How do you organize your web root?

Hello,
I'm working on an internal web application for our office. I'm fairly new to ColdFusion, but I've been using other languages for a long time. I'm most familiar with Python and the Django framework.
I'm a little lost as to how to keep my web root directory organized. I understand that in ColdFusion 9 it is suggested that I package various things into their own applications, and in the web root they're under their application directory path. I plan on doing this. What about things like re-usable html templates? Is there a nice way to create html templates, and render a page using them? Or does ColdFusion only offer the PHP-like "include 'template.cfm'" method of doing this? For some reason this just feels messy to me.
How do others organize their web root directories?
Thanks,
Ryan

ColdFusion, itself, does not provide any type of framework for this.  But there are many communtity frameworks built on ColdFusion that provide this type of organizaiton to lesser and greater extents.  Some of the big ones are; MachII, Model-Glue, Fusebox, On-Tap and many others.
ColdFusion by itself is designed to work just as well with a framework as without it just doesn't care.
As well as the previously mentioned <cfinclude...> functionality.  You may want to look a:

  • How do you rename your web page?

    When you google my company name the link to my web site comes up but it is named my phone number. I tried to go to Page Inspector and type in my page name but is will not let me type in the box. My site name is my URL and I am scared to change that. Does anyone know how to change this?

    No, you are not trying to do the same thing and you cannot change your username in an MMe account. You can log into your account and change your password, but not your username. If you want a different username, then you will need to set up another MMe account.
    Just give your site a name that is applicable to your business so your url is http://web.me.com/username/business site name. Either this or you need to purchase a domain name with the business name that you want and you can then either upload your site directly or use domain forwarding if you publish to MobileMe.

    I'll make a stab at your question:
    The following is an example of where a URL is protected within a web.xml deployment descriptor. In this example, the URL /protectedA within the application is protected:
    <!-- security constraints -->
    <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
    <web-resource-name>protectedA</web-resource-name>

  • How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.

    Hi,

    Some websites are able to override the tab setting you may have set and open a second window behind the current open one.
    Use the Red/Close button top left when this happens.

  • How do you HYPERLINK a web page address to an EXCEL document in Firefox like is possible in Explorer

    How do you HYPERLINK a web page address to an EXCEL document in Firefox like is possible in Explorer?

    When you follow a hyperlink in Excel, usually it should open in your default browser. You shouldn't have to do anything special in Excel to create the link when Firefox is your default browser compared with IE. However, the Insert Hyperlink dialog might work differently. I think it might be able to automatically pre-populate a URL from IE, while in Firefox, you need to copy the URL from Firefox's address bar and paste it into the Insert Link dialog.

  • How do you read your favorite feeds?

    Hi! This is my very first post on Arch forums.
    I'm wondering about how do you read your favorite feeds? Which software do you use and why (what kind of features).
    I'm more interested in finding a little software that uses the system tray.
    Yet I'm also curious about just how does, those who utilize RSS, do it.
    Personally I've used YARSSR, which is exactly what I want, except for few problems..
    On Ubuntu it used to be as easy as make, make install (having build-essenial installed). On Debian 4.0 stable it is in the stable repos, so it was even easier. On Arch it's not in any of the repos nor AUR and make, make install didn't work:
    # yarssr
    bash: yarssr: command not found
    # /usr/local/bin/yarssr
    Can't locate Gnome2.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/yarssr /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.3 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/local/lib/yarssr/Yarssr.pm line 3.

    Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/bin/yarssr line 13.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/bin/yarssr line 13.
    I'd love to understand what's going on. How to install it right.
    Anyhow, it's far from perfect anyway. It's the single thing that is not working so perfectly on my Debian as it should. Uses way too much CPU, sometimes stays trying to update and never does update nor allow forced updates, no quitting, etc..
    I also use Google Reader, which is great to read many feeds and manage them, etc.
    All I want is a little applet (maybe GNOME applet?) that gives me quick glimpse of my top favorite feeds, without using my browser nor launching a full-functional aggregator.

    Hi James.
    I'd like to know how you want to read your news
    i'd prefer a cli frontend, web front would be bonus (river of news style).
    snownews is good, just needs a few tweaks, some ui ones, and the main one being:
    often i dont get to read news for a few days straight, so i'd like something i can put in cron and it'll update, and log the news for a few days straight, so when i get back it's all there. this generally limits me to one of the web clients, i dont know any desktop apps that do this.
    i might write up an app to do this someday
    as for your yassr problem, pacman -S gnome-perl?

  • How do you use your iPod Touch?

    I'm thinking of buying an ipod touch 5th gen, but I have to convince myself that it would help me significantly before I drop $300 on a device. My question: how do you use your iPod Touch, aka, what things have helped you significantly, excluding games? I've heard a ton about how awesome the new version is, and everything about its camera and retina display, but I want to know that I would actually use one first....
    Thanks.

    Surf the web from bed and coffee shops/bookstores.  When in a store that has WiFi I may research a product that looks interesting to buy.
    It is a camera that is always with you (assuming you always take it with you), so you can capture that picture that happens once in a life time.  Also the camera is great when shopping for "Big Ticket" items as you can take pictures to remind you of things you were looking at so you can do additional research at home before making your final decision.
    Check my mail from bed and coffee shops/bookstores, etc... when WiFi is available.
    Use it as an alarm clock, meeting reminder, todo reminder.
    Take notes (not school notes, just ideas, stuff I maybe want to buy, useful information I may pick up in a bookstore, books I may want to buy, etc...)
    Contains my contacts for friends, family, and businesses (plumber, dentist, doctor, etc...)
    Plays music, or in my case, I listen to podcasts
    Reading ebooks.  I use it a lot to read ebooks.  It is always with me, so I can read a book anywhere, such as waiting in a doctor/dentist office, at the motor vehicle registry.  And reading in bed is great as when you fall asleep, it remembers what page you were on vs that book that drops onto your face and wakes you back up while at the same time loosing your page
    The Maps app is great for finding where something is located, and plotting how to get there (not as good as having an iPhone with GPS, but still useful).  Also the satellite images make it easier to visualize where you are going.
    When connected to WiFi it can be used for Facetime when calling a friend or family member that also has an iOS device.  Seeing a loved one when they are not near can be emotionally satisfying.  You can also make skype calls.
    I use 1Password to store all my passwords.  It keeps them secure, I always have them with me, and I do not need to use the same password over and over again, or make them too simple to remember.  1Password has a built-in browser so you it can substitute the correct password for the web site you are visting without actually needing to look it up.
    1Password related but not passwords.  Because 1Password encrypts all the data it holds, I can also store sensitive information (such as medical conditions, or other information I do not want made public should my device be lost or stolen), yet always have that information with me should I need it.
    I can get the weather.  This week, I've been using an app to get high/low Tide infromation, plus sunrise information.  But getting weather info when you wake up so you can plan your day and if you need to shovel the driveway before going to work.  I find it easier to get the weather from my iOS device than it is to use my laptop or turn on the Weather Channel.
    Calclator.  2+2 = 4, but there are times you do need to get something right, and calculators are useful. They have all kinds available, including hexidecimal calculators for programmers.
    RSS newsfeed reader (I follow about 20+ feeds, including these discussions groups via RSS feeds).
    Travel services.  Most airports have WiFi, and you can get updated travel info for your flights via some speciallized travel apps.
    If you are into tracking your car mileage, gas usage, maintenance costs, etc..., there are apps for that.
    While you can watch video on your iOS device (downloaded movies, YouTube), you can also stream movies from services such as Netflix.  This can be useful when traveling, or if you are stuck in bed with a cold, or if you have lost control of the "Remote" and do not want to watch "Dancing with the Stars"
    TV related, there are apps that will give you the TV schedule for your area, so you can browse the shows on this evening.
    List.  You can keep lists, including grocery shopping lists, items to pack for a trip lists, things to do for that bathroom remodel, things you need to get before school starts, Christmas lists, etc....  NOTE:  Ideas for Christmas/Birthday/Anniversary gifts may come anytime during the year, but if you do not write them down, you may be scratching your head when the event arrives.  Putting them in a list can help you later on.
    You can get a Level app.  You may laugh, but I have actually used my iOS device to check if something was level.  It was there, and a carpenters level was not.  Not perfect, but it did what I needed at the time.
    Finding a good resturante (Yelp, Urbanspoon, etc...).  The iOS device can be very helpful in finding a good nearby place to eat when away from home, or even discovering a new play where you live to get out of that eat at the same place rut.
    That is some of the things I use my iOS device for.

  • Professionals, how did you get your start?

    I know there are many people on here who earn a living working as professionals. I was just curious, how did you get your start?
    I plan to attend Ohio University this fall to major in video production within the Scripps School of Communication. OU is well known for their school of communication, but obviously just having a good name behind your major doesn't guarantee a job.
    What did you do to make yourself more marketable to potential employers? Any other advice that you have to share?
    Thanks in advance
    D

    I started out as an apprentice editor on a feature film.  Got the job mainly because I fixed the director's assistant's computer during my interview.  Knowing how to use the Avid (thanks to film school) helped too. 
    I started at the bottom, and worked my way up.  Gaining knowledge as I went.  Apprentice editor, to tape vault manager, to post coordinator, to assistant editor, to online editor, back to assistant, then to editor.  6 years from the day I started apprenticing until the day I started editing a broadcast show.
    >What did you do to make yourself more marketable to potential employers?
    Learned the ins and outs of the edit systems. I could troubleshoot them if they were broken, and knew the workflows for multiple shooting formats.  Was able to make the decision on edit systems to use and workflows to employ when presented with the shooting format, and delivery specs.  I learned all that from on the job training, and trolling the web for resources.  And a lot of work on my own.
    >Any other advice that you have to share?
    Work your @$$ off!  If you think the job is below you, and act that way, you won't get hired again.  Don't think that you will start off right away as an editor, or DP, or director.  Starting out as an assistant is a great way to learn all that you need to learn to perform your job.  Because right out of film school, you don't know what you don't know.  But work hard, be dependable, and you will get hired again and again.

  • How do you use edge web font in Edge Reflow?

    By default, I don't have a lot of fonts. It's just viewing a few of them.
    How can you get the web font for Edge Reflow? Can you use font from fontbook?
    Is there a way to download Edge Web Font?

    Above: using Brandon Grotesque (web use font) does not display the correct font.
    I'm using Typekit and have an internet connection. If I switch to a "desktop use" font, it shows up, so I'm guessing the "web use" only fonts won't show in Reflow. A little frustrating when you're trying to get an accurate preview/determine best font styling because of the back-and-forth workflow.
    Above: using Source Sans Pro (desktop use font) does display the correct font.
