Hi, The latest version of Speck that we're testing adds support for salted hash passwords, and the portal framework will now automatically salt passwords...
Hi, ... Could you provide some more details about the error and I'll dig into the code to see what could cause that. File name and line number should do the...
Mark, thanks for the quick reply. I am running SQL 2005. 10:58:58.058 - Database Exception - in C:\Inetpub\webapps\speck\tags\api\content\spContentGet.cfm :...
Hi, When spContentGet retrieves an asset column from the database, it gets a number. This is the revision at which the file was uploaded. This number gets...
Mark, thanks for the explanation. I don't think it is a cache issue, but I'll check everything. I knew that CF7 started the cftype thing and I have this...
I've just been tinkering with this and have realised that (in CF8 anyway), it's actually the querySetCell() function that forces type validation. Could you try...
... Ooops, I think I may have misinterpreted that blog post - what I've done is set what was an integer to a string, and that might make a mess of things. Let...
Mark, It was something in the config files of Coldfusion. My old config file were moved to the new directory (cf8 creates a new directory). I think the old...
... Interesting, I'm guessing this meant that server.coldfusion.productversion was reporting cf6 rather than 8, which would mean Speck wouldn't call...
For the first time since I have been using speck I am in need to working with images for a staff directory. I am looking at the code of the content type of...
Hi Graham, ... You shouldn't need to resize within the contentPut method - the asset property will automagically resize images for you if you tell it what the...

Well On Windows 2000 Professional with CF7 MultiServer with a computer that has IE8 installed, if I was to upload a picture I get a Red X. Now if I move to...
... It sounds like it's just an IE8 issue, but it's only affecting the copy of IE8 on the win2K machine, not your other copy. Could you check the security...
Until now I have always used the app.roles text file to allow access to my websites powered by speck. Now I am in need of providing this same thing through a...
Hi Graham, ... Assuming string comparisons are case-sensitive in your database, changing the % to UPPER(%) should solve the problem. ... Speck creates a SQL...
Mark, In my database I have a Group Table which I am using the BitAnd function to determine the level the user has access to. An example is 1 Guest 2...
