We recently transferred an application from a server with CF11 with FCKeditor 2.6.4 to CF 2018 with CKeditor 4. Everything seems to be perfect except for one thing. When we load content in CKeditor it erases certain styles such as table cell borders. And if I try to reenter the deleted styles in the source, as soon as a swith back to the wysiwyg view, styles are erased. Very annoying. Is there a filter activated somewhere that filters certain styles? […]
The ColdFusion community needs two things: More ColdFusion jobs, and more ColdFusion developers to fill those jobs. This is a delicate balancing act. How do we grow the community to be healthy again?
Installing CF18 under Windows 10. Choosing the External Server option, the install package drops me off with “Installation Complete.” Then it tells me I “may now deploy Adobe Coldfusion 2018 to your application server.” I do not get the usual dialog box within the installation routine that allows me to configure my servers (IIS). So, where do I go? What do I further install to get up and running? The installation routine created the folder, ColdFusion2018, which has a text […]
I am looking to increase the size (length) of the SUMMARY column that is created when using the CFSEARCH tag. It seems like I can’t make it larger than 294 characters. Thank you.
This video picks up where the last one ended. Let’s do a quick recap of what have done done so far. We have the Commandbox’s box.json and server.json ready.

TaffY: The REST Web Service Framework for ColdFusion
We’ve started linking the code samples with CFFiddle in ColdFusion documentation for functions. As a start, we’ve included CFFiddle links for the following function categories: Array functions Mathematical functions String functions In the next couple of weeks, we plan to include CFFidlle links for Spreadsheet, Struct, and List functions. In the next three to four months, we plan to link every tag and function, wherever possible, with CFFiddle links. As always, please use CFFiddle to test the samples. If there […]
Have you ever had to work with HTML tables filled with rows and columns of data? If you have, you know that picking out all the data out of the form scope can be difficult. As a ColdFusion developer, I wish forms could submit arrays and structs.
The Conficker Worm of 2008 In 2008, The Conficker worm program (also known as the Downadup worm) replicated itself across computers around the world and is still alive to this day. It turns your computer into a spam machine and monitors your sensitive information through keystroke logging. This info is then sent back to its programmers for their use. This worm defends itself by disabling your antivirus software. This worm continues to open backdoors for future hostile takeovers. The Conficker […]
Welcome back to our series, CF Camp 2018: Madness in Munich! This is our series that highlights some of the upcoming conference sessions at the ONLY CF conference in Europe. In Part One, we talked about the importance of Java security, how it pertains to ColdFusion, and the benefits of Elasticsearch. Today, we draw inspiration from Matt Gifford’s upcoming session: Building an API with cffractal and ColdBox. While I will leave the API construction process down to Matt; let’s discuss what APIs are, […]
