 | 23 Apr 22:44 Neal asks: I'm trying to use cffeed to read RSS feeds provided by National Public Radio (I manage a few websites for community radio stations that purchase NPR programming). Everything works great, except that NPR uses a custom namespace for certain elements. For example, npr:rmaudio provides a link to a Real audio file, but cffeed won't read this element. When I try to loop through the feed having captured it with cfhttp, coldfusion chokes on the colon. Any ideas? 23 Apr 04:34 Are you a code diva? Do you demand spaces over tabs? Do you insist on Hungarian notation for variables? Do you get into a hissy fit when the order of attributes for the cffunction tag don't follow name/access/output/returnType/hint format? Do yo... 22 Apr 06:18 David asks what I think is a pretty interesting question concerning ColdFusion, Ajax, and auto-complete style functionality. I know you have covered the CF8 autocomplete tag, but I am looking to take it one step further, but haven't been able to find any good direction. I have been building an application for our amateur radio emergency services group that allows us to track our weather spotters while they are in the field. 20 Apr 10:56 I've "formally" released the new version of my YouTube CFC to it's RIAForge home. This new version doesn't have a one to one relation to the older API so I've included the old code in the zip as well. Right now it supports: Various 'top' video feeds (most popular, etc) Videos by category, keyword, or both Videos by user Comments for a video Playlists for a user Videos for a playlist And of course the big one - video upload. 20 Apr 00:54 So folks know I'm a big fan of the Guitar Hero series. When I first heard of Rock Band, I was pretty interested. For those who don't know - Rock Band expands upon the Guitar Hero concept by letting up to 4 people play at once. Two guys play guitar, o... 18 Apr 23:04 Henry asks quite a few questions regarding frameworks so I've split up his email into smaller parts. 18 Apr 04:55 I'm not a huge fan of the CFCACHE tag. It's a blunt instrument and I wish CF would natively roll in a nicer caching system (like, oh say, ScopeCache, not that I'm biased or anything). A user wrote in with a question about CFCACHE. Turns out that when you use cfcache, it outputs a HTML comment before the text which can totally break some browsers. Luckily - this was actually one of the things fixed in 8.0.1. Unluckily for the user - he was still on ColdFusion 7. 18 Apr 00:07 Joel asks: I have problems with using CFGRID and hope you can help. Here are my issues: 1. When sorting the 2nd and 3rd columns sort ok, the first causes an error stating an "Error in executing the Query". This is actually not a CFGRID issue, but an issue with your data provider, which is most likely a CFC. You need to debug why your CFC is throwing an error. This can be done multiple ways. 17 Apr 03:43 Chris asks: When creating a cookie with cfcookie, the cookie is created in uppercase characters. Is there a way to make it lowercase? What he means is, if you do this: And you examine your cookies, you will see that ColdFusion created the cookie and named it X. This may not seem like a big deal, but it gets important if you want to read the cookie in JavaScript. I tried to get fancy and set a cookie like so: But that made no difference. 16 Apr 22:26 Time for a quick rant. In general, I love that I've left the Windows world behind. I love OSX. But - like my own software, it isn't perfect. Today I want to complain about something that has bugged me since I first switched. Why is it that every t... | | |
