I am a big fan of Bootstrap and recently upgraded one of my projects to v2.1.0 which was released on August 20, 2012. I have been using a custom background image for the top navbar all this while and after the upgrade, I noticed that my navbar was now white background in IE 8/9 (didn’t […]
I have upgraded to Mountain OSX Lion 10.8 since it’s release yesterday and although the installation went pretty smooth, I am noticing some issues with my Apache setup. I use Railo with Tomcat as the servlet engine and Apache as the webserver. If you have a similar setup, here are the minor things you would […]
One of the sites I am working on works differently on the desktop than it does on the iPad. And whenever I make a change, I end up having to test on both my iPad and my Mac which is OK most of the times but if I am doing more than 5-6 changes, then […]
I am starting to get into HTML5 development slowly and one of the first things that came across was the forms. HTML5 has got some nice features up it’s sleeve when it comes to forms. I won’t be going into the details of what features are available in HTML5 forms and what they do and […]

ColdFusion 10 went into public beta a couple of days ago and I installed it on a Windows 7 VM, to test it out. There are a LOT of new features in this release and I am sure the next few weeks will be pretty busy in the ColdFusion blogosphere, with posts coming from all […]

Recently, I’ve been looking at some of the caching mechanisms to allow for a faster response time from Apache webserver. I know this is a pretty huge topic and it appears that the general consensus is to use one of the known tools like redis, memcached or varnish. However, before diving into one of these […]
I was testing the ORM stuff in the latest version of Railo (3.3.1.000 final) and after setting up the ORM settings in Application.cfc, when I tried to run the code, I could not get Railo to create the database tables, even with dbcreate=”dropcreate”. Here is my code, that was not working :- [cf] this.ormsettings = […]
