As I said already...the Lazlo demo leads me to belive it's only for UI
coding (although there is talk of databut via XML only).
Flex and Laszlo are both presentation servers, so yes, they only deal with the
front end and presentation of data.
I'm not sure ODBC drivers exist for MySQL. Although I work with both

As others have suggested, by far the simplest way to do this is to download the

I think it needs to point to the specific collection. Thats off the
top of my head, but I currently have a cluster which reads from a
single shared collection and it works. You may need to re-index the
collection after both servers are pointing to it.

I am not sure you can, but CF 7 now has the ability to run Verity on a
totally separate server.
I'll look into that--the issue is that the app from which I'm getting these
Verity collections (a large knowledge management application) is running on CF
5 and they have no plans to upgrade those
The admin UI that shows existing collection paths and requests new
collection paths is a little inconsistent, and that's probably why the
second collection was created under the folder where you wanted it to
go. Next time, use /full/path/to/verity/collections at the full
path, and use
I suppose I didn't ask the obvious question first, which is are Verity

be upgrading to very shortly)? The directory structures look

In my testing, a simple form with, say, 4 text inputs plus a submit

requires a page refresh).
A simple form with only four fields isn't a particularly compelling candidate
to replace with a Flash form, and even Macromedia will

I agree with you that a 4-field form is not something to worry about

Well sure, but this is really almost an economy of scale issue. You pay for

Sean's post is correct--while I've always just double-clicked the JAR file for

Problem now is that apparently this server is unpatchable.I fixed the jvm.config file and CF starts fine WITHOUT Macromedia's new arguments in there, but with them in there, the server won't start even if I do the update in the correct order.Anyone else had this problem with this particular patch?

I'm seeing some weird behavior with DateDiff that I hope someone can shed some light on.I'm sure it's just a misunderstanding on my part but it just doesn't do what I suspect that it should do.
Today is 6/22/2004, so if you're reading this on a different day, assume that Now() is 6/22/2004.
dateDiff measures the number of whole days different. The date you create
with createDate() is midnight, which is probably just a few hours away?
Try setting today as createDate(year(now()), month(now()), day(now()))
Perfect--exactly what I needed to know!Thanks!
