1. ColdFusion Settings

1.1 General Options

Field Description:

Set locale

Sets the country/language locale for ColdFusion processing and the page returned to the client. The locale value determines the default format of date, time, number, and currency values, according to language and regional conventions.

By default, ColdFusion uses the JVM locale, and the default JVM locale is the operating system locale.

No Cache Whether caching is required on browser
Replace CR+LF by <br> For memo fields
Default Date Format None (use default locale) , yyyy/mm/dd, mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy
Max File Size (bytes) Maximum file upload size in bytes
Uploaded file dest. path CFMMaker supports file upload to a folder on the server. By design, this path should be a subfolder relative to the folder for the generated scripts. Use slashes "/" as path delimiter, no leading slash. For example, "uploads/".

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the Web server user have read/write access to the folder. In Unix-based server, this means you need to chmod 600 the directory. On Windows NT/2000/Server 2003 with IIS as Web server, you need to right-click the folder and add read/write access for IUSR_<MachineName> on the Security tab.

Session Timeout The length of time in minutes before an idle session is terminated. If blank or 0, default setting (30 minutes) of the server will be used.

3. Security Settings

Field Description:

Advanced Security allows you to assign User Levels to users. Each user level can have different permissions to modify data in each table. Click the "User Levels" and the User Level Setup form will popup for you to define levels:

Select an integer field in your user table as the User Level field and then define your user levels, CFMMaker will then populate the user levels to the User Level field for you to assign to users.

Note that you need to use the hard-coded Administrator Login to log on and assign user levels to users.


4. Generate Settings

Field Description:

Template File HTML/ASP template source (You should never change this until you have downloaded a new template from our web site)
Destination Folder The destination folder where the ASP scripts are to be generated
Output FileName

None - no prefix/suffix is added
Prefix - a prefix is added to all output file names
Suffix - a suffix is added to all output file names

Prefix/Suffix The string to be concatenated to output file names when the Prefix or Suffix option is specified
Lowercase Specify whether output file names are in lowercase
Create virtual directory at http://localhost/<Project Name> Specify whether a virtual directory is created under http://localhost/
Note: Requires IIS and Windows Script Host
Browse after generation Specify whether to open a browser after script generation. URL is http://localhost/<Project Name> by default.

Note that the file name of your project file (CMP file) is used as the project name, you won't be asked for a project name before connecting to a database. Before you name your project name by saving it, CFMMaker uses a temporary name, Project<n>, where n is a number. If you want CFMMaker to create a virtual directory with a specific name, save your project file as that name first.

User Comments on ASPMaker


"Well done all, what ground breakers!!!!"
"You guys are the only people I know in sortware development who seem to get it right every time and actually take the time to listen to their audience requests."

"You don't know what you're missing!"
"I tested this product on one of my existing databases to see what it would produce; in less than 5 minutes I was purchasing a license for ASPMaker. If you code ASP pages from scratch, this will save you over 40 hours of work, easily! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!"

"Essential Tool for REAL webmasters!"
"So easy to use, so affordable. Once I got it, I found more and more uses for it. I am not a programmer, yet I found ASPmaker to be extremely quick and easy to learn."

"Incredible"
"As a VB programmer, I would have to say that you guys have an incredible software. Good for you!!! To write that much code manually, would take days. I recommend this to anyone who is planning on writing code to interact with any ODBC Database. If you understand programming, you will appreciate it very much."
