Yesterday I did something I have never done before. In over a decade of travel, bouncing between cities, states, and countries, I have never messed up time zones. Until yesterday, that is. For the past four decades, Indiana has been in the Eastern Time Zone, with the exception of ten counties in...
One of the Scorpio features that we've been demoing to wide acclaim, is the increased control and flexibility in managing ColdFusion Administrator Access and RDS access. In ColdFusion today, there is a single password for each of these features, and a user with the Administrator password has full...
Both of yesterday's event were superb. We had a lunchtime crowd of about 75 in Minneapolis, and they loved Scorpio (and the free food). I had to cut the session at 2:00 to get to the airport to catch my flight to Chicago. A flight delay meant that we started a little late in Chicago, but the crowd...

ColdFusion has supported Regular Expressions for a while, but I've always missed a REMatch() function, one that would locate all matches and return them. Over the years several of us have written our own functions to do this, but that's no longer needed - REMatch() and REMatchNoCase() are both in...
Lots of you have been asking about Scorpio's planned tag, wanting to know what image formats will be supported (many of you asking about GIF and PNG specifically). So, as long as you keep in mind that Scorpio is a work-in-progress and that features and specs can change ... Scorpio has two new...
