CFuze Blog : ColdFusion

LaRue Tactical Weapon Profiler has a new domain!

Due to the overwhelming success of the LaRue Tactical Weapon Profiler, we had to move it to its own site.

It can now be found at: http://www.larueprofiler.com

This amazing tool has become a major hit in the airsoft community and has users from all around the world. Stay tuned as we continue to improve upon the already successful design.

Additionally, it has initially been entered into the 2008 Adobe MAX awards. Wish us luck!

New Component for Download - CF_GoogleImages

A personal project came up where I needed to be able to return the first photo of the google image search; kind of like, google's get lucky for images. I wanted to be able to get the photo, copy it and resize it to my server, then take the new path, store it in the database so it can be displayed in a grid. It works amazingly well and is even better when you utilize flash remoting with your flash cfform. Anyway, I have simplified and documented the CFC and it is available for anyone to download in the downloads section. I plan on releasing more of my personal components, UDF's, and custom tags pretty soon, so please come back and check!

If you have any problems or questions, please just comment on this blog for others!

SQLi Attacks and CFuze

So with the rash of SQL Injection attacks happening on ColdFusion sites, CFuze would like to state that all of our sites have always used

 <cfqueryparam>
from the beginning. CFuze prefers to have a quite pessimistic view on security, in that, we believe you can never have too much of it. It is surprising to us, that many sites have never used that tag and further more that many sites do not even leverage the ease of CFC's. It is important that any ColdFusion based site leverage every tag given to us by Adobe as they all have a purpose and a function that ultimately, only simplifies our job as developers.

For all of those who were attacked, we hope the damage was minimal, and for all of our clients who are worried, do not fear a SQLi attack. CFuze has always kept your site safe!
