Adding a border to text using CFImage
I have searched all over and so far am empty handed trying to put a color border or stroke around text created with CFImage. I also own Efflare's Imageflare and don't see anything in there either. If someone has any suggestions or links, I would appreciate it greatly.

Re: Fusion Reactor and Fusion Analytics Kick Ass
Thats great, but I guess outside of being cool none of that really provides any value. It shouldn't take a Coldfusion tool to determine your server is rebooting at 3AM.

Link Checker and Repair Service
Good evening everyone, One task we as Web developers must deal with is checking our sites for broken links and repairing them when necessary. I'll be starting a new project and want to put in place a utility that will alert me when a link has changed and if possible go out and search the Web and automatically fix them if it finds possible redirections. Since the new project will be done using the Mura CMS is there a feature in Mura that will do this and how does it work? I'll be curious to hear about all solutions for this task be they paid or a free link monitoring and repairing program or service. All the best.

RE: Fusion Reactor and Fusion Analytics Kick Ass
Hi Dan, That wasn't a good example, and no it doesn't take a CF tool to determin a server reboot. However, this was a brand new server install that didn't have any monitoring services setup (which would notify me of a restart etc). Sure, I could have looked in the event viewer or other logs, but that wasn't really the point of my comment. The fact that I was able to see a spike in CPU usage (when my otherwise dormant application server was re-initializing) , click on it and see the exact CF log file entries at that time (which showed the restart) is useful and more than just cool. Plus that is just one of the options to inspect at any point of the graph. Fusion Analytics can pull up all of the JDBC requests at that time, and like I said, a ton of other useful information. I don't see how that's not of value and I have been administrating CF servers for over 10 years without the help of FR/FA . **For me** it is of value and makes my job that much easier.

RE: Fusion Reactor and Fusion Analytics Kick Ass
Or why would have a tool running your servers? *grin* If you are using CF then a tool that cooperates and understands CF is pretty essential to monitoring the health of your server. There are many different things that can go wrong.If you are just using a CF tool, then you will probably not be seeing the whole picture.

Post it anyways. I am curious. I skimmed the cfc and it is essentially doing the same things internally.

If you do a search here, last year there was a discussion about using java to add and manipulate text on the fly. Look around October-ish. I was doing a contract ad a casket maker and they did websites for funeral homes. One of the site features was being ablet o make a slide show of images plus custom text that had you can put saying or whatever you wanted. This code was based off of some work ben Nadel did and I expanded on that with another list member (I am forgetting her name ATM...sorry, I am horrible with names). That discussion may help you.
