Flash Forms not finding page elements on submit
I have a flash form that performs perfectly from my computer
and from several users computers. But there are several other users
that get an error message saying that one of the form elements does
not exist when they submit the form. Removing the 'offending'
element just changes which element becomes the new 'offender'. I
have tried adjusting the timeout for the cfform (I currently have
timeout="200"). The form has approximately 70 fields and one image
upload spread over 4-5 tabs. Consistently, the ones that have no
problem, never have a problem and the ones that have a problem
always have a problem. When I reproduce the error by remoting into
my office computer, I also notice that not all of the elements are
well formed. For instance, a textarea that was supposed to be in
html was rendered as pure text. Has anyone had a similar issue or
have a solution?
yes but still no luck. When you go here do you see my flash
form load in Safari? I'm using Safari for Windows not mac.

So does Flash Forms not work in Safari?
Does Flash Forms not work on Safari Browser? I have them on

Or do I need to just add some type of extension to my Safari

Here is the page. it won't work in Safari.. unless I"m
missing an install extension. I just downloaded the browser for
Windows for the first time today and so I wanted to check my site

Custom 404 cfm pages, and ColdFusion flash forms not working together
Hi,
I've recently ran into an issue that I was hoping I could have a little help with. My company has been using custom 404 pages for awhile that we set up in iis however we had never set up this custom 404 page to display on .cfm pages, only missing folders. Ie; www.website.com/asdasdasdsd/ would display a custom 404 error But www.website.com/asdasdasdsd.cfm would not. I recently set this up by going in the iis properties for our site, went to the home directory tab click on configuration and selected edit from the mappings tab. From here I checked the verify that file exists open. This enabled the file.cfm custom error to appear however for some reason it disabled all of my ColdFusion flash forms. None of them appear now. If I undo the iis setting that I changed earlier they all re-appear. I got these settings from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/000/95ee04fb.html and they do the job, they just disable my flash forms. Is there any way to do this without them disabling my flash forms from working?
Thanks!
Paul AlkemaHi Paul,
Did you ever receive an answer to this (old) post? I'm having the same problem myself.
Thanks,

Just upgraded from CF MX 6 to MX 7. Trying out flash forms,
but they are not working.
I tried out a simple First Name, Last name, Submit form
setting the form to flash. When viewing the page in Safari, Firefox
on a Mac and IE in Windows the page is blank. If I set take out the
flash tag and just leave it as a CFForm it shows perfectly in all
browsers. All browsers are able to view flash and shockwave files.
Not sure what is going on.
Any ideas?
Thanks.I am having the exact same issue. I have tried tutorial code
from several sites. I have added a name to my form. I checked to
make sure my CFIDE directory is mapped in my CFADMIN. I don't know
what else to try. Right now I have the exact same code for testing
as mishuno has. If i remove the type attribute I see a form. If I
add back in "format="flash"" I don;t see anything on the screen but
I do see flash code in the page source. HELP!!!!
<CFFORM width="500" name="testForm">
<cfinput type="text" name= "firstname" label="First
Name">
<cfinput type="text" name="lastname" label="Last Name">
<cfinput type="submit" name="submit" value="save">
</CFFORM>
I think I found the issue just now but I am not sure how to
change it. Although I have a CFIDE mapping ( /CFIDE set to:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE ) set up in my CFadmin, my application.log
is showing the following error:
quote:
File not found: /CFIDE/scripts/cfformhistory.cfm The specific
sequence of files included or processed is:
C:\Data\users\dev.myservername.com\CFIDE\scripts\cfformhistory.cfm
So the flash is looking in the wrong place for the form
related files (which are in my CFIDE folder in the correct
location)
Anybody know what I need to change on my server??

Hello, all.
The issues are just appearing out of the woodworks, now.
The project I am working on (
http://www.goldininstitute.org/staging_directory/)
now has yet another issue - in IE6, the flash form does not load at
all. It's supposed to be in the lower left corner - a login form,
just username and password with a submit button - and works great
in FF/NN/Op, but does not appear at all in IE6. Is this another
security issue for IE? Form code follows:

Flash Forms Not Rendering in IE7, Flash 9
We're having a problem with flash forms in IE7 and Flash
Player 9 not rendering the entire form. The form works fine in
Firefox 2. It looks to be a problem with how the Flash player is
able to pull back data in IE7. Likely this pertains to how IE7
handles security of plug-ins.
Oddly, we've noticed that uninstalling the Flash 9 player and
then reinstalling results in the form rendering correctly the first
time, but on subsequent views the form no longer renders correctly.
Specifically, we're not seeing data that is being called via
Flash remoting in cfselect tags (state and country information).
And we're not seeing text rendered that is in cfformitem tags. Our
dev url is:
http://hopeequity.beaconfire.com/loggedout/index.cfm?event=StartInvesting_StartAGroupStep1
If anyone has an idea of why IE7 might not be able to render
the form correctly, or might have security-related issues with
remoting and Flash 9, please reply.I was granted access to the manuals on our prod server (the
site is set up where you have to log in to see the manuals). The
manuals are behaving differently on the prod server than in our dev
server. The following is happening on the prod server:
- the flash menus are appearing on our prod server in FireFox
only.
- I had reported in our dev area that when I right clicked on
the left hand side where the menus are to appear in IE that the
Flash menu displayed. This is not the case in our production area.
- I get the "This page contains both secure and nonsecure
items" when viewing the site on our prod server through IE
I've asked them what version of RoboHelp they are using and
no one seems to know. It seems they don't regenerate their help
files (manuals) very often. -
I have just about given up on flash forms. I have read just
about every thread in this Forum, but cannot find the answer.
Have worked with flash forms in the past, but after recently
upgraded to a new box with Vista Business and Codl Fusion 8 Dev
Edition I cannot get flash forms working. I have have seen a tonne
of postings with the same issue, but few with a resolution, and
where there is I try it and makes no difference.
If I run the following code:
<cfform format="flash">
<cfinput type="dateField" name="startDate" label="Start
Date:" mask="dd/mm/yyyy">
</cfform>
If I remove format="flash" form works fine. If I include
format="flash" form doesn't display. View source shows the code
there, CFIDE is mapping correctly etc.
One thing I do notice though, which may or may not be
involved is that when viewing the code generated, it is looking in
the same folder that the script that includes the form was in. Do I
need to tell it to look somewhere else? Pure speculation here, but
EVERYTHING else checks out.
If someone at Adobe can set this straight would be great,
because an afternoon spent reading other postings on this matter
shows there are clearly a lot of people stumbling around in the
dark on this one.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.Michael --
Thanks for your help.
I think I've narrowed the problem down -- it's not that it
won't display my flash form in IE, it's that it won't display it in
a Fusebox environment. I'm going to poke over at their site to see
what they have to say -- I suspect I'll need to upgrade the version
of Fusebox that I'm using. :) -
RE: Flash forms not rendering
Anyone find a solution from Adobe regarding the MS Server
2003 problem with
flash forms? Its dead on our site after the upgrade and the
fixes did not
work for us.

I'm having trouble with cfform and flash forms. The forms
work fine in IE, FF2, and Google Chrome. However for some reason
the form isn't rendering under firefox 3. If anyone could help me
out with why this is the url is here:
http://city.richbank-studios.com:81/admin
I can go directly to the cfswf file and renders fine in ff3,
but something is not right with the embedding code or something
because it won't render in the page.
Thanks
TerryI am having the same problem, Flash player 10 seems to have
broken Firefox 2, 3 and Opera...
I use the "Wimpy" flash button to stream Podcasts and Random
songs on my site's front page, and as soon as I did the flash 10
update, it stopped working for me, and many users whom I've talked
to. Still works in IE 6 and 7..
Even more funny, I created a Web Photo Gallery in Photoshop
CS2, (Flash - Gallery 2) and it doesn't work either.
Gallery is here:
http://beastiemixes.com/images2/othersites/cnc/index.htm
Podcast page is here:

On the podcast page, under "Stream" There's supposed to be
little (|>) flash play buttons. -
Coldfusion does not recognize IE11 - Flash forms not working.
This is a problem that has me banging my head on my desk. We have a web application that still uses Flash based web forms. (Before anyone says it, I know we need to get away from the flash forms, but we cannot do this overnight.) The problem is that because IE11 no longer passes MSIE in the USER AGENT string, ColdFusion is placing an <Embed> tag instead of an <Object> tag to load the flash. I know that we could add our site to the Compatibility List, however we have too many users to guide this through. We need a solution that we can perform on our side, either modifying code, ColdFusion, or IIS. First has anyone else run into this problem? Does anyone have any potential solutions?
Thanks in advance for your help.We did find a stable work around that "tells" coldfusion to render flash forms for IE 10 even though the server call is coming from IE 11. I don't believe Adobe would necessarily want the method that we were forced to use advertised. It involved adding 10 lines of CF code to the top of each page that used flash forms. It was very unorthodox and we are simply using this to buy time to get our forms off the flash platform. I would be willing to email the solution to anyone interested.

Flash forms -- Not displaying in IE
This is my first foray into flash forms, and I discovered
yesterday that while they look/work beautifully in Firefox
(2.0.0.4), they're not displaying at all in IE (6 or 7).
I'm using it to force the user to input their date in a
uniform format, so I'm sure there's a non-flash workaround. I'd
like to get this sorted out though, so my future work with flash
can be more involved.
Code is attached. Please let me know if I can provide further
clarification.Michael --

This is a new one. Problem seen on iMac and Mac Pro.
1) Create a new Pages document (newest version).
2) Save to the Desktop
3) Export as MS Word document with the same identical name
4) Close the Pages documents
5) Quit Pages
6) Open Pages
7) Choose File : Open
8) In the search field in the upper right corner of Open dialog. Enter the name of the document just saved.
9) Only the MS Word document is listed. the Pages document is not shown, even when Filename contains is selected
If anyone knows how to fix this problem. please comment on this request.
thanksthanks for testing. I do realize that the two test files will show up in the Open dialog as it opens to the Desktop folder. But what happens if it opens up in another folder and you need to locate a Pages file where you don't know the location, you remember the name. You would go to the search field in the upper right corner of the Open dialog and enter the name. In the Open dialog, the name would be listed and you can choose the one to open. In my tests, the search field would only show the MS Word document, not the Pages i.e. only one would be listed not two. Also, Filenames is an option that does appear in the search field in the Pages Open dialog.
The examples files I created are called "This is a test". The content of the file is "This is a test" (without the quotes in both). the search field in the Open dialog is suppose to locate the text in the documents if enclosed in quotes which it does for the Word document but still will not find the pages document. You can click Filenames while entering in the search field and the same occurs, only locates the Word doc, not the Pages doc.
thanks again

I have an intranet web site on a server that I manage. I have
flash forms up and running on a daily basis.
I just recently added another website to the same box, with a
new IP Address. I copied the Flash forms over to the new site, but
none of them work.
The error I get is "lc_id is undefined". on line 175.
There is no lc_id in any of my databases, or any of my cfm
pages. There never has been. I suspect this is an internal file
used by the flash form. Heck, none of the pages in question even
have a line 175!
Is there something that I need to turn on in IIS to get Flash
to work on the new site? Permission changes perhaps?Fixed.
I just had to copy my CFIDE directory from the working site
to the new site. -
Can not find individual element in the Vector
Hi everyone,
I have employeeRecord class .
I have employee Vector.
I have created two employeeRecord and added them to my employee Vector.
I am trying to test my employee Vector by using lgName = "rez704" .
However I do not see any result.
I was expecting the for loop to go through my employee Vector and
find the login name which matches with my test variable lgName.
ANy clues?
many thanks
Vector employeeVector = new Vector();
Enumeration e = empVector.elements();
String nameLog = "rea700";
String fName = "ameri";
String passW = "765";

empolyeeVector.addElement(emp);

String fName2 = "Xamre";
String passW2 = "kv281"

Hi Guys,
No, none of the solution works!!
I tired the following just for testing.
int l = 0;
if ( empVector.elementAt(l).equals(e1.nextElement()) )
<

it only prints the first employee record
Login Name Found
login Name = reza700
Last name = ameri
passWord = 765
in my original question which I had posted, I wanted to compare not the whole Vector object but
only to access loginName whithin the emplyoeeVector and comapare it
with the lgName which is used as testing.
But the example which I had uesed above and it the wrong type of example the wole emplyoee record is found in the emplyoee vector.
any help is appreciated.
thank you again
