Does anyone use CVS or Subversion (or any type of version control) within their Web Application development workflow? I'd like to know what the alternatives are for integrating version control into a web dev workflow. At present we have 3 servers: dev, test, production. We aren't allowed to have...

Does anyone know if verity search indexing is at all influenced by or dependent upon client variables? We had a situation where the default client storage mechanism was registry, which created problems because the registry was increasing to the point of using up all the disk space on the server...

I've got a problem with GetImageSize working on some photos. All my photos are jpgs and it works fine on most of them, but there are a few where it's obviously not returing values for $dimensions (the value should be something like 'width="300" height="400"). $size =...

I'm trying to do an update and insert, in both cases I've got to do a select on the table first, which works. But when I come to do the update and insert queries they don't do anything. I'm calling mysql_connect each time (any problem with doing this? my host doesn't have persistent...

I am using W2k and I've got perl running with IIS. I've just used ActivePerl's ppm3-bin.bat to install a couple packages and it seems that the DBD::mysql package isn't being recognized by my blogging app, although the other package I installed is recognized. All installs reported success. Any...

I'm looking for a way to set up custom extensions so that for instance instead of index.htm, I can have page.go or similar. Can anyone explain how this can be done within IIS (or otherwise), or at least point me in the right direction? Is this what ISAPI filters do? Thanks in advance! The New...

I notice that a common convention among many ISPs and free hosts is to give out URLs for personal homepages that look like this: http://www.hostname.com/~foldername I was wondering where that comes from? Is there some special significance that IIS applies to the ~ or is it just one of those...

I've posted this question but no replies yet, so I thought I would post again with a different subject in case that is a bit clearer. I've heard these referred to as 'clean' URLs. Basically the idea is to get rid of the filename?querystring combination and replace it with what look like folder...

I need to set a website up to handle what looks like a folder path and call a specific file, passing the folder path. That probably sounds more complicated than it is. Let me give an example: If passed a URL such as: http://www.example.com/article/11357 I want IIS to call the file index.cfm...

This is a really odd problem I was wondering if anyone else has encountered it or has any ideas what might be happening. I have 4 servers, on one of them when I go to open Internet Services manager it tells me it cannot connect to the server it is running on. It can connect to all the other...

Hi I have heard it's not good to have a dot(.) in a folder name (this is a folder that will be used for housing web pages on a web server if that makes a difference). But I have seen people do it and I can't detect any problems caused by it. Is there some valid reason for not letting dots(.)...

I am writing jsp pages and serving them with tomcat, I trying to apply the fusebox methodology (I'm used to using it with coldfusion, and I'm trying to adapt it to jsp), so I've got a switch statement in my index.jsp page which looks at a url variable and decides which content page to load. The...

I am just starting on a new site developed in jsp, and I will be needing to find a good jsp host (not a reseller). I would prefer Tomcat + MySQL + Linux, since that will be my preferred development environment, but a great host is more important than matching my environment (although I would...

When I try to connect to the internet using kppp or try querying the modem through kppp's 'setup > query modem' option I get the message that the 'modem is already in use'. But it's not, I have even tried picking up the phone to be sure. I have also got a network card installed (haven't quite...

I recently upgraded my HP Pavilion to W2k and my latest problem is, in order to get my CD Drive to work with CDs created with Adaptec DirectCD and EasyCD I have updated W2K with SP2. The CD Drive works great now (well, after I spent several hours removing some software and drivers and...

We have a strange problem here. Links on a .cfm page pointing to software executables are not downloadable. If you click on the link nothing happens. If you right-click "save as..." the dialog box appears, but never turns into the file chooser so you can choose where to download the...

Is there a way to pass javascript variables to coldfusion? I want to get info like screen size and color depth and put them into a stats database (which also counts hits to my website). I can get some of the info I want to gather from coldfusion (like user_agent) but the rest I think I will have...

I heard ColdFusion works well with PHP. Does anyone know more about this? I don't know so much about PHP but am interested in learning more. Does ColdFusion actually parse the PHP code itself or does it have to hand it off to a PHP server/parser (ie. do you also have to have a PHP server or...

I am trying to write a coldfusion query to extract info from an MS Access97 database, something like: <cfset today=DateFormat(Now())> <cfquery=&quot;get_todays_records&quot; ...> SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE date = '#today#'> I have the format of the field 'date' set to medium date, so if I...
