Hi there,
I have a very simple CF app that is using an MS Access 2000 file as the
datasource. The app works fine on my system, but when it is uploaded to the
hosting provider, I get an "Operation must use an updateable query" error on a
page that inserts information from a form.
It's just a s

Hi,
I am doing a proposal for a client ATM who has a web site that is currently
getting about 6 page views per second in peak time.
Do you think it will be possible to handle the load with a single CF/HTTP server
running Linux and a separate DB server running MySQL? All images will be stored

Hi everyone,
I am trying to implement a user registration system. I have done this before for

particular client wants to have a "save password" checkbox on the registration

Yes.
You should set up a variable (preferably in your application.cfm) that sets a
random number and append that to all your URLs, eg:

Bear in mind that there is a definite performance penalty in turning this
feature on.

If you just want to be able to go back like when you use the "back" button in
the browser, do this:
This will cache the query for five minutes.

Yeah, you have to put javascript literal strings inside quotes otherwise
javascript interprets it as a variable. Try this:

True enough, but if you know enough CF to use session variables why would you
not know what the application.cfm file is?

How did you set up session scoped variables without using the application.cfm
file?
Normally you need a tag
in your application.cfm file to turn on session variables.

This won't work if you are using CF's session management because you don't
specifically set cookies - it either uses CFID and CFTOKEN stored as a cookie OR
as a URL argument. The expiration of the cookies is set by ColdFusion and is
tied to the session timeout val
