2006-12-04 Thread Jeff Howard
Hey all, I've not used this control before but I was wanting to use it for a document control application I am developing. I am having an issue with however that I'm hoping someone can help with. My tree is either expanded or collapsed but I can't seem to get it to work like a true tree

Here is a flash form way of how AS Fusion handled documents: http://www.asfusion.com/projects/fileexplorer/ I use it to manage my file directory easier than Wndows Explorer for my web related tasks. Teddy On 12/4/06, Jeff Howard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey all, I've not used this control

Jeff, a couple places to start to help would be to ask what version of CF you are using, and if CFMX or above, whether you are using the format=Flash or the older (default) java applet-based approach. Better still, though, have you tried the samples that are provided with CF in the Getting

Thanks. I'll take a look at this and see if it suits my needs. The documents aren't actual files but stored in a DB and displayed in a browser page. That's why I was trying to use the cftree control and a query to mimic a real file system. I did however figure out what my problem with the

Jeff, As for the CFTree not expanding or expanding, the example that I sent you does both and allows for CFTree to populated dynamically in a flash form from a database. So in short, CFTree does have the technology. Teddy On 12/4/06, Charlie Arehart [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jeff, a couple

Thanks Charlie. I'm using CFMX 7. I was using Ben Forta's book and Adobe's online documentation to try and understand the control and neither mentions any issue with using flash format. I experimented with using different formats and found that it works fine in html and xml format. I

I realize you're responding to Teddy's note and not mine, but when you say Apparently if you use cftree in flash format the folders don't expand or collapse, I have to interject in disagreement. The example I showed did use a Flash tree and did have expanding folders. In fact, on closer

Since I can't tell if you're going to respond to my later note, do you realize there is no issue with using Flash format? It does support folders and their expand/collapse. If you're saying that you're happy with the other formats, that's cool. Just want to make sure no one concludes that the

Ok Charlie, this is where you can just go ahead and call me an idiot. I just got back from a late lunch and read this and I tried your example. It worked fine. My problem was user error and the sad thing is I was the user. Apparently in Flash format you must click the arrow next to the folder

That sounds more like a UI error. Wonder why our Flash developers didn't think like that. Makes since to click on the folder and see it open up. Precia On 12/4/06, Jeff Howard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok Charlie, this is where you can just go ahead and call me an idiot. I just got back

Yeah, I'm with Precia saying it sounds like a mistake on the flash form UI designer's part. Anyway, as for bashing, you shouldn't hear any of that here. We've all been there. I myself may press when I sense my point isn't being heard (as in this case), but it's all in the hope of helping solve the
