Hi Adobe Developer community! Welcome to Coding Corner - a new forum space where developers that use Adobe products can talk about best practices, ask questions, and connect - all without the constraints of a product-centric forum! Here's a quick little intro for those who are curious about what this forum will be all about:
Why did this forum come to be?
Adobe forums would be nothing without the constant engagement and passion of our extremely active creative community. The Coding Corner itself is the brainchild of the following experts who have also graciously volunteered to nourish this forum from its infancy. They were concerned with the lack of a space for Adobe users who developed across many different platforms, and thought that the creation of this space would help bring this community together. We thank all of them for their hard work in making this this space a reality.

On behalf of Adobe, we thank each one of them for their relentless endeavor in making our forums a better place for our users.
Who is this forum for? What questions will be asked here?
This forum is for all levels of developer focused questions. The kind of questions we will encourage will be in the areas of UI/UX, SPA, Web->App (Phonegap, etc), HTML*, CSS, Databases, Structure (XML, JSON, etc), Specification (HTTP, TCP, SSL, etc), Client (JavaScript, Frameworks, Flash, AIR, etc) and Server Side (PHP, ASP, etc) technologies and Services. While it is not limited to these areas, they are what make up the vast majority of development and most of them are used concurrently.
The unique aspect of this forum is all of the technologies mentioned have multiple Adobe products that can be used in their workflows. Users will no longer need to break questions up into their product-centric bits, posted over potentially multiple forums. A concise problem and answer can be posted and solved in this type of forum.
Adobe has already taken this approach for design, offering Design Forum. It has no development counterpart to enrich with product-agnostic discussions, questions and answers. These neutral discussions can produce high PR ranking content that developers are likely to find related to their searching, bringing even more users in.
How do I use Coding Corner so that I get the most out of it?
Since there are so many different kinds of questions that I can be asked in Coding Corner, we're relying on a "tagging" system to make sure that questions get seen and answered by the right people. On the main Coding Corner page, you'll see a list of "popular tags" that are focused around typical content that we expect to pop up in Coding Corner:
This system relies on our users to work together and be committed to making sure content is tagged appropriately!
So, what do I do now?
Now that this forum is live, we leave it in your hands to make it whatever you'd like it to be!
Thanks again for being apart of our thriving Adobe community of committed developers, and welcome to Coding Corner!

Am I honestly the only dinosaur that still uses 'print' over 'echo'?
This space is, as mentioned, obstacle free. Go on and challenge us thirsty full stack developers. I have some of my own questions I'll be posting here. Beware!
Most Important with a capital i, thank you to Adobe and the original 10 who agreed to assist, all variously educated, all top contributors, and all here of their own precious time to help!
So what's better, Mac or Windows or *nix? Red Sox? Patriots? Celtics? Bruins? Alright I'm NE USA biased, but this place, is not. Any subject, any product, development has your back!

Hi Adobe,
Thank you for creating this useful forum. I will help w/ Adobe ColdFusion questions as I have time.
1) Minor nit: "Server side" and "Client side" should actually be hyphenated "Server-side" and "Client-side". Please see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server-side and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client-side.
2) More importantly, "(PHP, ASP, etc)" should be "(ColdFusion, PHP, ASP, etc)". Adobe should always promote its own products.
3) Most importantly, please include #ColdFusion under "Popular Tags" since #PHP was included.
Thanks!,
-Aaron

Hi Aaron,
Welcome to the Coding Corner.
Can I ask which IDE do you use for your CF projects?

Welcome Aaron!
On the things you brought up, a couple things to consider.
This forum is entirely product agnostic. Adobe, generously, offered their prime real-estate to promote what is by far the most widely used. I think that speaks worlds of them. Enterprise (many fortune 500) uses a Microsoft stack (ASP/.NET/MVC) and the overwhelming vast majority otherwise uses PHP. There are only 12 spots on the front page to recommend for primary tags so it needs to strictly cover the industry.
The list will always evolve. Expect suggestions such as your own as well as the questions fielded here will influence the top tags.
Glad to have your help here!

This is interesting but I do not see Acrobat JavaScript supported. Is this because it is a different flavor of JavaScript and does not work well with other Adobe products.
I got to this forum by someone transferring a very specific Acrobat JavaScript question bout percentage calculations to this forum.
