1 - Minor AmazonS3.cfc Bug Fix
Today I identified a subtle bug with the listObjects method of AmazonS3.cfc dealing with delimiters. If you supply a prefix that ends with a trailing delimiter, certain paths would be returned partially truncated. Removing the trailing delimiter solves the issue, so there's an easy workaround, but I've added a snippet to take care of that if you inadvertantly pass one in. The patched CFC is available here. You can always get the latest version on the project page.

4 - Scope Behavior When Using CFThread Inside Of ColdFusion Components
The other day, I was using CFThread to call a ColdFusion component method asynchronously. Typically, when I use CFThread, I define my CFThread tags in the controller. In this case, however, I was making the asynchronous call from within the context of the component itself. This works very well. But, but there are some minor variances in scope-behavior that depend on how the asynchronous method is invoked. Before we get into the CFThread / scope interaction caveats, however, I thought I' ...

6 - Rims Visualizer Application Using Flash and Coldfusion
I have been very busy the past few months due my recent relocation back to Florida and working in a very cool project. Last weekend I just released a cool interactive tool for one of my clients. This tool would allow customers upload pictures of theirs on vehicle and visualize new rims on it. From there they can save and share on Facebook or Twitter, and click the "buy now" button to see more specific details about the wheel and finalize the checkout process. This project took us 6 months from planning, project, hire the resources and put everything together.

8 - ColdFusion's Multi File uploader is impacted by debugging
Ok, so this probably falls into the realm of "Obvious", but both myself and a reader were surprised by this. Credit for it goes to John Pansewicz. He pinged me earlier this week saying that ColdFusion 9's multi file uploader failed to work for him. No matter what he uploaded he got a bad result. I tried the same code on my machine and saw nothing wrong. Then John figured out that it was ColdFusion debugging breaking the response. Again - obvious - but I tend to only worry about debugging when running against CFCs and Ajax applications. The multi file uploader is a Flash application and it just didn't occur to me that I had to be concerned about it. However - if you look at the docs for the feature (see here) you can see that JSON must be output to the control for it to know how the files were processed. Anything that breaks that JSON (including ColdFusion debugging) will make the control think the files had an error during the upload. Finally - don't forget that you can turn off debugging on a request by request basis. Don't think you must completely turn off the feature if you have one bit of JSON in your local project. Just make use of the cfsetting tag to disable it for that particular request.

10 - Creating Base64-Encoded Data URLs For Images In ColdFusion
Typically, when we want to include an image in a web page, we use an IMG tag with a SRC value that points to a file located on the server (ex. my_image.jpg). Modern browsers, however, allow us to embed images directly in the page markup as Base64-encoded "data urls." For caching and performance reasons, you generally wouldn't want to use data urls to define your images; however, in some cases, it's tremendously useful to serialize and reference an image without needing an additional HTTP requ ...

16 - ColdFusion and cfquerynew and date times - timestamp
ColdFusion is typless this make's lots of things easy but when creating a new query we have to be careful as occasionally ColdFusion will do it's own thing and "type" a column as the wrong "type" ie treat a date/time as a string for example.We had an instance of this recently which is not easily reproducible but was fixed by forcing column to "timeStamp".While searching for the cause of this I used the ColdFusion docs to ensure I was using the right types and well according to the docs type "date" shoudl allow date and time information but it did

I've been working on a little proof of concept idea and wanted to see if other people liked it and perhaps wanted to see it go further. I've heard a couple of calls for command line ColdFusion. I wanted to see if it could be done. My first experiment was trying to use AIR new native processes to make a command line client for ColdFusion. It didn't pan out. But the api I used to make it was easily adaptable. I combined it with a socket listener event gateway to make a ColdFusion telnet client. The video shows it in
