In the new ColdFusion 7.0.1 update (Merimack), there is a new way to define functions rather than using cfsavecontent. Read about it here:

New Flash Form Feature #1

cfformitem type="script"

Today is pretty much full of sessions and hands-on training.  There are no general sessions scheduled for today.

I am looking forward to the CFMX7 Application Framework session by Ray Camden. He will be going into detail on what application.cfc can do.

Overall, I had a great time at Macromedia MAX 2005 and am already looking forward to next years MAX!!!

The second day at MAX went really well. I focused on Flex and ColdFusion sessions and boy did i learn alot.

What I was really looking forward to on this day was the Sneak Peeks session. I was really impressed with what i saw. Jen deHaan from Macromedia did an outstanding job in documenting what was shown at the session. You can view what she said at her blog.

Today is the first day of MAX for general sessions, but the 2nd day if you attended the pre-conference classes. I took more Flex classes this morning and taking some ColdFusion classes this afternoon.

There was alot of good information in today's General Session. There were live demos of Flex Builder 2 as well as Flex Enterprise. I'm impressed!

Macromedia also announced a new site, Macromedia Labs. This new site will host all the new products Macromedia is currently working on as well as give you the chance to download the Alpha or Beta versions, if available. Flex Builder 2 Alpha is now available for download...

Well, its finally here... Macromedia MAX 2005! Today is just all day hands-on training. I am taking Building Rich Internet Applications With Flex. The main convention starts tomorrow. I'll be posting periodically with updates!!!

I have also started uploading photos from MAX 2005 to my Shutterbook account. You can check those pics out here!

Update: Shuterbook is gone...
