OT: VBscript problem getting user information

2002-01-13 Thread Reed Powell
What little hair I have is going fast. Below is a piece of VBscript I copied off of the MS site, but it dies with errors relating to the WSCRIPT object. All I want to do is to get the user's authenticated domain and username. When it finally works, I'll put that info into a couple of hidden form

Thanks for the idea, but this is client-side scripting, not server-side, that I'm doing. -reed Date: Sun, 13 Jan 2002 23:34:35 -0500 From: "David Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: VBscript problem getting user information Message-ID: <01c19cb4$c4ece3b0$[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I think in A

OT: Setting up IIS to parse domain name?

2002-02-18 Thread Reed Powell
Well, we're trying to move into the 20th century finally, by moving our shared Intranet CF/webserver box from NT4 and WebsitePro to Win2K and IIS. I'd like to try and make it a "better world" for the users as well, but I'm stumped. On the NT4/WebsitePro server we have each site setup as a virtua

[sot] SQL Server 200: Replication, pointer to good discussion list

Hello all!  Does anyone have an opinion (what a loaded question) as to a discussion list focused on MS SQL Server that's on the caliber of CF-TALK? My question at hand deals with possible scenarios for doing SQL Server 2000 database replication over the internet.  In my new job I've inherited a pr

I think that the last quote you show is a holdover from the old pre-MX documentation.  I asked this exact question to Ben F at the last Devcon prior to MX's initial release (I guess that would be 3 cons ago), and his unequivocal response was in agreement with the first 2 quotes you listed - much to

HTTPS: what factors disable it?

Once again I'm in slightly new territory.  Never had to worry about https in the past, everything was inside of the corporate network and no one really cared.  Now I'm in the real world and... I have a site with a secure area that works fine when I test with a simple HTML file - in other words, th

Integrating CF with ASP/SSI code?

2004-05-26 Thread Reed Powell
Hello everyone, here's the situation:  I've inherited a site that is built with ASP, using a lot of SSIs for those parts of each page (top nav area, left nav area, etc) that are common to all pages.  Most of the site is not dynamic, and the SSIs are just apparently used so that the common code is k

Webhosting and DNS connections to external databases?

HI everyone - I recently signed up with CrystalTech, based to a large extent on the good things I've heard about them here and in the CFDJ survey. However, there is a quirk that took me by surprise... With other hosting outfits that I've used, I had the ability to setup DSNs that pointed to extern

Barney, >From reading your post, your solution sounds more like a global UDF whose methods are called with the data stored in the client scope than a true flyweight pattern (e.g., a shared, type-specific object for all users). But after reading this thread we were testing some ideas. All of o

Simon, It might help to at the point in the page where you no longer need the query named queryName. But I've been using CF since version 2 and never had that error.  You have a REALLY big query (maybe the selection criteria could be more specific) or a really small JVM memory space (increasing

RE: Losing Form Scope

2004-09-25 Thread Reed Powell
From your code segment it looks like you didn't define an enctype, so its probably defaulting to using URL variables instead of FORM fields. Try dumping the URL scope And see if your fields show up. To fix, try putting enctype="multipart/form-data" into the FORM tag and see what happens. -r
