getting location from IP address
I'm trying to write a small script that among other things, will use the site visitor's ip address to find out a general location. At minimum, the country. I'd prefer to keep a local database and just get it updated every once in a while. Any ideas?
A question regarding apache Lucene
Hello, I have a web-content extracted in a text file. If I feed it to lucene, can I find the following by using lucene queries: 1> Top 10 most frequently occurring words 2> Bottom 10 most frequently occurring words 3> Longest phrase that has occurred more than once. This is my first time working on lucene and based on my initial
TR tag causing the cfdocument (pdf) to fail
This issue has probably been addressed but I would just like to report it hoping that it can be fixed on the next release (to be on par with how Adobe ColdFusion handles it). The following HTML code is causing the cfdocument to fail (without error details): <cfsavecontent variable="html"> <html> <body>
cfscript and indexed notation of queries
I think I may have discovered another issue with cfscript following the ANTLR parser integration. Specifically, I often loop through query datasets to 'populate' an object, etc. In doing so I typically use indexed notation to reference the query column and row (see below). for (i = 1; i <= qryMyResult.RecordCount; i++) {
Cfspreadsheet dataformat or "dateformat" ?
Hi I'm using the great cfspreadsheet plugin from Alan Williamson, but I just found what I think it is a bug. The problem is the following: The key "dataformat" on the format structure simply doesn't work. It is do nothing. But, reading the source code I found the following sentence on the if ( _struct.containsKey("dateforma t") ){
itext integration with BD7(server)
I'm wanting to use iText to fill in a pdf form with BD7 but can't find any tutorials (or walk-throughs) to help me get started. Here's my situation. I have a web form that I'm submitting to a .net web service where the .net people downstairs wrote something that was based on itext to fill in a pdf form. This is great and all, but now
catch statements within cfscript not allowing dot notation for error types
I think I may have discovered another gotcha with the new cfscript parser. Specifically, the issue occurs when I declare an error type in my catch statement that contains a period. Example: try { (some code that errors out) (handle catch of type 'typewith.dot') This issue popped after the cfscript re-write since it used to work
var keyword inside cfscript
I am wondering if the var keyword or local scope variable is implemented correctly when being used inside cfscript. Or maybe there is a different way of using it in OpenBD (compared to Adobe ColdFusion). Here's a sample code to test (saved as .cfm file): <cfscript> writeoutput(getPizza()); function getPizza(){
What can OpenBD do for me?? =)
Hi Guys, I'm building a website called Details.at It is going to be a site where you can profile pages [link] Classified Ads [link] or just it for redirects details.at/vanityurl ----> [link]
Unexpected behavior using Java collections
I have a UDF that I have used over the years that generates random strings, etc. that I use throughout applications. In an effort to try and create a pretty random string I generate an array of alphanumeric values which I then use as a "seed" array to generate a string of X characters long. The core of the function relies on the java.util.collections shuffle
[OpenBD-GAE] Can't query Numeric
There are about 20 records with COUNTRYID = 1 but the following query doesn't retrieve any records. <cfquery name="getTeams"> select from team where COUNTRYID == 1 </cfquery>
Licensing et al ...
Allow me to weigh into the debate here. Many of the questions you ask here, the answers can be found on the main web site in the About section. But let me reiterate them here. + tagServlet Ltd is a UK company that owns the copyright of the BlueDragon family. + NewAtlanta is a US company that licenses the BlueDragon product from
IIS7 CFML default document (Tomcat isapi_redirect)
I just wanted folks to know that I did get IIS7 to properly serve and process index.cfm as the default document and I wanted to provide some sort of documentation on how to do it. I'm going to post the following message to both the OpenBD and Railo mailing lists, since this fix is appropriate to both distributions, so I
Graphical Launcher for a Standalone OpenBD Application
I have an interesting problem, and I wanted to share it with the group to see if anyone else has any ideas on it. I want to be able to ship a standalone, CFML application running on OpenBD. Imagine any normal application with an installer. For the sake of argument, this application is called 'MyApplication'.
Issue With NULL and QueryRun()
I've been experimenting a lot with QueryRun() recently (which I absolutely love--see blog post here for one cool trick I discovered: [link]), but I think there may be an issue with the null parameter in the array of structs that are used in lieu of CFQUERYPARAM. Dumb example, but illustrates the problem:
