Re: [ACFUG Community] RE: [ACFUG Discuss] CSS to cfinclude
Ironic thread - considering Dean's signature quote: What is objectionable, what is dangerous about extremists is not that they are extreme, but that they are intolerant. I suggest that we all be more tolerant. I agree that it is sometimes best to hit the delete key and move on. (Which is what I should have done here too - but what the L).

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] CSS to cfinclude
So you are saying I could div, and put some cfinclude in that? I dont think that would work. how would the code get populated and parced. Guess it would have to be cells and not DIV's.

Re: [ACFUG Community] RE: [ACFUG Discuss] CSS to cfinclude
Is it Friday yet? Or has ACFUG just become Robert's personal tech support line? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for helping fellow members of the community, that's why Cameron, Nathan and I originally founded ACFUG. But every thread lately is dedicated to solving Robert's latest problem. I understand you don't have the funds to pay someone else to do this for you or to take a class. However, I am beginning to wonder if Robert has the ability to do the work on his own, either. Perhaps this isn't your strong suite and its time to cut your losses and find another way to solve this particular business problem? Is your time best spent on trying to figure out CF, HTML, CSS and AbleCommerce or growing your business in other ways? These are the questions I'd be asking myself if it was my business...
