Also, watch out for possible legal values that users pass in. They can enter: username domain\username domain/username usern...@domain.com You will need to strip off anything that is not the username before you use it in your CFLDAP filter, if you are filtering on sAMAccountName. If they type

Yes, but in your example, isSuperUser will probably only contain boolean values. query.recordCount will not contain typical boolean values. In the case of query.recordCount, FALSE=[0] and TRUE=[everything else]. I've done it both ways. query.recordCount gt 0 tends to add a bit more explanation

I'm not sure how you could do this as DW looks for or / when closing tags. I have a wrapping snippet that inserts !---|--- when I press Ctrl+Shift+M. You might could probably script something using DW's API, but how would DW know you are closing a comment or just typing a hyphen? Mike

We may soon switch to Windows Server 2008 on 64-bit hardware. Currently, I have a couple licenses of CF8 Enterprise running on 32-bit hardware. It is my understanding that I can use my same CF8 Enterprise license key with the 64-bit version of CF8. I would only need to download the 64-bit

Technically, you could add the CFAPPLICATION tag to each and every page in order to use session management. That would be silly. A better solution would be to use CFINCLUDE. However, the best solution, in most cases, is Application.cfm|.cfc Mike -Original Message- From: Seb Duggan

There really isn't a good way to do it. You are looking for the Insert panel. If you view that, you can hide the button labels and make the panel wide. However, you can't make the panel short (height) enough to simulate the DW8 button bar. Switch to the CODER PLUS workspace to find it.

DW CS4 (WinXP) is very stable. I have not yet had any lockups or errors. I use it strictly as a code editor. I have a few snippets and quite a few keyboard shortcuts. As another few people have stated, a sweet timesaver is the smart-close tag feature. Basically, if you type: table tr td/td
