I don't know why you might have 2 methods in your onerror.cfm. What I did was in CFWheels 1.0, and there have been a couple of important updates since then. The best thing is to ask the CFWheels Google Group at http://cfwheels.org/community Good Luck! @George Murphy

Nice one. A quick question…

Where would you store this code? Would you create a page with a layout… and the layout will have this code?

Or is there another way?

The trick is: Don't customize the Default site. Instead, create a new site in the Mura admin and customize it. In the blog post, I mentioned creating a site called MySite for this very reason. Mura uses eventHandler.cfc in the MySite/Includes folder, so the file won't get overwritten. Of course, if Mura fixes a bug, it also won't get updated. But, normally, this isn't a problem.

I just saved a copy of dsp_mailing_list_master.cfm into the custom folder, and Mura (5.2) detected and rendered that one instead of the original. So it seems that any code in the custom folder is run instead of the original code? Huh. Do you know why that is? Thanks. Wait a second!

I'm having fun learning about Mura. Won't an upgrade to Mura overwrite your custom code in the eventHandler.cfc file and cause your system to revert to the use of your original gallery? Thanks.

As impressive as CFWheels and its documentation have become, I still didn't realize how powerful CFWheels can be. It took me a while to figure out how to use ColdFusion custom tags effectively. But, on the Wheels side, every time I need a piece of data or a function to access the data, it was already there for me. Its like CFWheels knew what I was going to want before I did. Amazing!

If you want the server to do something more like retrieve information from a database or do some processing, you need an application server. Fortunately, application servers have become very common and most people just assume that any web server has an application server built in. PHP, Ruby on Rails, ColdFusion, .Net, J2EE -- These are all types of application servers. You mentioned plugins. Well, a plugin is just a piece of code that runs in an application server. Without the application server, there wouldn't be anything that could run the plugin's code. Javascript lets you script or program the browser, so it's really not part of the server. I hope this helps. The important thing to understand is that a pure web server ONLY grabs files and sends them along to the browser.
