Yeah, now out of the box ColdFusion 11 will only allow the inclusion of CFML and HTML files.

This is really pretty cool.Īdobe in their infinitesimal wisdom have decided to prevent this functionality by default. doc files, wherein the doc template is saved in XML format, and by including the file, runtime CFML expressions are processed into the resulting. I also know of one application that uses this to good effect generating dynamic. js files, executed on the browser via script tags. This is necessary sometimes to 'pass' server-homed data to JS code, before running the rest of the JS out of.

This is not an uncommon practice (more common with JS than CSS, that said), and a handy way of writing out JS at request time. That previous issue cropped up because I was trying to run my TestBox regression tests on ColdFusion 11, and somewhere under the hood TestBox includes (via ) some JS and CSS files. I'm writing it up separately here as it's a slightly different issue, worth discussion. This is a follow-on from my earlier article ' ColdFusion 11: first bug.
