Hi Kym,

Peter beats me by a few months in terms of using CF, I was in on version 1.5, mid 1996. Had an ISP's Intranet up and running by early '97, we think it is the first real application written in CF, in this country at least.

Might bet you there. I had a B2B ecommerce site for Skansen giftware in 95/96, originally written in CF1.5 then converted to 2.0 [much nicer!] Ran on a dual 200Mzh Pentium Pro machine off a 128K ISDN line. No idea if it's still in existence but I'd guess not.

Probably not :-)

I think you might have beaten us there, for an application at least, the smidgen of code left from the original application can be seen at http://k2o.mbcomms.net.au/index.html, click on the "history" link, and that is CF2 which was the '97 stuff. I'm afraid we have lost the original code with .dbm extensions and all of the rest :-(

Wow! you did training? :-) Actually I recollect doing the advanced course somewhere along the line but I cannot remember when. What I do remember well is the Spectra course with Ben Forta sitting in, that was fun :-)


> So what's the oldest CF site out there that's still running that someone from this list has written?

Think the oldest site I have in existence is the "revamp" of the Telstra product index/CMS system [converted from webDB] which I started working on in late 97 and it went live in Feb 98.

Its a hybrid site, html plus CF for a few action pages like "contactus", and certainly not an application in any sense but we have the pastabilities site dated 12/9/1997.

http://www.pastabilities.com.au/

Its actually quite a nice site if you like pasta and they get recipes sent to them from all over the world, not bad for a completely local manufacturer and supplier :-)
