4.3.6 CFCONTENT

BlueDragon does not support using a pair of CFCONTENT tags, as in:

<CFCONTENT…>some data</CFCONTENT>. In BlueDragon, only the opening CFCONTENT

tag is supported.

4.3.7 CFDUMP

BlueDragon currently ignores the

EXPAND and LABEL attributes available in ColdFusion.

4.3.8 CFERROR

In ColdFusion, when a CFERROR uses TYPE=”Request”, the page can list variables in the

Error scope without need of a CFOUTPUT. BlueDragon does not recognize or output those

variables; instead, you must wrap them in CFOUTPUT tags. The use of CFOUTPUT tag is

compatible with ColdFusion, as the

CFOUTPUT tags will simply be sent to the browser by

ColdFusion, where they are ignored.

4.3.9 CFEXECUTE

BlueDragon does not support the

Variable attribute, which was added in CFMX 6.1.

4.3.10 CFFUNCTION

BlueDragon does not support the

Roles attribute.

BlueDragon does not support the

OUTPUT=”yes” in the same manner as ColdFusion.

With this feature, meaningful only in the context of a CFC method, ColdFusion acts as if

CFOUTPUT is implied within the method, and free-standing expressions are evaluated

and displayed even though they’re not surrounded by

CFOUTPUT tags. BlueDragon does

not offer this behavior and therefore if OUTPUT=”yes”, which is the default, you must add

CFOUTPUT tags in the method around free-standing expressions to cause them to be evalu-

ated and displayed.

4.3.11 CFGRAPH

BlueDragon only supports creating graphs in JPEG format; it does not support GIF or

Flash formats. Therefore, the only valid value for the

fileFormat attribute is “JPG”; if

any other value is assigned to this attribute an error will be generated by BlueDragon.

4.3.12 CFHTTP

BlueDragon also does not support the specification of https as the protocol in CFHTTP’s

url attribute.

Also, BlueDragon does not support the following new attributes added in CFMX:

firstRowAsHeaders and charset, nor those added in CFMX 6.1: multipart,

getasbinary, proxyuser, and proxypassword attributes, nor does it support the new

values for

method: head, put, delete, options, and trace. It also does not support

the new variables in the

CFHTTP structure (which is provided after a CFHTTP operation):

charset, errorDetail, and text.
