ColdFusion MX 7 Updater released

This is really a great updater, as it has several bug fixes plus some enhancements. Everybody using Flash Forms should download it right now! We would like to thank Mike Nimer and the ColdFusion team for the many bug fixes and enhancements made to the Flash Forms.

These are my favorites:

  • Script cfformitem type to write your own ActionScript functions, no more savecontent hack needed
  • onload for Flash forms, no more ugly hacks
  • onFocus and onBlur events for Flash Forms
  • Mac OSX support
  • date mask in cfgrid works
  • id=“” works for most controls now
  • cftextarea tag has a new attribute, html=”true|false”,

On the down side, new ActionScript keywords have been banned from Flash forms:

  • createchild
  • Createchildatdepth
  • Createchildren
  • Createclasschildatdepth
  • Createclassobject
  • Createemptyobject
  • createobject
  • httpservice
  • remoteobject
  • Uiobjectdescriptor
  • webservice
