while on the "subject" of best practice, I have a question re CFC practice.
In the days I made my app, I have a table (simplified) that lists IT servers.
Looks kinda like this:
serverid | servername | servertype |
1 | win01 | 1 |
3 | win09 | 2 |
2 | win06 | 3 |
Now server type was just 1=production, 2=dev, 3=test.
And as such no servertype table was ever made, I just had the cfml convert the
number to name in the cfm pages, like this:
Server Type: <cfswitch... </cfswitch>
Is this a bad practice? am wondering if this way of handling information is too
much "putting business logic into presentation layer" Might I find out in Flex
that I can't display the server type text after retrieving a query result?
Thanks all, enjoying the dialog very much!

I am smack in the middle of the Head First OOA&D book right now, reading it
rather closely (but not doing the exercises yet... Shame on me!).
I can say this book is definitely one to have, although I don't 100% agree
with their approach to discovering requirements. I'd say I actually agree to
only about 50% of their requirements gathering approach... But it could be
that they took their particular route in order not to turn the book into a
Head First Project Management book of some sort. ;)
The actual process of working through what constitutes a class and when and
where you might consider creating new classes or not is actually presented
very well; it's definitely one that I welcome, right next to my Head First
Design Patterns, Head First HTML/CSS/XHTML, Head First Java, and Head First
JSP and Servlets! :)
