Thanks Gary, once again. You don't sleep at all either it seems. And thanks Michael J. Sammut too. Your instructions seem quite clear to me.
I'm not trying to get too cute at the start. I've had problems with things in the past trying to play around with them before I know what's what, so this time, as I learn about FarCry, I'm trying to suppress this instinct and stay with the defaults as far as possible, just doing one thing at a time. There are a lot of new concepts and terminology to learn with this thing. I have to build a new site for the radio station I'm a member of, and FarCry looks perfect for that. At the moment I'm looking at the program guide, which I build from a database, and a CF routine turns the query into a table with colour coding for the type of show, and laid out with varying size cells depending on the duration of the show. (see http://www.hawkradio.org.au/guide.htm for the current version). At present it is written out to a static htm page and uploaded to the boring old static site because we don't have coldfusion there. Now I'm about to move the site to a CFMX6.1 based site, and that makes a lot of things possible, including a flash remoting component in there to give us what's on now and what's coming up next etc with pictures of the presenters and show logos etc. It's a pity the server wasn't ready for me to do the component for Robin's contest. Anyway, for now, all I want to do is take the CF routine that creates the table you see in the current page, and put it in a standard right hand column FarCry page, so I think I have what I need for now. I'll give it a go when I get back to this project tonight and see how it works. This is indeed a helpful list.

And if you have tried that and it isn't working, Mike, we would need some more detail. Just remember, if you want it to appear in some type of template that you are using, you would be best to put your header and footer code into the "include" directory and cause your includedobj file to load that (as you would in something like dmHTML). NOTE: there are three bits you should do...... 1. Ensure you have a template for the include in the dmInclude directory 2. Ensure you have your actual code in the includedObj directory. 3. Hook your include up to a node in the site nav tree.
