Is Adobe Contribute 6.5 the right tool to update the design of my website written in ColdFusion 8?

I am trying to decide between Contribute or purchasing ColdFusion.  Because I do not currently own ColdFusion I have no way to read the .cfm files, and would to save the money on my purchase if possible.

Are you an application developer or do you just need to update content on an existing site?
As an application developer, there are a variety of programs you can use to edit .cfm files, as they are just text files. But here are a few that I have used:
Eclipse with the CFEclipse plugin (these tools are free)
Dreamweaver
ColdFusion Builder
I have only a passing familiarity with Contribute, but I believe it is largely used to control edit access/delegate responsibility over parts of your site to content editors, and to provide those content editors with WYSIWYG tools for editing.

  • Adobe AIR for Video Wall project - the right tool?

    I need to decide whether Adobe AIR is the right tool for a Video Wall project. The Video wall would be one of only 4 installations.
    It would need good offline capability.
    The application would play back both canned video as well as twitter feeds.
    The other option is to go all HTML with perhaps the Canvas element to display video, graphics.
    I'm biased towards using Flash, AIR but am open to new ideas.
    What are the pros, cons of each approach?

    Pros of the Adobe route would be a little more control and reliability. You can easily go fullscreen, preload other videos easily in the background and display them on the hardware GPU decoded StageVideo (with the right video card, almost all of them at this point). Twitter feed loading would have some robust error handling to assure it goes smoothly but if you need offline capability you'll need some canned material for the feeds in that situation.
    HTML can go fullscreen but the caveat would be drawing your twitter feed over the video at that point. Because it's fullscreen I don't believe you can have your text over it from a <video> element but you'd need to use <canvas>'s fullscreen and actually mux the text into the video.
    The long haul of Adobe's roadmap clearly states video and games are the future of FP and AIR. I've done tons of kiosks in Flash and AIR, many of which just act as a video wall, attracting people to very large screens. I've had nothing but success doing this. I'd only even approach HTML5 if you have some reason to desire to put this on the web, and even then, Flash is still fine in that situation too.

  • I need to know the right tools and java technology

    Please help,I need to know the right tools and java technology to support what I need.
    I had background programming in Assembly,C++,Visual Basic,SAP/ABAP 4.
    All I can say, programming is about logic, now we are very helped building program using objects.
    I'm very interest to SAP tech, where all screens, programs, reports are resides on tables, this is the real dynamic!
    CUrrently I'm eager to do the same technic with java. I'm new to java....
    What I know the J2EE is the core for me to start is it right? I was very interest with the Client-Server Tech. How can I impelemet this with Java?
    I'm a bit confuse with so many java solutions. There is Java Applets, Swing, Java AWT, JavaBeans, etc...
    I don't know what is the best if I want my Presentation/Client Application will run within browser (not standard html, using like windows gui). What should I do to make business logic objects, how to invoke it within the gui. how to make installation package whenever clients connect to the http server.
    if you have a pointer to do it please let me know.... I'm very appreciate all your response...
    Best regards,
    Lucky Pangemanan

    I'd say - don't get carried away with the heavyweight frameworks. Don't use EJB if Hibernate and/or Tomcat will do the job. There's a danger of winding up using a bulldozer to crack a wallnut.
    What people mean by "J2EE" varies a fair bit.
    Start with Tomcat, which has the virtue of being free. Try some JSPs and servlets.
    Use Applets to do client side presentation only if you must; Applets create an installation overhead on end-users, and some of them can't cope, while others may not have the necessary installation permissions on their office machines. They are pretty rarely needed, IMNSHO, most client-side behaviour is better handled with html and JavaScript.

  • Process triggered by file upload - is GP the right tool?

    Hello All,
    I have a process I need to model that starts with a file upload from the user, followed by some manipulation of the file by some web services.
    Is GP the right tool for modeling that process?
    After completing the file upload action, how can I access the the uploaded file on the server?
    Do I need to implement the file upload handling with Webdynpor?
    Thanks!
    Yossi

    Yossin,
    Based on your requirement, the GP process would be to use File Input CO followed by Web Service CO (in that order). Consolidate the output param of File Input CO (which is the File Structure) to the input for the Web Service CO (which is also a structure). I dont think you need to save the file to the local drive. The web service should be able to consume the uploaded file (which resides in the process context).
    Thanx,
    Mahesh

  • Is SSAS the right tool to replace SAS Enterprise Guide?

    I am in the process of studying the feasibility of replacing one of our custom built SAS Data Warehouse with Microsoft BI/DW stack.
    I have one specific question that I hope someone here who knows both SSAS and SAS Enterprise Guide can tell me. Feature by feature, in what extent can SSAS replace SAS
    Enterprise Guide?
    To those who has less knowledge of SAS Enterprise Guide, it is a client app that let power users query against database tables/views and apply various statistical analysis
    to the data then output (print/email/save) the result (grid/chart/etc.).
    To name a few of these statistical analysis,
    Under Describe, there are Distribution Analysis; One-Way Frequencies; and Table Analysis;
    Under ANOVA: t Test; One-way ANOVA; Nonparametric One-way ANOVA; linear Models; Mixed Models.
    Under Regression: Linear; Nonlinear; Logistic and Generalized Linear.
    Under Multivariate: Correlations; Canonical Correlation; Principal Components; Factor Analysis…
    And if SSAS along is not enough, what else are needed?
    Thanks!

    Hi Hommer,
    Based on your description, you said that “SAS Enterprise Guide is a client app that let power users query against database tables/views and apply various statistical analysis to the data then output (print/email/save) the result (grid/chart/etc)”. Since
    we are not expert about SAS Enterprise Guide, we cannot give you an exact conclusion. However what we can give you is that there are many adventures of SQL Server Analysis.
    High Performance.
    During cube processing SSAS will pre-calculate and physically stores aggregations of facts. Therefore, when the query is fired SSAS does not have to calculate the outcome from the underlying details but can take the values directly from the stored aggregations.
    High Security
    You can use the security setting to give end-users access to only those parts (slices) of the cube relevant to them.
    Multiple Access/Frontend-tools
    End users can use Microsoft Excel as a power full front-end tool on top of the cube. Besides that the same cube can at the same time be used as a data source for SSRS and SharePoint (KPI-) Web Parts.
    For analytical applications, performance management, or just about anything with a KPI, Analysis Services is the perfect companion for SQL Server. These are complementary databases that do different things well. Using the right tool for the right job will
    make development faster and usability easier.

    Hope this helps.

  • SUBINACL - the right tool for the job?

    Here is the scenario:
    DomainA and DomainB
    Full Trust both ways
    Windows File Share in DomainA. Created a windows server in DomainB. Used Quest Migration Manager to migrate users and groups from DomainA to DomianB, keeping SID history. Xcopied files from DomainA server to DomainB server, keeping the permissions from DomainA. 
    Now, the Trust will be broken and we need to change the permissions from [email protected] to [email protected] Thousands of shares and permissions, so can't do manually. So far I have tried SUBINACL in the following context:
    Subinacl /noverbose /output=e:\ntfs_perms.txt /subdirectories e:\Share
    and then
    Subinacl /playfile e:\ntfs_perms.txt
    This changed some of the permissions to DomainB, but removed a lot of permissions.
    Is this the right tool to use for this? Is this the right syntax for this scenario?
    Thanks!
    Mike

    Hi,
    Sorry for the delay reply.
    It seems like you have  enabled the SID history.
    Based on my experience, after we completing the migration, sIDHistory should be removed from migrated principals to minimize management complexity. Microsoft has provided a sample script and
    Powershell command to remove SIDHistory.
    So, please first confirm if the migration process completed or not, then plan to remove the SIDhistory.
    How To Remove SID History With PowerShell
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/ashleymcglone/archive/2011/11/23/how-to-remove-sid-history-with-powershell.aspx
    Before we do this, please backup the system state to making any important change to avoid any risk.  After clearing the SID history, please try to run the subinacl command to check if it
    works.
    Regards.

  • Creator the right tool for applets?

    Hi.
    beeing new to Sun's Java Studio Creator I would like some opinions whether the Creator is the tool to use if use cases mainly focus on applets that get their data via WebServices.
    My main use case would be an applet with a tree-control showing a lot of machine tools and an area that displayes some charts. Charts would be rendered by a 3rd party component. The Applet should talk to a WebService exchanging XML-Data.
    I just don't know if Creator is the right tool for that.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Christian

    Personally, I would opt for Net Beans 5.0 beta 2 for this type of scenario. The IDE is much better suited for Swing and AWT type of applications. In addition, it has some impressive layout managers for Swing.

  • What's the right tool to use to migrate forms modules.?

    Hi.
    I'm in doubt deciding which might be the right tool to use to migrate forms modules from 6i to 10g.
    The obvious choice seems to be Forms Migration Assistant. However I found Metalink Note: 201344.1 which clearly states :
    "We recommend to use ifcmp90 as there may arise some issues due to the migration assistant ifplsqlconv90. ifcmp90 upgrades the 6i fmb to 9i fmb whereas ifplsqlconv90 upgrades obsolete plsql , such as built-ins like set_alert_property. So it is advisable to use the ifcmp90 instead"
    I have a newer version of FMA and i've done some test and it compiles and upgrades forms modules, but does not generate fmx files. So i conclude one should user FMA first and later generate fmx files either one by one or batch compile.
    Please any comments are welcome ....!

    Hi,
    correct. You use FMA first and then compile the FMX files. You can also use the Forms builder environment to perform the migration, but FMA is more convenient to use.

  • Creating simple slideshows - is Catalyst the right tool?

    I am a photographer and I want to create a slideshow of 100 images or so to promote my business. I was doing this with iDVD and it's simple - but doesn't support HD and has no provisions for a "Ken Burns Effect". I've used iPhoto and it does everything I need, but can't really burn a disk of the slideshow that works on PCs or Macs (that I know of). I am fairly proficient in Photoshop.
    Here's my needs:
    - drop in a series of photos
    - create an order of the slides
    - a simple transition between slides (could be just a fade)
    - be able to do a manual Ken Burns on each slide (define start position and zoom / end position and zoom). So as that image is displayed it is moving somehow.
    - automatically fit the slide duration to a mix of music
    - burn a disk of that slideshow in HD (1080p or 720) give it to potential clients - they should be able to pop it into their Mac or PC and be able to play the slideshow just as I created it.
    So is this something I can do easily with Catalyst? Is there a tutorial specific for this kind of need? Is there a better app for this kind of thing?

    Robert-
    If you are looking to create DVD that is viewable on a TV or something that is viewable on a computer? Either way, Flash Catalyst is not the right tool. It might be part of an overall solution, but it might get very messy to develop. I would take a look at what Lightroom might offer, or try asking in a photography forum. They might know a tool that might fit your needs.

  • When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • How can I print in the right hand corner of the paper (no borders)?

    How can I print in the right hand corner of the paper (no borders). I have Adobe 7.

    Is that elements 7 or photoshop 7? It can make a difference.
    What you can do is create a new document that is the size of the paper, then place your document in the new document. You can now align your document to the right side of the page.
    Now print.
    Borders can have two meanings here. You can add a border to an image such as a stroke for example. The other meaning is the printer has a non-printing area called a border.
    In the former there is nothing to do as long as you did not add one. In the latter some printers do have a print to edge option, but it has to be a feature of that printer. It would be located in the print options. If the printer does not have such a feature, there is nothing you can do, short of manually cutting the paper with a paper cutter, scissors, or x-acto knife.

  • Facing Strange Problem in DIR HOW TO DISABLE THE RIGHT CLICK MOUSE IN THE DIRECTOR? (through parent script/ movie?)

    Summary : HARD QUESTION : In the DIR file, the game runs well, right click = no effect. Coz I'm not making right click scripts. BUT in EXE file, right click = ERROR.
    Explanation :
    In the Adobe Director screen, this DIR file game is worked 100%.
    I tested right click EVERYWHERE... NOTHING HAPPENS.
    Because I don't make any programming with "on rightmouseup" or "on rightmousedown" command.
    THEN, I published it into EXE...
    I tested right click EVERYWHERE...I hoped the result will be the same as DIR tests....
    WHEN I RIGHT CLICK IN THE AREA THAT'S GIVEN ON EXITFRAME ME, IT SHOWS ERROR, CHANGING PICTURES.....
    this does not happened in the DIR file...
    I didn't make a runmode program or anything else.... This is awkward... mystery for me...
    WHY THERE'S A DIFFERENCE IN DIR and EXE... it should be exactly the same result.
    I have used Director for years.... This is really strange for me...
    >>>>>>>>HOW TO DISABLE THE RIGHT CLICK MOUSE IN THE DIRECTOR?
    THIS ONE is useless.... It doesn't prevent the rightmouse click,...
          on rightmouseup me
                 nothing
         end
          on rightmousedown me
                 nothing
         end

    Dear Adobe Forums friends
    I need your help and guide through this problem...
    In the game's dir file that is run on the DIRECTOR softwawre,
    the game runs perfectly, I can do LEFT CLICKS (coz I programmed the script)
    and when I do RIGHT CLICKS = there are no effect ( coz I don't do script for it)
    LATER THIS GAME TURNED INTO EXE.
    It supposed to run like the dir file as ABOVE. BUT STRANGELY, WHEN
    I DO RIGHT CLICKS, it turns Error and showing as the picture attachment.
    The right clicks that goes error are above the picture of numeric button only. (in DIR file
    this run normal). I looked into the script behind the numeric button picture, there are only "on exitframe me", there are no script I made inside the "on exitframe me" that is triggering RIGHT CLICKS.
    1. I wonder why there are differences in DIR and EXE effect
    2. Why right click? Left click effects are all normal.
    3. IS THERE ANY WAY TO DISABLE ALL RIGHT CLICKs since the beginning of EXE. So the game will be run normal. I don't need right clicks anyway, but whenever people do right click there will be ERROR.??
    4. Is there any way to STOP THE MESSSAGE BOX TO APPEAR IN FRONT OF THE GAME? (I hate the Dirrector Error Message Box), or auto press OK.
    NB: this game uses Buddy API Xtras, File IO Xtras.
    Thx
