> Sir Issac (ha ha ha) Newton, yea... :) Ironic, you know the name means laughter. :)
One S to A's tho... Isaac Newton, Isaac Aasimov, Isaac Hayes (who did the voice of the chef on South Park), Isaac son of Abraham Amazingly the number of people who spell it correctly are measured in parts per million. Everyone (and I do mean everyone) spells it "ssa". It's got to be some weird nlp or subliminal language thing that makes everyone want to spell it the other way. At least it's consistent -- people use the double-s immediately after being informed that there's only one... and think when they do it that they've just followed my instructions. ;P My first name is completely unpredictable. :) > IMHO... > If you look at the non static CFC, the first thing that > happens is the initialization of the property > instance.Roles="public". > The method Sean calls is passing back the property to the > place he invokes it.

I've paid more attention to the fact that there was a known bug than what the specific issue was, so I probably did misread it the first time but he was originally saying he couldn't set shared scope variables with a CFC (and he may have just been confused about what was going on too)... I do plan to at least dabble in CFC's in the future, but I'm busy enough day to day that I just don't feel like taking the time to really get to know them when I know that there are things that others are currently finding frustrating and making workarounds for that MM will fix soon. I just don't want to waste any of my own time or energy building work arounds that won't be necessary in 2004. To me just knowing that everything I do now will be irrelevant when I die is bad enough -- I chose the wrong profession to care about the lasting value of my work. :) > I agree that OO is not the only solution to everything, > BUT with the idea of > separating Business Logic from my front-End cool things > start to happen. > The GUI becomes, then, a skin.
