Update for CF8: As an update to this entry from 2006, which is focused on CF7, I'll note that there was yet another approach that was added in CF8. Both still work and have their own value. More on the CF8 feature in my later blog entry. Still, the feature added in CF7 is important to understand, too, so please read on.

I was able to arrange to get the corrected article posted in the electronic version of the article, free for you to read, on the CFDJ site. If you're interested in the topic and/or the article, please do check it out online.

But with care, it can work, as another video shows. The keys seem to be: don't use a frozen turkey, don't use too much oil, do it outside a safe distance from the house, oh, and maybe don't do it while drinking! :-)

Enjoy the holiday, everyone (and the peace on the lists for those outside the states).

Sadly, not all the presentations offer recordings, even if they offer video. My own talk, for instance, has no MP3 available, and when I view the video, the audio was really crappy, which is perhaps why no MP3 was made available. Still, I found that 32 of the 41 talks do have audio.

Before I point that out, let me clarify that Atlas has also been renamed recently and is now named in ways that recognize the different parts. The client portion is now called the Microsoft Ajax Library.

There's a demo zip showing CF/Atlas integration available at the blog of the MS Developer who presented it at CFunited, Brad Adams. As discussed in the blog and comments, just unzip the file into your web server root. Assuming you leave it named AtlasCF, you need not change the code--except for one thing.

If you have CF Debugging turned on, the app will fail to work (without any message). Of course, the debugging will cause his CFM page (called from the Atlas client) to send the big load of HTML debugging info at the bottom of its output--and his Atlas client obviously won't be expecting that.

The simple solution is to drop:

into the application.cfm.

Sadly, he's got comments turned off so I can't offer this there, though I have emailed him and hope he may update the blog entry.

Perhaps others out there are also doing CF/Atlas integration. If so, drop some comments here for others who may be interested to hear.
