Adding fck Rich Text Editor to your Coldfusion forms & customising the Toolbar set |
Whilst writing a Content Management System (CMS) recently I thought I'd take the time to go over some Coldfusion 8 functionality that passed me by when it was released.
In Coldfusion 8 the fck editor was included as part of the server installation. This article deals with integrating it into your forms, and how to build a custom tool bar set to manage the options displayed with it.

Handling JavaScript event model differences in Internet Explorer and Firefox |
A few weeks ago I created an inline editing system for a Content Management System. It allowed a user to click on a page element and edit it inline. The updated data was then submitted through an AJAX request.
I have recently discovered an issue with some of the JavaScript code that I wrote in the event handling routine.

Free Coffee in starbucks tomorrow - April 15th |
On Thursday 15 April only, take a re-usable travel flask into Starbucks and get any sized free hot or iced espresso drink worth about £2.65. Any drink with an espresso shot is included in the offer, for example a latte, cappuccino, americano, macchiato, inc. flavoured versions.
The offer's available nationwide from 7am to 11pm (provided your local store is open) at participating stores. For full details read about Starbuck's eco campaign 'the Big Picture'.
What counts as a reusable travel mug? It needs to be something you can transport your coffee in easily and that you will use again, eg a polystyrene cup won't work. A ceramic mug from home won't be accepted either. A bog-standard packed lunch flask should do the trick!

Flash content incompatibilities with lightbox’s and DHTML Div’s |
I've seen the issue a few times in my travels where there is flash content on a page, and other content IE DHTML Div's has been triggered and the new content has slipped behind the flash in a really ugly way.
I found myself in this position building an image gallery with YouTube videos in it. Clicking on a lightbox link caused a flash video to show through the new lighbox pop up.
Like this: Test script showing flash messing up my lightbox.
