Re: Multiple Blogs on one site
Thanks for the plug, Charlie. I added an exclamation point in my Charlie's List for each of your feature requests ;-) On a side note to that I've been pretty busy of late with my head down re-architecting the admin UI and comments functionality. A bunch of changes which you (and Ben Nadel) suggested are in there, but since I took the time to convert the old code over to an MVC pattern and separate all of the presentation from the logic while I was monkeying around, CFBlog will have to be patched all at once instead of incrementally. Hope you can wait a couple more weeks. :-) For Vince: Vince, the BF Enterprise Portal has some pretty nice features based on what it sounds like you need. Feel free to e-mail me off-list if you want to take a test drive and I'll get you a demo portal to play with. One advantage to using the hosted service is that we can fully integrate with the server for things like separate domains for portals and individual blogs. For Nate: Nate, responding to your reply later in this thread, I'm sorry. I don' t get comments e-mails for the old BF dev blog and I'm actually going to be consolidating the CFBlog Admin Blog as the only Blogfusion Dev blog since CFBlog always gets upgrades before any of the other portals. I just checked your comment. If you want to follow up with that and discuss, shoot me and e-mail off list and I'll go more into detail with a response to your concerns. I'm not trying to duck it, mind you, it's a more detailed response than I'm ready to type at 2AM :-) Regards, Jon Clausen On Apr 6, 2007, at 1:16 PM, Charlie Griefer wrote: The only thing I can offer up is that I use BlogFusion's hosted blog (http://cfblog.com/cgriefer/index.cfm) and I'm pretty happy with it.

I will offer up a HUGE recommendation for the guys behind BlogFusion tho. Whenever I've had an issue (be it a bug or an enhancement request), Jon (Clausen) has always been right on top of it. When I say there are some features I'd like to see added... that's true, but there have also been new features added (pretty quickly) that were added as a result of my requests/suggestions.

I want my current customer base to have the option of creating one to many blogs under their existing account. Also having the option of more than one user allowed to post blogs is desirable. I would also like for them to choose a short URL for their blog such as http://domainname.com/userchoice and have that created when the blog is created behind the scenes. Has anyone done this using an existing CF-based or other blog application? Does it comply with that blog application user license? I noticed that BlogFusion's Enterprise Blog Portal might be along the lines of what I was thinking of doing. Does anyone use BlogFusion? I'm not sure it will be flexible enough to have it all hosted there since I'd like to be able to tie it all into the larger premise of the site. Any help, suggestions, or experience with BlogFusion, BlogCFC, BlogCFM or other tools would be much appreciated. Best Regards, Vince Collins PS: Ray Camden, if you are listening, have you allowed BlogCFC to be used for this sort of use? Your user license is dependent on other underlying code bases so it's a bit fuzzy if I would be able to do this sort of thing.

Re: Session timeout problems
Depending on how it's done, it certainly can. It's perfectly possible to make a number of independent AJAX calls rapidly and since they will all return whenever they feel like finishing they may run at the same time, so locking session scope access can become more important in this scenario.

A Question for Development: Ajax Now or Ajax Later?
Hi, all.. Just wanted to throw this out for some perspective. For a few years I've been wanting to get in on the Ajax-style development. However, dealing with javascript was just going to take more time than I could spare and keep up with project demands, since I have no experience with it. Along comes jQuery, and it's straightforward enough that I can probably make it work without it becoming like a second job taking up so much time. But with CF 8 right around the corner, integrating Ajax into the tag code ( I hope ), working with Ajax development will become much easier and part of my CF 8 development instead of an add-on through a js library like jQuery. So the question, becomes... spend a lot of time now learning to implement jQuery and Web 2.0 interfaces and functionality or wait for CF 8, see what it provides, and then just fill in any remaining gaps with third-party development?

No harm in learning the ins and outs now, as undoubtedly the Adobe integration will hand feed the developer and when you need to something more advanced you will be pinging lists asking how (which of course is what lists are for) An hour or so would familiarise you with Ajax development to a degree, you could see it as your duty to know at least the basics before you let Adobe make it all tag based and easy for you...

RE: Hostmysite down...
I'm not sure we shouldn't point fingers at Adobe ColdFusion will hardly gain any market ground if hosts are overwhelmed with complaints from their users on shared hosting that their sites are constantly going down. Are such problems as typical on PHP and ASP sites running on shared hosting?? My own personal experience as well has been that this is happening far more often on CF7 than it did with CFMX 6. Not sure if that is just coincidence...but it certainly seems like they should be working to *decrease* such problems with each release. I'm hoping Scorpio will bring some improvement in this area. I suspect that shared hosting may not be a significant source of CF sales revenue. In my experience, which doesn't involve shared hosting at all, CF 7 has been much more reliable than CF 6.

I have a question about that Rey. Will Adobe allow you to specify your library of choice or will we be force-fed the bloated Spry library? andy -Original Message- From: Rey Bango [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2007 10:37 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: A Question for Development: Ajax Now or Ajax Later? Rick, Neil said it perfectly. Its good to know the ins and outs of Ajax but more specifically, DOM manipulation. Ajax functionality is a very small aspect of what everyone regards as Web 2.0-style development and whether you're using jQuery, Prototype or whatever CF8 provides, you need to familiarize yourself with how to work with the DOM. Since I'm part of the CF8 beta, one thing I can say is that what you learn with jQuery will not be wasted when you use CF8. Rey... Rick Faircloth wrote: Hi, all..

Along comes jQuery, and it's straightforward enough that I can probably make it work without it becoming like a second job taking up so much time. But with CF 8 right around the corner, integrating Ajax into the tag code ( I hope ), working with Ajax development will become much easier and part of my CF 8 development instead of an add-on through a js library like jQuery. So the question, becomes... spend a lot of time now learning to implement jQuery and Web 2.0 interfaces and functionality or wait for CF 8, see what it provides, and then just fill in any remaining gaps with third-party development?

RE: A Question for Development: Ajax Now or Ajax Later?
I guess Flex is an option, but I've tried working with Flash with every version that has come out, and I've hated working with the Flash timeline. It's not that I'm unfamiliar with timelines...

RE: Building a Web Proxy with Authentication
My big issue now is how to call a page that uses Windows (or windows-like) authentication. Is it as simple as passing the username and password parameters for a CFHTTP call? The sites that I'm going to be linking to use either the IIS authentication or web form authentication. There's a big difference between Windows authentication and Windows-like authentication - I'm not even sure what you mean by that. Windows authentication typically doesn't use a password - the password itself is hashed by the client, and the hash is sent to the server for comparison. IIS might be using Windows authentication, or it might be using Basic or Digest authentication.

And finally, Flex is a much better solution for applications than AJAX, which is a collection of band-aids applied to the sucking wound that is HTML interface development. I think Flex is a better solution for developing desktop-like applications that have a requirement of broadband service or will be focused on internal networks (similar to client/server apps). For a typical consumer-oriented website where you need to accommodate for a variety of connection types and bandwidth requirements, Ajax is better suited and provides excellent features for providing desktop-like functionality. Having worked extensively with the technologies used in building Web 2.0-style applications, I can tell you that they're far from band-aids and that HTML still rules supreme for web application development.

CFPOP Missing UID - cfmx 6.1
Hi I have tried using CFPOP ACTION='GETALL' and CFPOP ACTION='GETHEADERONLY' (for testing purposes) and have noticed that on several occasions more than 1 message will not provide a UID. When I ouput the UID for each message a lot of them are blank. Has anyone else seen this problem? How can it be fixed (without trying to parse the headers -- which can be done later). Additionally, I've noticed the following. If the message does return a UID the message has Message-ID: followed by the returned UID located in the headers. If the message does not return a UID, the Message-ID: is not there, however, X-MessageId: is provided in the headers, but does not provide CF with a UID. I run Xmail Server for my mail server -- so this might be part of the problem? I'm going to search their forums as well.
