Re: ActivScan CFX Tag[ENCRYPTED]

It seems to me that the browser will be doing all the hard work

Exactly, and there shouldn't be any difference if it is sent to the browser by CF 5 or 6

all the server side will be doing is handling the file upload part...

Yes, and I don't see what could be not working anymore under CFMX.
For the least, it should not be that difficult to fix it.

To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I wonder if anyone on the list is familiar with a CFX component called

ActivScan. The company I'm working for bought it and had it working on

CF5 and apparently the upgrade to CFMX caused it to stop working. The

company that produced ActivScan said CFMX didn't support some function

and they couldn't do anything about it and then subsequently stopped

producing or supporting ActiveScan. I've been asked to look at the C++

source they bought cheap when they discovered it wasn't being

supported anymore to see if it can be fixed. I'm hoping it wasn't

working due to something that's been changed between the initial

release of CFMX and Red Sky and we can just upgrade to Red Sky and

have it work.

Thanks all,

RE: ActivScan CFX Tag

2004-07-15 Thread Paul Vernon
I have to ask... 

 
If that is what it does why do you need an CFX tag to do it?? 

 
Surely, the source code is split into two separate parts, one the Active X
component that runs in the browser and secondly the code that runs on the
server. It seems to me that the browser will be doing all the hard work and
all the server side will be doing is handling the file upload part...

 
If that is the case then it shouldn't be too difficult to get the CFX part
re-worked or replaced with straight CFML

Re: ActivScan CFX Tag

2004-07-15 Thread Pete Freitag
I can provide some insight, as my company was the one selling this tool.

ActivScan is not a CFX tag.

ActivScan is mostly client side, it was a ActiveX control (MSIE only), 
and we wrote a coldfusion custom tag as a simple way of invoking the 
client side ActiveX control.

The reason we have stopped selling it for now is that we can't justify 
spending the resources to fix it, as it never brought in a lot of 
revenue for us. The reasons for discontinuing it were mostly business 
related not completely technical. We are selling the source code to the 
active x control because several people had asked us to once we 
discontinued it.
