Re: Two CFQUERY statements?
Sounds like ColdFusion is having problems connecting to one of your databases. Try this: 1) make sure you can "verify" both datasources in your ColdFusion Administrator. 2) make sure you didn't misspell one of the datasource names in your cfquery tags. thanks, eric cobb ecar technologies, llc http://www.cfgears.com Steven Sprouse wrote: > You'll have to excuse me, I'm still sort of a CF novice so I'm not too > familiar with how to use CFTRANSACTION. > > What I was doing was just putting two separate CFQUERY statements at the head > of my document, each with a different name attribute and different data > sources.

Re: Online domain name search tag/tool
The simplest thing to do would be send them to http://internic.net/whois.html and let them look up the domain. The site is run by ICANN, and all it does is look up a domain and tell you if it's registered or available. If it's registered, it gives you some of the public registration information for it. thanks, eric cobb ecar technologies, llc http://www.cfgears.com Terry Troxel wrote: > Coldfusion Tag/Tool for Domain Name searches. > > Is there such a thing that can allow you to let your users search for > possible domain names to register without going to places like godaddy.com > who then show them pricing for hosting, design, Coldfusion, etc. who are > trying to put you the small business out of business (please pardon the > rant). > > Terry > > > > ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Comparisons - Your thoughts
According to this "Performance tuning for ColdFusion applications" post,
you should always use compare() or compareNoCase() instead of the IS NOT
operator, and you should use listFindNoCase() or listFind() instead of
the IS and OR operators.

Re: Comparisons - Your thoughts
While I'll agree that the readability/maintainability factor is
important from a developer's viewpoint, that particular article was
specifically focused on performance and was merely pointing out which
functions were technically faster.
If one function is built to be faster than another function, then that's
how it's going to perform, regardless of whether or not it's easy for
the developer to read.
That being said, I'll have to agree with Brad and Charlie on sometimes
coding what's easiest to read and maintain. You do reach a point where
maintainability can play a larger role than squeezing out every tiny
little millisecond of speed (on most apps).

Re: ecommerce emergency
I know your pain! I was in a similar situation a couple of years ago. I lived in an area where people would have an absolute conniption if you quoted them $1,000 - $1,200 for a CF application. (I once had a client try to argue a price with me because I charged $3 per year more for domain registrations than a competitor...$3 per year! That's $0.25 per month!) I finally moved to an area where people realize that it costs money for technology products and services. They see it as a necessary investment, not an unnecessary expense.

Problems with slashes in JSON
I can't figure this thing out for the life of me, and I know it's got to
be something simple that I'm missing.
Here's what I'm trying to do. I'm using jQuery to hit a CFC and return
data. The CFC actually queries the database, loops through results and
creates list items for each row. I then return the list items to
jQuery, which populates my UL with them. Here's my problems and what
I've done so far:
* returning the data from my CFC as a string causes jQuery to
actually display the html code in the brower, so I literally see
"Eric Cobb".
* returning the data as JSON shows the list items correctly, but my
page is littered with "\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t" at the end of every record.
* I used a regex to clean up all of the line breaks, carriage
returns, and tabs in my CFC before returning to jQuery and that works.
* In every record that contains a slash "/" in the data, the slash
has been replaced with "\\\/".
* Nothing I do can get rid of these slashes. I've tried RegEx,
SerializeJSON(), and JSStringFormat() in CF, and a whole whoost of
jQuery escape(), html(), text(), and replace() functions, and
nothing works.
I think my biggest problem is that I've staring at and fighting with
this thing for too long.
Here's my method:
#Trim(loc.custList.full_name)# -
#Trim(loc.custList.addr_line1)#, #Trim(loc.custList.city)#,
#Trim(loc.custList.state)#
And here is my jQuery call:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#contentdiv').load('myCFC.cfc?method=AJAXgetAllCustomers');
});
So, can someone please tell me how to escape the characters so that I
can get rid of the "\\\/" in my display output? And while I'm on the
subject, surely there has got to be a better way than having to manually
escape every character individually that may cause problems. I
shouldn't have to run regex and whatnot to make everything work. In my
mind, SerializeJSON() (or returnformat="json" for that matter) should
have everything escaped and formatted nicely for jQuery, who should then
know how to parse everything and display is correctly. Am I wrong?

Re: Problems with slashes in JSON
Thanks Brian. That eliminated all of the RegEx I was having to do, but
my closing list tag is now being displayed as "<\\\/li>" at the end of
every list item, and all slashes in my text are showing up as "\\\/".
Any idea on how to fix that?

Re: Problems with slashes in JSON
I originally thought about just parsing the return in jQuery, until I realized what this code was ultimately going to have to do. The items in this list are actually going to wind up having text hyperlinks, form buttons, and maybe even images added to them, so for me it's easier to build it out in CF and just have jQuery display it. Too much JavaScript hurts my head. :) I'm about to the point I'm ready to ditch jQuery and just do what I need to do without trying to be all "ajaxy" with it.

Check for remote CFC call in CF 8
Is there a way, in CF 8, to determine if the current request is calling a CFC that has access="remote"? Basically, I'd like to mimic CF 9's onCFCRequest() method, but only for remote methods. I spent a good portion of yesterday afternoon trying to figure out why my jQuery AJAX call would work for me locally, but break on our staging site. All code was identical in every comparison, and both sites were using the same database so the data was identical as well. Long story short, our staging server had CF debugging turned on, and it was appending the debug info to the end of the json being returned from my CFC call, which then threw errors in jQuery. Locally I have debugging going to ColdFire/Firebug, so I never saw the problem. Anyway, a simple "cfsetting showdebugoutput="false"" fixed the issue. So, rather than having to remember to use cfsetting for every remote method, is there a way I can programmatically figure out if the current request is calling a remote method in CF 8? -- Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:334572 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: cfdot.net
Calling him dishonest is very short sighted on your part (to say the
least!). Has the thought occurred to you that perhaps the reason there
was so much extra code in the .Net example was because he's not a
seasoned .Net developer? I know I certainly wouldn't know the absolute
best way to do something when just transferring over to a new language.
I'm willing to bet there are many seasoned .Net developers who would
make plenty of rookie mistakes when just starting out with CF.
Perhaps instead of jumping to conclusions and making accusations, you
should offer to help him clean up his examples so they are more accurate.

Re: CF Shopping carts
Wait...what? -Your client refuses to listen to you and has rejected your every suggestion. -Your client has no money and refuses to use the free resources already available. -Your client expects you to build a custom site for free. -You agreed to build the site on the hopes that you'll get paid when it takes off. -You don't believe this site will ever take off. -You're unemployed, and are doing this work for free knowing that you'll probably never get paid for it. I think I've found the source of your frustration, and it's not that there isn't a free CF shopping cart... I've been an unemployed, broke, work from home, take what you can get, freelance contractor myself, so I know where you're coming from. (My wife and I both lost our jobs on the same day back in 2005, so I REALLY know where you're coming from!) I've wasted many, many hours on these types of clients in the hopes that one day it would turn into something. What I found, though, was that the ones that wanted everything for nothing to start with will continue to expect everything for nothing even after their business takes off (if it ever does). Even if you're doing work for a friend, they'll always expect the good-ole-boy discount. I can hear it now, "C'mon man, I could outsource this for a third of what you're wanting to charge me. You never tried to charge me this much before!" I also realized that there comes a point where you have to fire some clients. If it's not profitable, then it's a waste of time. Sure, I realize that sometimes you have a $100 electric bill that's due and you need to buy groceries, so you'll do whatever work you can find to get that money. But don't do the work if you don't get the money. Free projects should be done in your free time. The time you waste on the freebie clients would be better spent trying to find paying clients, or cutting your neighbors grass to scrape together the money you need. Trust me, I've been there.

Re: development and testing server
Not only that, let's not forget that Adam (adrocknaphobia) is the main man in charge of all things CF at Adobe, so his direct response to this post instructing Won to use the same key should suffice. I realize some people want to see official documentation in writing, but short of having Ben Forta show up at your office and type the key in for you, getting the "go-ahead" directly from Adam is about as good as it gets. At least it would be around here, anyway.

Re: Need a west coast (US) based CF host
Now() + 3 shouldn't be that hard to implement. ;) (assuming all of
the date/time stamps are being entered via CFML instead of the DB itself)
Just a note, Railo allows you specify the time zone for each site, so if
you want to use a Railo host, it doesn't matter where they're physically
located. Your site can have it's own time zone independent of the
server time zone. (again, assuming all of the date/time stamps are being
entered via CFML instead of the DB itself)

(ot) Eclipse hangs on startup.
Over the last couple of weeks I've noticed that my Eclipse seems to take a really long time to start up. It always hangs at the splash screen forever, then finally it starts loading. Once the loading bar appears, it only takes about 15-20 seconds to load. This morning I timed it and it stayed on the startup screen for almost 7 minutes before it started loading. Once it finally opens up, I can close it an reopen it and it takes less than a minute. But, that initial startup after I log in, reboot, etc.., always hangs at the splash screen for 4-7 minutes. I'm using Eclipse 3.5.2, 64 bit, on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with 4GB of RAM. In an effort to fix the problem, I installed Java version 6, update 21. It just came out last week and is supposed to have some bug fixes aimed specifically at Eclipse. That didn't help anything. I also have Eclipse 3.5.2, 32 bit, on this machine and it takes just as long to start up. Just to see, I set up a fresh blank install of 3.5.2, 64 bit, and it came up with no problems. I've searched the interwebs trying to find a way to tweak my eclipse.ini settings, and so far I haven't been able to find anything that fixes this. I've even restored the eclipse.ini file back to the original and it's still slow. At first I thought it may be a plugin that was causing this, so I uninstalled all unnecessary plugins, but that didn't fix it. I even made sure that my 32 bit and 64 bit didn't have the same plugins installed, and they don't. The only core features they have installed in common are: -Eclipse Data Tools Platform -Eclipse Mylyn -Eclipse Modeling Project So, I'm guess that one of these is the culprit. I'm really not sure, though. Does anyone know if there is any way to tell what's causing Eclipse to hang at the splash screen for so long? Some way to get a behind the scenes look at what's going on? -- Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:335935 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Trying to understand application.cfc...
You should be able to set that variable in OnApplicationStart() with no problems. In fact, as you said, that's the preferred place to set it. You must have something else going on that's causing the problem.

License question about compiled code between Developer & Enterprise
I've got a quick question that we pretty much already know the answer to, but I wanted to get some verification. If we write our application using the Developer Edition of CF, and compile our app. code using the Developer Edition, then take that compiled code and put it on a licensed production server with CF Enterprise Edition, we're not in any type of license violation, are we? We just want to clarify that we don't actually have to compile the code on a licensed Enterprise CF server in order to deploy to production Enterprise CF servers. -- Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336584 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Using ## vs not using ##
According to Adobe, yes. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/coldfusion_performance_04.html Although, I'm sure it's probably negligible.

Sessions persist after server restart.
So, I was working locally on an application today and I needed to restart my CF services. Much to my surprise, after I bounced CF I came back to my application and I was not forced back to the login screen as I would have expected. Rather, all of my session info was still there. I then shut down CF, clicked around in my application to make sure everything was down, then brought CF back up and my session info was still alive in my application. So, I did a little research and came across this (http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/sharedVars_02.html) where it states: /If you use J2EE session management and configure the J2EE server to retain session data between server restarts, ColdFusion retains session variables between server restarts./ Ok, I'm using J2EE sessions, so now I know what's going on. Now, my question is, how do I turn it off? Adobe hints that you can configure the J2EE server to retain session data, but gives no clue as to where or how. All I've found is the checkbox to enable/disable J2EE sessions. Also, is this something that is turned ON or OFF by default? I'm just wondering if I accidentally turned it on, or if it's always been on and I never noticed it. -- Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:337238 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Sessions persist after server restart.
No, the J2EE sessions are persisting between server restarts, just like the documentation says. The docs just don't tell how to turn it off. Adobe hints that you can configure the J2EE server to retain session data, which means that you should also be able to configure it NOT to retains sessions, but there's no mention as to where this configuration is or how to change it.

Re: What version-/source control are you using (if any)?
The "Big 3" out there right now are Subversion, Mercurial, and Git. I personally use Subversion and Git, and they're both good. Whatever you do, stay away from Vault/Fortress from Sourcegear. That's what we're forced to use at work. It's labeled as a VSS replacement, and while it is a little bit better than VSS, it's still pretty pathetic and a waste of money. Within 3 days of switching to it, we were already having discussions about getting rid of it.

(OT) IIS 7 Wonkiness with BlogCFC and cgi.path_info
I just moved my blog over to a new server (Winders 2008). So far all of it seems to be working correctly, except for one page, and I can't figure out what IIS is doing. I'm hoping someone here has run across this or has enough experience with IIS 7 to tell me where to look. For whatever reason, IIS seems to be ignoring the cgi.path_info for my "about" page and process it as a directory. So, for http://www.cfgears.com/page.cfm/About it's trying to find an About directory and throwing a 404 instead processing page.cfm with "About" as a cgi.path_info. The funny thing is, all of the other pages on the site use this exact same url format without any problems. For example, http://www.cfgears.com/index.cfm/CFML works correctly. The only difference in the 2 urls is that one calls index.cfm and the other calls page.cfm. All index.cfm calls work, and all page.cfm calls break. I know that page.cfm is there, I put in a Hey! at the top of it and you can pull it up in the url (http://www.cfgears.com/page.cfm), but http://www.cfgears.com/page.cfm/About still throws a 404. So, what gives? What is it about this page that IIS doesn't want to process cgi.path_info correctly? -- Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:339494 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: (OT) IIS 7 Wonkiness with BlogCFC and cgi.path_info
Wow. Thanks Russ. That wasn't exactly what was wrong, but you put the solution right in front of me. :) (I guess now would be a good time to mention that this is actually a Railo/Tomcat/IIS install? Oops...forgot that in my original post.) In the Tomcat web.xml file there was a section for servlet mappings. Among the entries there, I found this: GlobalCFMLServlet /index.cfm/* So, I said to myself, "Hey, that looks like it wants to process a cgi.path_info variable. I wonder what happens if I add an entry like that for page.cfm?" Once I did that and bounced Tomcat, it all worked correctly. So, thank you for helping me find the answer. I didn't realize this was a Tomcat issue, I would have sworn up and down that the error I was getting was from IIS. Oh well, seems like I've got some Tomcat/IIS issues to figure out. I'll pester the Railo list of that. :) Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com Russ Michaels wrote: > Sounds like you have a similar problem to this > http://russ.michaels.me.uk/index.cfm?mode=search > > The same solution may fix your CF problem as well. > > Russ > > -Original Message- > From: Scott Stewart [mailto:webmas...@sstwebworks.com] > Sent: 24 November 2010 14:04 > To: cf-talk > Subject: Re: (OT) IIS 7 Wonkiness with BlogCFC and cgi.path_info > > > I think the way that BlogCFC handles seo friendly URls involves > /index.cfm/.. > > You'd have to ask Ray about the details > > On Wed, Nov 24, 2010 at 8:56 AM, Eric Cobb wrote: > >> I just moved my blog over to a new server (Winders 2008).
