Hello, I'm using XSL to format a large XML set I get from a webservice. So far it's been working great but I need to format the date so that is looks something like this: Sunday 05/21/2006 8:00 PM rather than this: 2006-05-21T20:00:00.0000000-04:00 I know you can format dates in the XSL but I have no idea how and all the info I can find on the net is for XSL savvy people. Which I am not. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's what I have as an xsl. Note that eventDate is the param I need to format.

Hi, After changing the maximum number of connections to 1, I can no longer enter the coldfusion administrator. He allows me to enter the password, and then continues, but after showing only the top frame on the left, the coldfusion service hangs. I use coldfusion mx 6.1 on windows 2003 server and IIS. Kind regards, Thomas

Hi, I'd be grateful if somebody could please help me out with this problem. I actually want to write the following using the IIF statement: <cfif temp gt 0> <cfset label = "Over"> <cfelseif temp lt 0> <cfset label = "Under"> <cfelse> <cfset label = "-"> </cfif> Note If I output the variable label using the cfif, cfelseif and cfelse, it gives me the correct output, i.e. either "-", Over, or Under. I tried the following to rewrite the above statement using the iif function: <cfset label = iif(temp eq 0,DE("-"),(iif(temp gt 0,DE("Over"),DE("Under"))))> Now, when temp eq 0, it works fine. However, when temp is lt 0, it throws me an error message saying variable Under is undefined. And when temp is gt 0, I get the same error message, but in this case it says variable Over is undefined. However, if I replace Over and Under by 1 or 0 (i.e. integers) it works perfect! Any idea how to get the output either Over or Under using the iif

Ive started writing the 'hitTest' code for the game, i wasnt sure how, since i hadnt' tried it before- but after a short tutorial it's simple enough. However, i am running into problems. Currently, my stage is set up with a ship, that fires bullets, at the top of the stage, i have a long movie clip that will act as a 'wall', when the bullets collide with the wall they should stop moving, and 'blow up'. I have my animations, and all the fun stuff down- but my hit test isnt working one bit! here is the code for the hit test- it runs in my main _root enterframe loop. thanks.

[ flash source file I created a movieclip MCA. there are 4 embedded movieclips within MCA. I hope the button " Next" to control the movieclip "slide2" within MCA to play. but I failed. it doesn't play. what's wrong ? by the way, the first frame within "slide2" is set to "stop". this is important for me. I need this. the code is as follow, ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// _root.btn_next.onRelease = function() { _root.mca.gotoAndStop(2);// movie "MCA" go to the 2nd frame to show "slide2" _root.mca.slide2.gotoAndPlay(2);//hope to control movice clip "slide2" within "MCA" to play }; could you help solve the issue ? thanks

Hi, Some of my movies have what I consider "gratuitous" tooltips. The problem is mostly in Windows when I record opening files. The file properties pop us and just get in the way of what I'm trying to demo. Is there any way to not record them or turn them off? Thanks! Trudie

Hi. All code is from the 1st frame of the main timeline. In my .swf I attached several instances of a MC to the main timeline: for (k = 1; k <= nTotalMCs ; k++) { attachMovie("id1", "mc"+k, _root.getNextHighestDepth(), this["o"+k]); trace (this["mc"+k]); //returns _level0.mc1, _level0.mc2,..., _level0.mc3 } I have a programatic tween and I have added listeners to handle events related to it. This is one of them: oListener01.onMotionChanged = function():Void { for (j=1; j<=nTotalMCs; j++) { trace (["mc"+j]); //returns mc1, mc2,..., mcN trace (this["mc"+j]); //returns undefined trace (this._parent["mc"+j]); //returns undefined trace (_root["mc"+j]); //returns _level0.mc1, _level0.mc2,..., _level0.mcN } }; I need to access those MCs from the listner, but I can't use _root because the .swf this is in is going to be loaded by other .swfs, so I need to use relative paths. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to get the correct relative path? Thank you in advanc

Hi all I finally got the Ref Cursor stored procedure working but am stuck on the following. I have this package body: CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY PACK_MYCURSOR AS PROCEDURE REFCUR ( theuserid IN OUT users.user_id%type, userfirstname OUT users_TableRows) IS BEGIN OPEN userfirstname FOR select * from users where user_id = theuserid ; END REFCUR ; END PACK_MYCURSOR ; / Now this is working fine, but I would need to have explisit fields in the select statement, like "select user_id from users", but when I do this then I get error messages of "expression is of wrong type". Anybody know how to solve this? Thank you.

I have the query "almost" there but I'm not sure exactly how to accomplish this. I need all recrods meeting the criteria from the AppliedLicense query. However not all records will have a match in the ApprovedLicense query. In the MergedData query I hope to get the Exp_Date column filled with the data from ApprovedLicense when there is a match but NULL if there is not a match. The code below, of course, only returns the records where there is a match in both data sources but I have no idea how to proceede. Thanks for any help.

I'm new on a Webhelp project, coming from a RoboHelp for Word background. I updated our help (stored on a shared drive) and generated Webhelp, but now the help is no longer on the drive and I cannot display the help. Is this possibly a permissions problem? I notice that the folder is set to Read Only. Thanks, Dan Gill

I have the code below. When I watch the process in the Debug window, I realize that the "traiterXML" function is done after all the code is processed. I think i don't grasp the way codes are treated. Is there an event i should call, or watch, making it sure the code after the ".load" call is run after the XML treatment has been done?

This is probably a very simple question, but I'm just wondering how to output the items on a page as they're processed, instead of having to wait for the processing for the entire page to be done before displaying anything. Does this make sense? Thanks!

Hello, All. I guess I'm just missing something silly, but I have a weird situation where after I've loaded my XML data and looked at the attributes (w/ trace in the loading function), immediately after "successfully" loading the data, it becomes undefined. Anything obvious that I should check for? This is probably the 10th project of this type that I've done, but it's been a version or so since I've messed with Flash & XML. TIA for any help... Ciao, -Jei.

i am very new to CF. can anyone explain to me what this <cfif IsDate(FORM.theTestValue)> vs <cfif Isnot Date(FORM.theTestValue)> means: and what it is used for? how is it beneficial?

This maybe very easy for all you experts out there but I am trying to update a Form Field with data that is in another Form Field when they exit the first Form Field. Basically trying to create a 'Billing' and a 'Shipping' form which i would like update automatically. Any help would be extremly greatful. Thanks Steve

Hello, Does anyone have information on how to change the naming convension of the printed document files? Thanks in advance!

Project: RHX5 Status: Previously good project, changed the index entries, now no index In a project that contains an imported Word doc, I deleted a lot of index entries from the index pane. These entries all began with the acronym UG. (We didn't like the acronym use and decided not to use it.) Then I did the following: * In the original Word doc, revised the index tags * In the project, deleted the RHX5 files for that doc * reimported the updated Word doc using the create index option The new index did not create. Instead, RH recreated the old index (using the UG acronyms). The index entries were bolded, indicating of course that they were not linked. Ghost entries. Thinking there may be some unused files in the project causing the problem, I created a new project using the RH wizard, and imported the doc again using the create index check box. No index. whazzup? Thank you!

Hi, I have a button directly on the main timeline with the instancename kings_cross. I then have some methods in the main timeline, which work as they are supposed to when the button is pressed. However, I have now placed the button inside a MC which is contained within a scrollpane. I'm using the same code but the button doesn't work...I fear this maybe a scope problem so if anyone's brave enough to help me it will be greatly appreciated.

Here is my form: <form name="form1" method="post" action="council_vips_forms.asp"> <td align="left" class="cell-list">Base</td> <td align="left" class="cell-list"><select name="Base" class="form-box" id="Base"> <option value="%" selected>ALL</option> <option value="LTN">LTN</option> <option value="LGW">LGW</option> <option value="MAN">MAN</option> </select></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" class="cell-list">Fleet</td> <td align="left" class="cell-list"><select name="Fleet" class="form-box" id="Fleet"> <option value="%" selected>ALL</option> <option value="A300">A300</option> <option value="757">757</option> <option value="FBW">FBW</option> </select></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" class="cell-list">Rank</td> <td align="left" class="cell-list"><select nam

I have been creating a mail form with different field options like "Input Fields", "Combo Boxes and "Checkboxes". Some of the fields are required. When the person is pressing the next button the required fields will be checked with a if statement, this is working fine until I have added the else statement at the end of my action script. Below is my action script code to check the fields and if they are correct to send it to php. I hope someone can help me out here. It looks like the else statement skips the if statment. Some field descriptions and “setresult” field are in Dutch.

I have been updating our help system using RoboHelp and in the past it has been packaged for the customer to install at their site. I was wondering how to do this? I know that the installer after it is package is in a folder called : WEb_output\web_installers\InstData\Windows then either folder NoVM or VM. Any help would be great!!! thanks Tricia

I am trying to find a decent CF based Survey app that includes text based answers as well as simple polling questions. The closest thing to what I need - that I have found - is Ray Camden's "Soundings" app. But the biggest drawback is that it only allows for one question per page. So a 10 question survey takes at a minimum - 20 clicks to get through. Ray has said that he plans on adding the ability to put many questions on one page but he can't say when. So - anyone got one I can purchase? Anyone know of where I can find a good one? It must be in CF - not ASP. Thanks all, Chris

I'm trying to pass a single variable from PHP to Flash. However, I can't quite get it to work. In a PHP file named data.php, I'm using: $query = SELECT SUM(Debt) As Total FROM debtclock"; $result = mysql_query($query); $debt = mysql_result($result, "Total"); print "debttotal=$debt"; In Flash 8 Actionscript, I'm using: loadVariables("data.php","0"); As I understand it, this should make the variable debttotal available in Flash. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?

I have a customtag that outputs a string, but i've noticed that spaces are added at the start and end of that string. These spaces are not in the customtag, the string has been trimmed! So why does the customtag add spaces? and how do i prevent that? (i know i can return the string in a variable to the caller page and then output that on the caller page, that works fine, but i don't want it like that).
