 Stability, speed and connectivity issues are the focus.

Due to the Cygwin compatibilty layer the performance is clearly less as 
under the *nix of your choice. I further encountered some problems in 
getting it to run as a service, although with some legwork you can get 
it to work.
Once you have it running, connectivity is about as easy as it gets:

For development it is OK, for production you should go for one of the 
other supported platforms. If you can wait, the native Windows port is 
currently in Beta 2, but it is a separate branch from the current 7.3 
Beta 1 so I am not so sure on the timeframe.

How reliable is the Coldfusion Server ???

2002-09-06 Thread Ian Vaughan

Hi

How reliable is the Coldfusion server, I am getting the following error
messages quite regular from Coldfusion Server 4.5 on Solaris.

Has anybody else on this list, had these problems and what can you do to
resolve this?

Error Occurred While Processing Request
  Error Diagnostic Information
  An error occurred while attempting to establish a connection to the
server.

  The most likely cause of this problem is that the server is not
currently running. Verify that the server is running and restart it if
necessary.

  Unix error number 146 occurred: Connection refused

Disturbing trends

2002-09-06 Thread Jochem van Dieten

When browsing through my cf-community folder I discovered a disturbing 
trend: more and more messages appear to be off-topic. People with 
Oracle, ASP vs. CF, cfregistry, CF and Java problems seem to believe 
this list is the appropriate channel to ask for help. With all these 
messages, the signal to noise ratio has dropped significantly. Can we 
please keep the techno-talk at cf-talk?

And I also have a relevant and on-topic contribution: Dutch politics.
Some of you might believe that over here in this small, tolerant, 
polite, yaddayaddayadda country everything is great. It isn't, it just 
doesn't make headlines everywhere over the world. Some of the recent 
news items here make for another disturbing trend:

- majority of parliament wants to amend law to allow forcibly feeding 
of people in hunger strike

- police arrests girlfriend of murder suspect on charges of having 
dangerous substances in the house (thinner, spiritus and sewer 
deblokker), after having threatened him they would harass her if he 
refused to confess

- Dutch party wants to abolish the right to remain silent

- Dutch minister proposes to deport citizens, but only certain etnic 
groups

There was this song in the charts about 2 years back about the closest 
place one could move to where things were still normal being Pluto. It 
must have been a prophecy.

Take care, and don't forget to avoid this place,

Forcing Output to a specified amount of space

2002-09-06 Thread Les Mizzell

I'm trying to force output to contain a specific number of characters, or be
padded with spaces to equal the number of needed characters. I was under the
impression that the following (from a previous response to this question):

cfoutput
1.#LJustify(MyVar1,15)#2.#LJustify(MyVar2,15)#endofoutput
3.#LJustify(MyVar3,15)#4.#LJustify(MyVar4,15)#endofoutput
/cfoutput

Would produce output like:

1.myvar1 2.variable2out   endofoutput
3.another var4.var4output endofoutput

..with exactly 15 spaces being used when outputting each variable. However,
it doesn't work. If myvar1 is only 7 characters, then that's all the space
it occupies on output, not 15 like I need. So my output ends up like this
instead:

1.myvar12.variable2outendofoutput
3.another var4.var4outputendofoutput

So, since that doesn't work, exactly what do I need to use to insure that
myvar1 occupies exactly the amount of defined space?

Suggestions?

TIA

Ahhhadding the pre tag did the trick.

Had another wierd one going on that this fixed as well.  Given a Social
Security Number as input

#Replace(SSN,'-','',all)#

was returning 123 45 6789 when I needed 123456789.

Adding the pre tag fixed that as well.

Uh, somebody want to explain WHY?  Especially the SSN number?  Shouldn't
#Replace(SSN,'-','',all)# return what I wanted without pre tags?

Hmm

The page in question is producing output specific to input into a financial

RE: bug tracking software.

We use Anomaly Tracking System (ATS) from Microsoft.  It was included free

you to create user defined fields and choose what to display and not
display.  Pretty simple.

I know there is a web based version that can be downloaded from Microsoft.

There is a way to preview your pages. Under the View menu, go to Live Data and Live 
Data
Settings. Once you get the Live Data Settings configured, you can preview your pages,  
with
live data from a database :-) It's pretty nice. I do agree with it being slow overall 
though. 
As long as I'm developing locally, things are fine, actually great. Once I shift over 
to a development

Re: How reliable is the Coldfusion Server ???

2002-09-06 Thread Pablo Varando

This usually means that you are having problems with your configurations.

Usually happens when too many timeouts or errors take place on the server.
(Files that are being runned).

When I was at CFM-Resources we used to have similar problems on the free
servers and we modified a few settings changes and it dissapeared
completely.

Try setting a lower timeout requests period, also what do you have the
simultaneous requests set to? last thing how much Template cache are you
allowing CF to work with?

 currently running. Verify that the server is running and restart it if
 necessary.

CFTOKEN not being set

2002-09-06 Thread Bill Davies

Hi

I have an app defined like this:
  cfapplication name=appName sessionmanagement=Yes
setclientcookies=No

On the first page a user hits, I have a link with cftoken appended:
  href = frameIndex.cfm?thisAction=buying01cftoken=#CFTOKEN#cfid=#CFID#

Some users are getting an unknown variable error for cftoken.

Any ideas what's happening, what I should do?

Thanks.

OT: ecommerce live chat case study

2002-09-06 Thread I-Lin Kuo

  Has anybody every implemented a live chat? I'm
thinking of adding chat capability to an e-commerce
site so customers can ask questions as they shop
without picking up a phone.
  How difficult is it?
  Did you develop it yourself or use some commercial
software?

I would look into FlashMX to implement this. An alternative would be something like 
live help which you can view an example here: http://www.hostmysite.com/support.hms

I think the company that provides this is www.humanclick.com

CF + DATABASE + Unicode?

2002-09-06 Thread Roberts Freimuts

Well it turns out the CFCONTENT tag did not help me get ColdFusion to pass 
Unicode text from an MSACCESS 2000 database to HTML.

It took a while to test because my CF server admin has the CFCONTENT tag 
disabled. I was able to get it turned on for the test.

Does anyone out there use CF to pass Unicode to HTML?
How do you do it?
What database do you use?

Dimitry,

CFserver 4.5.

MSACCESS 2000 itself understands Unicode, but I can't seem to get it to 
pass it's knowledge through CF to HTML.

That is why I ask what databases others have had success with.

CF MX:
- the big iron databases work.
- free open source category:
 - PostgreSQL works (use it myself)
 - SAPdb works,
 - FireBird should be real soon now (Paul?)

Access works, but the drivers don't, so unless you want to go out and 
buy your own JDBC drivers ($900 I think), Access is not an option.

This usually means that you are having problems with your configurations.

Usually happens when too many timeouts or errors take place on the server.
(Files that are being runned).

When I was at CFM-Resources we used to have similar problems on the free
servers and we modified a few settings changes and it dissapeared
completely.

Try setting a lower timeout requests period, also what do you have the
simultaneous requests set to? last thing how much Template cache are you
allowing CF to work with?

Re: CF + DATABASE + Unicode?

2002-09-06 Thread DmitryM

I've been looking for a long time to solve the same problem and I found
official statement of MM oficial that Microsoft Acceess doesn't have UNICODE
support.
I looked for working with cyrillic characters (russian) and the only way I
found was to get SQL Server.

 Which version of CF do you use?
  
  Access doesn't anderstand UNICODE.
  Use other databases: SQLServer, MySQL and others.

 Dimitry,

 CFserver 4.5.

 MSACCESS 2000 itself understands Unicode, but I can't seem to get it to
 pass it's knowledge through CF to HTML.

 That is why I ask what databases others have had success with.

Re: OT: ecommerce live chat case study

2002-09-06 Thread Eric Dawson

I had the free version of human click running on a bunch of sites, and I 
would say it was an impact addition.

My sites we all smaller, but I could watch as people were on the server, and 
push a request to chat if I wanted...

with IP address, and other tricks you could be pretty smart about who the 
person was - I found it pretty handy for getting immediate feedback.

and the chat was nice too.

   How difficult is it?

Re: Where is javac? [Now OS/X redux]

2002-09-06 Thread Joshua Miller

I don't think it's completely scientific to assume that your company 
is the norm. Our company has 300 computers and about 100 of 
them are Macs ... so with your logic applied here, one out of every 
three computers is a Mac - that's a pretty solid ratio.

Unfortunately you can't assume that your environment is the norm 
- it depends a lot on the type of company you work for and the IT 
staff that does the purchasing.

RE: Where is javac? [Now OS/X redux]

2002-09-06 Thread Joshua Miller

What I was getting at was that a lot more people would use Mac 
hardware if they could run the things they want. I would love to 
setup some XServers for our application hosting, but since CF 
doesn't run on it, it would be a foolish purchase. I know there are 
other things that do run on Mac, but switching our entire code base 
just to run Macs would be equally foolish. This has always been 
the downfall of the Mac - they're excellent (in my opinion superior) 
quality and they're relatively inexpensive and they're enormously 
more pleasing to use - but if vendors don't write software for them, 
then people aren't going to use them. I imagine this played a large 
role in OSX being built on Unix - so it's easier for vendors to port 
software to the Mac, thus making it more viable.

Alas, the industry is not necessarily driven by the best quality 
hardware/software, simply the most marketable and most widely 
used. It's unfortunate for us, the developers who know and love 
Macs, and for the end-users who really don't know what they're 
missing because Windows has been shoved down their throats 
for as long as they can remember.

Re: CF + DATABASE + Unicode?

2002-09-06 Thread Dick Applebaum

You might want to check out OpenLink Software:

 http://www.openlinksw.com/

They have several approaches/drivers that allow you to interface 
MS-Access.

I plan to experiment with some of their drivers to see If I can 
periodically interface to Offline MS-Access databases with CFMX Linux 
which has no MS-Access driver.

The OpenLink people have pretty much convinced me that it can be done, 
and at a reasonable cost.

The OpenLink people have been quite willing to help in any way that 
they can.

Please post any results here, to the list -- because it is ubiquitous, 
there is an on-going need to interface MS-Access from other than 
Microsoft platforms.

this is such a tired thread, that gets belaboured over and over

I am putting together a proposal for an organization.

What I really need are some really good reasons why I use ColdFusion and
what the benefits of CF are vs. other things like Java, JSP, and ASP.


Thanks,

Hi everyone,
 Recently my boss has been telling me that some customers who 
we sent an
email promotion to have called back and told him that they 
could not get
to the url that we are sending to them in the email, I had 
one customer
forward me the email he sent and I noticed that the url wrapped to the
next line and was not clickable at that point. I did some 
test messages
internally and could not reproduce the problem.  Has anyone 
encountered
this and come up with a solution? I guess using a shorter url 
might work
but I need to pass some parameters in that url string.
 
Thanks,

 Well it turns out the CFCONTENT tag did not help me get ColdFusion to pass
 Unicode text from an MSACCESS 2000 database to HTML.

mx is the best choice for cf for I81N except that the datadirect sequel link
middleware for access won't speak unicode. as far as db's go most any big
iron db will support unicode--sql server 7, 2k, oracle, etc.

Re: CF + DATABASE + Unicode?

 Access suports unicode (as of version 2000 I think). It is just that MS
 does not want to make JDBC drivers for it. Must be something about Java
 being a Sun invention.

no, they let datadirect build them a JDBC driver for sql server. this access
situation is just strange...a .NET thing?

The DRK does contain some CF stuff:

some CFCs: SMTP  POP,  a stock quote CFC (included w/ a sample apps)

Dreamweaver extensions for CFers:
*CF XHTML Editor
*Extra File Function Toolbar (OK, not specific to CF, but has some of the file 
functions CF Studio users have been asking for, like close-all, duplicate file, and 
others)

Flash MX DataGrid component

And an archive of all the CF content from DesDev, including articles, whitepapers, 
tutorials, and columns.

We're definately going to expand the CF content in future DRK offerings.

none. cf4.5 doesn't support unicode, cf5 kind of did by not by design.
 
 You are using SQL Server? Not just SQL or MySQL?

Hello all,

I am running CFMX on WindowsXP Pro using the CF built in web server.

I have a problem with label formatting in a chart.  I am trying to produce a Gantt 
Chart.  I want my Y axis labels to be dates within a specified range.  I have set 
them to the range and the labelformat attribute to date, but all the labels show up 
as 12/31/69.  I have tried adding an offset thinking it was an epoch date issue 
without any difference in result.  When I switch the labelformat to number, the 
values are valid date serial values.  How do I get dates to show up as Y Axis labels?

The pertinent portion of the code follows.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


cfset StartDate = CreateDate(2002, 1, 1)
cfset EndDate = CreateDate(2002, 12, 31)
cfset NoWeeks = DateDiff(w, StartDate, EndDate)
cfchart format=flash scalefrom=#StartDate# scaleto=#EndDate# 
gridlines=#NoWeeks + 1# seriesplacement=stacked showxgridlines=no 
showygridlines=yes showborder=yes fontbold=no fontitalic=no 
labelformat=number yaxistitle=Duration show3d=no rotated=yes sortxaxis=no 
showlegend=no showmarkers=yes chartheight=400 chartwidth=1400

Cfmodule and Links

2002-09-06 Thread Michael Wilson

Hi all,

My apologies in advance; I am sure this has been discussed before and I
have tried searching the archives with no luck.

I have a directory structure something like this:

TEST CODE (root)
resources (sub dir of root)
includes (sub directory of resources) 
cfmodule1.cfm
cfmodule2.cfm

dir1 (sub directory of root) 
template1.cfm

dir2 (sub directory of dir1) 
template2.cfm

dir3 (sub directory of dir2) 
template3.cfm

How does one place links (navigation perhaps) in either cfmodule1.cfm or
cfmodule2.cfm, and resolve them to work properly when cfmoduleed into
template1.cfm, template2.cfm and template3.cfm? Is there a custom tag or
a resource you can point me to for more information on this?

Am I making any sense?

Best regards,
Michael Wilson - IQMax

RE: Where is javac? [Now OS/X redux]

2002-09-06 Thread Matt Liotta

I'm sorry, but nothing -- Windows, Mac, Solaris, etc -- can touch the
value and performance offered by Linux for 1-2 proc server software.
There is simply no need to port it to Mac OS as the majority of servers
in the datacenter will be on Linux within the next 5 years. Mac's will
continue to have their 10% of desktop users niche, but will never make
any impact on the datacenter.

 Subject: RE: Where is javac? [Now OS/X redux]
 
 What I was getting at was that a lot more people would use Mac
 hardware if they could run the things they want. I would love to
 setup some XServers for our application hosting, but since CF
 doesn't run on it, it would be a foolish purchase. I know there are
 other things that do run on Mac, but switching our entire code base
 just to run Macs would be equally foolish. This has always been
 the downfall of the Mac - they're excellent (in my opinion superior)
 quality and they're relatively inexpensive and they're enormously
 more pleasing to use - but if vendors don't write software for them,
 then people aren't going to use them. I imagine this played a large
 role in OSX being built on Unix - so it's easier for vendors to port
 software to the Mac, thus making it more viable.
 
 Alas, the industry is not necessarily driven by the best quality
 hardware/software, simply the most marketable and most widely
 used. It's unfortunate for us, the developers who know and love
 Macs, and for the end-users who really don't know what they're
 missing because Windows has been shoved down their throats
 for as long as they can remember.

We are in the early planning stages for the next version of the DRK, and
will definitely planning on having more CF content on it.

If you have any suggestions, please send them to us through:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/wishform/?6213=26

i.e., what type of content, components, resources would you like to see
on there?

Also, there is some CF related content on the disks.

There are three flash / flash remoting / cf sample applications (one
stock charting, and 2 email). These include some email and stock
components.

Finally, there is also a complete archive of the Designer and Developer
center, including the ColdFusion Application Development Center.

Re: Question about url's in emails

2002-09-06 Thread Steven Wojciechowski

you could send it as an HTML email.  formatting can be kept basic so it does
not look unusual but you can then you A HREF tags for the links - also
allowing you to hide long, ugly URLS.

Most emails I receive these days are in HTML format so I doubt anyone would

if it does unicode, that alone would be worth the $99 (ie if it really

Re: Cfmodule and Links

2002-09-06 Thread Paul Giesenhagen

Not sure if I am reading your question correctly, but 

There may be other solutions but absolute links always seem to cover every
base!

http://www.domain.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/template.cfm

OR

/dir1/dir2/dir3/template.cfm

 Hi all,

 My apologies in advance; I am sure this has been discussed before and I
 have tried searching the archives with no luck.

 I have a directory structure something like this:

 TEST CODE (root)
 resources (sub dir of root)
 includes (sub directory of resources)
 cfmodule1.cfm
 cfmodule2.cfm

 dir1 (sub directory of root)
 template1.cfm

 dir2 (sub directory of dir1)
 template2.cfm

 dir3 (sub directory of dir2)
 template3.cfm

 How does one place links (navigation perhaps) in either cfmodule1.cfm or
 cfmodule2.cfm, and resolve them to work properly when cfmoduleed into
 template1.cfm, template2.cfm and template3.cfm? Is there a custom tag or
 a resource you can point me to for more information on this?

 Am I making any sense?

 Best regards,
 Michael Wilson - IQMax

Re: Cfmodule and Links

2002-09-06 Thread S . Isaac Dealey

 dir1 (sub directory of root)
 template1.cfm

 dir2 (sub directory of dir1)
 template2.cfm

 dir3 (sub directory of dir2)
 template3.cfm

 How does one place links (navigation perhaps) in either
 cfmodule1.cfm or
 cfmodule2.cfm, and resolve them to work properly when
 cfmoduleed into
 template1.cfm, template2.cfm and template3.cfm? Is there a
 custom tag or
 a resource you can point me to for more information on
 this?

I'm not so sure this is a commonly asked question ...

If you're just talking about a link within a cfmodule, you don't have to do
anything special: the link appears to the browser as coming from the base
template, so a href=yadda.cfm in root\myfile.cfm is the same as a
href=yadda.cfm in a custom tag in root\baddabing\mytag.cfm ...

If you're talking about something like FuseBox where you might not be
certain it's a custom tag, ( i.e. you might be calling the custom tag as a
base template ), then you probably want to use absolute urls or at least
absolute from the root, i.e. a href=/dir1/mybasetemplate.cfm The leading
/ in the href attribute tells it to look for dir1 within the root directory
of the website.

quick regex ?

2002-09-06 Thread John Lucas

Hi All,
 
I've got a quick regex question that I can seem to get right this
morning.  I need to remove all spaces and all punct characters from a
string.  I can do it one way or the other, but one way or the other but
I can't seem to correctly figure out how to get [[:space:]] and punct in
the same regex.  If someone could show me how to put both of those two
together, I would greatly appreciate it.
 
Thanks,
John

RE: Cfmodule and Links

2002-09-06 Thread Andre Turrettini

I see three solutions.
On is to use an absolute path which is fairly obvious.
Second is to pass the relative path into the custom tag.  This might be
dynamically generated by the calling template.
Third is to use the var getBaseTemplatePath in the custom tag.

You'll have to do a bit of calculation to figure out the url part of the
path youre looking for from the machine root path returned.

Quick CFC questions

2002-09-06 Thread Brook Davies

I really like CFC's in CFMX and am almost done rewriting my site to use 
CFC's to encapsulate the core functionality. I'm only using the basic 
features of CFC's, for lack of experience or understanding of some of the 
more advanced features (waiting for Ben's Book!).

So, I'm just curious if what I'm doing is acceptable practice and if there 
is some room for improvement (there always is).

I essentially have a several action pages which use the cfinvoke syntax 
to call approx. 6  cfc's in a sequence while performing a small amount of 
processing inbetween.  Each call used the cfinvoke tag.  Within some of 
the CFC's , I have calls to other CFC's.  Is this okay?

I have noticed that calling cfinvoke seems to be a bit slow. I wrapped 
the contents of a CFC in a timer script and got 0-10 milliseconds 
consistently. Wrapping the timer script around the same CFC, but 
including  the cfinvoke statement returned
between 30-70 milliseconds. Is that normal?

Thanks for the input, I'm really looking forward to Forta's book and I'm 
sure some great cf component details.

Brook

RE: Interesting: Macromedia Resource Kit

2002-09-06 Thread Jeff Beer

It bothers me when a company that sells development software has to sell
a developer kit.  If a company sold an application, like Microsoft
Word or Quicken, then an SDK makes sense - exposing the API, etc.  But,
when the core software is a development product, a developer's kit just
seems like another way to gouge more $$$ from their customer base.

This isn't directed solely at MM.  It's also Microsoft and anyone else
who does this..

RE: Quick CFC questions

2002-09-06 Thread Matt Liotta

If you call a CFC more then once on the same request using the cfinvoke
tag you could be instantiating it over and over, which is needless
overhead. I suggest you make it a habit to always create an instance of
the CFC using the cfobject tag before calling any of its methods.

SOT: Another Regex help request

2002-09-06 Thread Shawn Grover

I need to parse a javascript file for function names.  I have a regex that
will find the function MyName but I only want the MyName.

Here's my regex (from memory, so I might not have it right):
(?:function\s)\S*\(

(which if my understanding is right means a non-grouping search for function
followed by a space or tab, then any number of non-space characters,
followed by a bracket)

Any tips on how to get JUST the function name?  Thanks in advance.

   This set of Flash components (set 3), and the datagrid 
 component are
  only
   on the DRK, and won't be available for free download. The 
 DRK CD is
 a
   mixture of new stuff only available on the DRK CD,  archives of
 stuff
   that's out there, but collected for offline use on this CD.
  
   That's not to say there won't be any more free
 components/extenstions,
  but
   these are only available on the DRK CD.

   Indeed, this is an interesting DRK.
   But, one question comes to my mind : do we have to pay now to get
 the
   latest
   Macromedia Flash UI or Datagrid Components?
   Or does MM plan to release them as a free download?

   The DRK does contain some CF stuff:
  
   some CFCs: SMTP  POP,  a stock quote CFC (included w/ a sample
 apps)
  
   Dreamweaver extensions for CFers:
   *CF XHTML Editor
   *Extra File Function Toolbar (OK, not specific to CF, but has some
 of
   the
   file functions CF Studio users have been asking for, like 
 close-all,
   duplicate file, and others)
  
   Flash MX DataGrid component
  
   And an archive of all the CF content from DesDev, including
 articles,
   whitepapers, tutorials, and columns.
  
   We're definately going to expand the CF content in future DRK
  offerings.

 I don't feel anyone other than some beginner CFers would feel that they

Why is that? Are the examples just too simple? What sort of things would 
you like to see? Perhaps everyone here could contribute some worthwhile 
examples that they feel people would benefit from and then we could look 
at hosting those in the 'examples' system?

 This also goes for many of the tutorials, examples and topics in the dev 
 centers. I have a feeling others feel the same as I. It seems lately that 
 there is allot of information for some beginners and every once in awhile 
 something worth reading.

Hmm, I thought the material covered quite a broad range. This is good 
feedback tho' as we're always looking to improve the site and make it more 
valuable. What sort of topics would people like to see?

Talk to your Community Manager, Vern Viehe - I know he's keen to hear 
feedback from the community and he's in a position to get things done for 
you.

 Don't know exactly what besides more CFC and XML, Web Service coverage

Again, tell Vern what you did and didn't like about our recent coverage of 
those issues. Tell him what else you'd like to see.

 along with more examples of how we can use the new capabilities of the 
 integration between MX and Java.

Good point - I don't think we've covered this in any real depth yet.

 Don't take this wrong, I appreciate all of the work everyone puts into 
 and has put into CF and us users. Just looking for something more.

Thanx (as an occasional contributor to the Designer  Developer Center, 
praise is always appreciated!). We'd love to see folks recommending 
Macromedia's ColdFusion Application Development Center in the same breath 
as House Of Fusion and other CF resources that are already held in such 
high regard by the community.

Re: Where is javac? [Now OS/X redux]

On Friday, September 6, 2002, at 07:47 , Joshua Miller wrote:
 I don't think it's completely scientific to assume that your company
 is the norm. Our company has 300 computers and about 100 of
 them are Macs ... so with your logic applied here, one out of every
 three computers is a Mac - that's a pretty solid ratio.

I'm not sure what the ratio is here. Macs are more common in some 
departments than others and quite a few folks have both a Mac and a PC.

I started out with Macs at home and worked in a company that used Mac 
desktops and Unix servers. I didn't get my first Windows laptop until '97 
(a choice forced on me by my work environment) and I've had two Windows 
laptops since, while retaining Macs at home (which always ran Unix as well 
as Mac OS - Tenon Intersystems' Mach Ten - long before OS X was even 
considered).

My third Windows laptop died a few months back after two years - they've 
all lasted only about two years, compared to a couple of my Macs which are 
still rock solid after ten years! Why does Windows 'rot' and need 
completely rebuilding every few years?

I can thank Dick Applebaum for enabling my switch back to Mac - I needed 
CFMX on Mac in order to switch. There's a couple of other developers on my 
team who are now switching to Macs because they *can*...

Yes, it's unsupported. No, there won't be a port - so long as there is no 
business case. Mostly we've heard from developers who want the free 
developer edition. Go on, port it yourself (via Dick's method or via the 
much less painful method of using an actual Intel Linux box). Use it and 
enjoy it.

Re: OT: ecommerce live chat case study

   How difficult is it?

If you use Flash MX and the Flash Communication Server, this is pretty 
much trivial. The FlashCom UI Components for Flash make this almost a drag'
n'drop exercise and FlashCom itself is very easy to script.

The bonus about taking this approach is the ease with which you can 
integrate it with a ColdFusion MX web site...

 matt,
 
 would you be willing to download 650 megs? Not being sarcastic, but
that
 is the main reason we did not make it downloadable.
 
 btw, you are not the first person to request that today.
