    Searching multiple fields for any/all words from a search string.

    We have an application that includes a people searcher. As people enter text, it searches four different fields (first name, last name, ID, email address) for the text entered. This works awesomely. If I enter "Lawrence", it will find me, along with anyone who has "Lawrence" in their first...

    Trying to Transpose Columns to Rows w/ Field Names

    I'm trying to transpose a query resultset and I'm struggling finding what I'm looking for in Google. I'm developing an in-house application that inventories applications that our division supports. The inventory will include bringing in information from disparate data sources and pushing...

    SQLLDR adding a century to pre-1950 dates

    I've encountered an issue I've never seen before and I couldn't find a solution through Google. I'm using SQLLDR to bring data from some text files, nothing particularly special. The files are CSV with double-quotes where needed. The inbound data appears good. The problem is that dates prior...

    LDAP slow to initialize

    I have an intranet site that uses LDAP for authentication and authorization. I've done this for nearly a decade using ColdFusion and a couple of years with ASP.NET. There's one difference on this site - the initial call to LDAP takes a long time (27 seconds) to validate and complete page...

    Overriding CSS on GridView TemplateFields

    I'm using CSS to set padding for TH and TD elements and it works as advertised. One of the attributes is padding (padding: 0 1em 0 .25em;). This adds a touch of whitespace before and after the text. I'm happy with pretty much all my tables, gridviews, etc. But there's one. Among other data...

    Troubleshooting bound cfselect

    I have a cfselect that's bound to a parent select. The first is a list of countries, the second is a list of schools in the selected country. This works great for most locations that use the page. However it doesn't appear to be working for a number of users in Japan. Thousands of people in...

    Form variable problems with Safari 5.1.5

    I'm having a problem with Safari (5.1.5) not receiving my POSTed form variables. IE 8, FF 19, Chrome 25 all have no problem sending/receiving form variables between these two pages. I searched here and Google, but wasn't able to conjure up the right phrase to find more than a couple of...

    Site slow to connect to database

    I'm working on my first ASPX site - coming in with extensive experience with ColdFusion. We're working on a secure intranet site connecting to an Oracle 10g database. The first page is a search page. They enter their criteria and go to a list page that displays potential matches from their...

    Using the to_date() function with inconsistent string formats

    We're building an intranet site where users are able to upload a spreadsheet that ultimately goes into an Oracle (10g) table. We want to store the date columns from the spreadsheet into date fields. Using the to_date function would be fine if the dates' format was consistent. However, we're...

    Changing className does not work as expected in IE8

    Corporate intranet site where IE8 is the standard browser. We had been using gifs for our buttons - site color for active and gray when inactive. Easy day. I'm in the process of internationalizing the site to translate labels, tool tips, instructions, etc to any one of 15 languages. Rather...

    Conditional hyperlink in a TemplateField

    I'm working on my first ASP.Net site - after many years with ColdFusion - and hit a minor challenge, but not sure how to find the solution. I have a GridView. I've defined a TemplateField on the first column so I can have a link from said column: <a class="hyperlink"...

    Order by question

    I'm reading from a DB2 table (read: not under my control) that's known to be a mess. It's an amalgamation of job assignment, position assignment, and employment status. Since this one table contains three disparate data domains, each time they add a new row, they often add repeating data. For...

    Having problem with Provider trying to connect to DB2

    I'm using the following syntax for my connection: "Provider=IBMDADB2;Database={db};Hostname={host};Protocol=TCPIP;Port=50000;Uid={id};Pwd={pw};" When I run the site from VS2010, I get data back. When I try to run the site from a browser (even on the server) I get this error: The 'IBMDADB2'...

    Form will not submit unless I include an alert

    I'm having an odd JavaScript problem. I've searched Google and this forum, but have not found a solution. function next_page() { document.forms["frm_post"].submit(); } From what I can see, this should submit the form. It does not. However, with this small change, the form will submit...

    Inconsistent responses from CFLDAP

    I've been using CFLDAP for managing logons for six or seven years now and it's been working quite well. We just launched a new intranet site that's being used by considerably more people. Most have had no problems accessing. Some people have had problems accessing and we couldn't identify...

    Would like more information on jQuery

    I *just* started using jQuery for my new ColdFusion app. I've already worked with a couple of solutions, so I'm not looking for something to solve a specific question. Rather I'm looking for a *good* source of jQuery information. I know how to use the Great Google Machine, but I also know...

    Need help developing the CSS for a page

    Haven't been able to figure out the right question to get an answer from Google, and none of my books seems to provide the informaiton I need, so... New request - page with a handful of large "buttons" arranged vertically, all with same width regardless of value. I don't have a problem...

    Trying to detect Citrix ICA Client using javascript

    Not so much in over my head on this as I am working outside my domain (vbScript, ActiveX and Citrix)... We have an intranet site where we identify the person using the workstation - they enter their PIN to confirm there identity and away they go. This same pages has a "this isn't me" link to...

    &quot;Never&quot; use tables for page layout?

    Okay, we've all read that there are few evils as bad as using tables for page layout. Got it. The page I'm currently working on is the classic "C." It's pretty straightforward until I get to the content div on the first page. The first page includes a simple input form. The page background...

    Strange DB connection problems

    I'm setting up another CF site - this is not my first rodeo. However, I'm getting errors that I can't make sense out of, hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I my development environment, I have a connection defined in CF Admin. CF Admin successfully connects, so as expected...
