CFBloggy - growing pains

Posted in CFBloggy | Jun 06, 2007 9:30:PM |

So little by little I've been working on the beta release of CFBloggy. With all the testing and rewriting of code it's coming along. One problem I have is my blog is running what most would call the Frankenstein version. I setup my blog to catch all errors and email them to me, need to keep the server admin happy. So I would say I get 1 to 2 bad errors every week. I go though them and find solutions and reasons why it happened. I also make sure the current version of CFB had the update, most of the time it did.

One thing I'm doing is going through and making sure all my variables are named properly. I will admit when I started writing CF code I used alot of var1 and var2, while at the time I knew what it ment but now that CFB will be released I can't though people in the pool with no life jacket. I want to be sure that users will be able to update, edit, and possibly help fix CFB.

One big thing I walked away with from Ray Camden's contest is variable validation. I write about it cause today I got a nasty error because I didn't validate a url variable.
