[cfaussie] Re: adding a label/instructional text to a flashform (CF7)

[barry.b]

Chris, that idea got shot down in flames when I suggested it an hour
ago. it's an admin section, nobody really cares and it's just about to
go live.

to do so means that the "people picker" pop-up that puts the name
there for a new record needs to be reworked and then the call to it in
4 other places needs to be rewritten and the whole lot to be tested
again. I didn't write this thing, I just gotta finish it.

I was just trying to be somewhat nice to the users, given the lack of
intuititivity of the rest of the app (IMHO everyone should own a copy
of "Don't Make Me Think!" http://safari.oreilly.com/0321344758)

so I take it I should just give up now and stick post-it's saying this
on the users machine?

meh, no biggee.. thanx anyhoo.

Mark, it's the other way around. Adobe staff fall over themselves
trying to get permission to come, as they hold WebDU in high regard.

[Chris Velevitch]

It looks like UserID and UserName are one in the same.

Have 2 fields: FirstName and Surname and format it yourself. That way
you'll get what you what and reduce the likelihood of errors.

Then you don't need the instructions and the users don't have to think
about what they're doing.

[cfaussie] Re: My Yearly WebDU Rant

[Mark Mandel]

I don't know if people realise this as well, but there will be 2 Adobe
ColdFusion engineers in attendance at webDU this year:

Hemant Khandelwal
http://www.webdu.com.au/go/speaker-profile/hemant-khandelwal-bangalore-india

Rakshith N
http://www.webdu.com.au/go/speaker-profile/rakshith-n-bangalore-india

I don't (think) I know Rakshith, but I've had a few dealings with
Hermant, and he's a pretty cool guy!

I think it's pretty amazing that the Daemon crew got these two guys to
travel all the way, to let's face it, the ass end of the world ;o)

There is no way I'm missing their sessions! (unless I'm speaking at
the same time?).

Where else do you get to mingle with the guys that actually * build
the product you use every day *.

I'm loving the content from this year's webDU, it is seriously the
best I think I've ever seen them do.

Mark

[Scott Barnes]

Barry and the others have covered this off well, but if allowed i'd like to
throw my 2c into the hat.



   - I've gotten more out of WebDU's in the past years in terms of social
   networking than any conference i've attended or yet to attend (i'll be going
   to MAX this year, so jury is out on that one).
   - Presenting at WebDU is interesting as you truly feel you're at the
   top of your game yet you are determined not to fail and i see that in a lot
   of presenters of the past.
   - Daemon crew do their up most best to put on a good show, and it's
   worth just viewing the entire Adobe scene unfold etc.
   - You get to rant at the Adobe staff in a drunken haze, this is good
   for you especially Dale as i know you have a few opinions on a few issues
   that you should AIR (hehe see what I did then)..
   - People put a face to the name (ties in with the first point). If

   about you behind your back, suffice to say it can even amplify it if you

   - It's a hit & miss on the learning. There have been sessions where
   I've picked up a lot and other times it can be re-hashing the same stuff we
   see online. That being said, not everyone looks online so different strokes
   for different folks.
   - All conferences cost, and after being in the MIX planning etc I can
   tell you it's money that rarely makes a killer profit. If there is $950 on
   the tickets, chances are you're paying the bare minimum before it starts
   costing the organisers personal funds.
   - If you're looking at this from a perspective of "ROI" think of it as
   R&D funds. Not so much training, but R&D. I once read some research a while

Aside from this year, I've only ever missed one of these annual events (i

year as sadly i'll be setting up Home 2.0 in Seattle. I think this is one of
the years to attend, given the new Products coming off the Adobe assembly
line and from a competitive standpoint, it will be interesting to see what
takes place at this event. As it's probably one of Adobe's key marketing
events world-wide.

[cfaussie] New search/commenting on adobe.com

[Chris Velevitch]

Edward Sullivan wrote:

Hello.

Tomorrow we will be rolling out a couple exciting new enhancements on
certain areas of adobe.com that I wanted to make folks aware of ahead of
time.

A new community powered search is the first enhancement.  The community
powered search is designed to help people find the best answer to their
question, no matter where the answer may reside.  If the best answer is
on someone's blog in the community, that's the answer we want to help
people find.  This will not replace the existing search on adobe.com,
but will be available as a new beta search.

We will also be rolling out the ability for users to add comments to
content.  As most of you know, we've had commenting on Livedocs for a
while.  This is the next generation of commenting, in that the
commenting functionality across these two different places is
integrated.  The intent of commenting is to gather feedback and deliver
the best possible content; by integrating the commenting, and who
reviews and acts on those comments we can strive to be as consistent as
possible across content on adobe.com.


Both of these enhancements are being rolled out as a pilot in the Flex
Developer Center; http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/.

We encourage you to try these new enhancements and send any feedback.
The search results page that gets returned will have a link to a
feedback survey at the top right of the page.

Also, feel free to spread the word!

Thanks,

Ed

[cfaussie] Re: My Yearly WebDU Rant

[KC Kuok]

I think its good for networking, and seeing whats the buzz (though the
same could be achieved following the adobe blogs). Though there is
nothing like seeing a presentation live and being able to ask question
during Q&A or while mingling(?).

Personally I take it as a chance to get re-energized on new ideas/
approaches, and networking as much as possible (i.e. knowing who to
ask questions when the need arises)

I won't be attending any workshops this year though, mainly because
there was not one where I thought it justified the 495 to work. My
main objective is to gather the general consensus where my work
organisation should be heading, feeling out the new trends, finding
out what other people are involved in and networking with people.

It would be good if there were people willing to organise it in other
states, but at the end of the day it is because Daemon has been doing
a good job and they are based in sydney.

Work seems to think its good value, I was sent last year and I wasn't
expecting to go again this year, but was encouraged to go again this
year.

I think you should attend it yourself, if you have a chance, to have a
feel whether its worth it so you can make an informed choice for
following years.

Just my 2 cents,
Chong

Dale I'm not being flippant, bare with me

based on that experiance, and what's listed on the agenda, what do you
want to get out of it? What would you consider a decent return on your
investment?

keeping in mind the networking potential, which in some quarters is
worth a bit (but for others less so).

also

as an employer, aren't you required to spend "x%" on professional
development** of your employees (inc yourself)?


** can't remember exactly. 1%? 2%?

[cfaussie] Re: Application Variable

[Blair McKenzie]

It would only really be an issue if that variable was getting set to an
empty string for some reason. If two requests go through at the same time
that could cause problems. Just throwing the possibility out there - doesn't
seem likely.

[cfaussie] My Yearly WebDU Rant

[Dale Fraser]

No flame wars please,

 

I was looking at sending an Employee up to WebDU this year, originally I
wasn't going to, but Mark Mandel bought it up at the VIC UG and it got a
good reception, some were going and good things were said about it.

 

I also like the 1 day training pre conference, this would have worked well
for me as there was a topic there for the person I was looking to send. And
I was all ready to get budget approval for the spend etc, but the guy I
wanted to send is on leave.

 

So I could send someone else I guess, but I don't want to send someone just
for the sake of it.

 

I would like to get the opinion from people who are going or who have been,
if you feel it's worth the spend & time.

 

The cost I worked out went something like this

 

Conference  $950

Workshop$495

Flights $250

Accommodation   $330

Meal Expense$100

Taxis   $200

   -

   $2,325

 

Which if you think about it for 3 days is $96 per hour. Not counting the
salary we are paying while he is there. Now my usual rant is about how they
should bring it to Melbourne or other States so that more people could
attend, I could send all my people? But in reality at $950 a ticket, I
wouldn't it's too expensive. The actual cost of not being in melbourne from
above is still $880 but the actual ticket price is very high. I think I
probably missed an earlybird discount might have saved a couple hundred
dollars.

 

At the end of the day $2k isn't insignificantit, but $2k might be a great
investment, I consider the $495 workshop to be great value.

 

So what do you think, especially the non Sydney siders, is it worth it, do
you have trouble justifying it's cost? Do come back thinking that was money
well spent, etc.

[cfaussie] Application Variable

[Scott Thornton]

Hi,

No, nothing has changed. There is a second Application.cfm in the subdirectory 
where these processes are called from but I've checked the version control and 
nothing has changed.

>>> David Harris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 23/04/2008 12:05 pm >>>

Has anything changed?

I've seen often when application vars are missing it can be due to a
rogue "Application.cfm" preventing the main Application.cfm for doing
it's stuff...

Just a thought :-)

[cfaussie] Re: Has anyone got CF8 to talk to Windows Workflow Foundation?

[Scott Barnes]

I think it has to do with the way CF8 consumes .NET web services.. I'm going
to try and create a proxy class to pipe the commands direct via CF --> .NET
--> WF and see how that plays out..

Was hopeful someone's already tried this somewhere :) if not, well.. poo to
me then :)

[barry.b]

[at the risk of suggesting this thread might be better off on the
cfjobs list instead of here ...]

@Scott

"keep applying and  market your resume like a product."

yeah, that's good advice. "New Improved candidate with extra VOOM! 30%
less fat than last time". I must admit mine is pretty dull and
boring ... funny thing is though, Scott, it was using your resume as a
template...
(talk about "Pulp Fiction" - just trying to cash in on the mesmorising
capabilities it seemed to hold over employers ...)

then again, only once in the last 5 jobs has been off a resume instead
of word of mouth ... and two directly because of attending CFUG's ...

sadly, it's still a case of who you know... and a good number of jobs
out there never get advertised... (which is the trigger for this
thread I guess)

Eliseo,

I apologise I misinterpreted the message. I also didn't mean it in that
context but simply talking about your job hunt on a public mailing list and
the various experiences you've had whilst doing it was more to the point
probably not wise. I could also be wrong.

Scott.

Scott,

I'm not bagging out Gruden... believe me on that, they're a good
company, but I find their recent reason for not proceeding unusual...
but that's their decision...

As to Daemon, I wouldn't dare bag them out, so I honestly have no idea
how you derived that... Daemon are a great company and Geoff just
informed me yesterday that they had just filled a position and won't
be taking anyone on until later, so I can't do much about that. I can
accept that...

There are many companies out there that are fantastic, Gruden and
Daemon are two such companies... and I wouldn't dare do anything to
put them in disrepute... Just trying to find a company that hasn't
interviewed me or that I haven't submitted to as yet is the challenge
at this point ;) LOL

This is very true... I hope I won't have to be in this position for
very long...

[cfaussie] Re: Who is working for whom in Sydney, and are they looking for new people?

[Dale Fraser]

Can you demonstrate that you know OO techniques and have used frameworks? If
so plead your case, if not start learning.

There are a lot of people who have never used CFC's who don't understand
inheritance or interfaces and think they don't need to because they can do
what they want now. Companies such as Gruden will not hire such people. You
need to be able to talk about these things and more importantly demonstrate
sites and code where you have used them.

Okay, something weird here... Just heard back from Gruden, and they
decided they did not wish to proceed with my application based on the
following:

"We generally do not hire any candidates if they have unsuccessfully
applied for a position within Gruden in the past. There would need to
be fairly exceptional circumstances for us to consider such a
candidate.

We have interviewed yourself in the past and decided that you were not
suitable for the role following further investigation of your
Coldfusion skills. Specifically, the more advanced concepts and
methodologies such as Object Oriented Programming, frameworks and
CFMX7 experience."

The last time they interviewed me was some two or so years ago... My
CF experience has changed dramatically since two years ago for the
better. I find that kinda strange...

Any thoughts? :)

[cfaussie] Re: Who is working for whom in Sydney, and are they looking for new people?

[Scott Barnes]

Interesting, it's not a tactic i'd go for in terms of not interviewing a
candidate again simply because they failed to make the cut last time. People
change, experiences grow and in the end the top 5% of the developers out
there aren't looking for jobs, as well they are the top 5% :)

Anyway, Gruden and Daemon aren't dumb by any stretch, quite the opposite so
there must be a reason and i'd probably think airing this kind of thing on a
mailing list isn't going to do you an favours, as you could scare of future
companies whom might be interested in looking at your resume, but fear that
should they say no, you'll embarass them here.

My advice is simple, keep applying and  market your resume like a product. A
company is about to put down a lease on you for $60k+ a year, and what are
the features and benefits that you will bring to the table. Sell yourself as
a great investment, not just an employee.

P.S
I wouldn't punish anyone for bad interview skills, or post-interview
skills.. in the end these are peoples livelyhoods and looking for a job
isn't the most fun in the world, stress is high, money is tight and career
compass at times gets stuck on north...

Matthew, it's slowing down, and all the CF roles that are out there
are ones I've applied to previously! Some clients are unfortunately
very picky and know what they want... I can't really twist  their
arm...

Then again most of them seem to be with the same places... so why
apply to the same one over and over?

[cfaussie] Application Variable

[Scott Thornton]

Hi,

The last two nights I have had a problem with some of our overnight batch type 
processing scheduled jobs.

A few of them email their success when they have finished running using an 
application variable in the "from" attribute of a cfmail eg 
application.from_email_address.

This has worked fine for over a year except the last two nights. I am getting 
an 'Parameter is not defined" type error indicating these variables don't exist.

The variable is created in the Application.cfm 




SELECT  sb_param_value_txt
FROMsb_system_params
WHERE   sb_param_code = 









I can't understand why it would disappear It doesn't appear to happen 
consistently multiple batch jobs use this set up, but not all of them fail.

Any thoughts?

[cfaussie] Re: Who is working for whom in Sydney, and are they looking for new people?

[Eliseo]

Steve,

Amen to that... I was hired by Commander a yer ago due to my creative
approaches to resolving previous difficult technical situations in
other roles. I'm an analyst by nature. I analyze, look for patterns
and do what I can to resolve them... My wife has compared me to Dr
House; saying that I too, suffer from the Rubik's complex... always
wanting to solve the puzzle...

And Dale, it's amazing that companies say that they are having
difficulty with finding good people...  BackCreative and iTouch are
still looking for roles to be filled since January, but won't take me
in because I've been previously represented... This is an example...
there are a few other companies in this situation where I am
concerned...

If they are that desperate to get someone in, they should contact the
first recruiter that put me forward and arrange an interview... I work
hard and I know that I can do the work as I've done it previously...
Unfortunately, some clients are a little to proud to admit that they
need someone they decided not to go with the previous time...

[cfaussie] Re: Who is working for whom in Sydney, and are they looking for new people?

[Matthew]

So what entails a "good" developer?

I thought Sydney was the hot spot for CF jobs, Melbourne less so and
Adelaide would be near impossible. So does this mean that Sydney is
slowing down on CF jobs now? Are all these "CF is on the way out"
comments becoming true? I wonder if Daemon dabble outside of CF?

[cfaussie] Re: Who is working for whom in Sydney, and are they looking for new people?

[Eliseo]

Dale,

Already tried that... Seek have recycled through multiple recruiters
the same jobs over the last 3 months. I know because I had applied for
most of these roles not long after being made redundant by Commander
in late January... ;) LOL

I say "most" as the remaining roles are interstate... and I doubt my
wife could handle me being away, not to mention it would also mean
having to arrange accommodation etc...

But I'll give another crack at Gruden though...
