I didn't intend it to be negative, but if you read John Paul Ashenfelter's post, which is the one I responded to, I think the reason all of the modifications take place is because it is not as open as people would like. As far as I'm concerned, I don't use it so that doesn't really matter to me. The reason I don't use it is because over the years I've come up with my own framework, which is still evolving. If I find a limitation, I figure out how to build the necessary functionality in without re-writing mass amounts of code. I like my framework, which is why I use it. It allows me to code apps very efficiently. Like I said, it's evolved over time because nothing is ever perfect, which ties in with my original point that if there are so many tweaks and variations to FB, then there's a good bet that people aren't getting everything they need from it as it's written. Making it more open is up to the creators, or you can create your own variation (the ones that were mentioned by John), but this just fragments the code-base even more and leads back to my original conclusion about troubleshooting apps in general. --Andy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq 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 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
