Hello Bruno, I just noticed you mentioned the bit about Paul Hastings and Cold Fusion and I just wanted to let you know or if there are any other Cold Fusion developers on the list that I just released an OS Cold Fusion set of components yesterday at http://pdfIT.riaforge.org, if anyone is interested. I am planning on continuing to add additional iText features and code improvements as I have the time.

See the regular expressions by publishers O'Reilly. I've been thinking of the free DZone Refcardz too: http://refcardz.dzone.com/ I don't think people need an actual book as pocket reference, I think a PDF listing the most important API methods would be sufficient. > I would expect a great deal of users use data base interfaces and sections on this with the appropriate examples would be great.

Maybe that's something for book 3, maybe we should have "guest authors" for that, because I'm not best placed to write about Cold Fusion (the last time I wrote Cold Fusion code was back in 1998). > > All the best > > Glenn Hinks > Thank you for your suggestions. br, Bruno ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php Check the site with examples before you ask questions: http://www.1t3xt.info/examples/ You can also search the keywords list: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/keywords/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php Check the site with examples before you ask questions: http://www.1t3xt.info/examples/ You can also search the keywords list: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/keywords/
