Hello and welcome to my site. This is primarily a portfolio of my work. I currently employed at Hampton University as their Web applications developer using ColdFusion.
My original intention was to display my professional work here. I was going to copy my code and the database from the University’s site and publish here after deleting all of the data from the database. I would then to allow the public to enter their own information via the forms and see the result just as the staff would at HU. Then, after their session ended, I would have a special script that would clear the database.
I prefer to use OOP, so my code is filled with objects and because of this, there's a problem. This site is being hosted by DailyRazor, which is a shared, public, ColdFusion server, and therefore the cfobject tag has been disabled due to security reasons. This seems to be the case with all of the rest of the CF shared servers that I found on the web.
My code is just too integrated with property references and method calls to do a simple find and replace and I can't see just using cfincludes and cfinvokes, which, to me, seems to defeat the advantages of OOP. So much for showing examples of my ColdFusion work from HU. While my work is accessible on their website, there's not much to look at. Most of what I do for them is "behind the scenes" and only the end result can be seen by the general public. Regardless, here's some links to the HU website where my work can been seen by the public:
-
About halfway down on the home page, you'll see events. These are submitted by staff members at the University by first logging on to a web application and then filling out a form. A small text editor is used that automatically converts the formatting into HTML for display on the page. The news items are dated and stored in a database for future reference.

www.hamptonu.edu/studentservices/admissions/tours (click on the link: complete our online reservation form)
You can click on one of the calendar dates and fill out and submit the next form, but please don't submit the form after that unless you actually want to schedule a tour of the University!
The information from the first and second forms are stored on a database. The reason for this is as follows: if the number of people in your party (the number attending) is greater than the remaining seats, or is too large for the selected tour, an error message will appear, asking you to select another date. This way, the user doesn't have to fill out the next form until they select the proper tour, or one with enough remaining seats.
