ColdFusion 10 - Loading Dynamic JSON for CFCHART 2 months ago

As I mentioned here , CFCHART allows us point to an external file for the JSON configuration string, however, this file needs to be a plain text file - we cannot point to a ColdFusion file to generate the JSON configuration for us. Thanx to some help from Ray Camden , I figured out a …

ColdFusion 10 - A Few Nice 'Quickies' 2 months ago

I thought I would take a break for talking about charting (but I will get back to it soon) to talk about some more 'small' enhancements to ColdFusion 10 that will make out lives just a tad bit easier. [More]

Flexbloggers.org is Down..oops 2 months ago

Just wanted to let people know that Flexbloggers.org is currently unavailable. You see, I am in the process of moving my domains off of GoDaddy and over to Hover . Now, when I started the process, I was smart enough to update the DNS records for the domain, however, I was not smart …

ColdFusion 10 - More Charting Stuff 2 months ago

Here is a cool feature of the new charting in ColdFusion 10. As I have made mention of, the charting engine is using ZingChart 'under the hood' to generate the charts. ZingChart relies on a JSON string for its configuration - everything from what type of chart, to the data contained in …

ColdFusion 10 - Reset CF Administrator Password 2 months ago

ColdFusion 10 - Form Fields With the Same Name 2 months ago

OK, here is a ColdFusion 10 feature that I like. I will admit, its not difficult to mimic this behavior, but its cool none-the-less. We should all be aware of the fact that when you submit a form to ColdFusion for processing, and the form contains multiple form fields with the same …
