The solution to the problem can be seen in the cfWindowScrollIntoView() function I created below

Willis asked:

This is actually pretty easy, all you need to do is set up a listener on the contextmenu event and have the listener cancel the event. Here is the code (click here to try it):

A while back I blogged about a div layer positioning glitch that occurs in IE when you position a cfinput datefield above a cflayout or cfdiv generated div layer. This problem seems to be cause by the fact that in IE, a relative positioned element influences the stacking order of it's child-elements, which violates the CSS specification, but who really needs standards anyways right?

Well, I figured out a way to workaround it, and it's really stupid that I didn't think of it before. I kept trying (unsuccessfully) to write a JavaScript function that would find the layers and reposition them after the page loaded, when finally a light bulb went on in my head, and I came up with a much simpler solution.

In a comment on a previous post I wrote about Enhancing CFWindow with JavaScript, Ebenezer asked the question:

Below is an example of how to remove the toolbar and borders from the cfwindow and display the large image when you rollover the thumbnail.

In a comment on a previous post I wrote about Enhancing CFWindow with JavaScript, Nathan asked the question:

The answer is to use the Ext.BasicDialog.center() function, then get the windows Ext.Element object using the Ext.BasicDialog.getEl() function. The Ext.Element object has the getX() and getY() methods, which will give you access to the windows X and Y coordinates. You can use those, in combination with the Ext.BasicDialog.moveTo() function, to move the window to your desired position relative to the center.

At last nights Orange County ColdFusion Users Group meeting (occfug.org) I presented on the topic of integrating the Google Maps API into a ColdFusion application. I made a custom tag for the presentation that generates a Google API powered map, and I am posting it here for all the people that wanted access to the source code.

Michael Asked:

As a matter of fact, the Ext.BasicDialog object that powers the CFWindow tag does have a "collapsible" configuration option. However, Adobe did not add that as an attribute in the CF8 implementation of CFWindow. They currently have it hard-coded so that all CFWindow generated dialogs are set to "collapsible:false". Hopefully they will add a collapsible attribute to the CFWindow tag in some future release, but until then, adding the Minimize/Maximize button onto the CFWindow tool bar is a fairly painless job with the snippet of JavaScript that you can find below.

I was working on a project the other day that was using CFGrid to manage some data and there was a button on each row to perform a certain action. However, we didn't want the background color of a row to change when the user clicks on a row or on the button. I created this little javascript that adds a listener to the "beforerowselect" event in the underlying Ext.grid's Row Selection Model and cancels any row selections, preventing the row from being highlighted.

The CFWindow tag is built using the Ext.BasicDialog object. This object has several public events that you can add listeners to. You can use the Ext.BasicDialog objects on() function to add listeners to these events that will fire a specific function when the specified event occurs. You can program the listener functions to react as necessary to the various events. Here is a list of the events that you can set up listeners for:

In a previous post I created a CFC to save simple variables into the session scope. In that CFC I had set up two functions, "SetSessionVar" and "GetSessionVar". However I ended up only needing the "SetSessionVar" function for my example so I never really tested the "GetSessionVar" function. Someone asked me today how to invoke it, and that is when I realized there were a couple little problems that I needed to fix.
