I think I am at architect level now (in my humblest gesture). hehe But it's funny, about a year ago, the development room was dubbed the "Monkey Cage" heh

No matter how much longer you code, you still can't learn that much more. As time goes along, you start to grow as an architect - realize all the things you should have done before you wrote your code. That's what separates the "code monkeys" from the "architects". --- Billy Cravens -----Original Message----- From: Shawn Grover [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 1:11 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Coldfusion Apps You've Built Almost everything! This happens to all programmers for a couple of reasons. First, we quite often have our hands tied on some of the methods we would like to use (i.e. a client tells you that you CANT use stored procedures, even though everything you (and other programmers) know about the situation says they are the best choice. Secondly, working through a project educates us on both the required routines, and the languages involved. I learn more about CF coding the more I have to write CF code. These two points on their own are enough for all of us to reflect on things that could have been done better. My thoughts....

Like I could think of a hundred places to do things differently, either form CF or from the database design. Obviously it was because of lack of experience Was there anything that you guys have built for past clients that you now know could have been coded better? ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
