ColdFusion in HTML pages

Hello,
Is there any way to use ColdFusion code in an HTML page? I have a section of an HTML page where I want to put dynamic content, but I don't want to have to save the page as a .cfm file. All I need to use is a cfinclude tag.
Thanks!

I continue to be impressed by the amount of knowledge that everyone on these forums possesses. Thank you to all the posters in this thread for your insight, advice and experience. I didn't mean for my question to spin off into many different directions, but it was interesting to read everyones' responses.
To recap, my situation is this:
The homepage of my Web site is an HTML page.
I wanted to include content from a database, but I did not want to have to change the page extension to cfm at this time because of users' bookmarks, etc.
The idea to use an iframe worked, but I need to figure out how to allow the iframe to resize height-wise depending on how many records are returned.
What I'm trying to accomplish is simple, so I don't feel the need to modify my server at this time.
Again, I appreciate all the help and insight.

Coldfusion function hints in .html page

I'm building a coldfusion site that will be using .html as the file extension instead of .cfm. I can easily set the server to parse the page correctly, however I am having a problem getting the code hinting to work in Dreamweaver.
I did figure out how to set Dreamweaver for CFM tag completion in an HTML page and it works fine, for instance if I type:
<cfa
it will hint and complete <cfabort>
However, the problem I'm having is that I can't get the function hinting to work. Normally, if I edit a CFM page and press control-space I get a list of coldfusion functions, for instance if I hold control-space then type:
arr
I'll get a menu of options and can auto-complete as:
ArrayAppend()
This is very helpful but I can't get this type of function hinting to work when I'm editing a HTML page in dreamweaver. Currently it will only do the tag completion, but NOT the function completion.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!!

Jeremy,
I'm building a coldfusion site that will be using .html as the file extension instead of .cfm. I can easily set the server to parse the page correctly, however I am having a problem getting the code hinting to work in Dreamweaver.
You'll need to manually edit this file in your User (not Application) Configuration folder:
Configuration/CodeHints/CodeHints.xml
Search all of the "doctypes" attributes. Wherever you see "ColdFusion", add "HTML". It's a comma-separated list, so this:
doctypes="ColdFusion,CFC"
Should be changed to:
doctypes="ColdFusion,CFC,HTML"
Note that you can do something similar in the CodeColoring folder to get syntax coloring to work.

HTML pages won't display

I've never used Coldfusion and I'm not a web devleoper, I'm a
server admin but I've been tasked with figuring out our problem.
I've been searching all morning and I can't seem to find anything
so I thougt I would post up. Here's what we have. A windows 2003
server with IIS and Coldfusion MX7. We're hosting several web sites
with no issues. Today, one of the web sites will no longer display
.html pages. I've checked all the other sites and html pages are
fine, just this one site. The web dev guys tell me they installed a
java update yesterday to the server and thought that might be the
problem but I would think it would break all the sites, not just
one. I've clicked on every tab and buttion in IIS and everything I
could in the CF Admin but I can't seem to find anything that will
block / filter HMTL pages for that one site. The sever has been
rebooted several times with no luck.
Any thoughts or suggestions as to where I should go or check?
Thanks

So you are saying that the SWF *WAS* actually displaying but was somehow unable to present the text?
For others that may wonder about what TLF is (as I did) I'll save you the Google step.

A tree-view in HTML page with nodes generated with java script in run time is not visible in the UI Automation Tree. Need Help

I have a HTML page with an IFrame. Inside the Iframe there is a table with a tree view
<iframe>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<treeview id="tv1"></treeview>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</iframe>
In UIA, i am able to traverse till the tree view but not able to see it.
I have used the TreeWalker.RawViewWalker Field to traverse the node from the desktop Automation.RootElement.
I tried to use AutomationElement.FromPoint method to check whether i am able to get that element. Fortunately i was able to get the automation element.
i tried to get the path to root element from the node element using the TreeWalker.RawViewWalker. I was able to get the parent path to the root element.
But trying the reverse way like navigating from root element to tree node, was not getting the element for me.
Please help me with suggestions or inputs to resolve this issue.

Thanks Bernard,
It works fine with JInitiator but not working with
the JPI. For JPI what settings I need to do ??hi TKARIM and Bernard, i am having similar problem even with the Bernard's recommended setup. could you post the webutiljini.htm (i presume you are using config=test) ?
i am actually using jinitiator 1.3.1.28 with Oracle HTTP Server of OAS 10gR2) calling Forms Server 6i (f60cgi). After setting up according to Bernard's recommended setup steps, the java console showed that it loaded the icon jar file when it could not read the form, but it skipped the loading of the icon jar file once it read and started the form. How do we specify in the form to pick up the icon from the jar file instead from a directory ? Or do we need to specify ? Any ideas ?
Thx and Regards

FIREFOX 26 changed the 'post crash' page with the list of windows and pages. It was a real HTML page with links for each page. Now it isn't (and blows)

* You changed the page that comes up after a crash - the one which shows the windows and pages that were up before the
crash.
This used to be a real HTML page and it isn't any more. THis choice was pure isiocy consider how peopel used that page every day (try taking to your users for a change).
The pages listed on that 'post crash page' used to be actual LINKS (you could right click them &
manually open them in another tab - and most peope DID that every day). You could also (and I did this a lot) drag a second
copy of the page, into a new tab (to keep track of all the pages I had not wanted to open)
Now the pages are no longer links. You cannot right-click them.
The thing in the probser is no longer a page that I can drag into a new tab.
Roll the version back and throw this one in the bin...and have a good long talk with your developers about the definition of
'STUPIDITIY'
Then I try to type anything in the addres bar it is suppose to repoond with the history of old things I have types in the past, or
search for what I type (and in some cases I think it tyes to convert it intoa URL). However it no longer does any of these
things. When I type in the ADDRESS BAR ONLY, I do not get all of my letters to appear. I have to type into a notepad or
into the search and to copy and paste to go to a URL. Nothing that is typed into the address bad responds normally at all
anymore, and I am fairly certain there are no new addons on this machine at all. It does not matter which things I disable. It
still does this. W of course points the finger back at a change to FIREFOX. I wich I could just sitct with one stable release
forever but the MOZILLA folk thing it is best to force peopel awy from a working broswer release to a horrible one (due to it
being out of date).
FIREFOX 26.0 has 'issues' (ie new *features*/bugs)
1) History is no longer accurate. My Proof? This machine is the primary one for the entire family (the only PC working). It is
logged in with same user every time and never has its history cleared. It now January 7 so I ought to have a list of all of last
months browing available to me.
However, according to FIREFOX history, in all of December 2013, the entire family only went to 51 primary URL's. None of
the official TV sites I use to get episodes are listed. None of the official movie sites I use are listed. The primary URL for
ebay is not listed. Only 1 out of our 4 weather sites that I use (at least once a week) are listed. Only 1 of our 3 FINANCE
sites is listed. There ought to be several; hundred root URLs listed.
Please fix history as this change seriously "blows greasy chunks"
PROBLEM (a stupid change in the new FIREFOX version)
FOr a long time, after a crash you got a useful page (a real HTML page) which gave you a list of all of your last sessions
'winwos and tabs' that were open when the browser crashed. there were certain ways of using this page that are no longer
able to be done.
The old method was wonderful as it had this behavior :
*** The old method for displaying your 'Recovered Tabs' allowed you to :
a) right click an individual item and open it in a tab without getting rid of that lovely window of your previous session of
'recovered windows and tabs '.
2) drag the URL for the entire window of 'recovered windows and tabs ' to a new tab (to make a second copy) so that you
could select just a few of them to open as a group, and stil have the old list handy.
You can no longer do either of these things. The 'recovered windows and tabs ' page no longer has links in it and can no longer be dragged, so you cant select a few of them to use, and keep the rest around for later. NOW - once you choose which pages to open the window is gone forever (can can't get a second copy).
People used to make a copy of the page for later use (with a drag)
we also used to open pages with a right click (which no longer functions
This new method seriously blows big greasy chunks. A parge loss in function has occurred.
Put things back as they were. 26 is full of terrible changes that NOBODY likes. It also has a lot of bugs (history is not reliable at all)

(1) Firefox's built-in post-crash page has not been a real HTML page for a long time (for example, from the time of Firefox 22, see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968212 Want to save LOTS of versions of "Restore Session.xht" from the "oops ..." page for later use]). If you had this working differently with Firefox 25, that might have been created by an extension.
You can check to see whether extensions are disabled or need an update on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. The disabled extensions cluster toward the bottom of the list. To poll for updates, use the "gear" button above the list and choose Check for Updates.
If you used the Reset feature (or Firefox automatically did a reset due to some problem during upgrading), you will need to reinstall missing extensions. The reset feature creates a folder on the desktop named Old Firefox Data. Do you have that folder? There may be data you can recover from it.
(2) There are many ways for history to get cleared, both internal to Firefox and external. Could you double-check your Privacy settings?
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
* The "Firefox will" drop-down says Remember History: Firefox shouldn't be clearing history, but an add-on or external software could do it
* The "Firefox will" drop-down says Use custom settings for history: inspect the "Clear history when Firefox closes" setting to make Firefox isn't set to clear history. Also check your add-ons and consider external software.
Firefox normally accumulates months of history. However, some of Firefox's database sizes are based on disk space available. If your hard drive is very full, Firefox might reduce the amount of history stored.

Obtaining HTML page by issuing a call from a PL/SQL procedure

Is there any possibility to obtain HTMLDB -> HTML page from a user defined PL/SQL procedure ?
For example I build an procedure which calls directly

and i try to read the result from htp.showpage, but I get a html response page with a security error.
Maybe is necessary to initialize other parameters?
Any help?

"Page Path" in HTML Page Skin

Hey Guys,
I was wondering if anyone knows how I could include the behavior that the "Page Path" Item provides, but I would like to do it in an HTML Pageskin. Seems like this would be fairly common for those people using page skins.
Thanks

Hi,
I insist : it is not possible with HTML to insert Page breaks. BUT, Tammie is right! You can use CSS (Cascade Style Sheet) to insert page breaks thanks to few lines of code in your HTML page.
Follow this link to have a look at a very simple piece of code to illustrate this :
http://www.codeave.com/css/code.asp?u_log=4016
Here it the code if you don't have access to this URL :
<html>
<head>
<title>CodeAve.com/CSS - Page Break</title>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<center>
Page 1
<br style="page-break-before:always;">
Page 2
<br style="page-break-after:always;">
Page 3
<p>
Use print preview on your browser to see how<br>
this page would print out to three pages
</center>
</body>
</html>
Hope it helps.
Don't forget to close the post if solved (so that search in the forum is easier), and reward points (so that SDN members are happy !)

I have 5 html pages that share a common header, footer, and sidebar. how do i use my nav bar to change the content of the body without duplicating a lot of code?

i have 5 html pages that share a common header, footer, and sidebar. how do i use my nav bar to change the content of the body without duplicating a lot of code? thank you!

i inherited the website. It’s for a non-profit and is not very
sophisticated, and neither am I in webdesign. It currently has multiple
pages that are identical except for that body section, so whenever i change
the navigation (in the sidebar) I have to update every html page. I want
to have one basic page, and just call in the different body content based
on the link the user selects from the nav bar. How can i do that using a
script? i am using Dreamweaver.

Vs 2013 community screws up formatting of html page when saving file

I have seen other people having this issue with suggestions like 'Formatting and visualizations, tag specific options. However this is not solving my issue
example
I type the following code this way
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Days Old " />
</asp:Panel>
<asp:Panel ID="Panel2" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Days Old " />
</asp:Panel>
then when I hit save the code changes to
<asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Days Old " />
</asp:Panel><asp:Panel ID="Panel2" runat="server">
<asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Days Old " />
</asp:Panel>
This messes with the outlining and makes it hard to see where controls like Panel2 is in the code.
I am using a fresh install of visual studio community 2013 on a fresh install of windows 8.1 so this is not an issue with my istallation.
I have tried setting tag Specific options with no change
It doesn't do this every time or just on asp:panels
I have tried adding line breaks and spaces etc. this doesn't help either.
is this just a bug in visual studio or is there a general setting out of wack. I didn't have this problem with vs express for web 2012. but I did have it with vs express for web 2013 and community 2013

Hi PBPuddin,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Based on your issue, I tried to add this code as you said into a html page and then I saved the code. I found that the code formatting of the html page did not occur like you said that in VS2013 Community.
So to check if this issue is related to the VS2013 Community IDE, I suggest you could try to copy the same version of the VS2013 Community setup file on other machine and then install it check this issue again.
(1) If you still get the issue, I assume that the issue maybe related to this VS2013 Community setup file, so please download it from Microsoft official website and then install it again.
https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/news/vs2013-community-vs.aspx
(2) If you did not get same issue, I suggest you could try the following suggestion to check the issue.
(2.1) please try to open your VS in safe mode and then check if you install some add-ins in the VS IDE.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms241278.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
Or you could try to check if you install some third-party tool/ software on your machine.
Hope it help you!

How do I pass input values from a html page to a jsf page

hi,
In my project,for front view we have used html pages.how can I get input values from that html page into my jsf page.for back end purpose we have used EJB3.0
how can I write jsf managed bean for accessing these entities.we have used session facade design pattern and the IDE is netbeans5.5.
pls,help me,very urgent
thanx in advance

Simplest way is to rewrite html page into jsf page.
You can use session bean in your managed bean like this:
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
public class ManagedBean {
private Context ctx;
private Object res;
// session bean interface
private Service service;
          public ManagedBean() {
            try{
                 ctx = new InitialContext();
                 res = ctx.lookup("Service");
                 service = (Service) res;
           catch(Exeption e){

Cannot get the parameter from a HTML page at the first time

Hi everyone,
I have a html page with <input name="username" ...>, and the submit action is a url to my JSF web application. In the start page of the JSF webapp, I use following code to get value of username.
FacesContext facesContext = javax.faces.context.FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
String userName = (String)facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap().get("username");
However, I cannot get it at the first time. The strange thing is if i click "refresh" button, the value of username is shown up on my page.
Why? and How to solve it?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
Are you putting this code in the public void preprocess() method?
Check out

The assumption is that Creator is being used.

Can I use data from Servlet in my static html page?

First of all, I can NOT use jsp because of web server's restriction.
I have a servlet which will give me some image links in html file via doGET and doPOST method. I also need the sizes of the images and compress the images if too large.
My question is how I can pass the image sizes to the html page and how I can use them in html files.
Please advise me some solutions to this problem.

Yeah, you have 2 choices:
1) Change your web server to one that allows JSP.
2) Re-build the JSP system from scratch so that the one you make will work in your server. This would involve changing your so called static HTML to have markings (like <% %> tags) where you should insert the values you need to insert. You would then have a servlet that reads the 'static' HTML, parses our the insertion tags, and inserts the values. It would then stream the results back to the user.
Of course, your HTML is not really static, it is dynamic because the values you are inserting are capable of changing.
If you don't want to upgrade the server to one that supports JSPs (if yours really doesn't), the have fun making your own system.

Problem in Opening HTML Page in Internet Explorer from my Swing Application

Hi,
I am opening a HTML file in Internet Explorer from my swing application.I am using the code given below
private final static String WIN_FLAG = "url.dll,FileProtocolHandler";
private final static String WIN_PATH = "rundll32";
String cmd = WIN_PATH + " " + WIN_FLAG + " " + url;
// url is HTML file Path
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( cmd );
Here there are two things i need to address ...
1)The HTML file is opening up,but it always opens behind the swing application,that makes me every time to maximize the HTML file after it being opened up.I want to open it in front of the Swing Application.I need to implement "Always On Top" functionality for the html page.
2)Whenever i trigger action to open different HTML page,it opens in new Internet Explorer window.
I need to open it in same IE window.
how to solve out these problems ??? any help would be greatly appreciated .Thanks in advance.

any idea about this ????

How to open an HTML page that is part of my project using Captivate 6

I'm looking to create an HTML page that will use some javascript to extract information from Captivate and then render it to the browser window as a report.
I see how you can Open a URL webpage from Captivate (by putting in an explicit address ie www.abc.com or http://www.abc.com/myReport.html)
but I'm curious what address I can use if the html file is in the SAME folder at the index.html that launches the captivate project (or perhaps one folder down).. I'm wanting to do this so it works whether I've published the project to a webserver or not.
I was thinking I could use a relative reference (ie something like .\myReport.html), but I haven't had any luck thus far

Thanks Seth.
I just tried that, but when I run it in preview mode (by simply hitting F12), it gives me an error because it can't find the file in the temporary preview folder it creates (ie:
C:\Users\Tom\AppData\Local\Temp\CP2840464090993Session\CPTrustFolder2840464091009\Captivat ePreviewLoader\
I'm hoping to find a place to put it so that it works when running F12 and when running in regular 'published' mode
I was thinking I could put it in the 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 6 (32 Bit)\Templates\Publish' folder, but when I do that, it doesn't seem to gete copied to the .\CaptivatePreviewLoader folder when running F12
