I had the pleasure of working an issue just the other day where an internal web application didn’t seem to be responding. At first I suspected some type of bug in environment configuration, or some other type of obscure thing. The app worked in other environments, so that was my first suspicion. After a bit [...]

Join me tomorrow night at the Dallas/Ft. Worth ColdFusion User Group meeting where Dave Shuck will be presenting a beginner’s introduction to ColdSpring and dependency injection, following by yours truly presenting Chapter 7 of the Head First Design Patterns book: Adapter and Facade patterns.

While going over the DreamInCode.net forums I came across this question.

Good day everyone. I’m hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I’ve been using Coldfusion for awhile, although I admit, I’m not a master at it.

I’m pulling my hair out on a project I’m hoping someone can shed some light on.
