'm just curious. :o)

Cheers,
Chris

SOT: java code

[Turetsky, Seth]

Anyone know why this wouldn't work:
InetAddress.getByName(hostname);

I'm trying to do a cfhttp to a https 
server(https://gatewaybeta.fedex.com/GatewayDC), which in the past worked fine. 
 After doing some googling, the error I get is a thrown error in apache's http 
client(note I'm using BD) because the above line didn't run.  My only thought 
is the proxy server here is blocking it.

Here's more of the java code(I'm getting the thrown error):
  try {
  InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getByName(hostname);
  } catch (UnknownHostException uhe) {
  throw new UnknownHostException("Could not resolve SSL sessions "
 + "server hostname: " + hostname);
  }

Thanks,
Seth

SOT: textfields on submit

[Turetsky, Seth]

I'm doing some dhtml with adding and deleting rows...each row having 2 
textareas.

I started to name them uniquely, but was wondering(as it would save time when 
deleting) if I name them the same, ie textfield1 and textfield2, would the 
values be in sync?  Say the values are:
Row1: 1a 1b
Row2: 2a 2b
Row3: 3a 3b
.Infinite # of rows

So when CF gets it, would 1a and 1b always be the first values of the lists, 
and 2a and 2b would be the 2nd...and so, or is that assuming too much?  And is 
that browser dependent?

Thanks

RE: Zipcodes addresses and all that jazz

[Turetsky, Seth]

Yep, data consistency is a pain no matter what.  I work for a global firm, so 
yes our tables are very complex, but we have that many more data entry and 
DBAs...that I've never seen.  They are employed, so I'm not too worried about 
them :) 

As for this project, the addresses are already in the database, I just need to 
pull them out and compare.  Wait, that sounded easier than it is.  I had it 
working for the US doing the geocoding solution on the fly, but it was very 
slow even for one record.  I want to do it x number of times and globally, not 
as simple :(

So to clean up the addresses would you build an address form with:
Number [ six digit textbox numeric only] Dir [ E.N.S.W. Dropdown] Street [ 30 
character text box alpha only] Sufix [ Dropdown with the 25ish approved 
extensions] zipcode [ 5 digit numeric only] +4  [ 4 digit numeric only]

What a nightmare for your data entry people.  they already complain about my 
dropdowns for MR/Mrs Jr/Sr lol.

where's the happy medium?

for that you don't need esri's ws, well at least for crow-flying distances. 
plenty of solutions based on zipcode centroids.

I don't know much about ESRI, but Microsoft allows to get driving directions

not.  M$'s other web service API(not sure about price), which I have not used

than google/yahoo.

As for the name of each of these API's, I may have said Mappoint when I should

RE: Zipcodes addresses and all that jazz

How do you want to verify the address?  Display a map, then the user would 
verify it?

I've been playing with Microsoft's Mappoint stuff lately, they offer a lot of 
stuff that Google does not.  See http://dev.live.com/virtualearth/sdk/ shows

OK, to start off with I already a table with:

-Zipcode, City, State, County, Country



I currently do a check onblur from the zip field to see if I have a valid zip 
and display back in a div the city state and county info.



I'd like to pass the address info to something like google Maps or Yahoo Maps 
and verify the address is entered correclty



This is for a non proffit to check-in foster parents to training programs and 
such.  Their volume is about 20 to 30 a day (new members).



How can I go about this cheeply of even *free*?

MapPoint

[Turetsky, Seth]

Google maps doesn't let you grab the distance programmatically, so I started 
looking at Microsoft's, which btw looks really extensive.  I saw some posts on 
this a few months ago and was wondering if anyone had worked on and gotten CF 
to use the API since then.  

Looks like all of their code is in .net, so I started to tinker with their JS 
example which takes 2 addresses and gives the driving distance and directions, 
although I only need the distance.  Now I wanted to do it for a bunch of values 
in a report layout, so it would show 2 zips and the distance.  I tried to get 
their version to make the JS calls sequentially down the page filling in a text 
box, but it looks like it only supports 1 map at a time.  And it looks to put 
too much load on the browser anyways.

Any info would be appreciated

Greetings fellow coders! I have a need to capture the data from a USB connected

own desktop-app to interact with the reader but I need to get the data into our 
web forms. As far as I know, there's no way to have CF capture the data 
directly since its on the users local machine. Will I have to resort to Java or

Any ideas or anyone have any previous experience with this?

Thanks all, I will go this route as well.
I've done something similiar with google maps, click one point and then another

http://www.kcwebcore.org/blog/index.cfm/2006/6/29/CFUNITED--The-Framework-Debate-Continues

>From the blog:

"Near the end of this mock trial, Simon made a point that set me free of the 
conflict of the debate. He related an account of a project he had worked on in 
England some time in the past in which he had 100 developers under him. He 
shared how it was that this large team had tried using Mach II, tried using 
Fusebox, and in both instances found those frameworks wanting. Then he showed 
them his own 'methodology', which they readily adopted and used to successfully 
complete the project. Simon's point was that he and his team had accomplished a 
large task, and didn't need to use a framework in the process. But between 
Simon's words lay the whole truth of this matter, the truth that finally freed 
me from the points and counterpoints that were tugging my intellect in both 
directions. This truth, folks, is this: Any application that actually works 
uses a framework. Simon likes to call his framework his 'methodology', 
resisting the urge to give it any kind of formal name or documentat!
 ion, and thus disguising it in obscurity and vagueness. Nevertheless, it is 
indeed a framework. So folks, this whole debate is bogus, the opposition's 
stance is vapor, and in reality is a one sided debate with the answer to the 
question of the validity of frameworks already woven into the very fabric of 
both sides of the argument. The answer, my fellow CF coders, to the question of 
whether or not using frameworks is a good thing, is an unequivocable "YES". You 
need frameworks, and whether you roll your own or adopt a community standard, 
there is no way to avoid them...logic will not permit it. "

I have decided to create an open source CFC that will allow everyone to take 
advantage of the iText libraries whether you have CF 6 or CF 7. I have added 
what functions I have needed but there are so many things that can be done with 
the iText library I would like to call on the community to get other functions 
you have created on your own that you would like to share with the rest of the 
community. So far here is what I have.


fillInForm(sourcePDF, query, destinationPDF) - Fills in a pdf with values from 
a query. Returns the name and path of newly created PDF.

Planning to add
listPDFFields(sourcePDF) - List names of fields, also want to return other 
attributes such as size and type of field.

So if you have something to contribute just reply to this email or contact me 
offline. Once we get a few more functions I will release it. Keep in mind this 
is also for CF 6 so if you have a function that merely duplicates the 
functionality of CFDocument that would be great.

cfdocument

[Turetsky, Seth]

I've heard that cfdocument uses iText to create pdfs, but does anyone know what 
it uses to parse the HTML/CFML?

We don't have CFMX7 here, but I have a cfc I wrote a long time ago that creates 
a report from a columnlist, but I would like to see if I can upgrade it to 
parse the code as well.

Thanks,
Seth

Maybe you could try something like this:




















No application.cfm for #name#






Here, we create a unique application name for each iteration, then clear the
application scope for that new name, which should hopefully clear it out.
Then include the new application (which will create a new name scope for
that application) and dump out the variables.

THIS IS UNTESTED. Not sure if you can even include more than one application
tag per file.

If they do NOT create their own APPLICATION scopes, then I would advise
against any sort of StructDelete() or StructClear() or whatever as you will
be dealing with the APPLICATION scope of an existing application. Just cause
you include it into another file doesn't mean that you are "borrowing" the

using the same memory space. 

A gangy solutions might be to have one page that runs through the different
application.cfm files and for each of them, it does a CFHTTP grap to a file
called ApplicationDump.cfm which would take a file path in the URL and would
include the application.cfm file and dump out the application scope. This
way, each CFHTTP call, while slower than including, would have it's own

recursive includes

[Turetsky, Seth]

I'm wanted to write a small utility to manage our applications here, just to 
display all of the variables used in the application.cfm's.

Sounded easy, I'm using cfdirectory and including each application.cfm and just 
dumping the variables.  Problem is that by the last application, it is all 
variables used by all the applications. 

Is there a way to clear out the variables before displaying the next?

Thanks,
Seth

RE: Flash radio button question

[Turetsky, Seth]

Well, I guess it's just how components work.  That value is deep down in the 
belly of the component and you have to use a function to get it out.

The loadvars only sends the variables on the level you specify, so you have to 
get the component to throw it up first :)

That did it. I simply output 2 new variables with the value of
radioGroupName.getValue() and that worked perfectly.

Now, the bigger questions is "who was the complete idiot that forced us
users to have to go through that extra step?"

RE: Flash radio button question

[Turetsky, Seth]

Andy,
If you are using the Flash ide, you can use the trace command and it will 
display info in the output window.

So, try something like this(but replace radioButtonName with yours)
trace(radioButtonName.getValue());

It looks like we are using the same radio button component, so that function 
should be the same.  
I forget how the loadVariablesNum function works, it sends all variables on 
that level to the specified page?  If so, maybe you have to set the values 
first, ie:
ableToAttendFlg = radioButtonName1.getValue();
bringAGuestFlg = radioButtonName2.getValue();
loadVariablesNum("form.cfm", 0, "POST");

But definitely trace them first, to make sure it's returning the correct values 
first.

If this doesn't work, send me the fla and I will take a look

Seth...

Here's my AS code. You can see the working form here:
http://www.riojunction.com

Password is testing.

submit_btn.onRelease = function(state) {
if ((name == "" or name == undefined) or (title == "" or title ==
undefined)) {
_root.error._visible = 1;
stop();
} else {
loadVariablesNum("form.cfm", 0, "POST");
gotoAndStop(2);
}
};

I'm posting the variables to form.cfm which just contains a cfmail tag. I'm
not checking for guest or attend (both radio buttons which have a default
value of Yes). All of the text fields work properly, but when I try output
the value of either of the radio button groups I get the text "[object
Object]". All I need to know is how to access the radio button group
variable from within Flash.

When setting up my form I simply grabbed the default radio button component,
gave it a groupName of "attend" and a label of "Yes". It's just hard to test
the form because I can't see the output.

Any ideas? I'd be happy to send over the FLA if you need that.

RE: Flash radio button question

[Turetsky, Seth]

Andy,
I think we are a little confused in how you are doing this.  
So, you have a flash movie with some form type elements, correct?  So, what 
functionality are you using to pass these values to a "processing page".

Assuming you coding using the Flash IDE or in a seperate .as file?  Just trying 
to grasp a hold of what exactly you are doing.

With the "forms" I've created in Flash(usually for pocketPC's), I've had to 
code it all myself.  Not like a html form submit, where things automatically go 
into the form scope.

-seth

p.s forgot to trim and didn't see this post hit the list, so trying again.

Subject: Flash radio button question


When I POST a Flash form containing a radiobutton group to a processing
page, how do I access the selected value of that variable?

The other form types work just like you would think. I output "name" and I
get Andy Matthews. I output company and I get ICGLink. But when I output
guest (which is a radio button group set to either yes or no) I get the text
"[object  Object]".

How do I access the actual value of that group?

It's not a "flash form" generated by CF. It's a hardcoded flash form built
from scratch. I've only got CFMX 6.1, so Flash forms are out, plus I want to
do some hardcode design to the form itself.

Anyway, I'm doing it this way because I need to get it done. I can't spend
time learning how to code some other stuff just for this little project.

I just want to submit my variables to a processing page, receive a message
(1 or 0) if the contents were successfully saved, then be able to display a
message to the user to that effect.

Are you talking about a form built with cfform format="flash", or a swf
file?  I think you are talking about a swf, and if so I'm not going to
be much help.  If it is a swf, why are you intent on using that?  Why
not just build a new form in a format you're used to?

I've got a Flash form that I've built myself. I've done this once a long

Does anyone have code they'd care to share on how to setup a flash form,

RE: BEA licenses BlueDragon for WebLogic

[Turetsky, Seth]

Even if there are more bugs(which I wouldn't know), NewAtlanta's tech support 
has been amazing supporting Weblogic.  On a few cases for us, they recreated 
the bug and had a hotfix for us within a few days.

I'm not sure if Adobe would do that for us, that just seemed the case between 
versions 6.0 and 6.1(which was the last version we used)

We're talking about running on WebLogic, so the points about
ServletExec and .NET are irrelevant (though true). Plus, being that's
it's a new product, BD for WebLogic, you can't guarantee there are
less bugs.

As someone else mentioned, I think what you need to do is best handled
by the OS.  You can probably do something with CF, but it's probably
going to be time consuming and inefficient.  If you're on Linux, you can
use the du command in a script, and call this with cfexecute.  I'm not
sure if there's anything that handy in Windows land...

disk size manager

[Turetsky, Seth]

We just ran out of disk space on a webserver and finding the culprit folder is 
tough.  Since, we don't have direct access to some drives, it would be nice to 
have this running under CF since it can access everything :)
We wrote a simple file explorer in CF to browse and delete files, but I'd like 
to have it auto-recurse through all of the folders and subfolders reporting 
back large ones.  Is there such an app already in CF?

OK, I opened Excel, typed "1" then hit alt-enter, and then typed a "2".
I then saved the document as html, and this was the table it produced:


 
 
  1
2
 
 
 
  
 
 


You can see that it entered a "" to denote the new line.

Then I saved it as a CSV file, and this was the result:

"1
2"

As you can see, it wrapped the cell contents in double quotes, and
simply put in a line break and cartridge return. A double quote in your
value would be escaped as "".

Now, I don't know if the HTML break will work for you, or if you are
doing more of a csv thing, but it is food for thought I guess.

  A place to start:

  Start looking for 16 bit versions of applications that are running.
Such as
  A/V
  scanners, software firewalls, etc.    Most running processes are running
  under a
  system account, so it is time consuming to isolate the offending
  application.

  Next try disabling processes running under "system"  one at a time with
the
  CPU
  monitor running and observe which one(s) make a big difference.
Sometimes a
  re-install of that particular application will do the trick, but most
will
  require upgrading to a 32 bit version of the process.

  In my case, I had to update the F-PROT scan engine to a 32 bit version
and
  that
  solved the runaway issue.

  Good luck!

It now takes about 10-15 minutes to get to the desktop, then another
15 or
so before SQL Server and a few other services get runningCF

to free up resources).

Basically, the "System" process (not System Idle Process) is taking up
all

It is possible that by disabling IE's cache you might be able to stop 
that behavior, but no bets.

I don't think that there's anything you can do on the server side,

cfc causing cf admin to blank out

[Turetsky, Seth]

I'm invoking a cfc I made which creates pdf's based on a query.  For some
reason, it's failing when I send in a sql server query(not really the
question), but it's creating a zero byte pdf.  When I go to check if any
errors are logged, all pages in CF Admin load but are completely blank(no html
in source).  In a few minutes, if I refresh the CF admin page, it's fine.

any ideas?

cfmx 6.0(wish i could upgrade)/win2k 

thanks,
seth

RE: Printing PDF directly to printer using CFMX

What are you generating your pdf's with?

You're right Paul.

>From iText printing help page:

How can I send a PDF file to a printer directly?

Printing is a very platform dependent functionality. On Windows, you can print
a PDF file by executing Acrobat Reader:
String osName = System.getProperty("os.name" );
//FOR WINDOWS 95 AND 98 USE COMMAND.COM
if( osName.equals( "Windows 95" ) || osName.equals( "Windows 98" )){
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("command.com /C start acrord32 /p /h" +
claim.pdf);
}
//FOR WINDOWS NT/XP/2000 USE CMD.EXE
else {
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /C acrord32 /p /h" + claim.pdf);
}

(Code provided by Jasperlan Guela)
Remark: the /h-option suppresses the Acrobat Reader Dialog Box. 

My question: how to do that with CFMX?

Thanx all.

not really, you can use arcobat commandline for printing with or without
iText (though iText is certainly one cool app).

RE: query of query trimming?

[Turetsky, Seth]

Thanks Jerry, I think it must be something fixed in 6.1 then, since we are
running 6.0 here.  I questioned my yesterday's sanity and tried it all again
today, same thing happened.
I'm not sure why there are hesitant to put 6.1 on here, but I did a workaround
by replacing the breaks with 's in the main query, so the QofQ won't strip
anything.  Then because I'm doing pdf generation, I'm going to just replace
them back.  Annoying but works, so at least I can move on.
Thanks again

On cf5 and cfmx 6.1 the string lengths are the same from a direct call and a
qoq call.

I tested against an ntext field, rather than a varchar2(4000)

My test:

SELECT top 1 links2004
FROM judgeprofiles
where links2004 is not null


#len(test.links2004)#
Got a CR
Got a LF


select * from test

#len(test2.links2004)#
Got a CR
Got a LF


The answer on cf5.0:
363
Got a CR
Got a LF

363
Got a CR
Got a LF

The answer on cfmx 6.1:
363
Got a CR
Got a LF

363
Got a CR
Got a LF

Sorry to not find the same answer.

Just a suggestion, have you installed the newest versions/patches of cfmx?

RE: query of query trimming?

It's a VARCHAR2(4000) in Oracle
The lengths change from 100 down to 96.  And yep the queries are the same(just
straight selects), despite one being a query of query.
Weird stuff, sounds like a bug to me

Think anyone could give it a try for me?  Just put some carriage returns at
the start of a field, then have two queries, one pulling it out direct, then
another a QofQ on that one.

What data-type is the object in your db?

What is the len() of that field on your sample direct call record?
What is the len() of that field on your sample QofQ record?

Are you doing anything in your QofQ to change the data in the field itelf? 
Are you sure the record you are getting back for the QofQ is exactly the same
one you are looking at in your direct query?

Just some thoughts,

You can try looping over each character to see if it replaced the
chr(13) or chr(10) with some other character by chance?  I don't know of
any issue with QofQ removing these characters.

 where key = 100



 select text1
 from mainQuery
 where detail_key = 1



PASSWORD="#app_passwd#">
 select * from myView

#replace(subQuery.text1,Chr(13),"","ALL")#

#replace(mainQuery2.text1,Chr(13),"","ALL")#

Just curious as to the best way to work in Java with CF.  Once I've compiled

RE: Create PDF (without CFEXECUTE)

quick and simple answer:
	to create a header for each page, add stuff to your doc, then use:
	section1.endHeaders();

	this adds a page# footer:
	footer = HeaderFooter.init(Phrase.init("Page ",header), true);
	document.setFooter(footer);

  I have used XSL-FO with great success using CF.  It's quite nice in that you
can use CSS syntax for styles and a fairly simple XML markup language for
creating the templates.

  Do a google search for coldfusion and XSLFO, I'm fairly certain there's some
tutorials and code out there for you to use.

RE: PDF on Fly

[Turetsky, Seth]

Before you start looking at this, if you have a Windows server that you can install software on, look into htmldoc, would be much easier than this(at least I think so).

So, take a look here and get the library:
http://www.lowagie.com/iText/docs.html

Here's some sample code in CF utilizing Java and iText, I stripped out a lot of code from this or it would have been much longer(needs cleaning as well), all this does is put an image into a pdf and saves it:




	SELECT *
	FROM mytable



	pdfFile = createObject("java", "java.io.FileOutputStream").init(attributes.save_as);
	PageSize = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.PageSize").init();
	document = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Document").init(PageSize.A4, 0, 0, 0, 0);
	PdfWriter = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter");
	PdfWriter.getInstance(document, pdfFile);

	FontFactory = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.FontFactory");
	Font = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Font");
	BaseFont = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont");
	helvetica = BaseFont.createFont("Helvetica", BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
	regular = Font.init(helvetica, 10, Font.NORMAL);
	bold = Font.init(helvetica, 10, Font.BOLD);
	bbold = Font.init(helvetica, 14, Font.BOLD);
	newfont = FontFactory.getFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, javacast("int",10), javacast("int",5));

	Paragraph = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Paragraph");
	Color = createObject("java", "java.awt.Color");
	Image = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Image");
	Cell = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Cell");
	Element = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Element");

	document.open();

	section1 = createObject("java", "com.lowagie.text.Table").init(2);

	section1.setBorderWidth(0);
	section1.setBorder(0);
	section1.setSpacing(0);
	section1.setPadding(0);
	section1.setDefaultCellBorder(0);
	section1.setWidth(98);

	img = Image.getInstance(javacast("string",myimage));
	img.setAlignment(2);
	newcell1 = Cell.init(img);
	newcell1.setColspan(2);

RE: Weird Images issues...

[Turetsky, Seth]

What's weird is that you can view the source after clicking on an image, so
it's an html page that is loading, not the image.  something is up with your
webserver, at least i think

Ok, would that explain why I can see them in the file browser or when
viewing the page offline??? That's why this is kicking my butt, it just
doesn't make any sense...

It appears that your files are damaged.  I can't open them with Fireworks
either.

Cheers,

Jeff

  Ok, here is some weirdness for you...

  http://www.lcgis.com/STAGE/GlobalImages
 
   

  See the list of images, click one, does it show up...mine don't. No matter
  what I do they do not appear in the browser. However if I view folder in
  Thumbnail mode I can see them all. To boot if I go to the STAGE directory
  and open up Index.htm as a File->Open in IE they show up as well. This
seems
  to be something with IIS and the folder.

  I have set all permissions to full and made sure they were not read only
or
  something. I also checked in IIS and turned on browse to that folder so I
  could see that they were indeed there

  This is a Win 2K3 box running the latest and greatest IIS.

  Any help, any ideas. I have never ever had this happen before

  Thanks,
  Steve
