    As part of the code samples we are writing for the Teamwork Project Manager API, I needed to get JSP pages compiling. As I have switched mainly to Railo for all my ColdFusion development, I wanted to use that servlet engine and resin to test my work My knowledge of Resin is pretty poor so this took...

    I am a week into Flex 3 development building an AIR app to test the new API for Teamwork Project Manager and thought I would share an issue with HTTP Basic Authentication that I ran into.

    Thu, 15 Jan 2009 07:57:00 GMT
    After my initial post yesterday CFX_CompareHTML ColdFusion HTML diff custom tag I got quite a bit of feedback and one of the items raised was that some people dont like CFX tags and I should use JavaLoader to use the JAR file from within ColdFusion. (Thanks Dan Vega) I have upload...

    Wed, 07 Jan 2009 02:58:00 GMT
    I have a small project that I am working on that needs a Java custom tag that I'm writing. I need this running on ColdFusion 7/8 and Railo 3.

  • 3G iPhone Push Technology may be the answer to apps running in background
    Wed, 13 Aug 2008 12:19:00 GMT
    I upgraded to an iPhone 3G recently and love it. I am doing this one legally and have not Jailbroken it so I dont have all the cool 3rd party apps from Installer App. The main app I miss is an IM service app. I used to use Fring but now can't so I was delighted when I found Palringo. Very nice app ...
  • FeedDemon is now free. I'm happy and dismayed at the same time

    I was checking my RSS feeds (using a paid version of FeedDemon) and noticed on Nick Bradbury's blog that FeedDemon (and all newsGators non-enterprise RSS products) are being released free. While I appreciate why they are doing it, something inside me felt disappointed. Why? Cause I paid fo...
