The big change was between CFMX (6.0 - which Hal's book was written for) and CFMX 6.1. In CFMX (6.0), there was only the public 'this' scope and no reliable local variables. In CFMX 6.1, you had the public 'this' scope, the private 'variables' scope (well, actually it's more like Java's protected) and the local 'var' declarations. Some best practices are listed here: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/wtg/public/ The Mach II Development Guide has some general OO best practices - not all of it is Mach II specific - and there are all sorts of best practices listed in the CFMX Coding Guidelines (version 3.2 will be published very soon with some small tweaks that relate to CFMX 7). -- Sean A Corfield -- http://corfield.org/ Team Fusebox -- http://fusebox.org/ Got Gmail? -- I have 50, yes 50, invites to give away!
