If this happens, try placing the values in a query (you can do this with CF's query functions, i.e. QueryNew(), QueryAddRow(), QuerySetCell()) and then using the query="" attribute to supply the values that way. Josho 0 0 2005-04-07T11:45:57 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-p64.htm#31033 PDF files frequently contain text in graphics, which cannot be indexed by an application; it can only be read by a human. If this is the case with your PDF files, they will not be indexed. <br /><br />If you cannot select the text in your PDF while in Acrobat Reader, then it isn't textually stored, and thus will not be indexed.

This is true when using CFMX Admin Console or using the <cfindex> tag, and specifying *.pdf files for the extension. We use RedHat ES 2.1. Anyone else seen this behavior? asterix 0 0 2005-01-14T15:37:38 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-p64.htm#20476 You are correct. If type="custom" but you do not specify the query attribute, the key attribute value is some other key value, although not necessarily unique (for example, body might include a snippet of text scraped from an HTML page and key might contain the URL to that page). jrunrandy 1 0 2004-08-25T06:32:32 http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-p64.htm#20448 Docs for <cfindex> don't indicate that the "key" attribute value can be any unique alphanumeric string, and not necessarily a query column name. What is the reality here? skygx 0 0 2004-08-24T11:56:50
