Re: High school algebra problem

Hmmm... would it possible to just use the cfdirectory tag's list action on the root directory, with recurse=yes, type=file, and filter attribute? If all of the file names are of a consistent format, you could probably just find the right file with that one tag, knowing the property number.

OK, sorry about that. I thought you were trying to locate files at the file system level, and not via HTTP. In that case, go with the mod suggestion. That'll get you there. Problem is, I don't have access to the server other than to reference it. They have a server that hosts the photographs,

In reading through this thread, it appears as though one of your lists (not clear whether it's the short or long list) is sourced from database, and the other not. But if you've got one list of key column values in a CF List var, then you should be able to query the database to pull out

As long as you have some separation.. [code examples snipped] One of the strengths of ColdFusion (and, indeed, other languages of its ilk) is that you don't have to separate your input interfaces from your back-end processing, and even the response display. There are sound reasons for

Absolutely. In 100% agreement there. Though the invocation of the CFC can still live in the multi-function form template. allthough most here would aregue that your business logic should at least be in a separate CFC so that the code is re-usable.

MS SQL and cfqueryparam slow-down

We've been profiling our MS SQL traffic, and we're seeing the occasional spike in execution times related directly to the operations that CF perform in relation to the cfqueryparam tag in getting table column details. The problem crops up only on cfquery tags where cfqueryparam is used for
