How to create a border type layout in ColdFusion

Introduction In Adobe ColdFusion, building dynamic web applications involves various tools that allow developers to create intuitive and user-friendly layouts. One such tool is the <cflayout> tag, which offers a way to structure content in different predefined layouts. Among these is the "border" layout, which organizes the page into distinct regions, commonly used in dashboard interfaces or web applications that require a consistent and well-organized structure. This article focuses on creating a border-type layout using ColdFusion’s <cflayout> tag, explaining how to define different regions like the top, left, center, and right sections within a flexible and responsive web page. A border layout allows developers to divide the webpage into multiple sections, each with a specific purpose, while ensuring a clean and structured presentation. This layout is useful for applications where navigation, main content, and auxiliary content need to be organized into diffe...

How to use cflayout type hbox with cflayoutarea n ColdFusion

Introduction ColdFusion, known for simplifying web application development, offers several built-in tags that streamline the creation of dynamic user interfaces. One such tag is <cflayout> , which allows developers to arrange content in various layouts. The hbox (horizontal box) layout type is particularly useful for displaying content side by side. In this tutorial, we explore how to use the cflayout tag with type="hbox" to create a clean and responsive horizontal layout, showcasing multiple images. The combination of cflayout and cflayoutarea helps in defining specific regions for content within a structured layout. The example we're examining demonstrates how to create an image gallery layout using ColdFusion, displaying a series of images in a horizontal format. Each image is wrapped inside a ColdFusion pod ( cfpod ), which is a container with a title and customizable dimensions. This tutorial will walk through the structure, key components, and functionalit...
