I think that Charlie means the other way around, reversed, back-a-ward to
for-a-ward.  You want to use ListFind()

"ListContains()" returns true of the string exists in ANY of the list
elements: so "1", "2" and "12" are all contained in the list "12".

However "ListFind()" matches the exact element - so "1" and "2" cannot be
found in the list "12" but "12" (obviously) can be.

"Contains" in CF is always a content search, not a match (you can use
"Contains" as an evaluation operator as well).

I think that Charlie means the other way around, reversed, back-a-ward to
for-a-ward.  You want to use ListFind()

"ListContains()" returns true of the string exists in ANY of the list
elements: so "1", "2" and "12" are all contained in the list "12".

However "ListFind()" matches the exact element - so "1" and "2" cannot be
found in the list "12" but "12" (obviously) can be.

list problem, displaying "CHECKED" listboxes

2005-03-23 Thread mayo
I'm creating an admin section where users can select from a series of
checkboxes (for example itemColor or itemSize).

When I examine the db I see there was no problem inserting the data via the
checkboxes. However I'm having problems in the "edit" screen when I want to
show the user the selected items.

Example: user selects white and black

[X]White
[X]Black
[ ]Red
[ ]Green
[ ]Blue

White and Black are inserted correctly. In the edit screen I would like the
user to see the itemColors selected. Everything works well EXCEPT when the
checked item is greater than 10.

For example: user select Polka Dots

1. [ ]White
2. [ ]Black
3. [ ]Red
4. [ ]Green
5. [ ]Blue

12.[X]Polka Dots

It's inserted correctly into the table

itemColors
itemID=123
itemColor=12

However it's displayed as Black, White and Polka Dots

1. [X]White
2. [X]Black
3. [ ]Red
4. [ ]Green
5. [ ]Blue

12.[X]Polka Dots

1,2, and 12 are shown as selected. If 13 Blue Stripes was selected then
1,3, and 13 would be displayed.

The relevant tables are

items (name,desc,etc...) and
itemColors(itemID, itemColorID)

When updates to the colors are made first all rows associated with the
itemID are deleted then new rows are inserted. This works as expected.

The relevant code is below. I just don't see what I'm missing.



CHECKED
>#colorName#







SELECT items.*, itemType.*, categories.*,designers.*
FROM items,itemType,categories,designers
WHERE
items.itemID=#ID# AND
items.categoryID = categories.categoryID AND
items.itemTypeID = itemType.itemTypeID AND
items.designerID = designers.designerID





SELECT *
FROM itemColors
WHERE itemID = #ID#




SELECT *
FROM itemSizes
WHERE itemID = #ID#

Re: If "x" is in a list problem

2004-08-05 Thread Joe Rinehart
listFind() and listFindNoCase() look for exact matches, listContains()
and listContainsNoCase() look for substrings.

A quick way to keep them straight is remember that listContains()
works like the contains comparison operator.

If "x" is in a list problem

2004-08-05 Thread Les Mizzell
I'm using this to preselect checkboxes:

checked="checked"

...but that ain't correct - because it needs to return true ONLY if the 
entire string in the list = "3".

Currently, "37" or "43" would return true as well.

So, for a string of "3,33,43,73" how do I get it to return true for ONLY 
"3"?

I'm a little unclear as to the exact syntax...

There's nothing in your code to indicate why you're getting doubles -
before you run this code, can you CFDUMP the getStates query to make
sure that it's not got the doubles within it?

Oh, and get rid of the double SIZE attribute in the SELECT - either
it's size 1 or it's size 20... which is it?

I don't see anything wrong with your code - I bet the issue is your query.
If you cfdump your query before this code, do you see 2 of each state?

There's nothing in your code to indicate why you're getting doubles -
before you run this code, can you CFDUMP the getStates query to make
sure that it's not got the doubles within it?

Oh, and get rid of the double SIZE attribute in the SELECT - either
it's size 1 or it's size 20... which is it?

drop-down list problem

2004-06-14 Thread Robert Orlini
I have a dynamic dropdown list that gets a statecode from a table and then compares to what is sent via form tag. It displays the state in the tag as selected along with other states that can be chosen in the dropdown. Its all OK, except it displays all the states twice. Any help with the code would be appreciated; here it is:



Selected>#left(trim(statename),15)#  
 


Thanks.

Well, lets draw out your lists, and the problem is obvious.

You search in list2 with a delimeter of ";", so your list looks like...


1
yes,2
no,3
maybe

If you want more, just ask...

I have two lists that I need to compare. List one is a comma delimited
list pulled from a record in the database (1,2,3) List two is comma
delimited but has two values separated by a semi-colon that is an
application variable (1;yes,2;no,3;maybe). The problem I am having is
that I want to compare list1 with the first value in list2, if list1
matches list2 I would like to display the second value of list2.
 
This is the code that I have written:
 








 
This code finds the first element in list1 and list2 and displays the
second value in list2 properly and that is all. It is not displaying any
of the other values because it cannot find them, even though  they are
in list1 and the first value in list2.
 
If anyone can help me out with this I would really appreciate it.
 
Thanks

Help With List Problem

2001-12-07 Thread Double Down

I have two lists that I need to compare. List one is a comma delimited
list pulled from a record in the database (1,2,3) List two is comma
delimited but has two values separated by a semi-colon that is an
application variable (1;yes,2;no,3;maybe). The problem I am having is
that I want to compare list1 with the first value in list2, if list1
matches list2 I would like to display the second value of list2.
 
This is the code that I have written:
 








 
This code finds the first element in list1 and list2 and displays the
second value in list2 properly and that is all. It is not displaying any
of the other values because it cannot find them, even though  they are
in list1 and the first value in list2.
 
If anyone can help me out with this I would really appreciate it.
 
Thanks
