I used cfwindow as follow :

<cfwindow 

name="conseils"

title="Conseils pour votre annonce"

height="220"

width="500" 

headerstyle="background-color:e0f0ff; font-size:large; font-weight:normal; color:004080"

bodystyle="background-color:f5ffff;"

initshow="True"

center="true"

closable="true"> 

  <font color="003080" size="3" style="font-family:arial">

  <strong>Avant de valider votre annonce,</strong><br>

  Préparer minutieusement votre texte de description,<br>

  Soyez assez prècis et détaillé dans la description,<br>

  Assurez que vos photos soient bien représentatives.<br><br>

  Plus vous soignerez votre annonce, plus vous aurez de visites,<br>

  Donc plus vite vous vous débarasserez de ce qui vous encombre.

  <br><br>

</cfwindow>

On my local system CF8 I get the right draggable panel.

On production CF9 , I do not have it, it is relative positionned above the rest.

I do not have any idea why ????

With this behaviour, I will never use it . So much time lost.

Thanks for any suggestion.

Pierre

There is an article in Raymond Camden's blog, showing how cfwindow breaks in CF9. The bug was reported and has apparently been fixed.

You have 2 options. Either upgrade to CF9.0.1 and apply the most recent hot fixes, or upgrade to CF9.0.2.

You should realize the latter option is quite involved. The CF9.0.2 release notes say, "This Updater release is a follow-up of ColdFusion 9 Update 1 release. However, note that, unlike ColdFusion 9.0 Update 1, ColdFusion 9.0 Update 2 is a full installer. Hence, do not install ColdFusion 9.0.2 alongside an existing ColdFusion 9.0 or ColdFusion 9.0.1 installation.

ColdFusion 9.0.2 update is a summation of ColdFusion 9.0.1, ColdFusion 9.0.1 Cumulative HotFixes 1 & 2, all ColdFusion 9.0.1 Security HotFixes, but without Verity."

Thanks, but procedure to upgrade to 9.0.1 is crazy,

I am really afraid in doing it.

And is that the same files for 32bits ot 64bits ?

I am under 64bits under production.

I cannot risk to break CF only to get CFwindow working.

Thanks for any suggestion.

I did this upgrade on a local server Windows 7 and CF9 32bits.

The procedure is really crazy, do not know what will happen.

Then I restarted CF9,

seems to run,  Applications are running,

BUT, I cannot get to the CF admin:

root/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm gives a 500 error number

No access anymore to the CF admin.

So now, I cannot manage CF9 in local, what to do ?

i am in a mess.

Too dangerous to risk this under production.

Pierre.
