Agenda

Discussions of Adobe's LiveCycle Data Services are often entered with the same trepidation as those of Organic Chemistry or Quantum Mechanics, but with ColdFusion, building Web applications that manage complex data sets doesn't have to be that scary. Data Management is a pillar of LCDS that offers scalable, real-time data synchronization across very large numbers of connected clients with the benefits of conflict resolution and data pagination. Come learn how to quickly get up to speed with Data Management by letting ColdFusion do the hard work for you.

Speakers

Jason Dean, the ColdFusion blogosphere's resident security expert, will be presenting to us via Connect. Jason's blog can be found at http://www.12robots.com/.

Agenda

We've all parameterized our SQL queries to prevent SQL injection attacks, right? So what's next? Are our applications safe now? No, they are not. SQL injection is only the tip of the vulnerability iceberg. There are many other security topics that need to be addressed in our applications. Threats and vulnerabilities are everywhere, and it is likely that your applications contain some of them. In this presentation we will discuss what threatens web applications and how to create countermeasures to address these vulnerabilities.

Speakers

Back by popular demand, the Boston CFUG is hosting another night where members can show off their latest projects, cool techniques, or code to everyone else. Audience members can offer comments, criticism, or offers of coding help. One lucky presenter will will the night's door prize. Members who are interested in presenting should contact co-manager Tom Mollerus at tom [at] mollerus [dot] net.

The following is a partial list of presenters:

AJ Ferrigno: Cloud Computing with ColdFusion
Heard about cloud computing? Are the concepts too "up-in-the-sky" for you? We recently went ahead and implemented one of our websites on Amazon's brand new cloud infrastructure, and we learned a lot by doing it. Hear some of our tips, suggestions, and lessons learned throughout this frontier-like task.

Tom Mollerus: WebCrypt
WebCrypt is a new project that lets you store and share credentials in a secure fashion. I'll show how I built a secure architecture and encrypted database, and how I used jQuery to add some convenient features to the interface.

John Luke Mills: ColdFusion to the Rescue
The key technical part is how to generate very precise printed output by pushing cfdocument really hard. There is also a little bit about how this ties into the rest of the application with a Flex client.

John Rice on Real World jQuery (3 Comments)

Speakers

John is a long time ColdFusion developer who was implementing ColdFusion
powered ajax-like features as early as 1999 by using hidden frames instead
of httpRequest() and WddxRecordset() with CFWDDX in place of JSON. John
currently specializes in laboratory automation. With CF server as his
swiss army knife, he integrates CF with myriad technologies including
.NET, Perl, Python, Java and other proprietary interfaces to laboratory
robots.

Agenda

Many jQuery examples lead to code that is difficult to maintain. We'll
look at how to decouple anonymous functions to create reusable,
maintainable code. We'll add jQuery into an existing common application
to make sortable, paginated tables from existing code. We will replace
standard event handlers and DOM manipulation JavaScript with jQuery
implementations for a before and after view of just how much code jQuery
saves. We will also implement serverside form validation via Ajax without
the user ever leaving the form.
