We ran the 7.02 updated on 7/9, and ever since, cfchart no longer renders our
flash charts - in IE. I've tried it in Firefox and it works fine. Any
thoughts on why IE would be choking on this? The IE js error message is:

Line: 125, Char: 1, Error:Object Expected, Code: 0

Upon viewing the source, the only thing in that neighborhood of the line
number is this code for the chart(see attached)

Anythoughts?

TIA!

Me too. Seems that with 7.0.2 the CFCHART code generated for the browser now
contains two methods.. one for NOSCRIPT (older?) browswers.. and a 2nd version
directly under the code for <SCRIPT> enabled browsers.

Dead in the water. Can not generate same (simple) CFCHARTS that worked before
the 7.0.2 update.

Hi

I am facing a similar problem (not the same as you all).
The graph does generate, however it shows up as blank.

Have you figured out the problem / workaround?

Thanks in advance.

Same problem here - simple CFchart works FINE in FireFox, broken in IE...apparently after 8 months it's STILL broken.

What's the FIX???

hi

in our case, the graphs came up fine. we had a name parameter in the graph tag, which was creating it, however supressing the display.

A shot in the dark. Verify the existence of the script
[i]/CFIDE/scripts/CF_RunActiveContent.js[/i]. Open IE and

Installing shockwave fixes nothing.

ReCap:

With IE7, Flash 9, ColdFusion 7.02 ,and active_content Hotfix cfchart
will not display in IE7.
Object Expected error with cf_runContent....blah...blah...trying to
get shockwave player for some crazy reason.

Firefox 2 doesn;t bother to look for shockwave and charts display
fine.

As far as I'm am aware there is no fix at this time.
I wonder if anyone at adobe knows this is happening.

My solution to the problem was to strip out the JavaScript and use the
NOSCRIPT code. The following code also includes a fix for when you create a
chart in SSL mode (HTTPS), it alleviates the message that the page contains
secure and non-secure code:

<cfset sChartFormat = "flash">

<cfsavecontent variable="sChartContent">

<cfchart
format = "#sChartFormat#"
...
>
<cfchartseries
...
>
</cfchartseries>
</cfchart>

</cfsavecontent>

<cfif sChartFormat IS "flash">

<cfif CGI.HTTPS IS "on">
<cfset sChartContent = Replace(sChartContent, "http://", "https://",
"all")>
</cfif>

<cfset sChartContent = REReplaceNoCase(sChartContent, "</?NOSCRIPT>", "",
"all")>
<cfset sChartContent = REReplaceNoCase(sChartContent, "(?:<script.*?>)((\n|\
r|.)*?)(?:<\/script>)", "", "all")>

</cfif>

This solution was great. It worked for me. I was getting the problem in IE
with CFAjax (another reason to hate ADOBE).

thanks jerrybucci

Hi CFsolar,

Did you manage to solve this problem? I've just ran into it this morning and
now tearing my hair out.

Thanks
