I have extensive experience in web application development on multiple platforms. I have done consulting work on my own for almost 12 years and would be interested to see how my skills and experience might be an asset to your team.

So I looked it over and followed the example and was absolutely BLOWN AWAY. It was the difference between going 75 mph in the HOV lane and going warp 10. I was really impressed. Here are a few screenshots:

Fancy Lists

Fancy Forms

I have not dug into the guts of how it works yet, but the forms look to use a jquery form styling library.

Areas that could be improved:

1. I have recently seen a framework called Django for the Python language and the generated code and styling of the interfaces is better than where we are here, but remember it is only  in Alpha.
2. Maybe this is in there and I have not found it yet, but I think making the styling more easy tweak  and having some themes.
3. Me. I need to get back involved in the ModelGlue beta process. In the first two versions of MG, I was active on the lists and giving suggestions etc… Lately I have been too busy, and I really need to get back involved because exciting things are happening.

I will continue to look into this, but I am incredibly impressed and blown away by what a huge jump this framework had taken.

1. Go to: https://www.verisign.com/support/roots.html and download roots.zip file.
2. Copy and rename the “Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority – G2.cer” file from the root certificates zip file provided by VeriSign to c:\vs-g2-import.cer to remove spaces from the filename.
3. Issue the following command: C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\jre\bin\keytool.exe -import -keystore c:\cfusionmx7\runtime\jre\lib\security\cacerts -storepass changeit -noprompt -trustcacerts -file c:\vs-g2-import.cer -alias vs-g2-import-09-09-30
4. Restart ColdFusion.

Works like a champ now. Thanks PayPal for the advance warning.

1. OBVIOUS – It is not as developed as CFEclipse and as such has some irritating bugs that will be worked out in time.
2. Needs to have tighter Aptana tie in.
3. Should include a SVN client.
4. Server management ROCKS.
5. Tag insight and introspection show be a little quicker.

I had a server crash that happened to host the Resonant Media Technologies website. I took the time this time to really set it up right. I installed CentOS 5.2 and VMware 2, I will blog more, but the experience was incredible.

I will be posting more about the way it works in a future post.

I am very happy that it appears that we have a very solid and feature rich new version of CF to enjoy.

- 90% New Code.<br/>
- Backward Compatible (As much as possible.)<br/>
- Less Complicated (Some of the xml files may go away).<br/>

I don’t know about everybody else, but I am pumped. ModelGlue is without a doubt the best framework regardless of language.

Go Joe Go!!

<code>
fckEditor.Config['EditorAreaCSS'] = ‘../styles/style.css’;
</code>

The next step was a dynamic xml file for fckstyles.xml. What I wanted to do is to parse the css file for each site and dynamically display these styles in the drop down. So here is what I came up with:

<code>
<!—- fckstyles.xml.cfm —>
<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly=true>
<cfsetting showdebugoutput=false>
<cfsilent>
<cffile action=”read” file=”#ExpandPath(‘../Path/To/File/css/display.css’)#” variable=”css” />
<cfoutput>
<cfset variables.count= 0 />
<cfset variables.styleList = “” />
<cfloop list=”#css#” delimiters=”{” index=”i”>
<cfset variables.count = variables.count + 1 />
<cfif variables.count eq 1>
<cfset variables.styleList = i />
<cfelse>
<cftry>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(ListGetAt(i,2,’}'),2,’.') />
<cfif FindNoCase(‘:’,variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(variables.thisClass,1,’:') />
<cfif FindNoCase(‘ ‘,variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(variables.thisClass,1,’ ‘) />
</cfif>
<cfelse>
<cfif FindNoCase(‘ ‘,variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.thisClass = ListGetAt(variables.thisClass,1,’ ‘) />
</cfif>
</cfif>
<cfif not ListFind(variables.styleList,variables.thisClass)>
<cfset variables.styleList = trim(variables.styleList) & ‘,’ & trim(variables.thisClass) />
</cfif>
<cfcatch type=”any”>
<!– fail silently —>
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
<cfset variables.ignoreList = “body” />
<cfsavecontent variable=”FCKStyles”><?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″ ?>
<Styles>
<cfloop list=”#variables.styleList#” index=”thisClass”>
<cfif not ListFindNoCase(variables.ignoreList,thisClass)>
<Style name=”#thisClass#” element=”div”>
<Attribute name=”class” value=”#thisClass#” />
</Style>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</Styles>
</cfsavecontent>
</cfoutput>
</cfsilent>
<cfcontent type=”text/xml” reset=”true”><cfoutput>#FCKStyles#</cfoutput>

</code>

One of the keys is to rename the file with a .cfm extensions. This allows ColdFusion to process it. Once the file in generating correctly, you simply pass in that path.

<code>
fckEditor.Config['StylesXmlPath'] = ‘#basePath#fckstyles.xml.cfm’;
</code>

I hope this helps.
