Cfselect (format="flash") doesn't render with addition of "onChange" attribute

The following code renders fine without the "onChange"
attribute, but when I add the "onChange" attribute it no longer
appears on the screen. I'm new to <cfform>, so any help would
be appreciated!
<cfselect name="select_project"
label="Select Project"
query="qMenuWrProject"
value="work_rqst_nbr"
display="display_desc"
required="yes"
multiple="no"
width="500"
onChange="this.form.submit();"
/>

Let me put it another way.
open the page in FF
right-click within the document and choose View Page Source
in the pop-up window, click ../SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js
You will see
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

The requested URL /SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js was not found on this server.<P>
<HR>
<ADDRESS>Apache/1.3.37 Server at www.tc.umn.edu Port 80</ADDRESS>

This means that the document cannot be found.
I could also put it another way by translating ../SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js as http://www.tc.umn.edu/SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js
click on the latter and see what happens
now click on http://www.tc.umn.edu/~aias/SpryAssets/SpryAccordion.js

  • Format-number doesn't work with XSL and DW preview

    Hi All
    I'm creating XSL files to transform XML into HTML. However,
    the number formatting doesn;t seem to work in Dreamweaver. For
    example, if I specifiy:
    format-number(price,'$###,###.00'), I should get $7596.99. I
    actually get 7596.990000000001 in my Preview (no currency symbol,
    too many decimal places). If I do the same thing in another XSL
    editor (Xseleerator) I get: $7,596.99.
    This is REAL PAIN, as every time I do anything with number
    formatting, I need to open the XML and XSL in another product just
    to check the formattng.
    Can anyone shed any light on this?
    Thnaks

    Try to declare the variable out side of the region
    <script> var tp1;</script>
    <div spry region ... >
    tab panel stuff
    <script type="text/javascript">
    tp1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("tp1");

  • Flash doesn't install with IE, works with Firefox

    Hi,
    I am using Vista 32 bit.  Many months ago I used IE 8.  One day Flash stopped working.  I tried many times to uninstall and reinstall.  It would say installed correctly, but didn't work.  After days of frustration, I gave up and switched to Firefox, where it worked just fine. I am currently on Flash V 10.2.153.1 and just recently updated to Firefox 4.  A few days ago I downloaded Chrome and it works there too.  Today I thought I would try downloading IE 9, to see if the new version might cause it to start working, but no luck.
    I have looked at Windows/system32/macromed/flash for the file NPSWF32.dll; it shows v 10.2.153.1.
    In IE tools - manage addons under show all addons it has shockwave flash object enabled 10.2.159.1.
    When I go to the Adobe page that is supposed to show what version of Flash is installed, I get nothing - the red F is not rotating.
    Now here is one more thing - I created a test user account on my computer, logged off my account, logged on to the test account, and Flash worked with IE, and showed v 10.2.159.1.  Logged back on to my old account - still doesn't work.
    Any ideas?
    Thanx

    Hi, I've been busy today getting ready for Easter and Family things:-) Just checking back in and read your thread.
    I can see you are happy Great, glad that took care of it. That you didn't see this in other posts/threads isn't surprising. There are so many things that involves Flash Player. Not Installing or Uninstalling, not working & why. The "why" is the hard part since there are so many varibles that can be involved. So I usually start with the most obvious first and continue with a process of elimination. In your case I don't think the UAC was operating properly, that's why I mentioned it in the first place.
    Windows is great, but it can have a glitch here and there. My "Safely Remove Hardware" was not showing up in the system tray today when I was using a USB. So I had to track that down and finally got that working.
    Your touchpad drivers are doing that? I would consult the manufacturer of your computer after reviewing this in the Vista Forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-performance/touch-pad-on-ke yboard/c2f1af9d-8447-48f1-8def-2554fc0779ca
    Pat would probably know more on drivers.
    Regarding Norton and the MBAM scan. When running an MBAM scan it's best to just Disable Norton or any AV one would have Installed, then Close all browser windows. That way nothing will interfere with the scan or conflict with MBAM.
    I hope you get your touchpad driver issue solved.
    Also, don't forget to mark your thread as answered. This will help others that may have the same problem you did. The Search feature should be working again soon and that will help.
    Thanks,

  • Flash doesn't work with templates

    Hi,
    After install the last versión of Flash Player, I solved
    the ActiveX problems, but now the problem is that the swf files
    that I have in templates do not work. I can't see them when I test
    the page or even when the page is on the server.
    Any help please!!

    If they are on the device or a previous backup still exists in iTunes, then the pictures still exists.
    Why not remove the uncertainty and copy the pictures off the device to the computer?
    As for the flash problem, it could be an issue with the device, iOS corruption, or the specific app(s).

  • Proper "Formatting" of second internal drive with Disc Utility??

    Using a second internal HD for data storage, was formated 4 months ago with default settings from Disc Utility. When I called the drive manufacturer today about corrupted Photoshop files (10 in 4 months) occuring on this drive, they recommended that I backup, Erase and Format as MAC OS Extended "NOT" Journaled.
    Before I start - any comments, recommendations??
    Would "Journaled" or "Not Journaled" actually cause corruption in 150mb Photoshop files??

    I'd run Disk Utility and have a look at the disks; I'd look to verify the volume structures.
    Journaled HFS+ is the default for installations, too.
    Formatting usually doesn't help with disk hardware that is going wonky. Bad blocks are bad blocks, and failing disks tend to have increasing numbers of bad blocks. Reformatting a failing disk "papers over" the bad blocks, at least until the next crop of bad blocks arises and corrupts something else.
    Formatting does help if there's a corruption in the volume structure.
    Would also look to off-load everything and either replace the disk with a new one (wonky disks aren't worth bothering with), and/or run a write-comparison test and pound on the drive some.
    Journaling can be shut off on the fly; see the diskutil man page for details on the disableJournal knob.
    I'd also try to determine if this is something specific to Photoshop, or if this is a more generic problem. Look also for patches for Photoshop, and do look to update whatever version of Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server is in use here.
    There's no obvious mention of HFS+ and Journaling and Photoshop over at Adobe, either.

  • Additional results doesn't work with multi-line string dat

    I observed an erratic behavior with "Additional Results" in TestStand 2010. The problem statement is as follows:
    1. I have a variable "Locals.FirstName"
    2. I have another variable "Locals.LastName"
    3. Concatenate these two strings with a line feed or a new line character (Locals.FirstName+"\n"+Locals.LastName) and display it in a XML report. 
    Approach:
    1. Using "Statement Expression" I concatenate two strings and print the result using "Additional Results"
    2. For verification I display it using "Message Popup" step type. The formatting is as desired in "Message Popup". However, the new line characters appear as "Spaces" in XML report.
    Tracing Of this Erratic Behavior:
    1. I passed the concatenated string to LabVIEW VI and passed it to "Step.Result.ReportText" variable to log it in XML report. The same string which didn't appeared properly using “Additional Results"of "Statement Expression” step now appears proper in XML report.
    I have attached the sequence file for reference. Ensure that Report option is set to XML before executing this sequence.
    Can anyone justify this behavior and suggest the correct approach??
    Thanks !

    Amit -
    Here is a modified version of the TestStand 2010 Horizontal.xsl style sheet that corrects the issue you have mentioned. Note that leading and trailing "\n" characters will still be stripped out, and all "\r" characters will be stripped out.
    Hope this helps.

    The message is " An error occurred, please try again later" just with youtube. Other sites work. Another browser works with youtube!!

    Whay do you mean "difficult with the camer?"
    Two things that might help. Reset all your settings and reset the phone.  Use the Settings app to reset all settings. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings  Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that helps.

  • HT5655 Flash still doesn't work with Safari.

    I deleted the Flash plugin from Library>Internet Plugins. That didn't solve the problem either.

  • With an iPhone 5 is a way to handling backlight better. Flash doesn't do it.

    How can I handle backlighting in an iPhone 5 camera? The flash doesn't it and there is no way to use "spot metering".

    Camera+ is also a camera app. It has much better metering options than the built in app. Put your thumb and finger together on the screen while in camera mode then spread them appart. You'll get the icons for focus and exposure which can be moved around separately.
    Best of luck.

    As for AS3 part of it, I am not sure your code really works. There are syntax and logical errors there.
    I think you need to take it step by step and accomplish several task in the following sequences:
    1. Write code that loads XML correctly;
    2. Write code that enables buttons;
    3. Write code that will load images on button clicks.
    The code below shows in principal what needs to be done in order to load XML and make the data in this XML available for further consumption. Also, by accomplishing this step you will iron out all the PHP vs Flash wrinkles including your XML.
    Please note, I don't know your XML structure so all the parsing issues you need to resolve yourself.
    Once you get handle on it - we, hopefully, will talk about steps 2 and 3.
    import flash.display.Loader;
    import flash.events.*;
    import flash.net.*;
    var images:XML;
    var myRequest:URLRequest;
    var myLoader:URLLoader;
    // list of image urls that will come from loaded XML
    var imageList:XMLList;
    myRequest = new URLRequest("Photography.php");
    myLoader = new URLLoader();
    myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onFileLoaded);
    // suggested handler for unexpected errors - avoids some headaches
    myLoader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onLoadError);
    myLoader.load(myRequest);
    // Note: all the listeners are removed
    // it is always wise to remove listeners that are needed any longer
    // to make objects eligible for arbage collection
    function onLoadError(e:IOErrorEvent):void
         trace(e.toString());
         myLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onFileLoaded);
         myLoader.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onLoadError);
    function onFileLoaded(e:Event):void
         myLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onFileLoaded);
         myLoader.removeEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onLoadError);
         images = new XML(myLoader.data);
         // only now xml is ready and you can start loading images
         imageList= images.pic;

  • Project will not render with 'I-Frame only MPEG'

    Hey Adobe, I am posting this at your request.    
    I previously used to have an old Intel Core2 chip system.
    I upgraded this so that my video editing life would be faster.  I have a new motherboard, with a new intel I7-4770 @ 3.5Ghz chip. same memory (16Gb-1600), graphics card, hard disk, DVD drive, etc..
    On the Core2 system, video projects which I worked on all worked fine. I mainly use a Sony Z5 to shoot video which creates .M2T files.
    On my old system, running Premiere CC it ALL WORKED - no problems, but on the new build, it crashes EVERYTIME i try to render, with 'Error Compiling Movie - Unknown Error'
    Having spent FOUR hours on the phone to your tech supports in India, they came up with a workaround. I stress - it's a workaround, not a solution.
    They found that if i changed the sequence to be 'Custom' and then selected 'Microsoft AVI' (and any Codec, doesn't matter which) as the Preview File Format  instead of 'i-Frame Only MPEG' then yes - it renders.
    The tech told me that this was because 'M2T' files were fussy, and needed to be treated like this.
    WRONG!
    if this *needed* to be the case, then why did it work previously on my old system without any problem?
    Also, if I take a project that crashes on my desktop PC, and copy it over onto my laptop, de-activate Premiere on my desktop and activate on my laptop and run in on there .. IT RENDERS FINE, using the 'I-Frame Only MPEG' setting.
    Also, i shot some video with a Nikon D5100 which produces full HD .MOV clips, *AND THE SAME PROBLEM STILL OCCURS* when rendering on my desktop PC, and only renders when i switch the Preview File Format to be 'Microsoft AVI - so it's not related to the .M2T video file type.    
    So I can render stuff, but ultimately it's a workaround and not a solution, as when I am finished with a project, and want to archive it off I do so by exporting and choosing 'Match Sequence Settings', with with Microsoft AVI selected, it wants to therefore obviously export it as an AVI, which i do not want - I want to export it as 25mbps MPEG which is the original quality/format that it was shot at.  When i try and do this with 'i-Frame Only MPEG' selected as the sequence type - you've guessed it, Media Encoder crashes
    So.  Why does i-Frame Only MPEG work on one machine (my laptop), but on my main machine (desktop) which i want to use, it doesn't? What piece of software/codec/file am I missing?
    - i have installed from clean build of Windows
    - i have deactivated and reactived Premiere CC
    - i have uninstalled Premiere CC and reinstalled it
    - i have uninstalled all Cloud CC programs and reinstalled them
    - I have run CC cleaner too
    - I have the latest video drivers for my graphics card (it is the same graphics card that worked just fine on my old system anyway, so is not the issue)
    - I have full Windows/Admin permissions. it is not a permissions problem
    please don't suggest any of those options.  None of them work.  I need someone who understands your software and knows what i-Frame only MPEG is to be able to tell me why it isn't working on my system.  I am now past the point of anger (because i have lost several days worth of worktime - and thus money) and being upset (because it's massively frustrating when somthing that previously worked now doesn't), and am now just at the point of being bewildered that no one there can seem to tell me what is going on here, and how to solve it.
    Many thanks,
    Geoff.

    I have to put in my 2 cents...and first of all I'm sorry things are happening that are not FANTASTIC results... etc... but there may be ways to make things better... but this stuff is complicated and extremely computer intensive ( math stuff with cpu and ram and stuff ) .. so the platform is very critical to best results.. not just the software.
    There's books on compression and how that stuff works ( lossless or not ) and it's all about changes from frame to frame and how to best make file size smaller while keeping every single pixel perfect in each frame... and this is unfortunately not standardized on planet earth. Different companies make up what they can to sell cameras and recording medium and so on..  there are some standards ( for broadcast and movies etc ) cause at some point some groups have to deal with delivery to PEOPLE to watch stuff.. and have decent quality to watch...
    In general this is very complicated and full of problems cause there is no single work flow , and probably never will be .
    What Jeff is talking about ( I think ) is that during the process of a computer program interpreting images ( frame by frame ) those pixels that have not changed a lot are described in a line of code by the software that says, " This stuff has not changed much if at all ".  Some stuff from one frame to the next one DID change a lot ( someone walking or someone running.. the running changes more fast ) .. and so lines of code say ,  " this stuff changed a LOT "....
    During the process of the software to determine what changed and how MUCH changed.. is complicated.. cause the program basically looks at frame A and then Frame F and notes the changes of pixels... and THEN ( as if that wasn't complicated enough ) the program then goes BACK  to frame A and then ahead to frame J ... so now it has expanded it's look at what changes have occurred...
    Now the ' CODEC " ( the specific codec used by the program you are running , like CC or avid or FCP ) is going to make it's best GUESS as to what really changed that matters the MOST to the image...so you basically get a nice image from A to J ..... but it is now compressed and taking up less room on your hard drive and ram etc....cause it is interpreting the image changes... and so on...
    So if you had every single frame without any guess work and no compression to save space cause those pixels did not change between A and J .... you would have HUGE FILES .... and no benefit in terms of being able to edit anything on a little home desktop computer... even if you have a really powerful one.. it is not going to be good enough to do that stuff....
    It would be unfair to say that adobe isn't doing the best they can to accomodate all the camera manufacturers " codecs " and give the best results they can , with a million different computer platforms and hardware out there you can buy off the shelf ....
    The I frames and B frames and other frames have to do with the " guessing game " of changes in pixels, changes with every " action " in those ranges of frames, and is very complicated... but there are books about it and what standards exist can be researched and studied if you're into that stuff....
    I am an idiot about this stuff but the main thing is dont give up.. and just try to be patient when things dont work out like you thought they would, and figure out what is going on so you can make things work the way you want...
    and good luck !

    Additionally I doubt if your company would know what your username and password is for SAP as you got to request SAP to get one.
    here is the link to the registration page.

  • Which USB 64GB flash drives are compatible with Mac Mini?

    I need to use a USB 64GB flash drive, formatted for both PC and Apple, with my Mac Mini. The largest USB flash that Apple sells is 32GB. Which USB 64GB flash drives are compatible with Mac Mini. If most are, are there any that I should avoid? Thanks.

    I'm assuming that when I connect the USB to the Mac it gets formatted for Mac. Then I follow your directions and it gets formatted for Windows, in addition to Mac. I'd choose ExFAT since it is a 64GB USB.
    No no. A brand new drive will be formatted as "something", most likely something for Windows, and that could be FAT (which a Mac can also read and write to) or NTFS (which a Mac can read but not write to).
    So, you'll need to make sure it's formatted as ExFAT, instead of what it is. A medium can be in always only one format.
    About the expense: Fry's is advertising a 64GB Patriot USB Flash Drive for $22.99. Is that considered expensive for a USB flash drive?
    That'd be dirt-cheap, I'd say. Expect it to be very slow.
    I've read answers that are somewhat related to my question, and some warn that USB's are slow. Maybe I should consider another option?
    USB is not that slow (though there are faster buses). And USB flash drives come in different speeds, where especially the "write" speed can vary hugely.
    The advantage of USB is that it's widely spread, and lots of media is on the market, making it very affordable. The only other affordable alternative is an external HDD, I'd say, where you get much bigger drives for less money than a small 64GB USB flash drive...
    My main objective is that, in switching from Windows to Mac, I want to be able to access Windows files that I've backed up to a Seagate Free Agent. I bought a LaCie with the Mac Mini, but will still want to use the Free Agent. I need to reformat the Free Agent for the Mac (hopefully for Mac and Windows; while learning to use the Mac and Numbers and Pages I may have emergency jobs that I'll need to do with Excel and Word on the PC), so my plan is to move the files on the Free Agent to the 64GB flash drive, reformat the Free Agent so that, hopefully, the Mac will read the files on it after I move them back to the Free Agent from the USB.
    Why don't you copy the content of the Free Agent meanwhile to the Mac's HDD? Then copy it back after re-formatting the Free Agent? Why would you need an extra USB drive?
    Any ideas you have about how to achieve this objective will be appreciated. Maybe I should buy a third, small, external hard drive? Maybe there is a way to move the Windows files from the Seagate to the LaCie?
    Exactly... you seem to have already extra space on the LaCie drive...
    My understanding is that the Apple Store does not want to move files from an external hard drive to the Mac.
    I don't know where this could origin, but that's as wrong as it is funny. What has the App Store to do with you moving some files from one drive to another?
    I should add that I don't have enough remaining free space on the PC hard drive to hold the files on the Free Agent, so that is not an option.
    No, but you have a Mac with a built-in HDD, and you got the LaCie drive. Again, the Mac should have neither a problem to read from the Free Agent, nor to write to the LaCie.
    From what you're telling here, you have lots of space already with what you have, I can't see the need for the USB flash drive, at least not for the purpose you mention here.
    It seems that your understanding is that (a) a drive comes in a particular format for, or not for Mac, and you can't change it, and (b) that for some reason (App Store?!) Macs aren't allowed to copy files from external files. Well, both is wrong...
