Surely we can't be the only ones who are disappointed with the newest charting engine in CF11?  Yes, ZingCharts can be cool and the plethora of style options gives us total freedom to build the perfect chart.  However, that is also the root of the problem!  Since CF8, CFCHART has been adequate for our needs.  It produced good looking chart images and was just flexible enough for us to produce what we needed while staying simple enough for us to put together quickly and move on in development.  This has been true up through CF10....We just installed CF11 on our test server and it has DESTROYED every chart we produce using the same code we've had in place for years. Custom chart colors: gone.  Readability: hit or miss.  3D angles and depths: changed.  Proper fitting of images in pages: gone.  Legends specifically told to hide: now showing, and showing incorrectly.  Labels: FUBAR.What the hell?!  Who was in charge of the backward comp

How to organize single page app navigation with JQuery and ColdFusion 2016?

0down votefavoriteI have started my new single page application. So far I was able to create login/authentication process and build the templates for the Home.cfm page. While looking around the web I see that JQuery can provide navigation template for single page app. My current code is old fashion and here is what I have. So in root folder I have index.html and here is content of that page:<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=Login.cfm" /> </head> <body></body> </html>You can see the url in meta tag redirects to Login.cfm. First thing I would like for my website to show only web site name instead of what I have now:https://example.com/Login.cfmAfter user entered Username and Password in Login.cfm I will process authentication with Auth.cfc where I check user credentials. If they successfully pass that step I lead them to Home.cfm. This page is main page of my SPA. Then my u

Upgraded to Coldfusion 2016 - won't read .css or image files

Hi,We just installed Coldfusion 2016 on our Dev server, which was previously running Coldfusion 10.The includes work, database connectivity works, but it will no longer read .css files or image files, and I would guess any sort of static includes.For example running this code on the Dev (CF 2016) vs.our live server (CF 10):<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /><title>Untitled Document</title><link rel="stylesheet" href="test.css"  type="text/css" /></head><body><cfinclude template="includes/test/text.cfm"><img src="includes/test/banner_index.jpg"><img src="banner_index.jpg"></body></html>Works as expected on the live server but on Dev the cfinclude works but the css is not applied (and I assume read) and the images show up as broken links.In fact, the direct link to the image in a URL returns an "internal server error" messag

cfdocument processing is very slow for text with RTL (Right To Left) direction

In my application an event gateway is used to generate PDF files (more than one lakh , 100000) for Arabic texts and English text. During this process we noticed that it is taking very long time to generate Arabic PDF files compared to English one. Say , when English PDF took few seconds Arabic PDF took few minutes.Have any one came across the same issue ever ? I feel that when text direction is changed (from LTR to RTL) it might be taking some more time time to generate. Any thoughts or suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.Also , we noticed that generating PDF for RTL texts is comparatively faster in CF16 than CF9. But ,at the moment , our client dont want to upgrade to CF16 from the existing CF9.

Issue with scope variable?

Hi everyone,I'm having an issue with a certain variable, that is within the scope of my CFOUTPUT.My variable, TEMPWHO, is not being run under the CFQUERY.If I put it outside of the output query, it will run, but nothing will show (since its a variable)However, when I put it inside of the CFOUTPUT query (as shown below), it gives me the error: 'VARIABLE TEMPWHO is not defined', and thus, won't be able to query the data in CFQUERY.Is there anyway to get around it?

Restrictions on number of cookies?

I know there are restrictions on the number of cookies that you can add to a browser, I can't remember the numbers from my tests a while ago, but I think it started to run into trouble at around 150.I have an issue where I am trying to delete 57 cookies but the browser goes into a loop, and then resets the connection, this is over HTTP. If I switch it to HTTPS, using HTTP/2 it works with no problems, but I don't want to have to rely on the HTTP/2.If I lower it a little bit I can get around 50 to work, but if I add other cookies or increase the loop to 57 I have the problemIs this a restriction in the browser or is there anything I can do in the CF admin to increase capabilities?This is how I'm doing it. Maybe there is a better way to just tell it to destroy ALL cookies. Although I also worry now about other parts of the site where I create cookies.** After posting this I went back to my local Win 10 development setup and tested it again, I found that I could delete well over a 100.

Sanitize a Query with Dynamic Table Name

Hi all,I inherited an application and am stumped on sanitizing a dynamic query that is being flagged on a vulnerability scan.It starts with a CFINVOKE that passes parameters including tablename, column_names, conditionals.The function invoked then executes the query something to this effect...<cfquery name="updateMe" datasource="#myDBsource#">  UPDATE #arguments.tablename#  SET ...  WHERE #arguments.conditionals#</cfquery>Usually I would use the <cfqueryparam value="#arguments.tablename#" cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" maxlength="17"> in the conditional, but not sure how to handle when the dynamic part is the actual table name, column name, or conditionals.Thanks in advance for any help.

Cfparam question

Hi,I am using cfparam in the following fashion.<cfparam name="sort_col" default="FirstName" type="regex" pattern="((?i)FirstName|LastName|mEmail|mTelephone)">Basically I am trying to whitelist the sort_col variable to one of these in the pattern. Later in my code values come in from a form where I set this value. My assumption was that if i tried to set it to something other than one of the values in the pattern then it would crash out. This doesnt seem to be the case though. It gets set to whatever comes in via the form. Can anyone confirm this?Regards,Paul
