Hi All,
I spoke to Eric about this. He was asking about both UI design and asynchronous web 2.0 functionality. I asked him to get back into the swing of things and you all have been great as I knew you would. Hi Charlie, long time to exchange. Larry J. Morrow COO & CTO A-PLUS Community Solutions, Inc.

I couldn't tell if he was talking about actual UI design and layout (as in WYSIWYG IDE's like DW), or he was talking about asynchronous Javascript web 2.0 stuff. Didn't know CFB 2 came in a free version either, thanks for the info, though I have the CS Master suite myself. And you're right about developers having not used DW since forever. I dropped DW back when CFEclipse came out. Graduated from wysiwyg long ago. DW just can't handle what I do now, lol, but then again I haven't used it since I don't know. Besides, jobs and companies use CFB rather than DW nowadays.

That said, CFB (and CFEclipse) don’t really help with UI design (one of Eric’s questions). For that I would note that Dreamweaver (especially DW CS 5.5) has lots of really compelling and easy-to-use features for creating enhanced UIs. It’s not free, no, but again for someone who’s been away as long as Eric, it’s worth pointing out that it’s continued to evolve quite substantially. (Many CF gurus have come out recently, especially with CS 5.5, to note how substantial it’s become, when they themselves had kind of lost track of it the past few releases.) Hope that’s helpful, Eric, and welcome back to the fold. :-) /charlie From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Priest Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2011 12:49 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Software Recommendations? My essentials: jQuery (http://jquery.com/) ValidateThis (http://www.validatethis.org/) cfUniform (http://cfuniform.riaforge.org/) For CF frameworks that like asking what religion or political affiliation... try a few and see which one you like :) Model-Glue, CFWheels, ColdBox, Mach-II and FW/1... For editors - CFEclipse (http://cfeclipse.org/) or ColdFusion Builder (http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion-builder/features.html) CFEclipse is free and a great basic editor. CFBuilder has tighter integration into ColdFusion server. If you haven't used an Eclipse based editor before I'd try both.

For sometime, I was able to follow and develop with various versions of Cold Fusion. I stopped at CFMX 7. A lot has changed since then. Now, it's 2011 and I get the chance to venture back into my programming roots. My question is, with the current UI style (i.e. Facebook, MySpace, YouTube & Dynamic XML) do you guys have any suggestions in terms of software (including frameworks) that would be compatible with Cold Fusion and make "Post and Refresh" old school pages, more up-to date with today's dynamic standards? ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by FusionLink <http://www.fusionlink.com> ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
