This editorial has been written in a way unlike any article you've ever read in this magazine. As a testament to the focus of this issue - 'ColdFusion and Wireless' - I'm typing it (albeit painstakingly so) on my RIM Blackberry 957. Three sentences in, I can tell you that it's by no me...
In this article we describe how combining WML, ColdFusion, and the Fusebox methodology enables wireless data updates of the data- base of a working e-commerce Web site. To provide some context, we begin with a discussion of what this Web site is and what it does.
This article demonstrates how to use Allaire's XML serialization technique, Web Distributed Data eXchange (WDDX [described at www.wddx.org]), to transfer CFML data structures from the server to the client, and into JavaScript and back. Generally WDDX's approach is to interchange data ...
CFDJ: Tell us about AbleCommerce and Able Solutions. What are you all about? Newling: AbleCommerce was founded in 1994. We came across ColdFusion toward the end of that year. We'd originally developed an e-commerce application in C. When we saw how much opportunity there was to use th...
My thanks to those of you who've read this column and let me know that it's actually helped. Even more thanks to those who've sent in questions - keep them coming! Here are some of the most recent ones.

Dirig Delivers Management for CF Application Server (Nashua, NH) - Dirig Software has released a new Specific Application Manager (SAM) for proactively managing ColdFusion. The new SAM, added to Dirig's SAM portfolio, is designed to enhance management capabilities for IT managers respo...
Fourteen columns ago in CFDJ (Vol. 1, issue 6) I wrote about wireless computing having finally come of age, the importance of WAP, and that ColdFusion developers could leverage this new and exciting technology quickly and easily.

When your users experience a CF error, do they still see the traditional default - a plain black-on-white CF error screen? More important, are you being notified when such errors occur? Would you like to log the errors to a database? If you're not taking advantage of such capabilities...
In recent years we've witnessed a trend in which organizations gather, codify, evaluate, and disseminate seemingly endless lists of 'Best Practices' - guidelines that help promote the success of their business, the consistency of their actions and, presumably, the general cheerfulness...
This article describes Allaire's technology roadmap. Allaire started off with a single product, the ColdFusion Web application server. Now they have many products, and there's an increasingly strong relationship between them. Allaire is using a range of code names to refer to its produ...
