I came up with a code sample to parse RSS with CFMX today based on a question about CFMX XML functions on my local CFUG mailing list. It should do ok with RSS 2.0, and 0.91, and also well formed RSS 0.92. It won't work with RSS 1.0.

A recent thread on CF-Talk asked if anyone had documentation for the RDS protocol, or if anyone had tried to crack it. RDS works over http, so its possible to just use a protocol analizer to capture the communication between CF Studio, or Dreamweaver and the ColdFusion server.

Jochem van Dieten has a good resource on the PostgreSQL for ColdFusion developers. It has things such as queries to list tables, DDL for creating client varaible storage tables, and other tips and tricks. Check it out if you haven't played with PostgreSQL or even if you have.
