• Extending The Application.cfc ColdFusion Framework Component With A Relative-Path Proxy

  Posted on Sep 25, 2012 at 2:25 PM

  This post came in real handy when I had to set up a sandbox folder. Within the sandbox I needed the onApplicationStart method to load all the singletons, but I needed to override onRequestStart and onRequestEnd since they both include the site layout. Having a RootProxy.cfc allows me to extend th... read more »

• Connecting Python To Apache On My MacBook Pro Using A VirtualHost

  Posted on Aug 9, 2010 at 10:02 AM

  All this talk about people trying out Python is incredibly eerie. I decided to start learning it on a total whim about two weeks ago. I'll have to keep an eye out for future Python posts.... read more »

• ColdFusion CFQueryParam List Attribute Is Sweeet!

  Posted on Jul 27, 2010 at 2:43 PM

  @Ron Glad I could be of assistance. CFQUERYPARAM really is a great one to have, even if it does get a bit tedious to write out multiple times. :)... read more »

• ColdFusion CFQueryParam List Attribute Is Sweeet!

  Posted on Jul 27, 2010 at 10:18 AM

  @Ron If I'm understanding your question correctly, it sounds like you are literally storing the code "<cfqueryparam..." inside a string and then outputting that string inside <cfquery>? If so, the tag doesn't work that way. CFQUERYPARAM is executed at runtime, so in order for it to... read more »

• Mastering The ColdFusion Application Framework

  Posted on Jun 1, 2010 at 10:17 AM

  @Ben I think a good compromise for TIOBE would be to bundle all the CFML engines (ColdFusion, Railo, OpenBD) into one "CFML" label, but I highly doubt that's ever going to happen. I think the only group with the official size of the CF developer community is Adobe. The way I see it, as long... read more »

• Mastering The ColdFusion Application Framework

  Posted on Jun 1, 2010 at 9:26 AM

  Great topic. I just find it a bit strange that the "framework" aspect of ColdFusion is the reason why it's not included on the TIOBE index. http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index... read more »

• ColdFusion CFPOP - My First Look

  Posted on Apr 7, 2010 at 10:41 AM

  @Ben I've yet to test it myself, but I'm under the impression is only for bounce backs. Is that what you were trying it out for? I don't come back into work until Friday, but I can toy around with it more then. I would probably do this: send an email from account A to account B with a failto... read more »

• ColdFusion CFPOP - My First Look

  Posted on Mar 19, 2010 at 4:24 PM

  @Ben Thanks for the follow up! The root of the problem had to do with being able to trace bounced emails to specific records in a DB table. Let's say you run an email campaign and you get 1,000 bounce backs. For each bounce back, you would a) not want the sender to receive the bounce... read more »

  Posted on Mar 1, 2010 at 7:13 AM

  @Delon Sure. Feel free to email me. galdamez@mac.com I had to a similar project with 1,000+ bounce backs. Using a combination of CFPOP, some looping, and RegEx I was able to compile a list of about 95% of the bouncing email addresses. Afterwards, I ran a similar loop to remove the bou... read more »

  Posted on Feb 28, 2010 at 5:09 PM

  @Delon Check this UDF out. http://cflib.org/udf/getEmails My suggestion would be to run a query loop through whatever is returned from CFPOP. Use this UDF to extra email addresses from the body. Most of the times bounce... read more »
