Web Application Firewall suggestions
I'm looking for a web application firewall that will work with IIS6 and ColdFusion 8. I'd use Fuseguard, except that I need something that is more general purpose (i.e. will also work for php, aspx).

I haven't use dit it but this one is meant to be popular. http://www.barracudanetworks.com/ns/products/web-site-firewall-overview.php Really any firewall product that has good content filtering should be able to do what you need, the only difference with a web application firewall is that they ahve already created all the filters for you for common attacks such as SQL injection etc. You should also take a look at Microsoft Forefront. http://www.microsoft.com/forefront/edgesecurity/en/us/secure-remote-access-solution.aspx Russ On Tue, Jul 26, 2011 at 2:54 PM, Patti, Michael mpa...@sherwood-group.comwrote: I'm looking for a web application firewall that will work with IIS6 and ColdFusion 8.

cflayout not dynamic to content
I just upgraded from CF8.1 to CF9.1 and am experiencing a major problem with cflayout. The layout area no longer dynamically fits the content area. The height is minimal and the width seems to be like 400% wide? From what I have read, this is a know bug that has not been fixed. Does anyone have a suggestion or solution as I use this feature extensively throughout my custom developer Content Management System and I cannot use fixed values as the content area changes based on needs. The code is written something like: cfform cflayout name=formTabs type=tab tabheight=100% cflayoutarea title=Tab 1 name=tab1 table tr td...Form Fields and values .../td /tr /table /cflayoutarea cflayoutarea title=Tab 2 name=tab2 table tr td...Form Fields and values .../td /tr /table /cflayoutarea /cflayout /cfform Thank you, David G.
