The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Avoid producing pop-up blocker warning on coldfusion webserver.

Asked by BellHop in ColdFusion Application Server, ColdFusion Studio

Tags: blocker, popup, avoid, coldfusion

Here's a good challenge. I doubt anyone can find a good solution unless you're a Wizard or Sage!

The following code is creating a popup block warning in Internet Explorer and probably with other pop-up blocker programs. While technically a popup I suppose, the javascript is harmless. But to the standard surfer, it looks as though the page may be potentially dangerous, or at least annoying. It is important to us to not appear as such, but we also need the info.

I need the code to determine screen information so that images in a table row will display correctly, that is, three to a row, or more if their screen resolution is high enough. The higher the screen resolution, the more images which can be displayed in a column, and the better the page can be organized. I also understand other browsers may not be able to get this info. Not a problem. We do what we can.

We cannot use a frameset, or rather, will not.

I need alternative code which will get the same information but won't toss give a pop-up warning.  I can accept different javascript or even better yet, coldfusion code / sql query. But it's far beyond my abilities. We're using CF5, SQL2000, and IIS5 on Win2000 Server.



This code resides on our internet web server and creates a popup in IE (when blocker enabled, of course).

<cfsavecontent variable="screenInfoOutput">
      <cfoutput>
      <script Language="JavaScript">
      <!--
      if ((screen.width) && (screen.height) && (screen.colorDepth)) {
         info = 'width=' + screen.width + '&height=' + screen.height + '&depth=' + screen.colorDepth;
         msgWindow=window.open('/user_update/update_screen_info.cfm?' + info,'InfoWindow','height=1,width=1,top=2000,left=2000,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no');
      }
      //-->
      </script>
      </cfoutput>
      </cfsavecontent>
      <cfhtmlhead text="#screenInfoOutput#">
