Multiple CFGrids

We are using cfform and tabs to separate each section. We
have multiple sections using CFGrid on the same form. In several of
these grids, we display a date of some sort. Every time we add a
date to more than one grid, the form don't display.
Here's two tabs that are breaking because we have an
expiration_date in accreditations and an insertdate in quizzes.
Any ideas???

What version of ColdFusion are you using? I've seen other
similar problems with MX 7. I believe that many of them were fixed
in the two updates to MX7 that have been released.

Layout Issue using multiple CFGRID

I am trying to get 4Flash Grids to layout side by side. It
appears that there is plenty of room looking at the screen, but
there are scroll bars on the right and bottom. How can I make these
fit and center them as a group?
Thanks.

Hello!
The layout management in OSMF prior to 1.6 sprint 3 was somehow inconsistant in composite elements.
That(I guess) is a problem of layout measurement.
Our player relies on osmf layouting greatly so I have posted a lot here already.
May be it can help you:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/837062
This topic contains referencies to other and to jira:
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FM-1174
There is a "duct tape" proxy attached to jira bug it may help you if you put your composition to that proxy BEFORE settting it to media player.
Since 1.6 sprint 3 the whole layout thing has changed and has become consistent - it does not work as expected at all :O)
But as soon as you are on 1.0 the duct tape proxy may help
Best regards!

Multiple CFGrids Problem

I am creating a ecommerce manager and I am having some
problems with the options part of the site. I allow for 5 options
to be set. Each option can be populated using its own CFGRID (this
is a Flash Form).
When you insert into a grid, if the grid has less enteries
than any grid before it, it will populate the difference with
information from the previous grid. Example: Option A has 5
entires, Option B has 2, when you save the form, Option B is keep
its two rows but it will also get 3 more Option A. It only shows
when the form is submitted.
Below is an example:
I stripped down the code so it will run by itself. It still
shows what it is doing when submitting - look in the cfdump.
<cfdump var="#form#">
<cfset getOptionA =
QueryNew("optionLineCharge,optionLineItemID,optionLineName,optionLocation,productNumber") >
<cfset getOptionB =
QueryNew("optionLineCharge,optionLineItemID,optionLineName,optionLocation,productNumber") >
<cfset getOptionC =
QueryNew("optionLineCharge,optionLineItemID,optionLineName,optionLocation,productNumber") >
<cfset getOptionD =
QueryNew("optionLineCharge,optionLineItemID,optionLineName,optionLocation,productNumber") >
<cfset getOptionE =
QueryNew("optionLineCharge,optionLineItemID,optionLineName,optionLocation,productNumber") >

Embedding image and multiple queries in cfgrid

I have a datagrid that displays a user's work history pulled
from one query. In the original HTML table set up, a status icon
for each work item was displayed as either "New", 'Needs Attention"
or "Archived". This status was determined by using a value from the
first query as a filter in the WHERE clause of the second query:
------------------- Original Query -------------------------
<cfquery datasource="#application.defaultdsn#"
name="qQuestions">
SELECT discussions.dateSubmitted, discussions.discussionID,
discussions.subjectID, discussions.topic, users.firstName + ' ' +
users.lastName AS stName,
subjects.subjectID AS Expr1, subjects.subject
FROM discussions INNER JOIN
users ON discussions.userID = users.userid INNER JOIN
subjects ON discussions.subjectID = subjects.subjectID
WHERE 0=0
<cfif getDiscussionIDs.recordCount GT 0>
AND (
<cfloop query="getDiscussionIDs">
discussions.discussionID = #getDiscussionIDs.discussionID#
<cfif getDiscussionIDs.currentRow NEQ
getDiscussionIDs.recordCount>OR</cfif>
</cfloop>
<cfelse>
AND 0=1
</cfquery>
------------------------ Queries used to determine status
<cfquery datasource="#application.defaultdsn#"
name="LatestMessage">
SELECT Max(discussionPosts.postID) AS NewestMessage
FROM discussionPosts
WHERE discussionPosts.discussionID =
#qQuestions.discussionID#
</cfquery>
<cfset variables.userTypetoView = "tutor">

<cfquery datasource="#application.defaultdsn#"
name="getLastInfo">
SELECT discussionPosts.userType,
discussionPosts.dateSubmitted, discussionPosts.viewerID
FROM discussionPosts
WHERE discussionPosts.postID = #LatestMessage.NewestMessage#
</cfquery>
My question is how can I emulate this same status icon setup
in a cfgrid? I used the following ActionScript to create a new
column in the grid and return a string. However, this new column
must logically know how to display the correct status IMAGE for
each corresponding row. As you can see, there are no database
tables for storing the status - which would have made this much
easier.
function setStat(){
eQArchive.getColumnAt(1).labelFunction = statIcon;
function statIcon(item
bject, columnName:String): String{
if (item[columnName] != undefined) {
return asIcon;
else {
return "";
I also tried using the toScript() function in CF7 to see if I
can set a variable equal to the appropriate image and then return
it in the above script, but this is where I am at a loss.
<cfif getLastInfo.recordCount GT 0 AND
Trim(getLastInfo.userType) EQ "tutor">
<cfset stat = "/images/docArchive.jpg">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<cfoutput>var #toScript(getLastInfo, "asIcon",
True)#;</cfoutput>
</script>
<cfelseif getLastInfo.viewerID EQ session.tutorID>
<cfset stat = "/images/docNew.jpg">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<cfoutput>var #toScript(getLastInfo, "asIcon",
True)#;</cfoutput>
</script>
<cfelse>
<cfset stat = "Green">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<cfoutput>var #toScript(getLastInfo, "asIcon",
True)#;</cfoutput>
</script>
</cfif>
Any ideas on how to get this working is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Cfgrid updating issue with multiple records

I have a cfgrid within cfform, it fetches the records and shown in the screen properly. refer screenshot.
have a new field "sortfield" as a editable field and updating the record as 1,2,3,4 (instead - 1,6,2,4) but after updated in the db. The datas updated differently and not clearly updating the relevant data in the relevant record in the sort field. value was shuffled sometimes.
used the below code:

Dynamically Hiding a Column in a CFGRID

Here's the situation: I've got a flash form with a cfgrid.
That grid has 4 columns. Is it possible to click a separate button
in the form and hide/show one of the grid columns, similar to
altering the "display" attribute of the <cfgridcolumn> tag? I
know it's possible to click a button and hide the entire grid...
Any help or comments would be most appreciated!

Just FYI: I think I solved this by adjusting the column
widths dynamically via Actionscript. There was something odd about
how the grid handled the widths, though. I had to move the column
all the way to the right in the grid and then set it's width to a
negative value to "hide" it, which actually just pushed it off the
screen.
Let me know if you're still having trouble and I can dig up
the code, but it probably won't be that useful if you have to hide
multiple columns.

Flash CFGRID Insert Row Problem

I think others have posted similar issues, but I've been
unable to find a resolution to it. I have a Flash grid in an
Accordion page that I need users to be able to insert data into.
Most of the time, the grid will be empty when the user enters data.
I've tried using the picturebar insert button, I've tried using
onClick="GridData.insertRow(mygrid);". I even tried a fairly
extensive script that seemed to be a timer that would detect a
double click to insert. None of these work well. The
onClick="GridData.insertRow(mygrid);" is the best in that I only
have to click a column field about 3 times before I can enter data
in the field. Multiple clicks to activate the field is just not
useable.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I have the same problem. The suggestion you gace did not work as it works only for flash grids. I am using an HTML grid.I just want to set a default value of OLST to the Client column. Please help!

Hi, the code above using cfgrid in flash format used to
display perfectly. But after some time, without changing the code,
cfgrid is not displaying anymore. Any reasons why this is
happening? Thanks.

What error do you see? Anything?
Try tracing the page request by using coldfusion/jrun's
sniffer.exe,
Charles, or some other
tool. See what is going on. If the applet is starting to load,
enable the java console and review the errors there.
Does this issue happen on multiple client machines or just
one? What version of CFMX7 are you using (run sysinfo from
cfadmin).

CFgrid, href and cfgridkey

We have a current application in Mach-ii that is over 100,000
lines and would like to use CFgrid in CF8. What we don't want to do
is to go back and touch perfectly good code, in multiple places,
just to accommodate the url "cfgridkey". We want to use the proper
variable in the URL.
I thought I had seen a description of using a JavaScript
function to do this but now I cant find it.
Can anyone Help?
thanks,
Sam

I "dont" want the cfgridkey term in the URL. I want something
like ...index.cfm?my_id=7
Not ...index.cfm?cfgridkey=7

Cfselect, cfinvoke, cfgrid in flash forms

In an MX7.02 cfform format="flash"
I would like a user to select an option in a cfselect. (e.g.
name)
The selected value would be passed to a cfinvokeargument
the cfc returns the query results to a cfgrid
get agent names....
<CFINVOKE COMPONENT="agentQA"
METHOD="getAgents"
RETURNVARIABLE="aData">
populate cfselect....
<cfselect label="Agent" visable="yes" name="agent"
query="aData" value="message_author" display="message_author">
</cfselect>
query messages posted by the selected agent...
<CFINVOKE COMPONENT="agentQA"
METHOD="getquery"
RETURNVARIABLE="qData">
<cfinvokeargument name="agent" value="??????????????">
</cfinvoke>
don't know how to bind the selected agent name to the
argument????????
output only the selected agent's messages to messagesgrid
<cfgrid format="flash" width="100%" height="100%"
name="messagegrid" query="qData" rowheaders="false">
</cfgrid>
Any suggestions? I'm open to a different approach since I'm
just learning flash forms in CF.
Thanks,
Don

Using the
selected="[your value]" argument.
This can be a value from a query.
For instance, try the example in
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00000331.htm
but add
selected="4" to the cfselect tag
i.e.:
<cfselect

(new) flash cdfrid with multiple choices

My cfgrid allows the user to select several options. What I need to know is how to capture those selections. Here's the grid code:
<cfgrid name='art_grid' format='flash' selectOnLode='no' selectMode='edit' query='GetArticles'>
     <cfgridcolumn name='ArticleIndex' select='yes' values='1' type='boolean' display='yes'>
     <cfgridcolumn name='ArticleName' select='no'>
</cfgrid>
I've tried a cfselect and a cfset (both with selectedItem and selectedIndex); both receiving the same error: You have attempted to dereference a scalar variable of type class java.lang.String as a structure with members.
I created a structure to hold the responses and then tried to populate it with:
<cfloop collection='#art_grid.selectedItem# item='i'>
     <cfset ArtStruct[i]='#art_grid.selectedItem.ArticleName[i]#'>
</cfloop>
What should I use instead? (Yes, I googled the error message and this is where I got the structure idea.)

Kind of a weird dump using <cfdump var='#art_grid#'>    (The form.art_grid was undefined...)

Interesting, but I don't understand it.

Unable to sort groupField in cfgrid

in a html grid, when i group by a column of type INT, cfgrid doesn't sort correctly:
it prefixes the column value with the column header and it sorts alpha numerically instead of numerically.
let's say, if column name is mySequence, column header is My Sequence and the group by values retrieved are 14 and 3, it will sort incorrectly:
My Sequence 14
My Sequence 3
is there a fix for that?
thanks

Do you still have the greyed out fields issue? The permissions tip should be a complete fix for that.
Changes that revert themselves with mp3 files might be down to multiple tags.
Multiple tags
The ID3 specification allow files to have multiple tags in different versions and languages, but iTunes only works properly with single tags. When multiple tags are present it can sometimes fail to apply updates to the tag that it reads back (presumably updating one of the others in the file) and it is also possible that iPod & iTunes may have different rules for which tag they give priority to. This could lead to situations in which everything is properly organised in iTunes but then inexplicably falls apart on an iPod. There are 3rd party tag editors that can manipulate multiple tags but I don't have a recommendation offhand. A workaround in iTunes is to use right-click context menu Convert ID3 Tags... > None a few times to remove all existing tags and then Convert ID3 Tags... > v2.3 to build a fresh tag with the information still held in the iTunes database. I've read in the past that iTunes isn't fully compliant with the v2.4 spec. although this may no longer be the case, however support for v2.3 is widespread so I would suggest using v2.3 over v2.4.
iTunes Store metadata
If you notice that changes you've made to purchased tracks revert to the original iTunes Store metadata then...
In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Store and turn off
Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
Share details about your library with Apple
On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
Show All Music
Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data.
See also Getting iTunes & Windows Media Player to play nicely just in case WMP is involved, though that is usually a one time problem.
And see Grouping tracks into albums for advice on the organizing the library once your changes will stick.

Cfgrid within an html table... possible?

I'm trying to use an HTML table layout to "organize" several
components, one of which is an cfgrid... but nothing shows up, the
cfgrid doesn't populate. In fact, in the following example, only
the first row of the HTML table is painted in the browser.
here's a sample:
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td> some title </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<cfquery name="getEmp" datasource="MYDSN">
select * from emp
</cfquery>
<cfform format="flash" skin="haloSilver">
<cfgrid name="empGrid" query="getEmp"
rowheaders="false">
<cfgridcolumn name="First" header="First Name"
width="120">
<cfgridcolumn name="Last" header="Last Name"
width="120">
</cfgrid>
</cfform>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
This situation applies to multiple queries, and works very
well when you remove the <table> elements altogether... I
haven't been able to find anything to support this method or not
support it...
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,

CF9 Email multiple people from a CF grid selection

Hello everyone. As the name suggests i am trying to figure out in CF9 over MySQL how to send multiple emails based on selected records from a grid.
I have a table called sstblemailnewmembers
this has fields:
fldemailid (Int + Auto Incr)
fldemail (TEXT)
fldsent (DATE)
CHECKED (SET 'true','false' DEFAULT false)
I then have a cf query in my page called emailnewmembers.cfm
<cfquery name="emailnewmembers" datasource="SAPLIVE">
SELECT fldemailID, fldemail, fldsent, CHECKED
FROM sstblemailnewmembers
</cfquery>
So far so good (i think)
I then have a form defined:
<cfform action="AdminTransfer.cfm"
width="1170"
method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data"
format="Flash"
preloader="true"
style="backgroundAlpha: 0;"
wmode="transparent"
timeout="3000"
name="adminhome"
onload="loadAS();">
the onload="loadAS();" bit is used so I can select multiple records using this script which is the next bit to be defined:
<cfformitem type="script">
function loadAS(){
_root.myGrid.multipleSelection = true;
</cfformitem>
and finally on this page we have the grid itself and the submit button as below:
<cfgrid name="myGrid"
selectmode="edit"
query="emailnewmembers"
rowheaders="no">
<cfgridcolumn name="CHECKED" header="Select" type="boolean">
<cfgridcolumn name="fldemailID" header="Email ID">
<cfgridcolumn name="fldemail" header="Email Addrerss">
<cfgridcolumn name="fldsent" header="Date Sent">
</cfgrid>
<cfinput type="submit"
name="sendemailnewmembers"
value="Send Emails"
style="#buttonStyle#">
So far so good i guess?
The submit button calls the action page defined in the form tag.
This is what I have so far defined in the action page "admintransfer.cfm"...
<cfif isdefined("FORM.endemailnewmembers")>
<cfloop index = "Counter" from = "1" to =
    #arraylen(Form.emails.CHECKED)#>
    <cfif Form.emails.CHECKED[counter] is "true">
      <cfquery name="emailnewmembers"
        datasource="SAPLIVE">
        UPDATE sstblemailnewmembers
        SET
        fldsent = NOW()
       </cfquery>
        <cfmail
        to = "#Form.fldemail#"
        from = "[email protected]"
        subject = "Welcome New Member">
        Dear New Member...
        </cfmail>
    </cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfif>
So, if I select 3 records an email is getting sent 3 times to the last email address of the last record I select.
I am assuming there is something wrong with the loop and probably a better way to do this but I am quite new and this is the best I can come up with so if anyone cares to point me in the right direction I would be enormously gratful indeed

You could use this script. It will put the adresses in the To field, so you could either modify the script or just drag them across to the Bcc field.
