Ugh... brain fart time...Awhile back I made a dropdown list using either <CFSELECT...> or maybe it was just a <SELECT...> control.  That isn't important tho...What is important is I put in some text into the drop down list that said something like "Select an Item".  As soon as the user clicked on the control the instructional text "Select an Item" disappeared and was replaced with the contents of the dropdown list.Problem is I can't remember how to add that "helper" type of text to the dropdown control.I've added this OPTION tag below the CFSELECT but the helper text is now included as part of the selectable drop down items and I don't want that.<CFSELECT NAME="ContactType" REQUIRED="Yes" QUERY="ConQry" DISPLAY="ConName" VALUE="ConType" TABINDEX="1" SELECTED="#MyContactType#"  SIZE="1" QUERYPOSITION="below" style="font-size:11px;background-color:##FFFFCC;" MESSAGE="Please select the method of contacting PERSI">     <OPTION VALUE="

Hello everyone! OK this is my first attempt at connecting a database to my website. I found some really good info on how to do this through how-to videos via YouTube.Ok lets get to business. I'm still early in the process but I do have a database set-up and the simple PHP pages are good (still early though). Now, I need to try and confirm that the database and page(s) are linked - or connected so anyone that fills an account will be going right to the database. Well, here's the problem: When I insert this PHP script into the "sign up" page it give me this (right below here: Take note that I made a script to purposely shows that quote with this script...it was suggested: Ok, when the PHP file above (i.e. trying to connect to the database, I assume) pops-up on login/create account page, above is what I see...when I remove that specific PHP from the Login page, it looks fine. So please, if anybody has an idea on what may be causing this please share your thoughts. I suspect it's because t

I'm fairly certain I found a scope bug. I'm using CF11 and FW/1 and I have the following query -- the tag works, the cfscript equivilent triggers a "Table named rc.qSignerLinks was not found in memory" exception:/* works*/<cfquery name="local.qResultSet" result="local.qResult" dbtype="query">    SELECT        *    FROM        rc.qRSRecipient    where        [email] = <cfqueryparam value="#session.user.getEmail()#" cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" maxlength="50" /></cfquery>/* exception */<cfscript>    local.qObj = new query();    local.qObj.setDBType("query");    local.qObj.setSQL("        SELECT            *        FROM     &nbs

I can't access the ColdFusion collections from the CF Admin. I went to access solr directly through the jetty server interface (127.0.0.1:8987/solr/) and the screen is blank (web page never loads - browser just keeps trying to load it). Looking at log files, everything seems ok with solr - there are no startup issues recorded in the jetty log files (it ends with stating that solr and PDFgServlet are loaded and available) or any of the CF log files.The server is a Windows 2012 R2 box with latest patches. CF 11 Enterprise with latest patch (I rolled back to patch #3 just to see if it was a recent CF patch that caused the issue, but no change). 96 GB of RAM and Xeon processors leads be to believe it isn't a resource issue (RAM and CPU resources aren't being taxed in the slightest). The only other software on the server is SQL Server 2016 Web Edition.I tried this on another server with the same configuration, same problem. I tried a 3rd server with a slightly different model Xeon processor

I understand that Coldfusion try to cache queries up to a maximum n. of queries as specified in the admin page.How can I know if the query cache is working too much, because the max number is too low?Or if the memory used by query cache is too high?I use standard Edition. Do I need some monitoring tools (seeFusion,fusionreactor etc), or I can have this information from admin api?I only have VisualVM, but I guess it's difficult to understand it from raw java threadsthank you

I created a report using SSRS, SQL Server Report Services.I would like to know does ColdFusion Support SSRS report just like ColdFsuion Report Builder?Your help and information is great appreciated,Regards,Sourises,

I am trying to add an existing report to a main report. after I choose the file and hit save, I get this message: Object: TfrmWizardTemplate, frmWizardTemplate Exception;'String) into type (Boolean) when evaluating instruction OperEqual ($0' is not a valid integer value. I am new to this and don't know what this means. I am able to recreate the subreport as a new subreport and it works. I really don't want to create a new subreport everytime I need to do the exact same thing.

Hello,I see there is a helpful attribute encrypt for cfmail in ColdFusion 11. But I have version 10. Is there a work around to encrypt cfmail messages?Thank you,Josh

Hi everyone, I'm basically at my wits end. Hopefully someone here can help.I have a dedicated server at Rackspace that includes CF 11 since one of our divisions uses it. It used to be CF9, it's been 11 since we upgraded to a new RHEL 6 around server last September. It took a couple attempts but I got everything installed and up and running. AND could access Coldfusion administrator (used it to set up DBs, etc). On Monday of this week the developer who manages the web site for the division using CF contacted me saying he was having an issue with emails being sent from his site. And could I check the administrator page for it. Well, I have now spent about 90% of this week trying to get access...I've tried all sorts of things, changing where CF thinks the CFIDE folder is, what port things are running on, whether I'm tunneling through Apache (v. 2.2.15) or using the built in server, all sorts of things. It seems to have something to do with the actual access to /CFIDE/administrator/ direct

To anyone who is using a CGI webserver (like Apache), USCERT recently released a notice of a security vulnerability.  It's worth checking out:http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/797896HTH,^_^

Just playing around with including javascript templates into my CF code when I came across this issue.I have two files I'm testing with.  The javascript file I want to include is called KDL.js.  The contents are listed here:<script language="javascript">  function KDL_Test(MyString) {  var MsgString = MyString + "KDL Rocks";  alert(MsgString);  }</script>The other template is called KDL.cfm, and it's contents:<CFINCLUDE TEMPLATE="kdl.js"> <script language="javascript">  KDL_Test("I am here. ");</script>This works fine as I get my alert window whenever I execute the code.What I don't understand is why doesn't the javascript alert window get called when I use javascript to include the javascript template?<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="kdl.js"></script><script language="javascript">  KDL_Test("I am here. ");</script>This code doesn't generate any error messages but I do

Hi All,We would like to inform you of the new API management capabilities, that the latest version of ColdFusion (2016 release) brings to your organisation.  You probably are already leveraging web services within your architecture at a rapidly growing pace as other organisations are, and this new functionality would allow management of these services as APIs in a much more efficient and secure way. Here is a quick background of the advantage that API management capabilities can provide you with. Organisations today are unlocking the value of their data, IP and services by sharing the same with their ecosystem (customers, internal teams, partners, vendors, suppliers etc.) at a furious pace– often over mobile networks. With ColdFusion (2016 release), we now add the capability to not just build and share REST/SOAP services easily we will now allow you to manage, monitor, regulate and secure these services easily. Our research shows, once an API is written, the next questions, that a

Hello, I just installed CF2016 Developer to make a test application and found that come with few Demo Databases to work with but I didn't found demo templates which uses these DBs... where can I get them?I didn't installed the Builder yet because the license is only for 30 days, and I will only have enough time to work on it in few weeks, but I would love to put something to run to make sure all the installation is ok and start to getting used to the new CF.I worked for 10 years with CF but I didn't touch anything since 2008, and really would like to comeback to CF and learn all the new stuff released on the last 10 years. I'm working with C/C#/C++ in the last decade so I need to re-learn lots of stuff.I need help to setup the enviroment and make it run, then I can move foward easily I think... with a simple demo application working will help me a lot.thank you!

Download Adobe ColdFusion free trial | Adobe Coldfusion (2016 release) This page always leads to this https://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/download-trial/form.perpetual.action reporting a 403.Any Adobe folks watching this forum?  Can you help?

The following query keeps aborting in Coldfusion:SELECT ID, BusinessName, dba, BusinessPhone, FEIN, CSLB, WCRenewalDate, WCCarrier, CACarrier, CANumber, CARenewalDate, GeneralLiabilityCarrier, HealthInsuranceCarrier, HealthInsuranceRenewal, GeneralLiabilityRenewalFROM PProspectORDER BY BusinessNameThe query runs just fine if I use it within the phpMyadmin mySQL interface, but when I try to use it within a CFQUERY tag, it fails every time. I tried all of the field names within a CFQUERY individually, and they all work except for the HealthInsuranceRenewal and GeneralLiabilityRenewal fields. The other two date fields (WCRenewalDate and CARenewalDate) work just fine. All of the date fields are configured the same way in mySQL -- type = date and default = NULL.Any idea why this is happening?
