Search results for query: *

I have a table with a large text field which I use verity to index. This is fine to search on it's own, but the table also contains other columns that I'd like to filter by where this is usually done with a database query. How can I combine them both? Are there best practices? The table would...

I've a problem with trying to output special characters with cold fusion and xsl. All the xsl forums I've seen say to use the following code to output the "<" character: <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;</xsl:text> But cold fusion is giving me the following...

I'm a bit stuck. A cfx tag I bought required the JDK to be updated to 1.4. I installed this from sun and changed the Java Virtual machine path in CF administrator. Unfortunately, I think I put the path in wrong as the CF server won't restart. I can't change it because the CF administrator...

I'm building an intranet reporting tool that creates reports and saves them as word documents. It does this by pasting chunks of html into an empty word document. The problem is that the html loses it's formatting in word as there is no longer a stylesheet to reference. Is there any way of...

I'm trying to set up scheduled tasks using the cold fusion administrator, but I keep get the message: &quot;You need to enter a valid Start Date in order to proceed.&quot; I've tried all date formats but it's not accepting any of them. It won't even accept the default value it gives itself...

I am building an application where the user submits a form. The next page will make several lengthy database calls and run scripts using cfexecute. As there can be a large amount of work for these scripts to complete, I would prefer if the user is immediately redirected to another page while...

I'm using SQL server 2000 connected to CFMX 6.1. SQL 2000 can use table variables, so I wondered if it is possible for cold fusion to pass or receive a table variable with a stored procedure. If anyone knows if this is possible (and how to do it), please let me know. Thanks

My clients have an odd request. They are running CF4.5 on one machine which acts as the web-server for a site. They want users to be able to upload files, but instead of storing them on the same machine, they are to be stored on a different machine on the network. I've tried setting the cffile...

What would be the easiest way to export a sql 2000 database to run on a SQL 7 server? I run sql 2000 myself, but my client only has an sql 7 machine that they want to run a database off. The other problem is that I won't have access to their server over a network connection, so need to find...

Is there any way to use a column name with spaces in it in cfoutput? An example sql statment would be: SELECT [first name] FROM myTable I then want to output the values using something like #myQuery.[first name]# but cold fusion isn't accepting this. I know you can use column aliases, but...

Can anyone recommend a good charting tool to use with cold fusion? I have been using <cfchart>, but it has a limit of 16 dataseries per chart. I need to produce charts with more dataseries, otherwise the <cfchart> tag did everything I needed.

I came across something unusual today when installing an intranet application for a client and wondered if anyone could explain it. The server can be accessed using either it's IP address or machine name fine e.g. http://123.4.5.678:8500/ or http://machine-name:8500/ The problem comes when the...

I've just installed the latest version of CFMX (v6.1 I think) on a clients machine. For some reason the 'Log Files' link (usually under 'Debugging and Logging') hasn't appeared. The actual log files are there (I've checked the directory), but the option to view them in the administrator isn't...

I'm building a website for a client where users request a report from a form. The system will then generate specific tables and graphs and save them as a PDF file which the user can then download. I have never used acrobat before so I would like to know: 1. Can I script acrobat to...

My parent's internet connection has has stopped working and I'm trying to help them (over the phone as i live in another country - so the details aren't too good). The problem seems to be with the dialling the number stage. At first I thought it may be the ISP, but I've got them to try other...
