A Simple Refactoring

Yesterday, I was required to create some Javascript functionalities using Prototype. It’s nothing out of ordinary, I was to create a page with 3 radio buttons and 1 select, depending on which button selected – the select will be enabled/disabled.

Well I thought this was going to be an easy process, but it turned out to be little bit trickier than I thought. Apparently there are a couple of ways to get ColdBox SES (Search Engine ) URL to work.

About

About me

Hullo, my name is Felix Tjandrawibawa (try to pronounce that!), I live in beautiful city Sydney, Australia.

I am a (self proclaimed) passionate developer, at the moment primarily passionate about cutting codes in ColdFusion (CFML) and jQuery – starting to get into Ruby on Rails and JSP/Servlets lately.

I started work professionally as web developer back in 2006 but I have been programming a long time. I can still remember in my teenage years writing (more like typing/copying from computer magazines) QBASIC and Turbo Pascal codes.

At the moment I am working as a ColdFusion contractor for one of leading web agencies in Sydney as well as working on few projects under Passionate Development.

About this blog

Some of the reasons that I blog:

  1. I am hoping that I can help some poor souls out there who might face problems that have been solved by me or by someone else that I quote.
  2. I blog for my own benefit, to help me keep resources and to help me improve my writing skills.
  3. I am hoping that I can somewhat inspire passion to all developers that read this blog – as I have been inspired by so many bloggers especially from the ColdFusion realm (such as Ben Nadel).
  4. I am also interested in internet start ups (got few ideas already) – I am hoping to somehow connect with like minded people through this media. If this is you, please feel free to contact me using the contact form or Twitter.
