VC Star Article - Front and Center

Dan Short recordingWhile I was in Ojai recording the Dreamweaver 8 Beyond the Basics title for lynda.com there were some reports from the Ventura County Star writing an article on lynda.com. They wanted to take a few photos of someone doing a recording, and they ended up using a shot of me on the front page of the Business section of their February 15th article. See mom and dad, I really do do real work :). Click the image for a larger version.

CFDUMPing the Variables scope

Don't ask me why I never tried this before... I've always just done a <cfoutput>#myVar#</cfoutput> when I needed to find out what a local variable value was. This often meant scattering them all over my page to figure out what piece of code I got wrong... I finally decided I'd just try dumping the local variable scope, and wallah voila! I get a full dump of every local variable on the page, including queries, available functions, the whole bit. I don't know why I never tried that before...

<cfdump var="#Variables#" label="Local Variables" />
