The bug list isn't public, and if it is available to anyone outside of macromedia they don't mention it anywhere, or are limited by some kind of nda. We ran into a bug yesterday (gethttpRequestData) that almost cost us a client, now for two hours we banged away at the problem until we figured out it had to be a bug, I searched cf-talk, and was able to confirm it was a known bug, and get working on a fix. Some kind of bug database would probably go a long way towards alleviating some frustration. Java, PHP, and MS all have public bug databases...why can't CF? All we have are the very few technotes which address maybe 1% of outstanding bugs. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| 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 Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
