  • ColdFusion File Manager for TinyMCE
    In the latest version of TeaPot blog application I added an complete file manager function to the TinyMCE interface. Here I tried to pull that function out as an individual module so we can use it on other things. Previously I wrote ImageManager for TinyMCE/CKEditor which is quite simple and straight forward, but this version is bit more comprehensive.  This File Manager help you browse through user's files, upload new files, create folders and keep them organized.

  • Code 128 Barcode string encode with ColdFusion
    There are multiple ways to generate Code 128 barcodes. Barcode4j and Barbecue are two wonderful java projects that we can use with ColdFusion; both of them generate barcode that can be saved as image files. Code 128 barcode also can be draw using a Code 128 barcode font. They are not that dificult to find, even free Code 128 barcode fonts. I guess different situations favor font over images or vise versa. But I been working on an InDesign server project, I choose to go with Code 128 font. (more..)

  • Image Trim with ColdFusion
    I was working on QR barcode using Zxing and the barcode generated by Zxing tend to give extra white spaces on some barcodes but my designer wanted trimmed image without extra white space around. ColdFusion does not have an image trim function, so I put together a small function to trim background of an image. This function takes two arguments. Image (required) This can take ColdFusion image object or path to an image file. (more..)

  • DNSPark DDNS update with ColdFusion
    This website is hosted in a server that laying under my TV stand for past couple of years. I blogged about my initial setup, even though the setup have improved a bit since then, I still use DNSPark.com to host my DNS records. With having a Dynamic IP, occasionally my IP address changes. Since I have not running any DDNS update client in my server as any other normal person would do, I had to update new IP address directly in DNSPark.com admin interface. (more..)

  • Talking to External inDesign server with ColdFusion
    In the previous post I wrote about how to connect to inDesign web services using ColdFusion. But if your inDesign server is running on a deferent IP from your ColdFusion server, you might get an error: Cannot perform web service invocation runScript. ColdFusion gives you this message not because your network administrator blocked the port 18383, you know the it's open because you can access http://my-indesign-server-ip-goes-here:18383/service?wsdl from the ColdFusion box.

  • Create QR Barcode with ColdFusion and Zxing
    Too often I write “It was too easy with ColdFusion”, it’s becoming a cliché now. Making a QR barcode with ColdFusion was extremely easy too, specially when someone else have already blog about it. I had nothing to dig out, nothing to investigate or haven’t had the need for countless cups of coffee. I wish everything works like that.This uses Google zxing java library. I put necessary classes into a single jar file and you can download the example below. (more..)

  • Simple JQuery Autosuggest Dropdown ColdFusion Custom Tag
    Before I found JQuery or JQuery found me and fall in internal blissful love, I wrote an autosuggest dropdown function which I have been using for years. It took almost a week to write and stretch as far as my house to Minnesota. Recently I caught in a habit of simplifying my old pure JavaScript function to JQuery and this function caught me today. After around 20 lines of JavaScript and couple of hours of testing and tweaking this starts to work better than my original function. (more..)

  • Create USPS PostNet String With ColdFusion
    I know PostNet is about to expire in couple of months. But today I had to create few shipping labels, and put to gather a simple function to assemble PostNet String. Mind you, this does not create the actual PostNet barcode. I use a PostNet Font to create the barcode, this is to create a valid PostNet string from a ZIP Code so you can print it with a PostNet barcode font. Pass your zip5 or zip9 to the function, it will return the string to be printed. (more..)
