Looks nice Erik - lots of colours and table borders - have you been taking
lessons from you-know-who?
Along the same sort of lines, but further down the line, in a dev/test/live
situation, i use a UDF to ensure i don't send out mails to the wrong person
while deving and testing.
Something like:
in the "application.cfm" (or whatever the equivalent):
<cfscript>
function fn_tmp_liveemail(mailaddress) {
return mailaddress;
}
function fn_tmp_testmail(mailaddress) {
return '[#mailaddress#] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>';
}
function fn_tmp_devemail(mailaddress) {
return '[#mailaddress#] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>';
}
switch(request.site_status)
{
case "live":
{
fn_email = fn_tmp_liveemail;
break;
}
case "test":
{
fn_email = fn_tmp_testmail;
break;
}
case "dev":
{
fn_email = fn_tmp_testmail;
break;
}
} //end switch
</cfscript>
Then whereever i use cfmail and don't want to actually send out the mail:
<cfmail to="#fn_email('[EMAIL PROTECTED]')#" etc...

ps thanks to www.fusium.com for the "realname <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" tip....
