Live Chat: Charter Communications Cable Provider

Below, I have pasted a conversation with a local cable service provider in Reno, NV.  I just thought it might be amusing to share my experience with the CF community.  Feel free to leave comments.  If you live in an area that has Charter Communications, I would advise you to not sign-up.  As you can see below; terrible customer service.

Flex: Custom Sort DataGrid Column

Recently, I had to sort a column of data based on a number wrapped in parethesis.  Fortunately, there was an extra column being passed back from ColdFusion query that made this task simple.  Using the sortCompareFunction, I was able to sort on a datagrid column using a different column from my query or array collection.  Hopefully this post will help someone out, because there seems to be a lack of information on subject.

CF Wheels ORM Fun!!!

Today I wanted to have some fun, so I decided to check out the CF Wheels Framework inspired by Ruby on Rails.  I've never used Ruby on Rails before, but this framework is pretty nice.  It took me all of about ten minutes to have a default page up and running + diplaying data from my model.  I wanted to demonstrate just how easy it is to populate tabular data using the framework.

Flex/Coldspring Error?

Over this past week, I started using Coldspring in an application that I have been building at work; I love the fact that I don't have to call create object in every function, and it should save me mountains of time once I become used to writing the coldspring config files.  However,  I ran into a small problem yesterday that I haven't been able to figure out.
