I appreciate the feedback received on this and some of the ensuing discussion.
On the technical side, it was a cfajaximport tag on which it failed. But as I
mentioned earlier, it still failed when that tag was removed. Thanx to one
suggestion I got it to work by moving the entire cfwindow up
FWIW, I have been there and done that too (been a programmer for nearly 50
years) so I believe I'm qualified
to participate in the discussion about giving help. My concern is that on any
number of posts I read, I have
found some responders who prefer to give technique advice rather than

So you suggest going back and rewriting a 50,000 line application in order to
resolve the problem? Not a very practical solution, I'm afraid.
Does anyone have a more realistic suggestion?

Maybe try putting the cfajaximport into the head portion instead of
inline elsewhere.

Rewrite the whole thing right now? No. I would progressively replace CF
UI tags with clean JS frameworks or custom JS as you touch each section
of your application. You'll find fewer and fewer people are using the
CF UI tags and therefore less and less assistance available. And most

I don't dispute that rewriting it might be the best long term solution. And
perhaps doing it in pieces is smart too (although I'd hate to be the person who
had to maintain the application when it is in the middle.)
But I wasn't asking for advice on CF programming strategy, rather I was looking
It's too bad you feel that way. You asked an open-ended question (Any
suggestions?), and I gave you the best advice I can give. If I were
personally tackling the problem you face, I would do so exactly as I
suggested. I won't apologize for that, because it is exceptionally sound
advice, and was a

It did this at the end of the page after everything else looked fine. The
error line it contained was a cfjaxaproxy inside a CFWINDOW tag.
The detailed explanation says This is probably because you have already
used a CFFLUSH tag in your template
John,
Have you seen this thread? (

I don't know much content that you are trying to display, but have you
tried to increase the Max Output Buffer?

I do understand what you mean John, and when you just want a quick fix
these responses do seem unhelpful.
But what you do need to know is that the majority of old gits on this list
have been there, done that and learnt by their mistakes and are not in the
habit of quick and dirty fixes and will

I think the term you are looking for is one I can't post here, but
agreed 100% that advice like you are doing it wrong - throw it out
is never constructive
It's maybe a little better if the poster bothers to explain WHY it
should be thrown out
