If that’s the case then instead of: http.get({ host: “www.google.com”, path: “/”, port: 80, method: “GET” }, function(res) { … }); do: http.get({ host: "proxy.url.com", // <- no protocol path: "http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy-ab&hl=en&safe=off&q=node.js&pbx=1", port: 8080, // <- your proxy port method: "GET", headers: { Host: "www.google.com" } }, function(res2) { … }); This will send your request [...]
Coming from a Flex background I can’t imagine working with XML and not having e4x available. As you most likely know ColdFusion doesn’t have support for this fantastic notation. It has it’s own, clunky syntax for accessing XML elements within the document and an XmlSearch() function to query the document with XPath. I used to [...]
There’s a new boy in the town – AppEmbassy Ltd.
For the ICS application we are using ColdFusion 9. For quite a while we had a major problem. Our CF server kept crashing at least once a day without any warning.

It has been a long time since I last blogged anything here. There was a lot going on over last year. There’s been this massive project I was working on, ColdFusion, Flex, .NET, Java, Microsoft SQL Server 2008, moving away from green screen application and even some real time data synchronisation between two different geo [...]
In one of my recent Silverlight projects I had to use a ViewStack control. There is few of these already available here and there but I thought it might be fun to build new one from scratch. As image speaks more than words here is the sample. And here is the source code. Hope this [...]
I’m sure everyone who’s interested in Flex Builder for Linux already knows that by following Twitter and Adobe JIRA. So what’s exactly happened? Today, just 5 days before Flex Builder alpha 4 was to expire Adobe released an alpha 5 update on labs.adobe.com which is going to expire in 401 days. I have the gut [...]
This week at PDC09 Microsoft unveiled latest Silverlight release – first beta of version 4. One of the new features is printing support. There is a great video introduction to printing published by Tim Heuer. It show the basics, after watching it my first question was how to print the data on multiple pages. Here [...]
It took me a while to figure out how to install Apple Built-in iSight driver so it could be used in Windows 7 x64 running inside VMWare Fusion. I have finally found a solution here. Installing the drivers: run cmd.exe as Administrator D: (or whatever the drive letter of mounted CD is) cd "Boot Camp\Drivers\Apple" [...]
