One thing you could do is to upgrade to more modern machine,
swap in a SSD, and install Linux and your development
environment. That way, you can always pop in the original

ago and I love it. I have CF10 running with apache, MySQL and php all working 
great. Using Adobe creative cloud for dev and I have no complaints. Once you 
get used to working in the terminal macs are easy to use and my machine in no 
way owns me. Just saying. And for the occasional instance where I HAVE to use 
windows, I have windows 8 running with bootcamp. No complaints and Windows 8

in the same way a windows machine would too?

You don't need to know the terminal but it is damn awesome once you start using

RE: CF running out of steam

2013-03-18 Thread Rick Faircloth

I've been using CF for a long time and will be using it until I retire,
because I build things people use and they don't particularly care what
the technology is behind those things they use.

HOWEVER, that is no excuse for Adobe being SO VERY SLACK at promoting their
product, providing tutorials for new users to use to get to know CF,
providing conferences, etc. Yes, CF *may* still be profitable for Adobe,
but it won't take too many more years before that will change as people like
myself decide to migrate to Blue Dragon and cut off yet one more customer
from Adobe.  Too many of those decisions and even hosts will decide CF is not
worth providing.

I like CF and hope to retire before I have to learn anything else. (I'd rather
play softball with my extra time than learn PHP)

But, as long as Adobe keeps CF on the market, they should support it like
it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.  The only businesses I know that
have a product on the market, yet don't market in every way and to the fullest
extent possible, are those who don't understand marketing in today's media,
or those who are just milking the cow without feeding it to get whatever money
they can for the milk with no more investment in maintaining a healthy thriving
cow. They're just willing to get what they can on their way out of the business
and let the cow survive on its own as long as it can.

I'm not sure, after a decade of watching Adobe, if they're just lazy, ignorant,
or going out of business with CF. Any of the above scenarios fits their 
long-time
approach to marketing CF.

And I've never heard one rational defense of Adobe and its handling of CF that
excuses Adobe lack of attention to CF, from documentation to marketing.

(And understand, that I'm a freelancer, and my business success has never once
depended on how well Adobe has marketed their product, so I'm like an outsider
looking in at those dependent upon Adobe making a name for CF so those of you
who work for others can get hired based on the reputation of CF, which ONLY
Adobe can create...)

Oh, and Paul, if what I've witnessed of Adobe's efforts at building a rep
for Adobe since they bought it from Macromedia is trying, then they will
ultimate be a losing team.

If the softball players that I coach put so little effort into they're work
at becoming more successful on the field, they'd be kicked off the team for
lack of commitment to success. Just as I'd already have fired the Adobe
marketing team. No excuses...

RE: Curmudgeon painted in a corner

2013-03-18 Thread Rick Faircloth

I've switched to Sublime Text 2. It's been a fine editor.
I'd don't like CF assistance with writing code, however it does
support syntax highlighting. It's lightweight and I can keep
3, 4, or 5 editors open with various projects at one time with no problem.

I work primarily in HTML, CF, CSS3, and jQuery so I LOVE the fact
that it lets me have choices about layout of parts of the editor.
I use the Grid-4 layout all the time. It's nice to have HTML,
CF, jQuery, and CSS3 all on their own screen if I want to. I use
dual monitors, so they makes it particularly useful. And it's only
$70. You can use it for free, you just have to put up with the 
Please buy a license popups every 10 saves or so, but it's well
worth the $70 and has a LOT of people writing add-ons for it that
makes it easy to configure to work in a way that benefits your
workflow the most.

Coming from Homesite, you are likely to enjoy Sublime Text 2.

Instal Package Control and then install the ColdFusion package. Decent
syntax highlighting and a lot fo goot packages to choose from. It's also
very lightweight compared to memory beasts built on top of Eclipse like
CFBuilder.

back in the day on one of the lists. Looks like there is still a website up

http://www.ihtml.com/

2.0 was released in 1996. Today you can sign up on their website to be

I wonder if it's really still around or just AZW (another zombie website).

CFBuilder might (if you write a plugin for it) since that deals with the idea 
of a site. I haven't seen one for Sublime Text 2 but that is just a matter of 
time really, it should be fairly easy to write

Hi Mark
I was thinking more of integration with W3C or some built in html validator
I'm not too interested in writing my own.

I know text mate  has this and I know there are some really awesome projects 
related to this (and CSS and JS for example) and a quick google brought this up:
http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5t=2262

Remember, Sublime Text is made of plugins, so that is what you will look for 
things like this

Check out the SublimeLinter plugin for Sublime Text 2. It adds html tidy
support as well as support for many other languages.

Re: CF running out of steam

2013-03-18 Thread Aaron Rouse

For some time now I have thought a rebranding would be rather beneficial. A
lot of places I work at the very name Coldfusion seems to be the biggest
issue.  It definitely is not the cost of the software being an issue and
they all buy the Enterprise version because of Oracle.  It is much more to
do with them having a perception that Coldfusion is an old language.  As if
it never really has seen much changes over the years.  But mention
ASP.NETto those same people and they never seem to relate it one bit
to Classic
ASP.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

2013-03-18 Thread fun and learning

We have hidden form variable whose value is set to #cgi.remote_address#. For 
testing security vulnerabilities, add on like hackbar is used to inject a 
different value for the hidden variable like below.

Variable1=%u002e%u002e%u2215%u002e%u002e%variable2=

When the form is run using the firefox add on, an error occurs as below. The 
error message java.lang.IllegalArgumentException is reported as a vulnerability 
for information leakage. We already have a custom error message but this error 
does not seem to be handled by it. What would be the best way to handle this?

FWIW, there have been several competitors to CFML that have come out over
the years, but they never really became popular, I bet you have not even
heard of most of them, they certainly never get mentioned anywhere and most
of them have already died, so it shows that CFML isn't doing too bad when
you compare it to those.

A couple that come to mind are
iHTML
Lasso

Oh, I've dealt with all of them over the years.  Oracle is the worst.
Akamai is second.  I was dealing with one of their staff as a
consultant representing my client, and she actually had the temerity
to go behind my back directly to the client, which ultimately cost her
the deal, because the client was more ethical than she was and called
me promptly to let me know what she was doing.

That's what Olivetti did to me.  Can't mention the clients name, but very
well known, and for a 7 figure sum.  I went to meet my contact and as I
strolled down the corridor I was shocked to see my Olivetti dealership rep.
coming towards me.  The Olivetti guy was supposed to be supporting our
dealership to win the tender, instead of which they tendered directly as a
manufacture.  Would have been nice to know as I wasted six month on it.

Anyhoo .. way OT ...
