  • Ask Ben: Converting An XML Document Into A Nested ColdFusion Struct

    Posted on May 2, 2024 at 1:59 PM

    Hey Ben, I'm trying to make create a loop of some kind over YouTube's playlist XML. Have you ever tried to parse that out into a neat query or loop? That's something the CFM World would love to have! https://dev.lucee.org/t/pulling-a-youtube-playlist-xml-into-a-query-result/13814... read more »

  • Ask Ben: Handling Errors With ColdFusion CFError

    Posted on Oct 4, 2013 at 5:04 PM

    Even more bizarre, I set it back to passThrough and even encapsulated my forced error for testing (CFLIF) inside a CFTRY and it still displays the standard CFM error... ----------------------------------- Invalid token ( found on line 2 at column 11.

  • Ask Ben: Handling Errors With ColdFusion CFError

    @Ben, Yes, I tried this, but for some reason I only get the stock simple CF error screen, not my custom one as dictated by the CFERROR tag. This is what I used instead of modifying web.config %windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe set config "My ColdFusion Website Name/" -section:system.w... read more »

  • Ask Ben: Handling Errors With ColdFusion CFError

    I was having a similar issue. Seems that in IIS7 you can set the error page globally by clicking on your server name in the left pane, then going to Error Pages, and specifying a local CFM of your choosing. What this does is bypass CF and run the error processing page, but without the error scope (s... read more »

  • Geocoding A User's Location Using Javascript's GeoLocation API

    This is awesome. Looking for a way to include code like this in the head of a page with a form and keep updating two hidden form elements with the GPS x y until the form is posted. I found this, but it doesn't appear to work for me. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/993207... read more »

  • Ask Ben: Processing Files With CFThread In ColdFusion

    Posted on Jul 23, 2013 at 10:47 AM

    As a follow-up, I realize now that although I am using cfthread on the action page, none of the session var code is inside the cfthread blocks -- that's just for image processing. So, this issue really has nothing to do with cfthread. I was having trouble figuring out why setting session.onerecordI... read more »

  • Ask Ben: Processing Files With CFThread In ColdFusion

    Posted on Jul 22, 2013 at 4:56 PM

    Hey Ben, I am trying cfthreads for the first time and am using it for a similar situation you started with above, namely file uploads. However, my action page is actually receiving multiple files from a java file uploader. It can send a whole folder of files, and I'd like to ensure every file gets... read more »

    @Bruce Holm, > So I think sending two parts is a minimum. > Giving the user the option of opting for > text only saves bandwidth [and storage] How does sending two cfmailparts with both an HTML version and a text-only version save bandwidth and storage?

  • Tim Cracked The GMail - CFMailPart Puzzle!

    Posted on Mar 15, 2010 at 10:06 AM

    Ben, I've been using the straight type="HTML" for a while, and every once in a while someone replies back with "email was empty." Others complain that the email was entirely on a blue background and they couldn't read the text. So I am considering parting the mail and hoping this fixes the issue f... read more »

I believe in love. I believe in compassion. I believe in human rights. I believe that we can afford to give more of these gifts to the world around us because it costs us nothing to be decent and kind and understanding. And, I want you to know that when you land on this site, you are accepted for who you are, no matter how you identify, what truths you live, or whatever kind of goofy shit makes you feel alive! Rock on with your bad self!
