DEVELOPING COLDFUSION 9 APPLICATIONS
Requesting and Presenting Information
Programming effectively
The following recommendations help improve or customize your ColdFusion Ajax application.
• Use the AjaxOnLoad function, which specifies a JavaScript function to run when the page loads, to perform any
initialization actions that are required for a page to function properly. Use the
functions when a page is loaded in a container tag. One use for this function could be on a page that pops up a login
window if the user is not already logged in when it displays. You can use the
JavaScript function that determines the login status and pops up the window only if necessary.
• Use the following ColdFusion JavaScript functions to access the Ext JS or Yahoo YUI JavaScript library objects that
underlie border and tab style
controls. Then use the raw object to modify the displayed control.
• ColdFusion.Layout.getBorderLayout
• ColdFusion.Grid.getGridObject
• ColdFusion.Layout.getTabLayout
• ColdFusion.Tree.getTreeObject
• ColdFusion.Window.getWindowObject
For documentation on the objects and how to manage them, see the Ext documentation at
