Code Snippet: Datatables from CFQuery JSON returntype

Hey fellow CF fans, it is Monday, and that means another blog entry. This time I’m throwing together a little code snippet that uses a little-known feature of CFQuery that was included in CF2021 but rarely talked about. As you might know, when Adobe ColdFusion returns a query, it returns it in a special style of struct, which you can iterate over and just generally use to display data, do calculations, the whole bit. But sometimes, you just want to […]

Using CFImage to create CAPTCHAS

Quick hit blog post here, did you know that ColdFusion can generate CAPTCHA images for you? While there are, of course, other CAPTCHA image generators & frameworks out there, if you’re just looking for a simple solution, you’ve already got one built in to CF. Consider the following code: <cfscript> cfimage(action=”captcha”, text=”OMGWHAT”, difficulty=”medium”, fontSize=”18″); </cfscript> This code would generate a randomly styled CAPTCHA image, similar to this: ColdFusion supports different difficulties, font-sizes and fonts, and of course you can dynamically […]

Comparing Adobe ColdFusion Enterprise API Manager to 3rd Party Options

One of the big myths about ColdFusion Enterprise is how “expensive” it is. Now, it could be argued that any programming language that costs more than $0 is “expensive”, as generally languages are free to use. But, of course, Adobe ColdFusion isn’t “just” a language. It is an entire ecosystem of functionality, including an incredibly useful administrator, performance monitoring toolkit and (if you use Enterprise), the API Manager. Many folks have covered the fantastic features of the API Manager, but […]

Turning on NULL support in ColdFusion 2018+

While playing around with booleans, I ended up running into some fun stuff(tm) having to do with NULL. As you might be aware, as of Adobe ColdFusion 2018, the framework has supported NULL values, but what you might not be aware of is that you can turn them on and off either globally (via the Administrator) or on a per-application level. Now, why is the latter important? Simply put, if you have a large number of older applications running, but […]
