Getting Started with ColdFusion Builder

My ColdFusion Builder journey has begun. I am used to working in Dreamweaver, and already there are two things that I miss:

  1. I wish that I could set up a project, give it a URL, and then hit the files in the preview browsers. I don’t like that I have to configure a server. Because of our server setup, this is not convenient. I even went through the trouble of setting one up, but CF Builder doesn’t recognize it when I try to add it to the project, which is odd since it knows it is there and running.
  2. I wish I could Find/Replace in the file system, like I can in Dreamweaver. CF Builder only provides Find and Replace functionality within a file.

I know that I am just getting started and I need to give it some time.

CKEditor

I just had my first experience with installing and configuring CKEditor, formerly FCKEditor. I have used it many times, but this was the first time that I added to a site that I am working on. It was really easy to add and to customize.

I did have to do a little digging around at first, because I didn’t realize that they had changed the name.  I liked the old name.
